Ob ectives and activities
Summary of the (l)
objects of
Integrate Youth for
Christ as set out in
our Constitution
To advance the Christian faith for the benefit of young people in accordance with the statement
of faith and to demonstrate, promote and encourage Christian values, including dignity,
empowerment and partnership to all young people throughout the world and in particular (but
without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) in North Suffolk and South Norfolk and its
environs;
(2) the advancement of the Christian faith mainly, but not exclusively by means of proclaiming
Christian messages of an evangelistic and teaching nature throughout the world and in particular
(but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) in North Suffolk and South Norfolk and
its environs;
(3) the advancement of the education of children and young people through support and mentoring
in schools, colleges and other educational establishments, through lunchtime and after school
clubs, street based youth work and other youth provision to develop their physical, mental and
spiritual capacities, that they may grow to full maturity as individuals, and that their condition of
life may be improved;
During the early part of the past year, this object was affected by the Covid-19 pandemic but
since September 2021 our (]ctivities have gradually returned to normal and ultimately this object
has been largely met.
(4) to relieve poverty and sickness thereby demonstrating the Christian faith by promoting overseas
service, education, practical action and working with those affected, either directly or through
relevant relief agencies.
Summary of the As trustees we consider the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit and support the Centre
main activities Director in developing the role of Integrate Youth for Christ in the communities in which we work.
undertaken for the more21ife lunchtime clubs in Diss, Harleston, and Thetford Academy High Schools benefit young people
public benefit in by providing the opportunity for them to explore issues of interest to them and thereby developing
relation to these their confidence, social skills and knowledge. It also serves the wider school community by providing a
objects
place for those who are challenged by their home environment to share how they are feeling in non-
aggressive ways.
The Banham Youth café in conjunction with local churches and community seek to serve the population
and environs of Banham by reducing evening disturbance. The Diss Youth Café, the after school club in
Burston and Pulse in Thetford have served those localities by providing places for activities and
recreation for local high school children without the need for travel.
th
Mentoring 6 formers at Diss High School supports individual students in many anxious situations and
alleviates pressure on staff and the wider school body.
The Chaplaincy project which started in September 2021 and supports students in the Primary schools
and High school of St Benets Academic Trust to relieve the anxiety of students, support staff and aids
transitions from primary to high school.
Contribution made We continue to be indebted to our volunteers (including the trustees) for their ongoing support. The
by volunteers
success of our activities relies on them as they help us at weekly lunchtime clubs, term time weekly
Youth cafés, annual camp, and events. We are very grateful to them for their help.

Trustees, Annual Report for the Period
31" March 2022- 31" March 2023
Summary of the 2022-2023 has been a year of developing new work such as the Chaplaincy Project
main achievements and consolidating activities that restarted after the Covid pandemic. The trustees
of the charity during
continue to be grateful to Steph, Amy and Merja for the brilliant work they do across
the reporting period
so many differing situations. It was sad to see Helen leave us during the year and a
delight to see Stuart take on the admin role.
More21ife lunchtime clubs
After a return to 'live action, clubs last year, these have continued to develop during
2022/2023.
Sadly we have not yet been able to restart lunchtime clubs in Old Buckenham or Long
Stratton, due mainly to a lack of volunteers to give us adequate coverage for the club.
Harleston, Diss and Thetford have all gained momentum this year as well as generally
increased numbers.
We have also been able to start two lunchtime clubs in Harleston Academy Primary
and Diss Juniors as part of the Chaplaincy project.
Youth Cafés
All four of our Youth cafes are running but it has been an area of challenge for us this
year. Our greatest obstacle has been the recruitment of consistent long term
volunteers. However, the team have manfully persevered and in Banham we have
seen the first signs of better times ahead.
Diss Hi
h School 6th Form Informal Mentorin
& I:1 Mentorin
Our 6th Form Mentoring continues to be welcomed by Diss High school and is working
well. We have continued to mentor a couple of students on a I:1 basis
Encounter
Last year we reported smaller numbers at the newly revived live 'Encounter' event.
This year I can report numbers just about back to pre-covid levels and the event is a
time of fun and laughter, worship and a message. Orlando Castro has 'built' a band
that leads us, and is also building another one in Fressingfield- thank you Orlando.
Assemblies
We have presented assemblies this year in Harleston Sancroft Academy, Dickleburgh
Primary, Garboldisham primary, Bishops High school in Thetford.
Pra
ers
ace
We once again provided a Prayer Space but this year it was in the High School at Long
Stratton in December. This was extremely well received and a teacher said
'Feedback from students was overwhelmingly positive. They like the time to think
about things that they don't usually get to consider in school and liked the
atmosphere you created." A student said "The best activity I've done since starting
high school"
Cha
lainc
Our Chaplaincy to St. Benets multi academy trust continues apace with a real sense of
growing trust. There will be challenges ahead around funding and the expansion of
the trust and their desire to deliver chaplaincy across all their schools.
Pra
Integrate Youth for Christ started in prayer meetings and we still strive to keep prayer
at the root of all we do. Our half termly Prayer meetings at the Methodist church are
reasonably well attended. Our Prayer walks are usually less well attended but do give
us the chance to pray for the areas that we work in. Always feel free to join us.

Wow, what a camp we had in Summer 2022. We had a wonderful time with a
tremendous sense of team amongst the leaders. Our feedback forms were
overwhelmingly positive with the only grumbles about spiders! ! ! And not enough
washing up bowls.
Best of all, three young people committed their lives to Jesus and many more
responded during the response times.
It was a fantastic week.
