Introduction from the Chair of Trustees
On behalf of the Trustee/Directors, I am pleased to present the Annual Report for Young People’s Independent (YPI) Counselling. We are dedicated to supporting young people within the Basingstoke community by providing professional counselling services, and this report outlines both our achievements and the challenges we have faced over the past year.
The wider social and economic environment continues to present significant pressures for young people. Rising concerns around mental health—driven by the long-term impact of the pandemic, financial insecurity, educational stress, and the influence of social media— are increasingly evident in the lives of those we serve. Rates of anxiety, depression, and related difficulties remain high, and the demand for accessible and effective mental health support is substantial. Against this backdrop, our services are not only relevant but essential.
This year we have worked to strengthen our counselling provision, ensuring that young people can access high-quality, confidential support at a critical stage in their lives in as timely a manner as possible. We are proud that our counsellors have maintained the highest standards of professionalism and care, creating safe environments in which young people can explore their experiences and develop positive coping strategies. Their contribution to our mission cannot be overstated.
Fundraising has continued to be a demanding area of our work. The economic climate has affected charitable giving nationwide, and our organisation has not been immune to these pressures. Nevertheless, through the efforts of our fundraising team, the generosity of donors, and the support of community partners, we have secured the resources required to sustain our services. Each contribution represents an important investment in the wellbeing of our community’s young people, and we remain deeply appreciative of this support.
We also wish to place on record our thanks to the councillors, staff, and volunteers who enable the delivery of our services. Their commitment, expertise, and ongoing engagement are central to our impact. It is through their dedication that the charity continues to meet its objectives and provide meaningful outcomes for young people.
I am delighted to share that Tamara Smith has joined our board of Trustee/Directors. At Basingstoke College of Technology she is the Student Voice/Events co-ordinator and has already provided some useful insights and support for our work. A warm welcome on board.
As this Annual Report demonstrates, the challenges facing young people in Basingstoke are considerable, but with the continued support of our partners, staff, and community, our charity remains well placed to respond. We look forward to building upon this year’s progress and to further strengthening our role in promoting the mental health and wellbeing of young people in the years ahead.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE'S REPORT
I feel very privileged to be the CEO of YPI Counselling, and I am incredibly proud of the staff and the enthusiasm, commitment and expertise we have in the t e a m . The financial year 2024-2025 has come with its challenges. As some grant funding pots are being cut, we have been exploring different funding streams to increase our robustness and sustainability. In 2024-25 we expanded our counselling service in local GPs, and we are looking to expand further in the coming year in offering a counsellor and well-being practitioner in local GP clusters. We have taken on more placement counsellors in order to nurture the placements, with the potential to offer them paid roles when they finish their courses. The financial year 2024-25 saw a shift from remote to face to face counselling. By the end of 2024, we were offering only face to face counselling, unless the circumstances were extenuating. In this year, we also started to receive some voluntary donations for the counselling and mentoring sessions.
YPls main focuses are:
-
Dedication to young people: we are the only non-statutory provider of youth counselling and mental health support in Basingstoke that has been specifically established for this purpose. For us, supporting young people isn't an 'add-on' or 'nice to have' service but is instead at the heart of who we are, with the full weight of our resources, skills and expertise dedicated to offering a first-class service.
-
Championing community: unlike larger charities who may set up satellite or sub- offices within the area to deliver specific services/contracts, YPI takes pride in being a local charity for local people. As a result of this we hold an unparalleled position at the heart of local youth provision, adapting and developing to meet the needs of our community as they arise.
As always, I would like to thank all staff for their commitment and support over the last year, all staff, both employed and volunteers, have gone above and beyond expectations and it has meant that YPI has been able to offer the best service possible.

VISION, MISSION, PRIORITIES AND VALUES
Our Vision, Mission and Values
Shaping Our Future
The views of young people and their parents or guardians are at the heart of shaping our strategy. The clients are asked to fill in a feedback form at the end of their sessions, and they are asked questions at the beginning and the end of their talking therapies to ascertain how effective the counselling and mentoring has been for them, and we track their improvement.
Our Vision
Young people are able to access more opportunities, and they have the confidence to manage their mental health positively.

STRATEGIC REPORT
OBJECTIVES, ACTIVITIES, ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
YPl's constitutional aims are:
-
To preserve and protect the health and welfare of young people by establishing, developing and maintaining a youth support, information, advice and counselling service for young people in the age range of 11 to 25 years of age in the Basingstoke area.
-
To carry out such activities that promote the health and welfare of young people in the area of benefit, not covered above, as deemed necessary by the charity trustees.
These aims are underpinned by YPl's Vision, Mission and Values and are achieved through YPl's strategic objectives:
-
To maintain and improve our core counselling service,
-
To enhance our services by increasing early intervention strategy through growing the mentoring team
-
To become a more sustainable organisation, by building a portfolio of income generation streams and improving the way we demonstrate impact. In February 2025 we placed a counsellor in another GP surgery.
Throughout 2024/25 YPI continued to deliver the charity's core activities of providing free 1- 2-1 Counselling Services for young people aged 11 - 25 in Basingstoke and Deane. At YPI, we are constantly meeting the needs of the clients, and in 2024/25 we moved completely to face to face counselling, only offering remote counselling/mentoring in extenuating circumstances. The demand for remote counselling/mentoring had dropped significantly, and it is more beneficial to experience face to face counselling.
In addition to the paid staff team, YPl's activities are supported by a team of dedicated volunteers who undertake a number of roles ranging from Trustees and Counsellors. At the end of March 2025, we interviewed and took on 7 new placement counsellors, to nurture and support them on their counselling journey at YPI.
7 | P a g e
YPI continues to improve our website and use of social media to enhance the YPI profile and make it easier for young people to access information about our services.
In the year ending March 2025 the activities and performance delivered by YPI included:
Youth Counselling
Objectives and Activities: YPI provides free counselling to 11-25 year olds offering a confidential and safe space for young people to talk to a professional counsellor about their worries, concerns and difficulties.

HOW WE MEASURE PERFORMANCE
To assess the impact of YPI’s work we use measurement tools at every stage of our service lifecycle, these measures include:
-
Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation (CORE) tool: all clients are asked to complete this internationally standardised clinical questionnaire comprising 10 questions at the beginning of every session/interaction with us. We monitor this score as counselling progresses to evidence any changes in well- being/distress and to monitor risk.
-
End of counselling feedback questionnaire: given to all service users at the end of their interaction with our services, this questionnaire captures feedback ratings on all areas of the service.
-
Life Areas Impact Rating Tool: this measure was rolled out across our counselling services for the first time in 2018. The measure comprises a pre-and-post intervention measure that seeks to capture client's feelings about key areas of their lives such as family relationships, school/work and self-esteem.
Service user involvement
To ensure that our services continually reflect the needs and feedback of the young people, parents and families we serve, we continue to enhance our service user involvement strategy. Our existing provision includes the use of an annual stakeholder survey, end of service feedback forms and suggestion boxes/slips to provide regular feedback placed within all delivery venues.
Statement on Public Benefit
The Trustees have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit and our main activities are described above. The activities by YPI are undertaken to further our charitable purposes for the public benefit in accordance with our aim to promote the health and welfare of young people aged 11 to 25 years of age, in the area of Basingstoke and Deane.

PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS
Plans and objectives for 2025/26
During the forthcoming year we will continue to implement strategies and objectives as outlined in our 3 year strategic plan 2024/27.
We have three strategic aims. These are:
-
To maintain and improve our counselling services by piloting parent, and or family counselling.
-
To enhance our services by offering increased early intervention strategy through mentoring.
-
To become a more sustainable organisation, by building a portfolio of income generation streams and improving the way we demonstrate our impact.
To ensure sustainability please see below:
-
Funding streams - We are seeking further funding streams within the community, such as GP surgeries and secondary schools.
-
Internal services additional funding streams based on demand - We have recognised the need for parent counselling and this is due to rolled out in 2025/26, this will be a paid for service at £35/hour. We have also identified the need for some clients to receive longer term counselling. Currently, we are funded for clients to receive 8 free sessions of counselling and mentoring. For some high level clients who need longer term counselling, we are offering 20 sessions with 8 free of charge and an additional 12 sessions at £35/session.
-
Longer term grant applications - There is an emphasis on grant application to go to YPls core funding. We will look at longer term, larger strategic grants to fund our core services.
-
Donations and contributions will be asked for at the point of counselling or mentoring .
-
Corporate fundraising will be explored.
The Challenges Ahead
-
The Covid-19 pandemic has had an unprecedented impact on young people. YPI is now primarily back to face to face counselling. We have kept a limited amount of remote counselling/mentoring for lower level clients and school refusers. The effects of the pandemic will be felt for years to come and mental health services are under an increasing strain.
-
We will need to be mindful of the cost of living increase when assessing the amount to charge for in-house paid services.
-
We will need to ensure that our existing projects and services remain financially viable and supported through appropriate grant and funding streams. We will need to review our ‘return on investment’ approach to resourcing when launching short term/new projects.
10 | P a g e
-
In order to increase service provision and enhance our core offering we will need to secure all costs, both set up and operational. This includes potentially securing additional office space both for administrative and counselling activities, and gaining additional cybersecurity as Microsoft regulations change.
-
We will need to have the right balance of volunteer and trainee counsellors versus employed and experienced counsellors in order to meet higher levels of demand and to be able to support high risk young people whose mental health needs are often complex.
-
We will need to delegate responsibilities and duties across the organisation, to ensure that new services and staff remain fully supported.
Structure
YPI is a registered charity (a Charitable Incorporated Organisation) in England and governed by a constitution. YPl's objectives are to achieve public benefit as set out in our constitution, and del ~~ivered through our strategic objectives and operating plan, as previously detailed.~~
Governance and Management
Non-Executive Directors I Trustees
YPl's governance is overseen by a board of six voluntary and independent Trustees (Non- executive Directors), each of whom are appointed by the charity's board. Each Director assumes a specific portfolio upon appointment to ensure that all areas of YPl's governance receive due care and attention and is aligned with the specialist expertise of the Director appointed. Through 2024/2025 the Directors were:
Colin Craig (became Chair in Jan 2024) Daniel Holloway - Vice Chair Edward Butler (resigned Jan 2024) Edward Pironti Patrick Holt Tamara Smith (appointed May 2024) Vicky Morley
Chief Executive
Responsibility for the strategic and operational management of the charity is delegated by the Board of Directors to YPl's Chief Executive. The role of the Chief Executive is to provide overall leadership and direction to the organisation and its staff, including managing stakeholder relations, monitoring performance and developing the service as a whole in conjunction with the senior management team.
11 | P a g e
Clinical Services Manager
Responsibility for the clinical management of YPl's core counselling team. The role is to ensure that all young people, parent's and families who are accessing YPl's services receive a first-class service from a team of highly skilled and well supported clinical staff.
Volunteers
The Chief Executive or Clinical Services Manager, as applicable, is responsible for managing the appointment of placement volunteers and ensuring all volunteers receive a comprehensive induction along with ongoing supervision, training and support.
Induction and Training of Trustees, Staff and Volunteers
YPI recruits new Trustees through local adverts and interviews potential new Trustees with reference to a job description and person specification. During the year Trustees have the opportunity to attend relevant insight and development and governance meetings. All of our placement volunteers receive a comprehensive induction along with ongoing, training opportunities and all Counsellors receive supervision support and ongoing training.
Organisational Structure and Decision Making
The Trustees consider governance issues at their regular Board meetings. There are monthly committee meetings with the Trustees to ensure all governance issues are regularly addressed. The Trustees delegate responsibility to the CEO for ensuring that service provision is carried out within the overall charity's strategy; for overseeing the charity's progress in meeting its objectives; and ensuring that the charity meets its legal and financial obligations.
Key Management Remuneration
The CEO and the Clinical Services Manager comprise the key management personnel of the charity in charge of directing and controlling the charity and running and operating the charity on a day to day basis.
RISK MANAGEMENT
YPI has in place adequate governance arrangements that enable the identification, escalation, monitoring and reporting of risks. The YPI Board is ultimately responsible for reviewing, challenging and approving the charity's overall strategy and the direction of the business.
12 | P a g e
We currently adopt five risk types which form the basis of YPl’s risk register and Board reporting:
-
Strategic: refers to the risk that YPI suffers a substantial, negative impact in its funding or capital as a direct result of poor management of its business objectives, strategic aims and core services
-
Financial: refers to the risk that YPI is unable to self-fund, primarily due to a lack of financial donors whether new or existing and unforeseen operational losses, leading to a disruption to the charity's cash flows and balance sheet
-
Operational: refers to the risk of operational losses due to inadequate or weak processes and systems, including the charity's IT infrastructure. The risk also includes direct and indirect losses due to poor or ineffective oversight of internal controls and external influence
-
People: refers to the risk that YPl's key services are not delivered adequately due to a lack of people’s capability, skills and availability
-
Reputational: refers to the risk of YPI suffering a material loss or reputational damage, most likely in the form of simultaneous withdrawals of funding, caused by a negative perception of its image and working practices
A risk register is reviewed and updated regularly and discussed at Board meetings. These are risks to the charity with the potential to damage its reputation and existing stakeholder relationships, preventing the business from running successfully thus ultimately impacting on YPl's ability to undertake its compliance monitoring activities effectively.
