From 01/04/2022 Period start date To 31/03/2023 Period end date Charity name: Fusion Family and Youth Projects

Charity registration number: 1159563

Objectives and Activities

SORP reference
Summary of the purposes of
the charity as set out in its
governing document
Para 1.17 To help families and young people through the
provision of support and activities which
develop their skills, capacities and capabilities.
This is to enable them to participate in society
as mature and responsible individuals. We do
this by developing and applying a variety of
interventions that support children, families,
and young people in a range of issues that have
an effect on their quality of life including:
bullying, mental health, sexual health, sexual
exploitation, drug and alcohol abuse and
domestic abuse
Summary of the main
activities in relation to those
purposes for the public
benefit, in particular, the
activities, projects or
services identified in the
accounts.
Para 1.17 and
1.19
The main activities are provision of term time
youth clubs for 8-17 year olds (up to 25 years
for young people with additional needs) and
school holiday activities for 8 – 17 year olds.
Fusion Seniors Orange T-shirt Project (14–17-
year-olds)- Fusion seniors is a weekly youth
club for volunteers and young people wanting
to volunteer in clubs and events in the local
community. The group is mainly social, but also
offers training sessions, mental wellbeing
subject discussions and the opportunity to sit
as a group to eat and share weekly news.
12 Orange T-shirt volunteers went on a 2-day
training residential to Grafham Water. They
completed their Leadership training and
worked hard to plan an engagement event to
promote Fusion and discuss the possible
building project. This weekend was supported
by Stephanie Webb, Youth and Community
Coordinator (Huntingdonshire) Cambridgeshire
County Council, who delivered the training.
Sarah Jane Gaul, Communications Officer
Huntingdon Town Council, helped the young
people with the engagement event,and

training them on how to answer difficult questions. Fusion Gateway (young people with additional needs ages 12-25) - this is a club for the young people to make friends, play games, do sports, arts, and cooking. As some of the young people are older, we do sessions about independent living including cooking simple meals. Fusion Juniors (school years 7-9) - Fusion Juniors is a weekly youth club for young people to take part in arts and sports activities. We often have a weekly theme based on issues that affect our young people like bullying, peer pressure and healthy relationships. Fusion Funky Monkeys (ages 8-11) - Funky Monkeys is a weekly club for our young people to come to make friends and have fun. We offer sports, games, arts and crafts, transitional work for the year 6's getting ready to move up to senior school, and healthy food cooking. This group is our busiest and regularly has over 40 young people in attendance each week. All clubs provide a planned and appropriately delivered quality curriculum, which stimulates and extends young people’s social and life skills. All activities aim to provide young people with opportunities to develop healthy relationships with their peers and adults, learn risk management and develop high level life skills. Skateboarding Project - Funding from Living Sport enabled Fusion to run an 8-week Skateboarding Project. The funding paid for helmets, skateboards and safety pads for 10 young people that the young people could keep after the lessons. Skateboarding is now an Olympic sport and very popular with young people but a lot of the families Fusion work with would not have the money to be able to take up this sport safely. Once the basics have been learnt the young people can attend one of the local skate parks for free with their families and friends this makes it incredibly sustainable as long as the young people have the equipment needed. The skateboard community at skate parks vary in ages and they are really supportive, with older young people often taking the time to teach and encourage the younger ones . The young people who take part in the project will not only be able to spend more time outdoors and off computers but will become part of a community and

maybe mentor others sharing the skills they
learnt.
Home Work Club (ages 8-14)- Working in
conjunction with the Huntingdon Communities
Officer, this is an accessible, free provision to
enable young people aged 8 - 14 to: study,
complete homework, undertake revision and
learning tasks and access the internet and
library in a friendly, safe and secure
environment.
In- School Projects– Fusion staff deliver
weekly groups in two local senior schools,
working with referred groups of up to 10 young
people. They deliver bespoke packages which
can support mental wellbeing with sessions
around, feelings, safer relationships, county
lines, self-harm, internet safety etc.
Fusion Family trips
- This year Fusion organised two trips in
partnership with HCAP (Huntingdon
Community Action Projects). In October half
term 18 adults and 28 of their children visited
Shepreth Wildlife Park and in February 17
adults and 22 of their children visited Sacrewell
Farm. Fusion and HCAP were able to pay for
their tickets, coach and a packed lunch for all
the families. Most of these families do not have
transport or spare money to allow them to go
on day trips as a family. This work broadens the
scope of work Fusion delivers and helps start to
forge early relationships with children and their
families.

Achievements and Performance

SORP reference
Summary of the main
achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.
Para 1.20 During the year, Fusion has worked with
approximately 174 different young people
aged 8-25 as well as 35 parents with their 50
younger children. The opportunities offered
have helped young people to socialise again
after the Covid pandemic and provided a safe
place for them to talk about issues they may be
facing.
As well as running term time clubs, Fusion has
been able to access funding from HAF (Holiday
Activities and Food) to provide school holiday
activities. The funding is for children who
access free school meals but Fusion uses
funding from other sources to open this up to
other local children who may not have free
school meals but still face many issues. One
week was organised for the Easter break and
four weeks in the Summer when an extra 20
young people, not on free school meals, were
able to attend.
It has been shown that accessing positive
activities like this contributes to crime
reduction by reducing engagement in anti-
social and/or criminal behaviour.
We are very grateful to all our funders
including the second-year funding from the
Garfield Weston Foundation and for the
unrestricted funding received from local
organisations: Huntingdon Freemen’s Trust,
Hinchingbrooke Foundation and Hartford
Church. The commitment of our funders has
meant that Fusion has been able to continue to
help young people learn new skills, raise their
aspirations, become active members of their
community, and make friends.

Total Income during this period was £60,142 Details of specific restricted grants received are shown in the accounts under Financial Activities by Donor.

Financial Review

Financial Review
Review of the charity’s
financial position at the end
of the period
Para 1.21 Fusion Family and Youth Projects were in a
sound financial position at the end of March
2023. A carry forward of £45,596 was largely
due to second year funding from Garfield
Weston, together with funding from local
organisations. Much of the carry forward was
committed for future expenditure on salaries
and resources to comply with the conditions of
grants but it meant the charity was able to
continue to plan for the future and to have
money in reserves in case of funding problems.
Statement explaining the
policy for holding reserves
stating why they are held
Para 1.22 The Charity seeks to maintain a level of
reserves that would cover administrative costs,
including core staff, insurance and payroll for 6
months.
