Structure, Governance and Management

MTV Youth Hampton is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation governed by its constitution.

The Parochial Church Council of St Mary’s Church Hampton may appoint three trustees. Other trustees are elected by the Charity.

The Trustees are responsible for the strategic management of the Charity but the day to day running is the responsibility of the Senior Youth Worker, Nick Neilan.

Objectives and Activities

The object of the CIO is to guide and support children and young people in Hampton (and nearby areas) in their physical, mental, emotional and spiritual development on their journey to adulthood.

To meets its aims, the Charity has three main objectives:

Run a safe, engaging and affordable term-time programme of weekly clubs and activities for young people aged 7-18, where they can hangout, make friends, learn new skills, improve their life opportunities and have fun.
Help young people, including those who are experiencing hardship, by providing them with additional support through our mentoring programme (one-to-one, small group, and peer mentoring).
Further equip and empower young people to fulfil their potential and see transformation in their own lives, as well as in those around them, by providing them with additional guidance and support through our Young Leaders, Sports Leadership and GO! (Girls’ Only!) programmes.

Achievements and Performance

From September 2023 to the end of August 2024, the Charity continued to run very successful youth provision for young people aged 7-18.

Our MTV Juniors programme is for those aged 7-11 years old, and our MTV Youth programme is for those aged 1118+ years old.

Our programme of activities this year included:

MTV Juniors Monday club (4.30pm-5.30pm)
MTV Juniors Friday club (4.30pm-6pm)

MTV Youth Friday club (7pm-8.30pm)
MTV Get Active sessions - small group sessions on Wednesdays 3.30pm-6pm (primary and secondary school age boys), Fridays 3.15pm-4.15pm (primary school age girls) and 7.15pm-8.15pm (secondary school age girls)
Leadership Programme (Junior Council, Junior Leaders, Young Leaders)
Mentoring in partnering schools with children who have an identified need (at Hampton High secondary school and St Mary’s Hampton CE primary school)
Mentoring outside school hours for those with an identified need (this also includes older youth aged 18-24)

These activities were delivered by a well-trained team of part-time staff, adult volunteers and peer-to-peer mentors who are positive role models to the young people and provide them with early and targeted support. We believe that by bringing together the youth, their families, volunteers and local organisations we improve community cohesion in Hampton.

Here are some of the highlights of the past year:

1. The growth of the club and the impact it continues to have on its members

We have supported over 250 young people in the last 12 months.

This was made possible through the extremely generous support of our regular givers and one-off donors, the enormous dedication of our team of leaders and the variety of grants secured for the year (including those from the Hampton Fund, Heathrow Community Trust, Go! London Fund, SYP Trust, Civic Pride Fund, Hedley Foundation, London Youth Getting Active programme, Jack Petchey Foundation, and Bentley Advancing Life Chances), all of which enabled us to expand our staff team and deliver even more impactful work.

The positive impact on our young people can be seen in the results of our annual club survey (April 2024), which was completed by a record 96 club members:

100% said their life was better as a result of coming to MTV.
96% said they had made new friends at MTV.
99% said the clubs and activities that MTV run has improved their skills, e.g. leadership, communication, practical skills.
93% said the clubs and activities that MTV run has improved their mental and emotional health & wellbeing.
85% said the clubs and activities that MTV run has improved their physical health.
96% said the clubs and activities that MTV run had improved their confidence.

2. Our Leadership and employability programmes

In total, 41 young people (aged 11-18) have received training and mentoring to develop their leadership skills this year, encouraging them to become positive role models and to empower those around them. Last year the figure was 26.

A further 9 older youth received training and small group mentoring to improve their life skills and prepare them for the world of work. All confirmed that they had improved their skills and confidence, and that they are now far better equipped for employment and to respond to life’s challenges.

3. Relieving hardship through our expanding mentoring programme

40 young people experiencing hardship have received additional support from us this year through one to one and small group mentoring. Last year the figure was 23 young people.

A quote from one of the young people who has benefitted from this additional support:

“MTV has really helped me to socialise with people my own age, mix with a greater amount of people and it’s given me the confidence to talk to new people which I never would have done before – usually I’d never come to

any clubs where I don’t know people, but this feels really safe, like home. I really look forward to it, especially if I’ve had a rough week at school as I can come to MTV and chill out. Boxing really motivates me. If I’ve had a bad start to the week, I find that I come to boxing and it turns my week around and I have a really good rest of the week. It’s really boosted my confidence.”

4. Evidence of long-lasting positive change in our young people

Our Senior Young Leaders (19-22 years old) continue to make time to volunteer at the club despite their work or university commitments. It has been great to see their ongoing development and hear the positive impact the club has personally had on them.

A quote from a current MTV Leader and former club member (now 19) who started attending MTV when he was 8 years old:

" I’ve been at MTV since I was 8 years old, developing through my teenage years and now into early adulthood. Being at MTV has improved my resilience, confidence and ability to adapt to life’s challenges. I’ve learned good

communication skills, how to set a positive example, and how to engage people from different backgrounds & needs. I help deliver the Leadership Skills Training programme and I really enjoy the fact that I’m now providing a platform for the younger members to develop their skills, giving progression opportunities for the new generation of young leaders coming through. Since I didn’t like school that much, MTV has been so important at making me aware of my strengths. It’s given me a goal and the motivation and training to improve my skills and realise the type of job I want to do.”

Plans for the Future

The Trustees plan to increase the number of trustees, paying particular attention to diversity and particular skills needed by the charity.
The trustees plan to update its IT provision.
The trustees plan to investigate future provision of accommodation for the club.

Public Benefit

The Trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit.

Financial Review

Reserves: It is the policy of the Trustees to maintain reserves amounting to three months of budgeted expenditure which is taken as £15K. At the end of the financial year the reserves of unrestricted funds amounted to £22.5K and so easily exceeded target.

Income:

During the year the Charity received the following grants/donations for which the Trustees are very grateful:

We were also fortunate to receive £3,505 (incl. Gift-Aid) in regular standing orders together with a donation of £2,500 from BigGive and £6,737 (incl. Gift-Aid) in other donations.

A car wash event raised £400.

The total income for the year was £108.7K compared with £60.5K in the previous year, the increase being largely due to an increase in grants to fund extra activities.

Expenditure:

The total expenditure for the year was £90.6K compared with £64.7K the previous year, the increase again being due to an increase in grant funded activities.

Summary:

The General Account showed a small surplus of £3K compared with a deficit of £5K in the previous year. This surplus was sufficient to wipe out the accumulated deficit in the General Fund. Although this is very welcome it still has to be recognised that a large effort has to be made every year to fundraise and to apply for grants just to keep going the basic activities funded through the General Fund. The considerable extra activity comes from projects supported by specific grants and these are self-financing.

Declaration

The trustees declare that they have approved the Trustees’ Report above.

During the year it came to light that pension contributions for some previous years had not been made. The trustees decided that this should in part be rectified by redesignating funds from the Bungalow Purchase Fund. Full recompense has been made for one member of staff but that for the second (former) member of staff was still in progress at the end of the year.
