Trustee's Annual rePort
The Seventh Year of Rise:61
www.rise61.org
2020/21 was an important year for us here at Rise:61 as we grew in capacity and impact. We recruited two part time professional youth workers (one full time equivalent) in April 2021 who launched our Creative Hub project and detached work. We responded to the 'new normal' created by the pandemic by surveying over 100 local young people and collated their results into an infographic report which will inform our work and plans going forward. We have decided to conduct our report based on our charitable objectives not on our strategic plan this year.
CHARITABLE objectS EVALUATION
Objective 1. To advance the Christian faith.
Our project aimed at this objective is called 'Life Group' which is designed to help young people aged 8-13 yrs be aware of the Christian story and the significance it plays in many of our staff and volunteers' lives. We met outdoors at our community garden in bubbles when restrictions allowed but went back to meeting online on Zoom during the lockdowns in Nov 2020 and Jan - Mar 2021. These zoom meetings were fairly well attended with 5 young people on average and we mostly played online games and took them through a short reflection on a relevant topic including anger, fear, faith, love and hope. In the summer terms our Mon night Life Group linked with the Creative Hub to run some taster sessions. We also continued to use the free food we got for the Life Group project to support the wider community on Sunday afternoons with a free food giveaway. Here's some feedback from the group:
“ Rise:61, has been really helpful [to] lots of children, to calm them! They have been really helpful' Ali.
“ I love everything, because it is always fun, but covid ruined it. But it was fun, and the leaders are amazing and so kind ” Olivia.
In conclusion, we met our objective to advance the Christian faith by continuing to offer this project despite the challenges of lockdown and by showing the young people and wider community practical love and care. We are keen to improve on this work and provide more opportunity for those interested to explore the Christian faith in a culturally appropriate way and hope to secure funding to able to facilitate this.
Objective 2a. To advance in life young people through the provision of recreational and leisure time activities provided in the interest of social welfare, designed to improve their conditions of life.
We continued to provide a free after school 'Bike Club' on Wednesday afternoons and kept this going during the lockdowns with online meetings on Zoom. We also used these to just touch base with our 6 bike club members and play online games or bike related quizzes. The members and their parents were very appreciative of these efforts. We also continued to partner with Wilts Councils Sports Development Team on the 'Doorsteps Sports Club' which provides a free after school club for up to 50 children and young people on a Tuesday night. This recovered well after the pandemic and was very well attended over the summer term.
After employing two part time staff members in April we were able to launch our Creative Hub in the summer term with 10 'taster sessions' where young people got to tie- dye t-shirts, make clay models and learn how to make short videos on iPads and with a GoPro. These sessions were very popular with up to 15 in attendance and allowed us to make lots of new contacts as well as see what creative activities were most popular. We finished the year by painting another street art mural with a local artist which was featured in the local newspaper.
Our other new youth worker re-launched a detached project focused on walking the streets and talking to young people in community where they are at. This approach is at the roots of Rise:61 and allowed us to make lots of new contacts and survey over 100 local young people to make sure that we were offering the right recreational and leisure time activities going forward. It also allowed us to provide a safe and reassuring adult presence in the community for young people during this incredibly challenging time of restrictions and anxiety caused by the global pandemic.

Objective 2b. To advance in life young people through providing support and activities which develop their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as mature and responsible individuals.
We focused on achieving this objective mainly through our Alternative Provision work by providing sessions at our Bike Hub and Community Garden for two local schools, the local secondary school and a Pupil Referral Unit (PRU). These happen during school hours and not only teach them practical skills like bike mechanics, woodwork and landscaping but also help them contribute to society by upcycling bikes and improving a communal area. All the young people we worked with were at risk of becoming NEET (not in education, employment or training) and falling into crime or drugs or both. A highlight of the year was taking some of our students on a trip to a local mountain bike centre.
Through the Alternative Provision we engaged with 15 individuals over the year with 206 separate contacts. The total hours of sessions provided was 305 and this provided 3 volunteers with 160 hours of volunteering time. Here is what one pupil had to say about us:
“ Even when I was going through difficult times in my life… and I wasn’t having great times at school, it was always there… and it gave me that will to keep trying with school… and it’s like a de-stresser with me.”
“Up here they do want to help you… and they do a good job of it and if you need to speak to them about something serious, I know for a fact I could get his advice and he would, like 100%, help me out and try to steer me on the right path not the wrong path .” Jake, interview at Bike Hub, Dec 2020.
achievements and performance
We feel we responded well again to the continued challenges of the pandemic in 2020/21, as the third lockdown from Jan - Mar was the only time we weren't able to run any direct services. However we were still able to stay connected with most of our young people virtually. As an organisation we were able to use the reduced delivery time productively by raising more funding from grants which allowed us recruit 2 part time professional youth workers and launch the Creative Hub as well as do detached work again and complete an in depth survey of where young people were at on our estate. Our aim to improve the community garden was also achieved through increased grant funding and developing another alternative provision placement to deliver on the funding goals. However, we do recognise we need to do more to deliver on our first charitable objective and need to improve our monitoring and recording so we have more figures to help show our impact.
STATEMENT OF PUBLIC BENEFIT
Due to all the activities and projects described above we believe that in 2020/21 we as an organisation were of public benefit and were faithful to our charitable objectives. Through the provision of the recreational and leisure time activities in art, sports and cycling we were able to improve their conditions in life and we were also able to develop their skills and capabilities through the Bike Hub's provision of alternative education. We were also able to advance their knowledge of and appreciation of the Christian faith in an indirect way through our support and practical assistance during the pandemic. The trustees, in making decisions about our activities have always had due regard to the commission's public benefit guidance when exercising any powers or duties to which the guidance is relevant.
GOVERNANCE
One trustee stepped down in September 2020 but due to new trustee's joining at the end of the last financial year we had a team of at least 6 trustees throughout the year. The team has a wide range of skills and we are now seeking to develop it further by recruiting young people we've worked with in the past onto the trustee team. We continue to take the governance of our charity very seriously and have booked in further safeguarding training for trustees to ensure we are well placed to oversee this. We are satisfied with our fundraising performance as we more than doubled our annual income from the previous year mainly through grants. We continue to seek to increase our income from individual donors and trading so that we continue to build a solid foundation from which to sustain our growth.

Thank you...
None of this would be possible without the faithful support of our regular donors and grant givers, alongside the service, professionalism and sacrifice of our staff, volunteers and trustees.
May our team continue to be a prayerful presence on the estate and keep bringing hope to this wonderful community.
'‘Rise:61 are the ideal partners for anyone wanting to make a difference in this community and see the negative narrative around Bemerton Heath be transformed.’
The future...
In 2021/22 we are hoping to continue to grow our capacity to help young people on Bemerton Heath tell a different story with their lives.
We want to launch our Active Hub, which will provide a range of physical activities for young people, and do more to improve young people's mental health. We have plans to run more trips away, increase our mentoring, and invest in young people as leaders on the estate. We are also excited to start having community events again which feels so important after years of restrictions.
