## **CHAIR’S MESSAGE** 

t is my pleasure to present the annual report of the Bidgley Power Foundation for the 2021 financial year. Despite various challenges and obstacles due to the Covid 19 pandemic and funding constraints, we achieved a remarkable progress in 2021 when compared to 2020. Although the pandemic had an impact on our activities, we focused on supporting our communities through the last two very challenging years. Importantly, we also protected and improved our financial strength. 

This report outlines significant deliveries and achievements of our charity for the period of January 1st 2021 to December 2021. I am happy to emphasize that our organisation managed to deliver satisfactory outcomes during the period under review. We managed to launch Easter, Summer, and Winter holiday activities and food programme (HAF programme) benefitting 135 children. Our projects were successful in delivering expected wider social outcomes which include the reduction in youth-related crime and anti-social behaviour, increases the skills of local youth to support their transition into employment, and positive effects on physical and mental well-being of those who actively participated in our programmes. 

Our partner organizations contributed massively to the successful operation of our activities. Sport Birmingham, StreetGames, Birmingham City Council, Aston Villa Football Club, and Badminton England, and are some of our key partner organizations. Our partner organisations’ valuable contribution helped us to implement our targeted programmes effectively and successfully. They were a catalyst to achieving our objectives. 

I would like to thank our staff and volunteers for their personal contribution to implement our programmes successfully. It is their expertise, knowledge, and compassion that make our services stand out for our participants. I take this opportunity to thank all those who assisted us. 

Mr Pritesh Pattni Chair, Bidgley Power Foundation

**ANNUAL REPORT 2021: BIDGLEY POWER FOUNDATION** 

## **EXECUTIVE SUMMARY** 

idgley Power Foundation (BPF) has been able to achieve many of the aims set out in the Constitution in 2021. Our programmes designed to serve local community have  significantly raised the profile of our charity not only with local people, but also with other voluntary and statutory groups working within the Birmingham city as a whole. 

During 2021, BPF has been able to secure funds from the NHS Blood and Transplant division to improve awareness of blood donation with a complete focus on the BAME community in the Aston Ward of Birmingham. As a step to improve children’s knowledge in extra-curricular activities, BPF organised few educational trips in 2021 to Cadbury World, Think Tank and Star City. These trips helped the kids to get active, learn and explore new things. There was a high demand for these trips and children participated in these trips in great enthusiasm. 

One of the outstanding achievement was that we were able to start refurbishing Aston Pavilion. The development of this community asset into a viable and useful community resource is a great challenge to BPF. 

As everybody faced, Covid 19 pandemic was a challenge for the charity in implementing the projects planned during 2021.  However, as a charity we have managed to deliver some useful projects as highlighted in this report. We delivered three holiday activity programmes during the review period. We implemented programmes for disability service provision as well as learning and skills development for both young and old within our locality. This commitment is always be part of the journey and not a destination. 

Many improvements have been made in areas such as  governance, financial policy, fundraising and training of our most valuable resource which are our volunteers who go to make this organisation. In this year we have developed the capacity to challenge decisions which affect our service users.

## **FUTURE PLANS: 2022-2024**

- i. Facilitate disadvantaged children to continue their education and 

- ii. Encourage adults and young people to be active through engaging in physical activities 

- iii. Enhance the community relations in Aston 

We hope to achieve the above objectives through the implementation of the following proposals. 

## **ESTABLISHMENT OF A FOREST SCHOOL** 

BPF is in the process of planning to establish a foreign school. The vision on of the Forest school is to provide a setting to stimulate children’s and people’s participation in nature activities and provide them a platform to engage in gardening, environmental education and diverse range of outdoor activities. 

## Land identified for the forest school 



**17** 



**ANNUAL REPORT 2021/2022: BIDGLEY POWER FOUNDATION** 

We are in the process of developing an action plan through a partnership. We want to develop the forest school infrastructure with its partners ensuring a balanced environmental sustainability and meeting the needs of the local community by: 

- Promoting employment, sport and recreation and usage of open space in consistent with environmental guidelines of the local authority 

- Enhancing the natural landscape character, primarily by managing and developing the forest cover 

- Conserving and enhancing heritage 

- Safeguarding and expanding the range of leisure and visitor facilities within the forest park and surrounding area of Aston Park 

- Working with developers to create opportunities for “work experience”, offering a progression path to employment of young people; and 

- Continuing to work with the local community and local businesses to achieve the aims of the establishment of the forest park 

## **REFURBISHMENT OF ASTON PAVILION** 

One of our key priorities this year is to refurbish the Pavilion. This centre will be converted to a more user-friendly manner. Under the refurbishment programme, three new office spaces for hire out on a short-term basis will be formed. This office space will be used as a training room, seminar rooms mainly for new-start-ups small scale businesses. 

The current communication system of the Pavilion will also be upgraded including the establishment of a free WiFi network. We are also investigating the possibility of establishing a new sustainable heating system. 

## **SUPPORT YOUNG PEOPLE TO ENTER THE LABOUR MARKET** 

Unemployment is one of the major issues in Ladywood constituency (where Aston falls). According to the data published by the Birmingham City Council in 2020, the Ladywood constituency has the highest claimant unemployment rate (23.2%) in June 2020. The Sutton Coldfield constituency has the lowest unemployment rate (3.8%). This comparison indicates the magnitude of the unemployment issue in Ladywood. 

Therefore, BPF will promote apprenticeship programmes in collaboration with local entrepreneurs and voluntary organisations. Job fairs designed for 

**18** 



**ANNUAL REPORT 2021/2022: BIDGLEY POWER FOUNDATION** 

registering and matching apprenticeship services to local unemployed and school leavers will be a key planned activity during the next year provided the current Covid 19 situation improves. 

**‘HOMEWORK CLUB’ FOR CHILDREN** 

Children are a major asset to the growth of Birmingham city because they are the future leaders. However, child poverty in the city is too high. In Birmingham, about 37% of all the children are living in poverty (about 100,000 children). This is the highest rate of child poverty across the UK’s core cities. Ladywood Constituency where our charity is working has the third-highest level of child poverty in the UK among parliamentary constituencies with 47% of children living in poverty after housing costs (Birmingham Child Poverty Commission, 2015). 

Tackling child poverty is a major challenge and children in poverty have lower educational outcomes than their peers, leading to disadvantaged in their latter life. Therefore, we will embark on a programme to teach children English and Mathematics by establishing a _‘_ _**homework club’**_ in Aston. 

**SPORTS AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES** 

One of the key issues in the Aston areas is inactivity and health issues such as obesity, and diabetes.  It has been estimated that around 80 percent of people in  Aston are inactive. Therefore we will promote football in collaboration with Aston Villa Foundation. 

Cricket development will be carried out in collaboration with the Aston Cricket Club and Warwickshire Cricket Club. We hope to enhance networks with other cricket clubs in the area. We will promote the following. 

- School crocket 

- Cricket for beginners 

- Communities league cricket

## **FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE: 2021** 

## **INCOME: 2021** 

Thanks to our generous partners, funders, and the local community, we have raised £30,900 during 2020 as highlighted in Table 1 and Figure 1 to implement our planned projects. However, the table shows that the income has decreased by 42% when compared to 2019. The reduction of the income has been occurred due to the Covid 19 pandemic and limited funding sources.
