## **Trustees’ Annual Report** 

For the period: from 1/4/24 to 31/3/25 

## **MY TIME FOR YOUNG CARERS** 

Charity number 1155572 

## Objectives and Activities 

My Time’s objective is to provide for the relief of young carers (young carers being defined as persons up to the age of eighteen years who lives are affected in some way because of the need to care for someone at home), in particular but not exclusively by offering respite activities and support for such young carers in surrey and the surrounding area. 

My Time’s current activities are sessions of respite for young carers in and around Epsom and Ewell and Mole Valley. The charity runs activity clubs for children and young people aged between 7 and 15 in Ewell, Dorking, Leatherhead and Dorking. Off-site holiday activities are organised as well. 

## Achievements and Performance 

My Time has had another fun filled year full of new experiences and making new friends and partners. We have enjoyed good membership across all clubs during 24-25. With current membership around 90, Ashtead seniors is becoming more established as young carers move up from the Leatherhead junior group. We have stuck with the format of one junior group having one senior group to move up to and this has worked well in Epsom&Ewell and Mole Valley, although we always welcome any new members, but experience has shown that the members that enjoy juniors tend to stay with us as teenagers for longer. In December we said goodbye to our bank session leader Sarah Alexander and welcomed Julie Marskell to the team. Julie had been a volunteer at Leatherhead juniors but is now a session leader, although she continues to volunteer at Dorking seniors as well. In Sept 24 we introduced a My Time uniform with session leaders now wearing logo sweatshirts and t-shirts, and volunteers purchasing if they so choose. The session leaders have provided a varied programme of events which has included crafts, with yet again a special mention to Jenny our arts & craft director and her fantastic creative talents. However, all our session leaders work hard to create a varied programme the children will enjoy which includes scavenger hunts, park play and thematic party nights. The emphasis though is that the club is theirs and we aim to deliver a programme the members want, so we take time to listen and adapt each club to the space and the member’s personalities. Taking the seniors camping to Polyapes scout campsite in Cobham for a weekend camp is now an annual event. With the help of volunteers and staff we enjoyed two nights in the large scout hut and provided a programme that included ‘My Time Hunted’, 



orienteering with walkie-talkies, tomahawk throwing, grass sledging and decorating baseball caps and mugs. A very huge thank you goes out to all our volunteers who give up their time and a lot of sleep to make this happen! Without their support we would be unable to give the seniors such a well deserved break and all these new experiences for free. Over the year our older young carers have also enjoyed laser quest, rock climbing and bowling. Holiday activities for our juniors have included a day camp at Polyapes campsite and laser tag at Campaign, Cobham, plus pantomime with visits from Father Christmas, not to mention the wonderful art opportunities supplied by Epsom & Ewell council, when they funded artists to attend the Ewell clubs to lead on new art projects, like mosaic and sculptures. A big shout out to the fantastic support we receive from volunteers. We have wonderful teams across all clubs, and cannot thank them enough for their kindness and ongoing support. They provide not only their time and cars, but compassion and support and are always willing to help out with last minute requests. With a special mention to David Robinson who received a Volunteer award for services to My Time from Community Surrey Voluntary Action last October. We have received very generous financial support from St. Faith’s Trust and Children in Need. These funds provide the charity with much needed security and significantly contribute to the core costs which ensure we can use the spaces and employ the staff to deliver the activities the young carers need. Bookham Bowling Club, and recently Epsom Golf Club Ladies Team have been working hard raising funds to help us deliver the fun stuff . We have had continued support from Epsom Rotary Club who donate our Christmas pantomime trip to Epsom playhouse for our junior members and have also given a generous cash donation, thanks to a centenary ball.. Last year they rallied other Rotary Clubs in Ashtead and Ewell so My Timers from Leatherhead and Dorking could attend. Truly Giving a partner charity, for another year have organised and supplied all the Christmas presents (80 plus) which Father Christmas distributed at either our Pantomime trips, or our Christmas parties. These generous donations represent a very large saving to the charity and generate especially delighted faces at Christmas. Support also comes from smaller local organisations and local people who play bingo and run lunch clubs. Ewell scouts continue to let us use their facilities for free and Dorking Quakers make regular donations or nominate us for further support. It’s this community kindness and support that really helps us achieve our mission of giving young carers the time out they deserve. So, as I sign off from this brief resume of all the fun, kindness and community spirit, I would also like to make special mention of our most important success stories and that is our young carers that stay with us as mentors and volunteers when they become adults. Two came to the AGM, Logan and Bella who have been with My Time as children but now volunteer at either Dorking seniors or Leatherhead juniors, plus both come to camp. Those that are not here but are equally awesome are Rosie who helps at Leatherhead juniors and Daniel and Vaughan who are the exuberant children entertainers at Dorking juniors. They are all impressive and brilliant members of the My Time team and we are hugely grateful they have stuck with us. 



## Financial Review 

The charity’s financial situation is robust and there are no concerns regarding the future of the organisation. Our financial reserves are more than sufficient to cope with any unexpected shock or to meet our obligations if forced to close. As a voluntary management committee, we are active in applying for grants and fundraising 

## Structure, Governance and Management 

My Time is a Registered Charity that is managed and administered by a committee of Trustees which includes a Chair, Treasurer and Secretary. In 2024-25 there were 7 Trustees. We meet every three months and communicate as needed/required between meetings. 

The day-to-day operation of the charity is managed by a project manager employed by the charity with support from the charity’s other employees and volunteers
