## INTRODUCTION 

As I come towards the end of my term as a Trustee and Chair of this wonderful charity, it would be only too easy and cosy to reflect on the outstanding achievements of this remarkable charity. 

Over the past 6 years of my tenure with LYC, so many young lives have been changed in a positive and joyous way.  Team LYC and our quite brilliant and dynamic CEO, Guy, have not simply led our charity – they have been inspired and inspiring in equal degrees. And the progress and development was, of course, recognised by the charity winning the prestigious Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service 2021. 

It was with understandable pride, then, that the LYC Board enjoyed seeing Guy, accompanied by Josh Lightbown, Trustee, Peer Mentor and Volunteer, celebrating the award in May this year at Buckingham Palace for a spring garden party, which was held in honour of volunteers from across the UK. 

In fact, pride is an ever-present state for the LYC trustees as we are constantly struck by the drive, energy, commitment, and achievements of our young people too. How could we not be? Just look at what they have accomplished this year - 470 of them engaged in the Our Place in the World Creative & Cultural Education Programme, 30 local young people were supported to complete three significant physical challenges, including a two day 70 mile cycle from Walney Island to 

Morecambe Promenade, a Cross Bay Hike and an epic 8 mile swim, and another group completed our annual challenge by mountain climbing & hiking, abseiling, canoeing and paddleboarding to success in Anglesey. 

So far, so cosy then? Indeed, but there are very real dangers in basking in the good feelings and warm glow associated with such achievements. It is the task of the Board, though, to look forward and attempt to plot a steady course for what are sure to be choppy waters ahead. No one needs reminding that the future is going to be a major challenge financially. We see it in our own circumstances and the lives of our families, friends, and community. As a parting note in my role as Chair, I would urge all of us to consider how best we are going to plan ahead to ensure that LYC is as successful in the future as it is today. 

Maybe the answer is simply to follow the rationale of our charity itself: To focus on overcoming obstacles, building resilience and continuing to celebrate our achievements. After all, our intrepid team of Guy, Sam and Josh set the tone in 

August by completing an epic 260-mile sponsored cycle ride in aid of the charity. The team cycled from Chepstow to Anglesey over five days and raised over £1600 for LYC. Let’s all get on our bikes to make the future for LYC rather than letting it happen to us.

OUR PLACE IN THE WORLD PROGRAMME 

The Our Place in the World Programme provides a platform for young people to develop their personal confidence, self-esteem, and self-efficacy though participation in physical and emotional wellbeing activities, life skills workshops, bespoke outdoor activities, and expeditions. The programme also encourages young people to explore their place in the world and make meaningful, positive changes in their lives and the wider community via 1-1 personal development workshops, creative learning activities and community impact projects. 

Our annual programme is delivered in partnership with professional wellbeing practitioners, sports and fitness instructors, outdoor activity leaders, artists, creative educationalists and youth and community practitioners; enabling LYC to provide an accessible and quality offer to our young people. 

As a targeted youth provision, young people are referred to our programme by local statutory and voluntary organisations including Lancaster & Morecambe Children and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), A.C.E Counselling Services, Lancashire Constabulary, ADHD support services, schools, and colleges. We also receive referrals directly from parents and guardians. 

Once a young person is referred to LYC, they can access a 12-month programme of activity, after which they graduate our programme and are signposted to other relevant services were required. Some young people complete a second year with LYC if they feel the programme has been particularly beneficial for them and we also encourage a small number of young people to train as Peer Mentors, who remain with the programme for a maximum of three years. 

The Our Place in the World programme provides a targeted, youth provision of at least **365** participatory sessions per year which is **FREE** for young people to access.

## 2022 DELIVERY PROGRAMME 

## PHYSICAL WELL-BEING CHALLENGES 

Working in partnership with the amazing team at **BayFit PT Gym** we provided weekly core strength training, cardio workouts and sports activities designed to enable young people to increase confidence, support mental and physical wellbeing, reduce stress, and develop their teamwork and communication skills. 

Thanks to support from our partners at **Lancaster University** , we delivered a three-month indoor climbing project, equipping the team with the skills to safely climb, abseil, and belay. These skills were then tested in the natural world on several outdoor rock-climbing trips. 

Following requests about the possibility of delivery a martial arts project, we partnered with **Krav Maga and Kapap Heysham** to deliver a twelve-week defence-based programme of Krav Maga.  The instructors equipped young people with the skills, knowledge and techniques needed to defend themselves from attacks and to de-escalate possible confrontations, safely and efficiently. 

I 



## EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING & LIFE SKILLS CHALLENGES 

Devised and delivered in partnership with the **Marsh Community Centre** , the Reflections project was a bi-weekly workshop led by professional mental health workers, wellbeing practitioners, outdoor activity facilitators and youth workers. The project equipped the young people with the tools and techniques they need be better manage their emotional health and wellbeing, whilst also providing them with tangible and transferable life skills. 

Earlier this year we launched the **RESTORE** programme at two secondary schools in Leyland, South Ribble, providing a platform for their students to restore their confidence, curiosity, resilience, and emotional wellbeing. 

Thanks to investment from the National Lottery Reaching Communities Fund and the Areti Charitable Trust we delivered the **Time to Breathe** project which included outdoor wellbeing activities, workshops, trips and two emotional wellbeing residentials.

## CREATIVE & CULTURAL EDUCATION CHALLENGES 

In June we concluded the OPITW Creative and Cultural Education Programme, funded by **Curious Minds** and **Lancaster University** . Over the two-year life of the programme, we commissioned **7** professional projects and supported over **700** local young people to produce **100** pieces of visual art, poetry, theatre, spoken word and film that explored the concepts of identity, place and citizenship, whilst also empowering young people to use art and creative practice as a tool for social change. 

To learn more about the OPITW Cultural and Creative Education Programme, click here. 

Working in partnership with **Omar Khan** and his team at **Preston United Youth Development Forum** , we supported a team of young Muslim men from Preston to engage in an intergenerational heritage project. 

Omar wanted to develop this work to educate and inform young Muslim men about the history of their ancestral homeland and the migration of people from the Indian sub-continent to the UK, following the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947. 

This was a perfect project for the Our Place in the World programme, as it encouraged the young people to explore their individual journeys and the collective history of their community. We assisted the lads in producing a short, filmed interview with Yasmin, a community leader who had migrated to the UK in the early 1960s. Watch the film **here** . 

We will continue to work with Omar and his team in 2023, enabling and supporting the young men to produce their own short films and interviews with their community members. The completed films will then be disseminated to community groups and shared with Lancashire Archives.

## COMMUNITY IMPACT CHALLENGES 

Thanks to investment from **Active Lancashire** , we have been sharing our learning and expertise with four youth and community charities across Lancashire to support them in planning and realising their own Community Impact projects. 

We are working with **Strive2Thrive** in **Preston** , to re-wild and refurbish a community allotment and growing space in Ribbleton and supporting **Community Network and Outreach Service in Leyland** to build a community Garden in Moss Side. 

## OUTDOOR CHALLENGES & EXHIBITIONS 

Outdoor challenges and expeditions have been the foundation of our work since our inception in 2015, and in 2022 we delivered two very ambitious projects. 


**----- Start of picture text -----**<br>
II<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br>


Between March and August, we worked in partnership with **Stanleys Community Centre** and **Bay Leadership Academy** to facilitate the first ever Morecambe Bay Youth Triathlon. Together we supported 30 local young people to complete three significant physical challenges, including a two-day, 70 mile cycle from Walney Island to Morecambe Promenade, a Cross Bay Hike and an epic 8 mile swim. 

For more information about the Morecambe Bay Youth Triathlon, click **here** . 

Just weeks after the Triathlon, our team travelled to the island of Anglesey to complete the **Island Challenge** , a week-long expedition designed by our young people and peer mentors. The team traversed across and around the island, by Coasteering, Mountain Climbing & Hiking, Abseiling, Canoeing and Paddle boarding. Watch the Islands Challenge documentary film **here** .

_‘LYC is a highly effective and successful provision both in terms of supporting young people to achieve positive outcomes and delivering long lasting impact for the participants, families, and communities whilst empowering young people to develop self-efficacy and increase their skills and knowledge to take advantage of opportunities available to them.’_ 

## – Referral Partner 

_“To have the trust and responsibility that LYC put into us is an amazing feeling. Feeling proud and people looking up to you as a role model is a bit mad and a new thing for me. I think showing other young people that they can go through what I have and be a success is something to be proud of and I just want to help them to feel good”_ 

- Peer Mentor 

_‘Taking part in this intervention has given our students an opportunity to find their voice and express themselves in ways they wouldn’t believe they were capable of. They have been pushed out of their comfort zones but felt confident throughout due to the patience and kindness of all the staff involved. It has been great to have a variety of activities tackling both physical and emotional challenges. The outdoor adventure day was fantastic and provided a unique experience for our pupils that they will never forget.’_ 

- Kate Green, Worden Academy 

_‘Honestly, LYC has been amazing in making me think about jobs, work, and my future. Like most of my friends I didn’t really know much about working, I feel like because of doing LYC most of all the pressure has been taken away when I’m thinking about it all.’_

## STAFF & VOLUNTEERS 

This year we were thrilled to welcome three new members of staff to the charity, Ian Scholefield, and Emer-Jay Van-Gills, in the role of Youth Support Workers, and Anthony Briggs as Creative Producer. Ian and Emer-Jay attend our weekly programme and provide guidance, pastoral support, and encouragement to our young people. Anthony produces our creative learning programme and manages our external communications. 

LYC would not exist without our team of hard-working and dynamic volunteers and the charity was honoured to receive the prestigious Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service in 2021 which recognised and celebrated the commitment and dedication of our volunteers, trustees, and peer mentors. 

In May 2022, our Chief Executive, Guy accompanied Josh Lightbown, Trustee, Peer Mentor and Volunteer to Buckingham Palace for a garden party, which was held in honour of volunteers from across the UK.
