ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities
The context of this financial year
In 2024/25 Brent's children and young people have continued to struggle in the aftermath of the cost-of-living crisis and the pandemic. As one of the most deprived boroughs in London, the inequality gap has deepened and expanded during this time. Nearly 4 in 10 children live in poverty, driven primarily by high housing costs, Brent is consistently above London (35.2%) with rates between 39.5-40.9%.
Temporary accommodation use has surged by 44% since 2021, with 3,194 children affected, with a high demand for support services with 34,000 on housing waiting lists vs 650 homes annually. We hear from young people and our members of the impact on children and young people who experience temporary housing - educational disruption, lack of study space and long school journeys, increased anxiety and mental health problems. 68% of school staff report more children don't have enough money to buy adequate food.
For young people in Brent experiencing poverty, housing instability and violence exposure (high crime wards) - the impacts multiply exponentially, creating toxic stress that shapes lifelong trajectories.
Our members tell us that while need is increasing, their access to core and even project funding is decreasing. It is not surprising therefore that over a quarter of members feel concerned about the future of the youth sector. Research consistently demonstrates that stable relationships, basic needs support, educational advocacy and trauma informed care are the most powerful protective factors against lifelong negative outcomes.
In 2024-2025, Young Brent Foundation reaffirmed our status as a linchpin of youth empowerment, capacity building and cross sector partnership in one of London's most diverse and socioeconomically challenged boroughs. Through stewarding significant resources, advancing cultural competency and launching collaborative programmes with a sharp focus on intersectionality and youth -led practice. This report details the income, outcomes and stories underpinning our work.

Young Brent Foundation
Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2025
John Lyon's Charity - John Lyon's Charity provides grants, support and guidance to benefit children and young people up to the age of 25 who live in nine boroughs in North and West London. The Charity distributes around £12 million in grants each year, of which Brent benefits from direct funding and collaboration - £1.5 million per annum. Vital long-term support and commitment from John Lyon's Charity to provide core funding, continues to enable YBF to thrive locally.
Young People's Foundations - YBF is part of the Young People's Foundations (YPF's), a model set up by John Lyon's Charity to address the ongoing pressures on the Children and Young People sector. YPF's bring together the public, private and voluntary sectors to effect positive change for young people. Based in local communities, each YPF is an independently registered charity, and their services are led by their members and based on the needs and assets of their area. Together they share a common goal - to help create and champion a more impactful, co-ordinated, and sustainable sector to ensure all young people have access to quality support and opportunities.
As of March 2025, Young People's Foundations exist in nine London boroughs and include: Young Barnet Foundation; Yong Brent Foundation; Young Camden Foundation; Young Ealing Foundation; Young Hammersmith & Fulham Foundation; Young Harrow Foundation; Young Westminster Foundation; Young Kensington & Chelsea. Other areas across London are also creating Young People's Foundation.
Youth Futures Foundation - is an independent, not-for-profit organisation established in December 2019 with £90m endowment from the Reclaim Fund to improve employment outcomes for young people from marginalised backgrounds. Our joint ambition is to narrow employment gaps by identifying what works and why, investing in evidence generation and innovation, and igniting a movement for change so all young people have fair access to good quality jobs.
London Borough of Brent - YBF has contributed to the development of two important strategies, Brent's Youth Strategy and Brent's Employment and Skills Strategy. YBF engaged in regular partnership meetings including LB Brent Early Help, Safer Brent Partnership, Young People's Trust, Partnership for Young London, THRIVE (mental health), Brent Young People's Alliance (mental health), Meta Network (CVS Brent accountability group), London Youth Violence Network, Healthwatch Brent Advisory Board (The Voice of Young People) Brent Strategic Sports and Physical Activity group and Metroland.
Metropolitan Thames Valley Housing, Hyde Housing and Peabody Housing - Over the past 12 months this partnership has secured funding from Youth Futures Foundation, to include the research of barriers to employment in Brent. Developing local networks and trusted relationships is key to enabling young people to lead, influence and inform the design of future projects and services. The young people will be supported by the extensive expertise of the Young Brent Foundation, grassroots membership organisations, local youth workers and housing associations via on the ground teams.
Membership
YBF has over 150 members who are categorised as delivery partners. These are organisations and or individuals who work directly with young people. We have 9 large scale partners (Housing Associations, The Princes Trust, Street Games, LB Brent, WSF, Quintain and Kiln Theatre) plus other VCS / charitable organisations in the community. Significant developments with the 'mapping' of membership on the YBF website has taken place and is now live for all members/potential funders and the community to access. The website has a link to the places in Brent where members deliver and linked to individual organisations websites and/or Facebook accounts.
From meetings and site visits with some members we can report a year-on-year growth in family engagement and session attendance, with some organisations reporting a 4000% rise in participation due to YBF's capacity building interventions. By partnering with YBF, Unique Community expanded in-school arts and drama sessions, increasing accessibility or under served groups. Peer to peer learning and local facilitator training now drive the next generation of youth leaders.

Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2025
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
Our finances are in good order with reserves which will be used to support the direct work we do to support the VCS youth services in Brent. Our core revenue came from London Borough of Brent, and we also secured additional revenue from a variety of sources of which 90% of this has been used to deliver support and services which directly impact on young people in Brent.
For the year ended 31 March 2025, incoming funds of £907,965 (2024: £984,751) were received and outgoing expenditure amounted to £801,438 (2024: £1,284,358). This resulted in net income for the year of £106,527 (2024: Deficit £299,607 ) and net current assets of £234,876 (2024: £130,642).
Reserves policy
It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three- and six-month's expenditure. The Trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity's current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year.
The Financial Sub-Committee has established a reserves policy as part of its plans to provide long term support to Young Brent Foundation. The Financial Sub-Committee calculate the reserves as that part of the Foundation's unrestricted income funds that is freely available. As at the year end the charity had overall reserves of £238,560, with £10,193 being unrestricted.
Principal risks and uncertainties
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.
Principle risks - Our finances are in good order with reserves which will be used to support the direct work we do to support the VCS youth services in Brent. Our core revenue comes from John Lyons Charity. Going forward the charity will need to secure further core funding streams as it aims to grow and thrive.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document

Trustees, Staff and Young People Awayday
We held our AGM as well as an Awayday involving all Board and staff. The purpose of this day was for the staff and trustees to:
-
Get to know and RECONNECT with each other
-
REFLECT and take stock of what has been a particularly challenging period
-
LOOK AHEAD to what YBF will accomplish over the next five years.
The Away day acknowledged key risks regarding the Anchor Youth Hub. However, we also acknowledged our strengths in building relationship and managing significant resources as well as generating collective impact through over 100 partnerships.
Apart from the founding charity trustees, every trustee must be appointed for a term of three years by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of the charity trustees.
In selecting individuals for appointment as charity trustees, the charity trustees must have regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the CIO.
Principle risks and uncertainties facing the charity
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.
Principle risks - Our finances are in good order with reserves which will be used to support the direct work we do to support the VCS youth services in Brent. Our core revenue comes from John Lyons Charity and the City Bridge Trust. Going forward the charity will need to secure further core funding streams as it aims to grow and thrive.
Uncertainties facing the charity - The impact of the pandemic, rise in energy bills and the high levels of families requiring support, all have an impact on the charities ability to thrive and grow through these trying times. As we look to grow and sustain our base in the borough, the charity will need to pivot and adapt in the changing times ahead.
