**Contribution made by volunteers** Para 1.38 

Llandudno Youth for Christ relies on volunteers to ensure the smooth operation of the work within the North West Wales area.  Volunteers take part in a wide range of activities from serving on the board of trustees to serving cakes at Reverb Café.  There are volunteer youth leaders, both online and in person, in schools and in our own Centre.  Volunteers attend events and assist in mentorship of our young people.

**Achievements and Performance** SORP reference **Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the** Para 1.20 **charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole.** _Llandudno Youth for Christ Trustees and Centre Staff have taken the Charity Commission’s Public Benefit Guidance into account when considering the different activities undertaken to achieve its objectives._ Llandudno Youth for Christ relies on volunteers to ensure the smooth operation of the work within the North West Wales area. Volunteers take part in a wide range of activities from serving on the board of trustees to serving cakes at Reverb Café. There are volunteer youth leaders, both online and in person, in schools and in our own Centre. Volunteers attend events and assist in mentorship of our young people. The year 2024-25 began in settled fashion with the continuing work of our regular activities and plans to expand the number of one-off events. **Redefine** , our bi-weekly youth group held at the Garage, has seen a small number of departures only to be replaced by equal numbers of new attendees and one young person has been Baptised. Overall attendance continues to range from 8-15. They have followed a programme of studying Mark’s Gospel, Philippians, and Wisdom Literature, which has been well received though there is a need for another volunteer leader. **Recess** continues to thrive with a number of young people returning who had been absent for a while. There was a problem with food ‘disappearing’ but there seemed little real need for refreshments, so the practice was stopped. They began a new series on ‘The armour of God’ with a new, additional leader settling in well. Unfortunately, the meeting clashes with other regular events so the timing and venue needs to be reviewed. **Schools Work** , was very successful throughout the year, delivering full weeks of assemblies several times for two local secondary schools, and providing additional support in the forms of lessons and meetings with senior staff. **Show Up and Write** , our online writing project which uses the Zoom platform, continued with 4 regular members under the leadership of Katie Gough although it was placed on temporary hold while a new time could be found. **One off events** are obviously experimental in seeking to find activities which appeal. One had to be cancelled because of lack of interest but there was a successful Monopoly Tournament, nerf war, movie night, dry ski slope and toboggan event on the Orme and summer ‘camp’.

**Staff Worker** Karen, has been a great addition to the team. She attended a National Youth for Christ focus day in Leeds and was pleased to hear Llandudno Youth for Christ commended for its work in reaching a broad range of people, from the unchurched to church families, due to the different projects and contacts ongoing. She has worked hard on strengthening the links with local churches. Karen also attended a meeting to explore working alongside ‘Message Wales’ but, for the moment, there are no further developments. Unfortunately, for personal reasons, Karen had to leave towards the end of the year. 

**The Garage** is now being used by youth groups from individual churches as it is an excellent space, designed for youth activities. There were a few teething problems with the building regarding cleaning, the replacement of a window and repairs to lights but these have all been sorted. 

**Council of Reference** serves as a ‘sounding board’ for the Centre Director and Trustees and has been strengthened numerically over the year. This helps with vision, direction and feeds in new ideas. 

**Trustees** have continued to meet regularly, organised a very successful AGM at a local church which helps in the attempts to advertise the work around local churches. We have launched the idea of Church Champions who will keep the work of Llandudno YFC on the agenda and prayer list of all local churches. The Internal Controls Policy has now been addressed and updated. The search continues for additional trustees to strengthen this group. 

**Reverb Café** continues to be the biggest source of income for the charity, taking place twice a month on Saturdays, and continues to grow. There is a constant need for more volunteers, but the work thrives. 

**Safeguarding,** there was a serious incident involving someone with connections to Youth for Christ locally but not directly affecting our work. The Centre Director notified all the relevant authorities and followed the correct procedures. The trustees fully reviewed this process afterwards and reported it to the Charity Commission; both were satisfied that the issue had been handled well. The matter has been dealt with and has not impacted our work. The Chair of Trustees has stepped in to become the new safeguarding officer.

## **Potential for conflict of interest arising from our move to The Garage.** 

The trustees for Llandudno Youth for Christ are mindful that our move to The Garage, managed by Gloddaeth Church, has the potential for conflicts of interest to arise for members of Gloddaeth Church who also serve on the Board of Trustees. Neither Tim Gough (Centre Director), nor Tracey Lloyd (Chair) are members of Gloddaeth and are committed to protecting the interests of Llandudno Youth for Christ by ensuring that any trustees with a potential conflict of interest recuse themselves from voting on issues where that conflict may reasonably be expected to occur.  Should any issues or disagreements arise between members of Gloddaeth Church and persons carrying out work for Llandudno Youth for Christ whilst at The Garage, Tracey Lloyd will act as a mediator in the first instance.  Should further issues arise we have mediation options available through both the Presbyterian Church of Wales (who own the building), and National Youth for Christ. Should third party mediation be needed beyond this, we will seek help from the Evangelical Alliance, of which all groups are members.

Regular monthly income as at 31st March 2025 = £3,566.41 an **INCREASE OF £156.87** : 

1. Gift Aided = £1,632 from 49 individuals, a **DECREASE OF £23** 

a) 2 individuals ended (1 died, 1 unknown why), 1 reduced 

b) 1 new individual 

2. Non Gift Aided = £ 739.85 from 3 churches & 12 individuals, a **DECREASE OF £1.49** 

a) 3 individuals ended (1 died, 1 moved away, 1 unknown why) 

b) 1 new individual, 1 increased 

3. Reverb Café = £1,194.56, an **INCREASE OF £181.36** on average 

The overall increase of £156.87 in monthly giving is really encouraging but this is entirely due to the hard work of the Reverb Café volunteers who are now providing 33% of our regular income on average. We need more adult volunteers though, to avoid overworking those we already have! 

Meanwhile, giving from individuals has unfortunately decreased.

## **Notes:** 

1. Many costs reduced due to the Centre Director’s illness, whilst having no p/t employee 

2. We haven’t yet spent the £2k grant restricted for use on a horsebox (mobile mission work) 3. Future legacy income could be promoted to improve long-term financial security
