JUVENIS ANNUAL REPORT REFLECTION YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024
Dear Friends, Supporters, and Partners,
As we reflect on 2023, I am incredibly proud to share the remarkable impact Juvenis has had over the past year. It has been a time of challenge and growth, not just for the young people we serve, but for our organisation as we continue to respond to the evolving needs of our communities across London.
In 2023, Juvenis supported over 400 young people through our tailored programmes, ranging from therapeutic support, recovery and gang prevention to education, employment, and leadership development. Each initiative was rooted in our core belief: that every young person deserves the chance to thrive, regardless of the barriers they face.
Through our SAFE Steps programme, we’ve witnessed incredible transformations. Young people previously disengaged from education have re-entered learning with renewed purpose. Others have exited cycles of violence, accessed employment opportunities, whilst leading change within their own communities.
We are especially proud of the expansion of the Lambeth Vanguard programme, which has provided safe spaces for young people affected by violence and exploitation. Through this work, we’ve deepened our commitment to early intervention, cultural healing practices, and community-led solutions.
Behind every statistic is a story of resilience, a young person who refused to be defined by their circumstances. These stories are what fuel our mission.
I want to extend heartfelt thanks to our dedicated team, partners, funders, and community allies. Your unwavering support has allowed us to remain bold in our vision and responsive in our actions.
Together, we are creating pathways out of harm and towards hope.
As we step into 2024/5, we remain committed to amplifying youth voices, challenging systemic injustice, and building a more equitable future for all.
With gratitude and solidarity,
Winston Goode
Chief Executive Officer Juvenis

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Supporting Young People in Lambeth: Diversion, Prevention and Pathways to Change
At Juvenis, we work at the sharp edge of youth support in Lambeth, providing targeted interventions for young people at risk of serious harm, exclusion, or criminal exploitation. In 2023, we deepened our commitment to offering healing-centred, culturally relevant support that meets young people where they are, and walks alongside them as they reclaim their futures.
Lambeth remains a borough with high levels of inequality, where many young people experience systemic disadvantage, community violence, and housing instability. Our programmes are designed to offer safe alternatives, build resilience, and disrupt cycles of harm.
Diversionary Support
Our diversionary programmes engage young people at critical moments, such as when they’re facing arrest, exclusion, or breakdowns in education and care. Through mentoring, positive activities, and trusted relationships, we help steer young people away from criminality and towards opportunity. Every interaction is healing-centred, culturally grounded, and focused on empowering the young person to rewrite their own story.
Young at Risk Housing Pathway (YPAR)
For many young people in Lambeth, housing instability or unsafe home environments are part of the risk landscape. At YPAR we offer wraparound care for young people in supported accommodation, particularly those at risk of violence, exploitation or disengagement. We provide advocacy, practical support, emotional guidance, and long-term planning to help them move towards independence and safety.
Lambeth Vanguard
As part of the borough-wide Lambeth Vanguard initiative, we are embedded in a multi-agency partnership with SEL Vanguard that aims to prevent violence and exploitation. Juvenis plays a central role in delivering early intervention and supporting those on the edge of crisis through outreach, intensive 1:1 support, and collaboration with social care, education, and the police. Our approach focuses on relationshipbuilding, plus keeping young people in their communities safe, engaged, and empowered.
SAFE Steps (Safe, Advocacy, Fulfil, Empowerment)
Delivering this intervention under Lambeth’s SAFE Taskforce, It focuses on providing targeted support to young people aged 10 to 14 in mainstream schools who may be at risk of disengagement from education and/or becoming involved in violence.
We provide a mentoring programme focused on children at risk of disrupted education, using a combination of 1:1 weekly mentoring sessions and group sessions. We also support children transitioning from Year 6 to Year 7, involving direct mentoring through a trusted adult, group activities and independent support for families and secondary school staff.

JUVENIS ANNUAL REPORT TRUSTEES’ REVIEW YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024
Our work is not about quick fixes—it’s about sustained relationships, trust, and providing consistent support in systems that often fail our young people. Through prevention, diversion and advocacy, we’re helping to build safer futures—not just for individuals, but for entire communities.
Case Study
My Journey: From Evolve to Bishop Thomas Grant
Starting Over
I’m NS, 14 years old, and from South London. Not too long ago, I was excluded from my previous school after getting into a fight. It wasn’t a great time in my life, I felt like everything was falling apart. I ended up at Evolve Academy, a Pupil Referral Unit (PRU) in Kennington. At first, I didn’t know what to expect. I just knew I had to figure things out.
I wasn’t someone who always got into trouble or struggled with learning, I just made a mistake. But being excluded made me question myself a lot. I started doubting whether I belonged in school at all.
Life at Evolve
Evolve was very different. Smaller classes, more structure, and staff who really tried to understand you. It gave me space to breathe and focus. But even with that, the thought of going back into a mainstream school felt scary. Could I really do it? Would people judge me for where I’d been?
I had loads of worries:
-
Would I make any friends?
-
Would teachers think I was “one of those kids”?
-
Could I even keep up in a bigger school again?
My family were doing their best, but we didn’t have access to extra support. That’s where Lambeth’s Safe Taskforce Programme came in, and that’s when things started to change for the better.
Meeting My Mentor
Through the programme, I was introduced to Kairo from Juvenis. Straight away, she made me feel seen, not just as a student, but as a person. We had proper chats, played football, even did art therapy sessions to help me express stuff I wasn’t ready to talk about yet.
She never judged me and helped me figure out who I was and reminded me of my strengths. We set goals, not just for school, but for life. Kairo understood me. We had similar backgrounds, we both love Arsenal and good food, and I could just be real around her.

JUVENIS ANNUAL REPORT TRUSTEES’ REVIEW YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024
The Big Transition
When it was time to try mainstream school again, I was nervous but ready. I started a 6-week trial placement at Bishop Thomas Grant. Kairo worked closely with the staff there, especially Mr Todd (DSL) and Miss Athenio (Head of Year) to make sure things were set up properly for me.
There were regular check-ins with school staff and my family. I wasn’t thrown in the deep end. I had support in and outside the classroom.
At first, it was tough. The classrooms were bigger. The pace was faster. And I didn’t know anyone. I worried people would see me differently because I’d been at a PRU. But I stuck with it. Slowly, I built up confidence. I started speaking to people. Some teachers even took the time to get to know me. It helped a lot.
Finding My Place
By the end of the 6 weeks, things had really changed. I wasn’t just coping; I was doing well. I was focused in class, taking part in lessons, and even helping out around the school.
I made new mates who lifted me up. I built proper relationships with staff. I started volunteering, not because I had to, but because I wanted to give something back and show that I belonged.
Thanks to the support around me, I earned a permanent place at Bishop Thomas Grant. That felt huge. It wasn’t just about the school. It was proof that I could turn things around.
What I’ve Learned
Looking back, I realise how far I’ve come. I’ve learnt to trust people again. I’ve learnt how to deal with difficult emotions in a healthy way. And I’ve learnt that one mistake doesn’t define you.
My sessions with Kairo were a big part of that. They were a safe space. If I was having a bad day, I knew I could talk it out. We didn’t ignore the hard stuff; we worked through it together. That made all the difference.
Message to Other Young People
If you’re going through it, whether you’ve been excluded or feel like school isn’t for you; I want you to know it can get better. But you need the right people around you. People who believe in you. People who’ll listen and support you without judgement.
The Safe Taskforce Programme gave me that. So did Kairo. So did my family. And now, I’m proud of what I’ve achieved. I’m more confident. I know what I’m capable of. And I’m ready for what’s next.

Final Thoughts
My journey shows that with the right support, young people like me especially Black boys from inner London, can bounce back. We just need to be given a fair chance, not written off.
I’m grateful for everyone who’s helped me. And I hope my story helps someone else who’s struggling see that change is possible, even when things feel impossible.
Highlight of the Year: "Life of a Top Boy" Research and International Recognition
One of the proudest moments of 2023 for Juvenis was our collaboration with Dr Ron Dodzro on the groundbreaking research project, Life of a Top Boy. This participatory research explored the real-life experiences of young Black boys and men involved in or affected by gang affiliation, criminal exploitation, and systemic inequality in Lambeth. Centring the voices of marginalised youth, the project offered an authentic, nuanced account of how identity, masculinity, trauma, and survival intersect in the lives of young men often portrayed solely through the lens of criminality.
Life of a Top Boy was not just research; it was a platform for young people to reclaim their narratives and interrogate the systems that shape their realities. Through interviews, creative expression, the study challenged stereotypes and revealed the structural drivers that push many young people into harm’s way, including school exclusion, racial profiling, housing precarity, and a lack of culturally relevant mental health support.
What made this project particularly significant was not only the powerful insights it produced but the way in which it was received internationally. In October 2023, Juvenis and Dr Dodzro were invited to present the findings at the prestigious Eurogang Network Meeting , held in Denver, Colorado , a global summit bringing together academics, practitioners, and policymakers committed to tackling violence and gang involvement.
This opportunity placed Juvenis on an international stage, showcasing the strength of grassroots, community-based research led in partnership with young people. Our presentation sparked meaningful dialogue with global peers about alternative approaches to criminal justice, the importance of healing-centred care, and the need for youth-led solutions in preventing violence.
The trip to Denver was not only a professional milestone, it was a powerful affirmation of our mission. It showed that the voices of young people in South London matter, and that their stories carry global relevance in conversations about justice, prevention, and hope.
As we look ahead, Life of a Top Boy continues to inform our programming, training, and advocacy. It stands as a reminder that when young people are given the tools, trust, and space to lead, they become the most powerful agents of change.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES
Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
a) select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
b) make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
c) state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
d) Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
APPROVAL

JUVENIS ANNUAL REPORT EXAMINERS REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024
Independent Examiners Report
I report on the accounts of the charity for the period ended 31[st] July 2024 which are set out on pages 15 to 20.
Responsibility of Examiner
The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act
-
follow all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act; and
-
state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the company and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently, I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the trustees have not met the requirements to ensure that:
-
a. proper accounting records are kept; and
-
b. accounts are prepared which agree with the accounting records. Or
-
the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
