A letter from the chair of trustees l am happy lo present my Chairfs report for Blue Smile for the year ended 31 July 2024. Blue Smile conlinues to offer vital support for primary age children at a time when the mental heallh of children and young people is a matter of rising concern. Our aim is to provide an accessible service to address the needs of as many children as possible. We aim to ensure that what we do is effective and robustly evid8nce-based and continue to be al the forefront of best practice in the field. This year we have invested more in psychoeducational groups for children. this has yielded promising results and useful data which is enablin9 US to refine our offer. Groupwork runs alongside our one-to-one work, which remains a tried and tested core service for schools across Cambridgeshire. We continue to invest in our 'whole school, philosophy, supporting the whole school community In a variety of ways, tailored lo need, in our nine Partner Schools. We have continued to hold at the same rate Ihe financial contribution schools make towards our services, given pressures on school budgets. As our costs have risen with inflation and for other reasons, this has meant that we have increased the charitable subsidy through fundraised income. We have also offered some flexibility e.g. offering a smaller Partner School service in one school for a smaller contribution and temporarily increasing the charitable contribulion in exceptional circumstsnces for one school. We have continued to gradually expand Olfrr reach this year. We have provided one-to-one therapy for 266 childreri, as compared to 255 last year and 232 the year before, and we have supported 158 children through psychoeducational groups, as compared to 153 and 59 respectively last year and the year before that. Blue Smile's charitable objectives focus particulady on those children facing disadvantage. This year 520/. of the children we worked with were eli9ible for free school meals and 49 % were on the school Special Educational Needs Register. We continue to focus on schools and children who most need our help and whose families may nol have the means to access help elsewhere. This year we have adjusted our model to follow the evidence about the number of sessions which yields best results for children. We now offer one-to-one work on the basis of 20 weekly sessions, though this can be flexed if necessary to reflect Ihe needs of an individual child. We are commilled lo continuing to build and refine our evaluation and evidence base. This year we worked with 9 Partner Schools and 28 other schools. W8 hav8 made good use of our now embedded cloud-based system for holding and managing data to ensure data is accurate and up to date, that any safeguarding issues can be fully and securely recorded and reviewed and that we are evaluating and reviewing all the services we provide as we go along. We adopted a new Strategy in the 2023124 year as our previous Stralegy came to a c105e in 2023. Our current Strategy focuses on four strategic aims= Deliver and Grow. Data and Impacl.. Our People and Our Organisalion.
Blue Smile Project Company Limited by Guarantee Trustees, annual report (corttinu8d) Year ended 31 July 2024 Clinical quality and effecliveness, and best safeguarding practice, remain at the heart of what we do. These issues are regularly on the agenda for Board meetings as well as the focus of meetings of the Clinical and Ethics Group, which reports into 8oard. Day to day, clinical and safeguarding issues are regularly reviewed and discussed by the Director and Clinical Services Manager. Safeguarding was the core theme of our Blue Smile Day which all staff, therapists, volunteers and Trustees are strongly encouraged to attend. and the Day involved some excellent training and talks for the whole team on different aspects of safeguarding. l am graleful both to Carrie-Ann Black, our lead Safeguarding Trustee till Jan 2024, and lo Angela McKeown, who ably stepped up lo fi51 this role until a new Safeguarding Trustee, Karen Glisson, joined the Board in th8 24125 year. We are extremely grateful to all those individuals. companies, community groups, trusts and foundations who have generously supported our work this year. I want to particularly thank our wonderfLJI Friends of Blue Smile, who remain tireless in their support, and lo pay special tribute to the late Dr Hassan Shakir- Khalil and his wife Anna who left us a very generous legacy this year. We are extremely grateful to Dr and Mrs Shakir-Khalil's family for supporting us lo tell others about this legacy and about the lasting impact il will have for Blue Smile and in the lives of the children we support. Naomi Mallick- Chair of the Board of Trustees A letter from the Charity Director We began 23124 with a review our strategy and plan, to ensure that we are fit for purpose for the next three years. Our mission to Iransform the menlal health and life chances of children across Cambridgeshire is underpinned by our four strategic aims-. To reach more children wilh the right support at the right tim8, by delivering and growing an excellent mental health Service ' To enhance understanding of children's mental health and practice, by focusing on data and evidence, to support collaboration and innovation ' To build a diverse and inclusive community of staff, therapists, trainee therapists and volunteers, who are empowered lo support children and young people ' To strenglhen our organisational services, in order to have impact now and in the future Throughout the year, we have focused on delivering excellent services both one-toryone arts-based therapy and psychoeducational groupwork. We have worked in 37 Cambridgeshire schools and supported over 420 children. Nine Partner Schools received a holistic package of support whilst, al other schools, we delivered one-to-one therapy. groupwork. or teacher mentoring, depending on need. In total, we supported 266 children via one-to-one thèrapy. While mental health challenges can happen to any child, those from disadvantaged backgrounds are at much greater risk and face more barriers to access support. Children with special educational needs or disabilities are also more likely lo experience anxiely, depression or low self-esteem than their peers. Of the children we supported last year. 52 /0 were eligible for Pupil Premium. indicating economic disadvantage (national average= 24Q/ol and 49 /D of children on the Special Educational Needs register (national average: 14Q/o). The average age when starting therapy was 8 years, showing our commilmenl to early intervention. Many children we support have been through highly stressful or traurnatic experfences in their young lives or "adverse childhood experiences" {ACEs)- Those most reported were parental separation, domestic abuse, family mental i1Sness and bereavement. 5910 children accessing Blue Smile therapy were facing more than one adverse childhood experlence {ACE}, whilst 180/0 had experienced four or more ACES. Outcomes for children remain consistently positive, with 90Yo of children. 870/0 of parents and 90/0 of teachers reporting children had improved on their identified goa15 because of Blue Smile's support.
Blue Smile Project Company Limited by Guarantee Trustees. annual report (¢onllnu•d) Year ended 31 July 2024 Blue Smile also collects data on the wider impact of our work, Including children's willingness to engage in school life. For children who initially scored low la score 5 or less oul of 10), teachers reported 72 % showed increased willingness lo engage following therapy. We continued to focus on expanding our provision of early intervention groupwork to reach more children. We were able lo offer 24 groups, across five different themes. supporting over 150 children. This included the successful delivery of a pilot program "Worry Warriors" to support children at primary school experiencing anxiety. Children attending this group showed decreased anxiety and an increase in coping skills. Blue Smile look key decisions during 23124 that will enable us to scale up our service, reach more children, and keeping waiting times down. We adopted a 20-week model of therapy, which our clinical data shows is the optimum time lo ensure that a child can make good progress on their goals. allowing us to provide long-term support to more children. We increased therapist5 pay significantly, lo better reflect the skills, qualifications and experience we require 2nd address recruitment and retention challenges. We also launched Charitylog, a clinical record management system, that will allow us to manage clinical data safely and efficiently, enabling dats-driven decision making and clear, real-time understanding of clinical need, lo that we can mainlain the highest possible quality of support for children. Looking forward to 2025, Blue Smile will mark 15 years since its foundation. During that timè, over 3000 children have been able to enjoy happier childhoods and build brighter futures thanks lo speciallsl mental health support by Blue Smile therapists in Cambridgeshire schools. This birthday year provides an occasion to celebrate what has been achieved and thank people who have played a significant role in Blue Smile'5 development, but it will also be an irnportant opportunity to highlight the continued and growing need for children's mental health services and galvanise support for the coming years. With NHS figures showing that 1 in 5 children is currently experiencing significant mental health difficulties lup from 1 in 10 when we started). sadly Blue Smile's work is needed more than ever.

Blue Smile Project Company Limited by Guarantee Trustees. annual report (¢ontintséd) Year ended 31 July 2024 Achievement5 and perfonr*an¢e Providing a clinical service in Partner Schools Blue Smile provides arts-based therapy and mentoring in Partner Schools in Cambriiige to children aged 3- 13. A Blue Smile team, led by our School Clinical Lead for that school, goes into each Partner School on the school's 'Blue Smile Day, each week in term time.Partner Schools also act as our training and development hubs, providing clinical placements for trainee therapists. We provide intensive one-to-one, long-term therapy (generally weekly in term-time for 20 weeks) for 12-16 children per week in each Partner School. In addition, we provide support for the whole school in the form of an offer tailored to each school including assemblies. psychoeducational groups for children, advice for parents, and formal and informal support for school staff. Blue Smile offers a 'whole family, and 'whole school, approach in our Partner Schools, responsive to feedback and information from our referrals data. Where children need SUPPDrt, it is regu18rly the case that parents and carers may also need support. whether with their own mental health or other issues. We engage with parents and carers through parent meetings, which are parl of our model. We work with schools and where appropriate other agencies to ensure broader family needs are addressed. We also work to support teaching and oth8r staff, providing support tailored to need. In 2023124 Blue Smile operated a Partner School service in Arbury Primary School, The Grove Primary School. Histon and Impington Brook Primary School, Orchard Park Community Primary School, The Galfrid School, Shirley Community Primary School. St Andrew's C of E Primary School in Soham, Pendragon Community Primary School in Papworth Everard. and Monkfield Park Primary School in Cambourne. Provldlng clin5cal servlces In other schools Blue Smile provides a flexible outreach $eNice to help children in any school in Cambridgeshire and surrounding areas. This enables schools who may not want to commit to the Partner School model lo ask Blue Smile to work with indlvidual or small numbers of children who need support. The outreach service also offers a 'menu of services, from which schi)ols can choose to support children with one-to-one therapy, provide psychoeducalional support through group work, or provide fomial teacher mentoring. We have provided our outreach service in 14 schools where we offed one-to-one therapy, 6 schools where we offered psychoeducational groups, 5 schools where we offered both one-to-one and groupwork, and 3 schools where we offered formal teacher mentoring. One-to-one provision Over211, Blue Smile provided one-to-one therapy for 266 chlldren over 3,930 sessions as compared to 255 hildren over 4,624 sessions in 202213. This consisted of 2,831 sessions for 193 children in our Partner Schoo15, and 1,099 sessions to 73 children in other schools. We have adapted our model Ihis year for both Partner Schools and other schools in that our one-to-one offer now consists of a package of 20 sessions for each child. We have made this change as our evaluation shows Ihal mora than 20 sessions do not improvè outcomes for children., we are keen to ensure our approach is robustly evidence based and thal we can support as many children as possible within the resources we have. The 20-session model can be flexed up or down as required as we recognise that each child is individual, and our service is tailored to each child's needs.
Blue Smile Project Company Limited by Guarantee Trustees. annual report f¢ontinuedJ Year ended 31 July 2024 Additional services Blue Smile has continued lo offer a 'whole family, and 'whole school, approach in response to feedbaok and nformation from our referrals data. Where children need support it is regularly the case that parents and carers may also need support, whether with their own mental health or other iSSLfes. While Blue Smile's offer is focused on children we continue to engage with parents and carers by including parent meelings in our model and we seek to work with schools and where appropriate other agencies to ensure broader famlly needs are addressed. We continue to offer additional services through our Blue Smile 'Menu of Services, available to all schools. We have delivered: 24 psychoeducational groups to 158 children on topics such as Managing Big Feelings and, for children in Year 6, Moving on Up. We have also developed and rolled out a new group to help children address anxiety, called Worry Warriors. 27.5 hours of fom)al mentoring to staff in 3 schools (alongside the informal support and mentoring provided as part of the service lo our Partner Schools). W8 hav8 also deliverad several talks to external groups as part of our commitment to supporting the wider community. These included talks for sludent counsellors at the University of Cambridge Faculty of Education and "lunch and leam" events for our corporate supporters, including Rxcelerate.

The sessions covered areas such as safeguarding, supporting children wilh ADHD, th8 narrative arc. an inlroduction to dramatherapy, and working with hard-to-reach children. We again brought the whole Blue Smile leam together, including staff. studènts and self-employed therapists along with Trustees, for a Blue Smile Day on a Saturday in Seplember 2023. The day involved a range of practical training sessions delivered by senior slaff and the Safeguarding Trustee, with a focus on Safeguarding as wèll as affording an opportunity for p8ople to network and spend some time together.

Safer recruiting method5 are used for all persons working with children and they receive a full induction and regular supervision. We regularly review and update our safeguarding policy and practice and ensure that for everyone involved in tha charity safeguarding is always the priority and always front of mind. Carrie-Ann Black, Head of Nurslng for Research and Quality at the South London and Maudsley NHS Trust, remained our Lead Safeguarding Trustee lill her resignation from the Board in January 2024. Angela McKeown slepped in as Interim Lead Safeguarding Trustee., we have recruited a new Lead Safeguarding Trustee, Karen Glisson. in the 24125 year. Karen has extensive safeguarding experience, and we have been pleased to welcome herlo the Board. The Clinical, Ethics and Safeguarding Group, chaired by Carrie-Ann and then Angela, and comprising internal and external members, considers safeguarding requirements and ethical issues and practice slandards. A Clinical Panel, comprising a Clinical Supervisor. the Clinical Services Manager and the Lead Trustee for Safeguarding, can be called if immediate discussion or advice on a clinical matter is required. Evaluation and Impact - measuring our 6ff8ctiveness Since the start of the service in 2010, Blue Smile has supported over 1700 children Ihrough one to one therapy. 500 children Ihrough psychoeducational groups and a further 1000 children through assemblies and awareness raising workshops. The support we offer to children also encompasse5 SUPPOrt for parents and carers and we also support whole school communities to better understand and deal with mental health challenges. Our evaluation shows Blue Smile's early intervention and prevention model to be highly effective. The fact that seTvices are delivered in consultation wilh and in schools mean they are readily accessible even to families who may olheNise find il difficult to transport their children to SèTvlc6s outside school and outside school hours. While we have seen a decrease in the average number of problems and symptoms this year, complex cases still make up 590/0 of the caseload and children are presenting with an average of 2.4 problems {such as famiSy breakdown, bereavement or parental mental ill health) and 3.8 symptoms {su¢h as anxietylpanic attacks. low s6lf-esteemlidentily problems and low moodldepression). 18 /0 of referrals record parentallfamily mental illnes5, as compared to 27D/o in 22123 and 22 % the previous year. Domestic abuse reporting remains at around 21 % of referrals which is down from the spike that was seen immediately after the pandemic. 17 % of children referred had social care involv8ment. 180/0 of children had at least 4 Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACES). Having multiple ACES has been identified as a major risk factor for sèrious illness, such a5 heart disease and cancer, and emotional and social problems later in adult life. We have a robusl system of outcome measures in place for our services, using a variety of bespoke and slandardised measures. We consider measurement of these outcomes to be a core part of clinical decision- making and ensuring that our work is effective. We use two core measures to evaluate our one-to-one therapy.. Our SDQ progress and clinical recovery rat8s show that children's emotional functioning is significantly improved with Blue Smile's early support, which can prevent more serious difficulties later on in life and improve long-term life prospects. Okjr goals based BSAM outcomes demonstrates that supporting children's emotional wellbeing reduces behavioural difficulties and emotional blocks related to learning.
Blue Smile Project Company Limited by Guarantee Trustees, annual report (continued) Year ended 31 July 2024 On the BSAM, 90P/D of children felt they had made progress on the goals they had set by the end of therapy and 87ty/0 of parenls said their children had made progress on those goals.

As regards the SDQ, 65 /0 of parenls felt that their child had improved by the end of therapy. Of the parents of children who started in the clinically diagnosable range, 69/0 considered their child to have made noticeable improvement by the end of therapy, with 36•/. having made a full recovery. In addition, 48V/o of children improved school attendance. And 321J/o of the children performing below the national curriculum level improved their performance In at least one or more main areas of study {reading, writing, and maths) to be in line with the curriculum expectations. Blue Smile collects data on children's willingness to engage in school life such as classroom activities and extracurricular clubs. For children who inilially scored low (a score 5 or less out of 10). teachers reporled 72°/o showed increased willingness to engage following therapy. All of our psychoeducatlonal groups are evaluated using robust measures appropriate to the specific group and show positive impacts including on children's ability to deploy coping strategies. For example, following participation in 'Worry Warriors,, 87 /0 of Ihe children reported improved ability to use appropriate strategies to tackle Ihelr worries We use the feedback and evaluation to refine the groupwork offer., for example, in 24125 we decided to deliver'survive and Thrive. groups for year 7 pupils separately for boys and girls.

As a result of this surplus the net assets of the charity increased to £422.218. The cash balance remained relatively stable increasing from £400,963 to £431,449 as at 31 July 2024. Deblors and creditors fell by similar levels over the year as shown in the balance sheet to these accounts. Over the year, we have been extremely fortunate to have been supported by some very generous partners. These cover trusls and funds, community fundraising efforts, corporales and individual donors, many of whom give on a regular basis. We are extremely grateful to them all. Overall Income Income from donations, grants, fundraising events and bank interest amounted to £389,921. Service fee income amounted to £162,022. Reserves policy: Blue Smile conlinues to emphasise prudent managemenl of its reseNes and long-temi financial planning. The trustees reviewed and updated the r8serves policy a few years ago, the actual 18vel of reserves compared lo this policy is reviewed on a regular basis. In setting and reviewing Blue Smile's Reserves Policy, the Board lakes into account the charity's commitment to working long-term with children (the aim Is an average of two school terms}, as well as the annual Service Level Agreements with schools. Having assessed potential threats and risks, the Trustees have agreed the need to maintain sufficient income reserves to- protect the conlinltity of the charity's work allow for fluctuations in fundraising income cover unexpected expenditure and contingencies fund the costs of growth and transformation enable the charity to wind up in an orderly and ethical fashion should il become no longer viable for the charity lo continue. The trustees consider the optimal amount for reserves is 6 months, running costs. This equates, on the basis of the budget agreed by trustees for the 24125 year, to £324,000. As at 31 July 2024 total reserves held were £422,218 of which £10,615 was restricted as detailed in the notes to the accounts. The remaining £411.603 (2023: £378.638) is unrestricted and considered to be 'free r6s6rve' in line with the Charity Commission guidance. Trustees have carefully considered the way in which reserves above this level Gan be strategically invested to support the future development of Blue Smile. 10-
Blue Smile Project Company Limited by Guarantee Trustees. annual report (continued) Year ended 31 July 2024 Financlal review (continued) In April 2023, we made the decision to increase therapist fees to more fairly reflect the training, skills and experience of our workforce. This will be an a(idilional expense of £60,000 towards our Partner School service alone. At the same time, we decided not to increase the conlribulion wè seek from schools. in recognition of the pressures on school finances. In addition, we designated additional funds, of £10,000 beyond our usual level, to further subsidise our work at Partner Schools seNing particularly disadvantaged areas. We also designated £10,000 of funding for laptops, recognising additional IT equipment needed now that all clinical data is recorded online following the rollout of our clinical record management system Icharilylog). Reserves, and income and expenditure, are monitored closely by the Rernuneration and Finance subcommittee and Board. Deslgnated funds With respect to designated funds. the charity designated £10.000 towards hardware to support the cloud- based data system project and £25,000 towards the provision of a Partner School service in a new school. In 202312024 the charity further designated £13,000 towards Ihe provision of a Partner School service in a new school, bringing the total arnount designated for this purpose to £38,000. These costs remain unexpansed at the year end. Investment Policy: Cash balances are held in current and deposit bank accounts wlth the Charity's bankers Plans for future periods We plan to Continue our new 20-week model for one-to-one therapy, following the evidence that more sessions than this do not yield belter resulls for children. This will help us d81iver good outcomes for more children. We also plan lo build on our successful expansion ol groupwork and our new 'Worry Warriors, pilot which had excellent feedback and positive evaluation results. Groupwork is an excellent model for early intervention and for helping children build resilience. In the coming year we will explore geographical expansion and ways in which we can reach children particularly in more deprived areas or from families facing more challenges than the average. Having done thorough research into digital models, we have concluded that in person delivery of the intensive one-to-one support we offer to young children cannot be readily replaced by any of the digitsl mode15 currently on the market. Many of these models are airned al less severe problems or situations. are aimed at older childrenlieenagers or involve high levels of parental engagement. We will continue to look at best ways to build Dn our digitisation of data and at digital models for supporting our work and making il more efficient in terms of delivery.
