## **Creative Director and Chair’s Report** 

I am delighted to report that the year 2021-2022, despite Brexit and COVID, was a year of solid performance at NICOLA. 

Our main activity has continued to be training and development of young people in music, dance, arts and arts job skills, concentrating mainly in helping them to prepare plans in running and create Solo Trader or Company business, media communication and brand promotion. The quality of our services has remained high; helping young people to improve their lives, providing a supportive environment to allow them to develop their personalities, their talents, preparing and helping them to build their self confidence, to find suitable education and/or employment both in the artistic field and outside or to run their own business or Social Enterprise. Keeping their mind busy, on positive initiatives, has also helped them to recover from COVID restriction's crisis. 

The support from the European Commission through the British Council and Ecorys has run through this year assuring us projects till summer 2023. Our relationship with Housing Associations, local Youth Clubs, Youth Hostels, The K&C Foundation, Chelsea Football Club Foundation and Volunteering Centres has increased as we supported each other through online interaction in those hard times. In addition we have also receive private donors funding supports and were offered a free POP UP shop by Hatton Garden Proprieties Ltd in November 2020, the local support was amazing, we received a great deal of donations, which enable us to set the shop in less than a week, creating an artist innovative shop where artisans can sell their creation while recycling and up-cycling is highly promoted. We believe that this can be NICOLA future way to generate income to support artists and youth people. 

At NICOLA centre we also have a fully equipped recording studio for the young people personal and professional growing/development, which was not use the entire year. Our weekly car-boot selling was stopped due to COVID for half of the year. As always we put particular effort into working with young people with socio/economic obstacles who cannot afford professional training. We engage and facilitate learning in a non-formal way and prepare young people for life after their interaction with NICOLA. In order to achieve this, we make sure we work closely with our local community, youth clubs, Housing Associations and like-minded Organisations. 

NICOLA engages young people aged between 13 to 25 and up to 30 years old through the Erasmus+ projects. Due to the fact that our young people plan and deliver the projects, it enable them to be in charge of those projects, give the chance to many of them to progress further education or employment, becoming mentors to other young people and/or start their own freelance work or Company. 

We are very grateful to our young interns and volunteers for their dedication and commitment to NICOLA and are very happy that many of them gained paid jobs as result of practice and growing in confidence while at the Charity. Our strong relationship with Universities in London and Europe has enabled us to accommodate just graduated students giving them the chance to explore the professional work through a friendly environment. We still keep a creative connection between disadvantage youths from London and Leeds, with the endorsement of celebrity dancer "Sadie Flower". We have planned few projects with the young people and we hope to receive financial support very soon. 

Our young people continue to plan and apply for funding and always look at ways to improve and develop positive initiatives. They are meetings on a regular basis. Our work would not have been possible without the professionalism and dedication of our volunteers and free-lances. 

Good working relationships and practices have been developed with the British Youth Council, Ecorys, Schools, Youth Clubs, Arts groups and Municipalities all around Europe. NICOLA through the Erasmus+ projects has also developed strong relation with likeminded Youth Organisations and Institutions around the globe. In March 2021 we accommodate a Spanish young person, in London, through the Young Entrepreneur program; we also had many self-funded interns. Our members were 100% involved in the planning of the projects. 

NICOLA is still very young, but we are looking at ways to improve our financial and structural methods and look at ways to grow bigger and better and serve further young people. 

Special thanks will go to our Trustees who are investing their time to assure that NICOLA reaches the best practise possible.
