## **Objectives and activities** 

The objects of the CIO are: 

The Charity "Arts 2 Heal" is set up for the promotion and protection of health specifically the mental health of vulnerable individuals. The people who can benefit from this charity are: Adults and young people with general mental health issues. Adults and young people who self-harm or would self-harm. 

The main activities undertaken for the public benefit are mainly: 

We provide arts-based intervention for individuals with mental health issues and come from a socio/economically deprived background. 

The primary aims are to provide structured art-based group interventions which are healing and transformative. This will help individuals, particularly those, who feel isolated, re-engage with society and move on with their lives in a positive way. We provide one to one support to personalised learning and monitor progress to ensure expectations are met and targets for each individual are achieved. 

The secondary aims are to develop skills deemed valuable in employment, education and/or volunteer work. These skills include communication, confidence, team-work, and organisational skills, in view of supporting the individual to re-engage with society. 

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

The CIO carries out a wide range of activities in pursuance of its charitable aims: 

Our blended approach of delivery with online and face-to-face workshops are working successfully to help those who are vulnerable and housebound long-term. These are likely to continue. 

Key achievements 2020-2021 include: 

Online: The online exercise classes proved successful with high numbers of participants. Strategies are in place to pilot test combing with face-to-face classes. Measure and review success for long-term 

Participants: Secured a sizeable amount ring fenced for the BAME community from the Baring Foundation. Successfully deliver the Discovery Arts Award pilot to 15 young people. 

New Partnership Work: Partnership work with Arc and Blackburn Carers is proving popular and growing. Secured long-term contracts with Blackburn with Darwen Council ESOL social mixing groups. 

Arts 2 Heal Centre Development: Damp has been resolved in basement storage area and kitchen / consultation room is complete. The additional space means we can expand class sizes.

New Pilots: Music workshops with Danny Helm (MA arts health) to pilot test with Harmonica workshops and progress onto string instruments if all goes well. Develop partnership work with The Bureau Centre for the Arts with the festival of lights band. To introduce a wider range of Arts and artists working with the groups. Develop a strategy to recruit external artists for delivery work. Forest school workshops were successful with University of Blackburn College. The demand for outdoor based workshops is rising. Creatively delivered IT workshops are much needed, priority is to secure funding specifically. 

Need to ring-fence funding which is non-lottery for the demand from mosque youth groups. 

Volunteers have taken responsibility of social groups including knit and natter groups and small craft workshops for festivals and celebrations. Successfully keeping the WhatsApp support group active. Volunteers are taking key roles in delivery particularly the ESOL workshops. We have recruited several new volunteers and offered work placements to college/university students. 

Awards/ nominations: We were awarded with the QAVS with a special award for the work delivered through Covid-19. We also won The Lancashire Telegraph Community Heroes 2021 Award and came second place in the Community Rail Awards “Involving diverse groups”. Nominations were made by partner organisations and not own members therefore we are especially proud of the team. 

Performance of fundraising activities against objectives set: To explore new opportunities to generate unrestricted funds. Buy/hire a card reader to take payments instantly as more donors / potential art buyers are claiming not to be carrying cash.
