Delivery
The 2020 financial year was a period of mixed delivery for Wymondham Youth Bus due to the Covid-19 outbreak and the national lockdowns and restrictions implemented by the Government.
At the outset of 2020 building on from 2019 we continued to deliver our youth engagement programmes in different community areas, prioritising those known for anti-social behaviour and being an accessible resource to young people in communities.
Unfortunately for the remainder of the 2020, with the exception of our summer Outdoor cinema project, we were unable to use the Bus to deliver projects due to the social distancing measures, the lockdown restrictions and the health and safety regulations.
During July and August in the school summer holidays when national lockdowns were lifted we were able to deliver a number of different outreach activity days in communities in Wymondham and Norwich. Under social distance guidelines and full PPE measures we were able to provide an outside cinema experience particularly supporting families who had children on free school meals. We provided healthy fresh fruit smoothies and snacks and the opportunity for socially distanced engagement with the families. Many families said this was the first time they had been out of their houses in six months and whilst initially they were anxious about they commented about how safe they felt and were able to enjoy some social interaction in their household bubbles.
In 2021 we look forward to be able to developing our delivery again in a post-lockdown climate.
Fundraising
Following our grant fundraising in 2019 we were able to successfully secure grants in 2020 towards the cost of running the project and delivery.
This fundraising area will form part of an ongoing plan to raise funds for the Charity and we plan to develop this further in 2021 as we undertake delivery again.
Future plans
Trustees have met and discussed the plans to expand the work of the Charity in 2021 and extend its outreach to local communities, and specific areas have been identified where this delivery will take place from.
Trustees are committed to maximising opportunities for young people, and working with other organisations, schools and churches to help facilities youth and community engagement programmes.
