MESSAGE FROM YOUNG PRIME MINISTER
Thank you for voting me as Prime Minister of our Youth Parliament. Working with the governing board and my inspiring peers has been amazing. Stressful. Life-changing. We have established a great parliamentary system where it’s “nothing about us without us.”
We have improved projects in Young & Inspired and in the community. I’m exceptionally proud of “Wear and Share,” our idea that many other groups and schools picked up locally, started a youth social action movement. So . many blankets, sports gear, puzzles, etc have found a great new home and loving owners, and we are reducing waste.
We have chosen the theme “Reshaping Possibilities” because this speaks to us, and we are so grateful to Young & Inspired for believing in us. My fellow youth, the future is ours to shape. Let us rise to the challenge with courage and conviction, knowing that our strength lies not in our age, but in our resolve. Together we are unstoppable.

Chair statement
We have made it to 2024. I can't say intact, but we are stronger, more equitable, and more sustainable.
Firstly, I must applaud our Play Parliament. You have worked exceptionally well together to reshape and improve Young & Inspired. The only thing I disagree with is that the term “play” seems misplaced. You have shown remarkable maturity, insight, and social responsibility. The Play Parliament began somewhat like a holiday camp, with teams divided into offices such as the Office of Sports, Culture, and Cabinets, along with Prime Ministers. However, you were ahead of the curve, bringing this governance structure to Young & Inspired, which has truly elevated us to the next level.
Others also deserve recognition. This includes our amazing staff. They strike the perfect balance. They let youth lead and design. But, they step in at the right time to offer support. They ensure a healthy balance of responsibility. Our volunteers gave us their all and saved us a total of £28k in addition to the special vibe that money can't even pay for. Also, our funders have stayed steadfast despite the cost-of-living crisis. This is especially true of The National Lottery Communty Fund, Sport England Hackney Council, St James's Place Foundation and Lloyds Bank. They have given enhanced support for building our capacity.
Despite the financial challenges and rising living costs we’ve faced, I am proud to report that Young & Inspired has thrived. Despite a drop in income, we have managed our finances prudently, ensuring that our programs and services continue to make a meaningful impact. While the government suggests improvements in the UK’s financial position, our surveys indicate a different reality. People are feeling the pinch more than ever before.
If you’re reading this, you’re already part of our mission to support youth. Your involvement and support make a huge difference to our work. We invite you to join us in shaping the future, inspiring change, and rewriting possibilities for the young people we serve.

OUR MISSION
CHILDHOOD BELONGS TO ALL CHILDREN. NO CHILD SHOULD BE FORCED TO GROW OLD PREMATURELY. TOGETHER WE ENSURE THAT ALL CHILDREN SHOULD HAVE A CHILDHOOD WHICH EMPOWERS THEM TO GROW UP NOT OLD.
OUR VISION EVERY CHILD SHOULD ASPIRE TO ACHIEVE BUT NO CHILD SHOULD TAKE THE TEST OF HUNGER, EXLUSION OR ISOLATION.

We have changed our model
To the average person, a close-up view of a blueprint might appear as just a jumble of shapes and lines. Similarly, parenting can sometimes feel like a series of random decisions. Laying a strong foundation, especially in a child’s first five years, sets the groundwork for their future. It’s like creating a blueprint for their life, guiding them to success and fulfillment. Families need stability and the fulfillment of basic needs to establish healthy relationships. Financial instability often leads to arguments, which can be distressing for children and impact their emotional well-being and academic performance. That’s why we’ve evolved our model to prioritize support for families instead of just offering a range of services for children. By addressing the root causes of instability, we create a more supportive environment for children to thrive. This is especially true for young and teenage parents.
13
12
We have 2 pathways of support
Our core clients are usually families with complex needs. They use the pathway depicted below. Oneoff clients, usually children joining without parents, join one or two short-term services. These are seasonal services, such as 6 months of treehouse teens and playscheme. They join to address a short or acute need. ae oer TT TR aa : 7 7 aN \ Y 7 SS yo . \ / ) . , 3 / 1 \q/ = / Mixture of family support, | Meet with the family to which may include O agree what they want signposting, benefit to achieve. advice, and services such as meals through 4 2 supereats and breakfast club, savvy and successful Family meets with the employability Evaluation team to see | Family is assigned a family if they reached their - support worker and work

MEASURING TOOL
Our Family Star measuring tool, part of the Outcome Star framework, is completed collaboratively by families and their support workers to assess changes across seven aspects of family life:

Parenting
Skills and
Confidence
----- End of picture text -----
Health and Wellness Practices Child Development and Educational Progress Access to Financial Support Services and Stability and Budgeting Community Resources Housing Situation and Stability
Communication and Conflict Resolution within the Family
Measuring our impact is straightforward for some families. This is the case for those seeking support for specific outcomes, like providing breakfast for two preschoolers. However, for others, the issues are complex and multi-layered. For them, quantifying progress may be harder. In these cases, our support workers build strong relationships with clients over weeks or months. These relationships enable us to recognize change.
“I’m calling to let you know that you can take our name off the SuperEats regular list. We’ve enjoyed over 60 meals from you this year, and I’m excited to share that I got promoted! With this new opportunity, I’ll be able to afford our meals, and I’m sure others need it more than we do. Thank you tons for the meals! And I’m not even mentioning how Ruchy, my support worker, and my work coach guided me to present my request to my employer. I can’t believe we’re up to here.” Adela W

Sunshine Breakfast Club:
The Sunshine Breakfast Club offers daily brunch for toddlers and preschoolers accompanied by their parents, as well as holiday brunch for children of all ages.
We serve classic favorites such as toast, eggs, colorful veggies, a variety of cereals, and fun yogurts for birthday kids.
“While being served omelettes is a delight in itself, here, a volunteer goes the extra mile to cook them into heart shapes, perfectly nestled in the center of the toast. My toddler is enamoured and so am I. Its hard not to feel touched and loved here.” T.E
“As a mother, I know breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and I never let my children leave without it. However, as the end of the month approaches, I often have to add water to the milk and occasionally skip my own breakfast. I am so relieved that my children start their school day with a full, nutritious breakfast at the Sunshine Breakfast Club. Additionally, a volunteer accompanies them down the road to their schools. It may be a coincidence, but both of their grades have improved since we joined the club.” Bella,
THIS YEAR WE SERVED OVER 12000 BREAKFATS.

SAVVY AND SUCCESSFUL
At Savvy and Successful, we take pride in our innovative approach that challenges traditional employment pathway programs.
We recognize that existing services have not effectively met the needs of our beneficiaries. Instead of offering a predefined pathway, we employ a backto-front approach that empowers participants with agency. This allows them to take control of their journey and develop transferable skills that can lead to employment in ways that best suit them and their families. This approach enables them to drive the change their family needs, adjust pathways as their needs evolve, or even take a unique, untrodden route if it helps them stay and succeed at work.
Our commitment goes beyond the norm by providing specialized support, such as negotiating work-from-home arrangements, flexible work hours, conflict resolution, advocating for living wage payments, and offering prepaid cards for bus fares to assist those with longer commutes and low incomes. Additionally, we offer paid childcare bursaries to support parents during upskilling initiatives.
What truly distinguishes us is our Trade Secrets Soft and Transferable Skills Program. Unlike generic workshops, our program explores unique areas, identifying genuine barriers and facilitating the acquisition of practical, attainable skills.

sUperEATS
SuperEATS is on a mission to make eating effortless for everyone. Inspired by Uber Eats, SuperEats rescues surplus food from events, caterers, and restaurants.
We repackage it in compartmentalized meal containers at a regulated kitchen facility. These meals are labeled and frozen for later delivery, supplemented by milk, fruits, vegetables, and other perishables. SuperEats aims to assist teenage mothers who can’t afford basic food necessities, especially during times of cost spikes, as well as families living hand-to-mouth, reaching the last week of the month with empty pockets. It’s a win-win situation for young recipients, catering businesses, and the environment.
“We have been struggling with money in our family for months now and we were not able to afford even the basics, but receiving charity was too degrading. With the costof-living crisis looming over our heads; it was not a question of Eat or Heat.
We had none. Resignedly we agreed to a referral. Being a part of SuperEats was life-changing. Their meals are delicious, free and delivered right to our doorsteps. The best part was that Young & lnspired n thanked us for saving the planet and avoiding good food from going to waste. lt made us feel a whole lot better. I cannot thank you enough.” Chana Greenwald

Move it Mum
Move it Mum and Infants offers teenage and young mothers a blend of enjoyable and consistent exercise activities that involve their little ones, helping to reduce childcare expenses and fostering quality bonding time.
Whether it’s Pilates, yoga, netball, or Zumba, there’s an activity for everyone. Fitness isn’t just beneficial for physical health; it also supports emotional well-being and serves as a fantastic icebreaker bring people together.
Some mothers are so entrenched in the pressures and demands on them that they cannot believe the magic that happens when they lift their feet off the ground.

Treehouse Teens
Treehouse Teens offers a unique vantage point—an intimate birdseye view of self-discovery for teens who struggle through the system. Far from societal expectations, it becomes a space where teens process thoughts and emotions without judgment or stress.
Teens gather three evenings a week, as well as during half terms and school holidays, in a safe and friendly environment. Here, they connect with peers who share similar experiences and engage in a range of lively and creative group activities designed to nurture their existing interests and explore new ones, especially outdoors and help them with emotional regulation,self-awareness and relationship skills with targeted DBT informed group approach.
Though based in Hackney, an inner city, in our Treehouse, it feels as though we are remote in a rural setting. The rush of cars below the window seems distant, pressures fade away, climate change feels within our control, and opportunities abound wherever we look.
Half-term and holiday sessions are solely naturebased. Some people call it adventure therapy, but we simply call it the great outdoors—casual hiking, scavenger hunts, beach trips, stand-up paddleboarding, rafting, fishing, orienteering, pewter and nature crafting, and park clean-ups

Flying Colors
Flying Colors Art Depot creates a safe space where art becomes an integral part of children`s lives, particularly for those facingmulti-barriers. We believe all youth are curious, imaginative, creative,innovative. We used mixed modality Art as a tool to help troubled primary school aged children emerge from feeling stuck and confined to experiencing a landscape ofopportunities and successes with an element of art therapy.
I excelled in algebra and devoured my sister’s college textbooks long before my classmates tackled their GCSEs. I was prepared to face my A-levels early, thanks to my intellectual prowess. Yet, amidst these academic achievements, there was one subject that completely confounded me: relationships.
Emotions and social cues became a puzzle I couldn’t solve, leaving me feeling lost and isolated. It was bewildering—I felt like everyone else had a manual for navigating relationships, while I stumbled in the dark.
I'm an academic not artistic kid, but the school therapist urged me to try Flying Colors Art Depot. At first i felt like an imposter, I don't do sticky, glitzy, colorful - I found myself experimenting with artistic styles that meant nothing to anyone but took the stress out of me. I also enjoyed DBT principals we chatted about and made my best friends there

Equality Statement
Young and Inspired is dedicated to providing every child with an equitable, healthier, and happier start to life. We believe in challenging our own equality measures to ensure that our services meet the diverse needs of our community. As a BAME-led charity specializing in Charedi Jewish needs, we recognize the importance of filling gaps in service provision for our community. We understand that separate gender, multilingual options, special dietary provisions, and other methods are not exclusive benefits to the Jewish community and could greatly benefit others who are excluded from mainstream services. We have expanded our service user profile and actively strive to make our services accessible to other people on the fringes of communities who share our needs. We also make concerted efforts to reach children and families who may not be known to other services or who have historically been isolated.
Our “Fitting In and Standing Out” campaign has been a tremendous success, emphasizing the value of diversity and inclusion within our organization. Significant progress has been made in enhancing diversity within our staff team and board, particularly in terms of gender and background diversity.

Sustainability
sustainability remains a top priority for us. We commissioned a carbon footprint survey and are pleased with the encouraging results, positioning us ahead of many others in terms of energy efficiency. While we continue to seek further reductions in our carbon footprint, we remain mindful of the broader implications.
Furthermore, our SuperEats project has experienced remarkable growth, rescuing over 40 tonnes of food this year. Through partnerships with restaurants, we have significantly reduced waste, with one restaurant alone filling eight fewer garbage bags annually. We are immensely proud of our young Earth Ambassadors, who successfully launched a pilot program for our Wear and Share initiative. This program collects gently used items such as school cases and sports gear, prepares them, and redistributes them within our community. Not only does this program reduce waste, but it also fosters a sense of belonging and generosity among our members.
