Trustees’ Report for the year ended 31 March 2023

Services Delivered

We had another challenging year due to the ill-effects of isolation on young people during the Covid-19 period. This caused many youth to struggle with interacting socially and engaging in outdoor youth activities

We delivered services in the following areas:

1. Provided Remote and Face To Face Advocacy / Advice/ Information Services/ Youth & Parenting Advice & Guidance

2. Delivered a three-month Youth life skills programme to help build confidence, resilience including physical and mental well-being in young people

3. Acted as a resource body

Future prospects

The charity is in desperate needs of funds and currently has no paid staff members due to a lack of funds.

The trustees will work to ensure the continuation of services as far as is possible and to work with other stakeholders to strive to enhance and bring the optimum level of benefit to those who need our support the most.
