(b) to advance in life and relieve needs of young people through: (i) the provision of recreational and leisure time activities provided in the interest of social welfare, designed to improve their conditions of life; (ii) providing support and activities which develop their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as mature and responsible individuals.

|Summary of the main<br>activities in relation to those<br>purposes for the public<br>benefit, in particular, the<br>activities, projects or<br>services identified in the<br>accounts.|Para 1.17<br>and 1.19|The directors believe that the organisation<br>satisfies the requirements of section 17 of<br>the Charities Act 2011 regarding public<br>benefit because the general community<br>benefits from the organisation's activities.<br>The principal activities of the organisation<br>which are set out in the Articles of<br>Association include:<br>Promotion of social inclusion for the public<br>benefit by working with members of<br>communities, who are socially or<br>economically deprived.<br>Provision of education, recreational and<br>leisure time activities, and general<br>assistance to young disadvantaged<br>persons.<br>2020-21 was a year like no other – a year<br>when the pandemic affected all of us and<br>strangely united us in a common cause.  In<br>normal times we open our doors to all<br>young people in Coventry – everyone is<br>welcome.  During the pandemic, this<br>principle didn’t change, but the restrictions<br>up on us meant that we provided the<br>greatest support to those whose needs<br>were greatest.   It became clear very quickly<br>that the pandemic impacted some in our<br>population much more severely than others.<br>Our work during the year is all about how<br>we responded to the extraordinary,<br>unplanned restrictions imposed on us so we<br>could continue to support young people.<br>Our main delivery centre, Hillfields Young<br>People’s Centre (HYPC), was closed for 25<br>weeks from 18 March – 6 September.  For<br>the rest of the year it re-opened for 1 to 1<br>and small group activities only.  We were<br>guided by local advice from Coventry City<br>Council and the National Youth Agency’s<br>Covid Guidance bulletins.<br>Altogether we worked with 445 individual<br>young people in 2020-21.  This compared<br>to 2,319 the previous year, a drop of 80%.<br>However, this only tells part of the story.<br>Even when HYPC was closed, and some<br>staff were on furlough, we continued to run<br>sessions online, on the phone and by<br>visiting young people on their doorstep<br>when we could do this safely.**In fact, we**<br>**ran 2,274 youth work sessions during**<br>**the year compared to 2,664 the previous**<br>**year, a reduction of only 15%.**Many of<br>thesewere delivered online.|





|||And because we worked with fewer young<br>people, the intensity of our work increased<br>significantly.**The average contact hours**<br>**with each young person rose from 21 to**<br>**39hrs.**<br>Our open access and sports activities,<br>which attract large numbers of young<br>people, didn’t take place during the year.<br>Instead, we continued with targeted support<br>work where the ratio of staff to young<br>people was lower, particularly in our<br>_Building Better Opportunities_programme<br>which supports vulnerable young people<br>into education and employment, and our<br>_Involved_strand which works with newly<br>arrived young people in Coventry.<br>**Key strands of focus during the year:**<br>_Education and Training (Raising Aspirations_<br>_Programme)_<br>_Health and Wellbeing (Healthy Futures)_<br>Community Engagement and Empowerment<br>_Futures)_<br>Newly Arrived Young People_(Involved)_<br>Creative Programmes/City of Culture 2021<br>_(Changing Trax)_<br>Sustainability of the sector_(Coventry Youth_<br>_Partnership)_|

|Summary of the main<br>achievements of the charity,<br>identifying the difference the<br>charity’s work has made to<br>the circumstances of its<br>beneficiaries and any wider<br>benefits to society as a<br>whole.|Para 1.20|**Overview of Core Activity**<br>**1. Employability Programmes**<br>The core 'Raising Aspirations Programme'<br>continues to deliver high-level outcomes for<br>young people most in need of support. Delivered<br>each week day, the provision is designed to<br>support those most at risk, or already missing<br>from mainstream education services. We also<br>continue to deliver on the ESF/TNL funded<br>Progress programme in partnership with<br>Groundwork UK, which is an innovative and<br>deep-reaching employability support programme<br>targeting those furthest from employment. We<br>envisage further support will be required by<br>young people relating to their employability and<br>credible employment opportunities as we come<br>further out of the pandemic.<br>**2. Community Provision**<br>Reintroducing community sessions has been an<br>important part of our planning and programming<br>this year. Getting young people confidently back<br>together again has been a key focus, navigating<br>the ever changing restrictions and guidelines to<br>ensure that our provision is not only safe, but also<br>relevant to the needs of young people and the<br>wider community.<br>**3. Newly arrived young people**<br>Our work to support newly arrived young people<br>has remained an integral part of the local offer to<br>support those seeking refuge and asylum. Whilst<br>the restrictions of the virus initially halted new<br>arrivals, the programme soon  resumedwith|





families accessing PYF for support. **4. City of Culture 2021** As an organisation, we hope to continue to play a key role in this programme as the year approaches. As the ‘Honorary Partner’ to the programme, It will be essential to ensure that the fidelity of the programme is retained, and that young people who were heavily engaged in the process are fully included as the planning and delivery of the programme is initiated. Positive progress has been made towards reaching an agreement for PYF engagement in the programme. **5. Coventry Youth Partnership** The youth sector across the UK has found itself in a very precarious position. Whilst funders mobilized to get funds in to the sector, challenges remained in relation to competition for funds, significant increase in young people’s needs and a diminishing workforce across the sector. PYF established a number of support programmes to counter the challenges, including setting up of funding streams for the sector to access and training opportunities to upskill the sector. The challenges of the year, whilst difficult to navigate, galvanized the team and refocused us on our mission to support young people. We are very pleased with the outcomes we have achieved, underpinned by a high level of satisfaction reported by young people and staff through our annual survey. We continue to develop our Youth Advisory Group, named the 'Positive Young Thinkers' who are central in decision making and operational values. A total of 25 volunteers are currently engaged in the delivery and support of projects. This group is an excellent mix across genders and cultural backgrounds.

|Achievemen<br>ts against<br>objectives<br>set|Para 1.41|**Engagement:**<br>Although the total number of young people we reached in 2020-<br>21 dropped significantly, the spread across our 8-25 age range<br>remained very similar to the year before with only a slight<br>reduction in 11–13-year-olds. The wards in which young people<br>lived also remained relatively static, with the majority of<br>participants coming from St Michael’s and Foleshill wards.<br>Participant numbers did increase in St Michael’s ward by 15%<br>and it dropped in Foleshill by around 20%.  This reflects the<br>restrictions on movement during Covid.<br>Early signs are that participant numbers are now increasing<br>again.  In the first quarter of 2021-22, 550 young people took<br>part in PYF activities compared to 445 for the whole of last year.<br>PYF uses the Warwick Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale to<br>measure change in young people’s sense of well-being while<br>they are participating in our programmes.  Young people<br>complete a short survey with 7 questions early in the programme<br>and then later on one or more occasions.<br>Across all 79 respondents we saw an average increase in well-<br>being scores of 2.7 (see Figure 5).  84% rated their well-being<br>as Moderate or High compared to 65% before taking part in our<br>programmes.<br>Across all 79 respondents we saw an average increase in well-<br>being scores of 2.7.  At the end of the programme 84% rated<br>their well-being as Moderate or High compared with 65% at the<br>start.<br>Average well-being scores increased more for males (3.15<br>points) compared to females (1.35 points) and for younger<br>participants (3.07 points) compared with older young people<br>(2.29).<br>Overall well-being scores increased more for males (3.15 points)<br>compared to females (1.35 points); and for younger participants<br>(13-15 year olds) 3.07 points compared to 2.29 for 16-24 year<br>olds).|

Whilst the effects of Covid have dominated the year, we are pleased to report posilNe progress across
the activity of the organ￿all0n. Whilst services for young people wuired significant redesign, we
mobilised the organisation lo increase the offer in depth, responding to the emorging needs of young

to Tecrurt staff to the team Ihroughc4Jt lockdown and found Oursel￿ in a g￿d position with local,
gional and national funders seeking lo distribute re8ource8 to young peopk and communities. Our
work supporting the local youth work sector also increased a8 many organisations expressed a desire
to continue to support young people, which PYF were able lo support through accessing and
distributing funding as well as providing infrastructure Support to VCSE organisations. We must
express our sincere thanks lo our staff and volunteer teams, funders and partners during this
challenging year, with thg biggest thanks lo the young peoplg for thriving during a very diffiGult period.
1.Ral8ing Aspirations Programm
Raising Aspirations Programme is PYF'S alternative education provision. It offers small group support
for young people referred to us Lwause they are excluded from sch￿1 or from other aKernative
provision and leaming environments.
The cor8 activty of this financial year has been in the fom of one-to-one personalisa support for
young people who found thems8￿0$ even further removed from meaningful employment and training
opportunities, The effects of Covid were hardest by young people who were not involved in any
foTmal learning or work setting, therefore this support was of paramount importance. Daity sessions
were delivered out of our youth centre as well as online. We found that the online sessions were
Surprisingly effective, 88 a number of participants who were referred to us found more confidence
using online access rather than having lo attend a physical location.
2.Positive Futures Communlty Programme
Posltwe Future5 consists of several programmes fuTrded by a wide range of supporters including the
European Social Fund, Coventry City Council and the Police and Crime Commissioner for the Wesl
Midland8. We offer targeted in18rven1￿n8 to suppjrt young people affected by crime. V￿lenGe and
exploilalion.
Staying Safe Mentoring programmes continued throughout the year. with most delTvery tsking place
online, through phone calls and on&tO-one appointments. We found that the risk of exploitation of
young people had increased over lockdown. with more young people finding themse￿¢$ isol*ed and
further vulnerable. To challenge this, we ensured that prOvis￿n and support r8mained available
throughout. We wktnessed a numbeT of achievgments including the production ol high quality SLK￿l
rnedia outputs which we havg profiled on YouTube.
3. Involved
Involwj programmes are mainly funded by granls from Coventry City Council and designed to
support young people who are new￿ arrived to the UK as Tefugees and asylum seekers. The impact of
Covid meant that there was real uncertainty about new cohorts arriving lo the UK, therefore we placed
much more emphasis on supporting families and young people who were already here wrth us. We
found that this cohort required a high.level of support as they faced 8 range of complexities of settling
in to the UK given such uncertain times.
4. Clty of Cufture I Changlng Tr•x
As the Honorary Partner lo the UK Cty of Cumure 2021, PYF tske this r8$ponsibilily vory $eriousty and
continue to work with the Trust lo onsure that the programme not only rgpfesent¥ and responds lo the
needs of young people, but has a clear focus on the legacy opportunities such a tille presents. We
ok forward to the extended year unfolding and playing 8 Part of thi8 important perth for the cty.
Changing Trax looks lo unleash creativty and unkjck inner wtenlial within young people. The
programme develops platfoms for young wJults to no￿ork, collaborate and develop their cniical
thinking skills.
AS the 'youlh voice, for the Coventry 2021 Cty of Culture bid PYF'S ethos is to ensure opportunities
are accessible lo all by developing a wide range of crgatNe channds, vthich young people may not

& PYF Connfjct
PYF has been the driving force behind the Coventry Youth Partnership, a model of local youth work
collaboration that has sparked interest not jusl within Coventry but across the UK. 11 a¢ts as a Gerblral
hub, bringing together experienced youth organisalions and professh?nals from xross thè cty.
buil(Jing on the 81rengths of each individual organisation, developing $hared goals and agreeing
common approach to youth work, not only amongst operational partners but also the llxal authorty
and other stslutory bodies.
The lockdown period has allowed a smaller but more focussed group of partners the opportunity lo
take st￿k of Ihe current plans for the partnership and to work tO981her to develop a local youth work
plan which helps organi5alions lo be ready for a post-lockdown future for young people.
Summary
For many reasons, 2020-21 was a year like no other.
We are very grateful for the support we have received as an organisalion, which in tum allowed us lo
maintain a high kvel of support for the most vulnerable young people. Our main delivery centre,
Hillfields Young Peopl8's Centre (HYPCI, was closed for 25 weeks from 18 March - 6 September.
For the resl of the year il r&opened for 1 to 1 and Small group activities only.
Altogether we worked with 445 individual young people in 2020-21. This ccfflpared lo 2,319 the
previou8 year {a drop of 80%).
However, this only tells part of the story. Even though HYPC was ¢k)$ed, and staff were on fudough.
we continued lo run sessions online and by vi5rting young people on their d¢)orslep. In fact, we ran
2,274 youth work sessions during the year compared to 2.664 thè previous year. This is a reduction of
only 15°h. And because we worked with fewer young people. the intensity of our work increased
synrficantty. The average contscl hours ￿th each young person rose from 21 hrs to 39hrs. There
was also evidence that during the lockdown perKid when HYPC was closed and we began operating
online, female participants increased. Between March - September 2019-20 th￿ participation was
260h but during the lockdown this increase(I to 339h. There is less evidence that age ranges changed
during the lockdown period or that we worked with some ethnic groups moro than others.
We discovered unmet needs amongst a 5*Jnrficant number of young people for access lo IT
equipment. Without rt, young people were not able to ￿rticIPale properly in online classe8 and we
were able lo support 30 young people by providing laptOP5 and data packages wrth financ￿1 help from
Comic Relief. We also supported young people with food deliveries for cts)kiny, sports equipment for
exercise at home (yoga mats, footballs etc.)
The financial profile of PYF continues to lo¢)k héalthy, with 8 pipeline of grants and awards relevant lo
delivery. We seek lo diversfy this through the coming year by inc¢Nporating a new fundraising strategy
in to the team, which will assess and address current need against opportunty.
To ensure that we provide a clear public benefit, we have sel our organisational values..
To be Iran$parenl in our operations
- To have young people at the Ggnlre of all that we do
- To treat all of our stakeholders wrth respect and dKJnlty
- To have a workforce that refiects and responds lo the needs of our target groups
- To hav8 an effective and responsible board of trustees and asstxiates
- To a￿ayS behave in the interests of the young people and the wider charitable objectives of
our organisalion.
Hurnan Rosourc8s
Whilst the year has been challenging, we have continued to develop our HR function through training
and developmant c*)portunrt￿s for staff, as well as recruiting lo three new rok8s within the organisation.
The ongoing 8UPPOrt of staff will bè e88ential for the period ahead.

through mapping our partnerships and netM)rk8 in which we operate. We rewgni¥e the importance of

Whi15t we have secured a short4em) lease with the local authority for our delivery base, we recogni%6
that this is risky and seek to address this through the purchase of a suitable premises as soon as a

a solid found*ion lo managfr the core of th& business.

This continues to in¢rgasg. due to a number of factors. We regular￿ review and make strategic plan5
for the foreseeabla future. Young people have been disproportionate￿ affected by CoMd-19, 50 we

to Tecrurt staff to the team Ihroughc4Jt lockdown and found Oursel￿ in a g￿d position with local,
gional and national funders seeking lo distribute re8ource8 to young peopk and communities. Our
work supporting the local youth work sector also increased a8 many organisations expressed a desire
to continue to support young people, which PYF were able lo support through accessing and
distributing funding as well as providing infrastructure Support to VCSE organisations. We must
express our sincere thanks lo our staff and volunteer teams, funders and partners during this
challenging year, with thg biggest thanks lo the young peoplg for thriving during a very diffiGult period.
1.Ral8ing Aspirations Programm
Raising Aspirations Programme is PYF'S alternative education provision. It offers small group support
for young people referred to us Lwause they are excluded from sch￿1 or from other aKernative
provision and leaming environments.
The cor8 activty of this financial year has been in the fom of one-to-one personalisa support for
young people who found thems8￿0$ even further removed from meaningful employment and training
opportunities, The effects of Covid were hardest by young people who were not involved in any
foTmal learning or work setting, therefore this support was of paramount importance. Daity sessions
were delivered out of our youth centre as well as online. We found that the online sessions were
Surprisingly effective, 88 a number of participants who were referred to us found more confidence
using online access rather than having lo attend a physical location.
2.Positive Futures Communlty Programme
Posltwe Future5 consists of several programmes fuTrded by a wide range of supporters including the
European Social Fund, Coventry City Council and the Police and Crime Commissioner for the Wesl
Midland8. We offer targeted in18rven1￿n8 to suppjrt young people affected by crime. V￿lenGe and
exploilalion.
Staying Safe Mentoring programmes continued throughout the year. with most delTvery tsking place
online, through phone calls and on&tO-one appointments. We found that the risk of exploitation of
young people had increased over lockdown. with more young people finding themse￿¢$ isol*ed and
further vulnerable. To challenge this, we ensured that prOvis￿n and support r8mained available
throughout. We wktnessed a numbeT of achievgments including the production ol high quality SLK￿l
rnedia outputs which we havg profiled on YouTube.
3. Involved
Involwj programmes are mainly funded by granls from Coventry City Council and designed to
support young people who are new￿ arrived to the UK as Tefugees and asylum seekers. The impact of
Covid meant that there was real uncertainty about new cohorts arriving lo the UK, therefore we placed
much more emphasis on supporting families and young people who were already here wrth us. We
found that this cohort required a high.level of support as they faced 8 range of complexities of settling
in to the UK given such uncertain times.
4. Clty of Cufture I Changlng Tr•x
As the Honorary Partner lo the UK Cty of Cumure 2021, PYF tske this r8$ponsibilily vory $eriousty and
continue to work with the Trust lo onsure that the programme not only rgpfesent¥ and responds lo the
needs of young people, but has a clear focus on the legacy opportunities such a tille presents. We
ok forward to the extended year unfolding and playing 8 Part of thi8 important perth for the cty.
Changing Trax looks lo unleash creativty and unkjck inner wtenlial within young people. The
programme develops platfoms for young wJults to no￿ork, collaborate and develop their cniical
thinking skills.
AS the 'youlh voice, for the Coventry 2021 Cty of Culture bid PYF'S ethos is to ensure opportunities
are accessible lo all by developing a wide range of crgatNe channds, vthich young people may not

& PYF Connfjct
PYF has been the driving force behind the Coventry Youth Partnership, a model of local youth work
collaboration that has sparked interest not jusl within Coventry but across the UK. 11 a¢ts as a Gerblral
hub, bringing together experienced youth organisalions and professh?nals from xross thè cty.
buil(Jing on the 81rengths of each individual organisation, developing $hared goals and agreeing
common approach to youth work, not only amongst operational partners but also the llxal authorty
and other stslutory bodies.
The lockdown period has allowed a smaller but more focussed group of partners the opportunity lo
take st￿k of Ihe current plans for the partnership and to work tO981her to develop a local youth work
plan which helps organi5alions lo be ready for a post-lockdown future for young people.
Summary
For many reasons, 2020-21 was a year like no other.
We are very grateful for the support we have received as an organisalion, which in tum allowed us lo
maintain a high kvel of support for the most vulnerable young people. Our main delivery centre,
Hillfields Young Peopl8's Centre (HYPCI, was closed for 25 weeks from 18 March - 6 September.
For the resl of the year il r&opened for 1 to 1 and Small group activities only.
Altogether we worked with 445 individual young people in 2020-21. This ccfflpared lo 2,319 the
previou8 year {a drop of 80%).
However, this only tells part of the story. Even though HYPC was ¢k)$ed, and staff were on fudough.
we continued lo run sessions online and by vi5rting young people on their d¢)orslep. In fact, we ran
2,274 youth work sessions during the year compared to 2.664 thè previous year. This is a reduction of
only 15°h. And because we worked with fewer young people. the intensity of our work increased
synrficantty. The average contscl hours ￿th each young person rose from 21 hrs to 39hrs. There
was also evidence that during the lockdown perKid when HYPC was closed and we began operating
online, female participants increased. Between March - September 2019-20 th￿ participation was
260h but during the lockdown this increase(I to 339h. There is less evidence that age ranges changed
during the lockdown period or that we worked with some ethnic groups moro than others.
We discovered unmet needs amongst a 5*Jnrficant number of young people for access lo IT
equipment. Without rt, young people were not able to ￿rticIPale properly in online classe8 and we
were able lo support 30 young people by providing laptOP5 and data packages wrth financ￿1 help from
Comic Relief. We also supported young people with food deliveries for cts)kiny, sports equipment for
exercise at home (yoga mats, footballs etc.)
The financial profile of PYF continues to lo¢)k héalthy, with 8 pipeline of grants and awards relevant lo
delivery. We seek lo diversfy this through the coming year by inc¢Nporating a new fundraising strategy
in to the team, which will assess and address current need against opportunty.
To ensure that we provide a clear public benefit, we have sel our organisational values..
To be Iran$parenl in our operations
- To have young people at the Ggnlre of all that we do
- To treat all of our stakeholders wrth respect and dKJnlty
- To have a workforce that refiects and responds lo the needs of our target groups
- To hav8 an effective and responsible board of trustees and asstxiates
- To a￿ayS behave in the interests of the young people and the wider charitable objectives of
our organisalion.
Hurnan Rosourc8s
Whilst the year has been challenging, we have continued to develop our HR function through training
and developmant c*)portunrt￿s for staff, as well as recruiting lo three new rok8s within the organisation.
The ongoing 8UPPOrt of staff will bè e88ential for the period ahead.
