## **POP’s Annual Report FY 1[st] April 2022 to 31[st] March 2023** 

**FY 22/23 has been a busy and varied year, the highlight coming at the end of the financial year when we were chosen as the “charity of choice” by the Bracknell Town Mayor, acknowledging the support we are able to give local foster children and care leavers. We are and should be extremely proud.** 

**In addition, it should be noted that we have manged to increase our income by nearly 18%.** 

## **CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES** 

## **Maths and English Tuition for Foster Children** 


The educational data paints a bleak picture. At Key Stage 2, for reading, writing and mathematics, only 37% of looked-after children reached expected standards, compared to 65% of non-looked-after children. Just 7.2% of looked-after children achieved the grade 5 ‘good pass’ threshold in English and mathematics GCSEs, compared to 40.1% of non-looked-after children. 

So once again we continue to provide Maths and English tuition in partnership with Bracknell council. In addition to higher attainment levels in English and Maths we have seen improvement in children’s self-esteem, confidence, and willingness to engage at school. A marked difference to their attitude before the tuition. 

In summary the foster children have access to 9 sessions per month, the centre is open 6 days per week and the children work in groups of up to 6 per tutor. Each child has an individual learning plan to match their ability level and speed of learning. 

This year we have spent over £3,000 on this tuition. 



2 

## **Post 16 Educational Support** 

All foster children attract some extra funding (Pupil Premium Grant or PPG) up to the age of 16, but that is not available to Post 16 learners. This leaves a significant hole in their post 16 education and support and can cause some major issues in their ability to continue their education, or even consider future courses, apprenticeships, or university. 

As expected, this year we have supported several post 16 learners, for example, one student moved from level 1-4, an amazing achievement which highlights why our support is so essential in changing children’s outcomes. We also arranged for another student to have 1:1 tutor session for History and RE prior to their university entrance/assessment. 

This is a project which we will expand in future years, and we are now also working with Wokingham Borough Council to support their post 16 learners. 

## **University Bursaries** 


Only 6% of fostered children go on to further education, compared to a national average of nearly 50%. One of POP’s aims is to provide further education bursaries for foster children. This year we have been highly successful in supporting 7 students as they start their journey towards their degree. 

We have supported students at Kent, Surrey, Manchester, Oxford Brookes, West London, and the Open University, providing starter packages which include, accommodation deposits, fresher’s week support and weekly food payments. Our aim is to help them live independently, engage in learning from the start and, perhaps most importantly, enjoy their university journey without financial worries. 

As we write this, some of the students are already in their 2[nd] year of support from POP and are very enthusiastic about the help POP has given them and the difference it has made to their university experience. Please see some of the fabulous comments below: 

_**'I could concentrate on my studies and not have to worry, the support from POP was invaluable.**_ 

_**POP have been so supportive; I know they are there if I get into difficulties.**_ 

_**Amazing charity, which made things so much easier for me.**_

## **Sporting Activities** 


Once again, this year we have extended our swimming programme with 7 foster children benefiting from swimming lessons. 

We hope to build on this, particularly given the benefits from a developmental point of view; water safety, building strength and maintaining 

fitness, building lifelong skills, and promoting social development and confidence. 

In addition, research has shown that children who learn to swim by the age of five revealed that children who began swimming early experienced more rapid physical and cognitive skill development than might otherwise would be expected. 


Last year we sponsored a young and incredibly talented basketball player, (who also happens to be a CLA). This year we were able to support him once again, to take part in a college tournament tour of America. This provided coaching and competitions plus a depth of experience. 

He toured the USA, sponsored by Power of Parenting, playing in many tournaments, all of which are attended by the American colleges on the lookout for new recruits. 

A life experience if ever there was one – and one that he thoroughly enjoyed.  Currently he is finishing his schooling in the UK and we look forward to hearing his basketball progress as this comes to an end.

## **Christmas Hampers for Families in Need** 


2022 continued to bring hardship to many, with record numbers of food parcels distributed. Christmas can be such a challenging time for many, leaving nothing spare to provide a special time for children. 

Once again, Power of Parenting stepped in to help those struggling and delivered a record number of 12 amazing hampers to some lucky families, to make Christmas a little easier. A local school identified families in crisis for us and we provided hampers at Christmastime to allow those families to enjoy a 

more normal Christmas. Not only a hamper to provide Christmas lunch but also some Tesco vouchers to allow the families to buy presents. Next year we hope to double that number again also adding a second local school to our round! Please see some of the fabulous comments below: 

**Mum of three;** _**'The hamper was amazing; it had the biggest turkey in it I have ever seen!'**_ 

**Mum & 9yr old son:** _**'Oh my goodness, it was so amazing, there was everything in there, I was able to cook my first ever roast dinner, the turkey was so big we had some the next day too. We enjoyed it so much I've done another roast since too’.**_ 

**Parents of 4:** _**'Really lovely, a great help, thank you very much’.**_ 




5 

## **FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES** 

Our two main fundraising events this year were our ever-popular golf day and our and our Christmas Ball. 

## **Charity Golf Funding Raising Day – July 2022** 


This year we ran our 6th annual golf day A fun and competitive day with 39 players enjoying the challenging course at Mill Ride (SL5 8LT). 

This annual event does a significant amount to raise our profile amongst our generous donors. It gives them the opportunity to hear first-hand what POP has managed to achieve with their donations. 

## **POP Christmas Ball – December 2022** 


As in previous years the 2022 Christmas Ball was run as a thank you to our wonderful foster carers but also to raise the profile of the charity and finally to raise funds. 

This festive event was held Great Fosters in Egham, a beautiful setting. There were 130 guests, 10 of which 

were Foster Carers, who were very prominently thanked not only throughout the evening, but also with gifts of flowers and wine. 



6 

## **Grants / Significant Donations** 

## **Fundraising Partnerships / Grants** 

Following on from last year the Greenslade Family Foundation very generously agreed to donate £50,000 to POP at the rate of £10,000 a year. They, continue to be both blown away by how much POP achieves with so few resources and for this reason, this time around their donation is completely unrestricted. This financial year we received the first £10,000 donation of the committed £50,000. 

They like to hear individual stories of how we have affected lives for the better and because we have links with the local councils, it makes what we do sustainable. 

## **Russel Kin Trust** 

Once again, the Russel Kin Trust have very kindly supported us with a donation of £6,000, these funds are also unrestricted and indeed they are happy for the funds to be spent on the administration of the charity. 

## **Jess Adams and Andy Vietz** 


Finally, Jess Adam and Andy Vietz have raised over £2,000 competing in the hugely challenging iron man in Andorra. This is the Ironman with the highest elevation in Europe and to complete it, Jess had to Swim 1.2 miles, Bike 56 miles and run 13.1 miles. 

The bike ride takes the participants high into the mountains of Andorra and the temperatures reached 32 C. 

An utterly amazing achievement. 

Overall, another successful year, where we can clearly see the difference POP makes to foster children and care leavers of all ages. 



7 

## **The POP Hub of Excellence** 

This financial year, POP’s CEO Paul Adams has spent a significant amount of time researching the feasibility of the POP Hub of Excellence.  The trustees made the decision to financially reward him for the 2 days a week he devoted to this project. 

This project will continue into the next financial year when Paul will report to the board of trustees. 

## **The Bracknell Town Mayor choses POP as his charity of choice for the coming year.** 

We are looking forward to seeing the impact the mayor choosing us as his charity of choice will have going forward, he has a number of fund-raising events planned for the coming year and is running the virtual London Marathon around Bracknell to raise money for POP.
