by providing advice and assistance and organising
programmes of physical, educational and other
activities as a means of:

Para 1.17
and 1.19
The Connections Bus Project is a registered charity
based in Histon near Cambridge, which runs open
access youth clubs in buildings and from its mobile
youth facilities.
The charity aims to enable young people to fulfil their
potential through the provision of free recreational,
educational and personal development opportunities.
We work in communities which do not have their own
youth clubs by providing a place where young people
can meet and relax in an informal setting and
experience a range of positive and challenging
activities.
Activities include, computers, games consoles,
outdoor sports, crafts, puzzles, games, music videos
and quizzes. Social opportunities include a safe place
to meet and specially designed areas to sit and chat
with friends and youth workers. Youth workers support
young people with information and advice on subjects
such as drugs, sexual health, education and
employment.
The charity also runs courses in babysitting, first aid,
and intergenerational opportunities.
The facilities are open to any young person aged
between 11 and 18 years.
Statement confirming
whether the trustees have
had regard to the guidance

Achievements and Performance

SORP
reference
Summary of the main
achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.
Para 1.20 The main concentration of our efforts during this
year have been to maintain as many services as
possible whilst our new youth buses were being
prepared. The previous buses both became
unusable in the summer of 2024.
Most of the funding for these replacements came
from the National Lottery Reaching Communities
Fund with smaller amounts from Joanies and
Foyles.
Although the conversion process happened
during this financial period the buses were not
available until the following financial year
(2025/26).
During the 12 months there were 454 youth work
sessions including:
-
Outdoor youth clubs
-
Building based youth clubs
-
Youth Bus sessions
-
Babysitting courses
Resulting in 6745 interactions with young people.
