| Summary | of the main | Response to Covid-19 | |||
| achievements ofthe charity during the year |
Food Parcels 8 Essentials We used our weekly delivery slot at The Felix Project and the donations |
||||
| from Street games, Inkind Direct and Kitchen Social to obtain as much |
|||||
| food, toiletry essentials and sports equipment to form weekly care |
|||||
| package's to go out to the most affected and vulnerable families. Only |
|||||
| having a Smart car available at the start, we packed itto the brim, and |
|||||
| thus started our weekly deliveries. The following weeks we hired out | |||||
| Zipcars as the number offamilies had risen due to partnering up with |
|||||
| local schools and adding their vulnerable families to our list ofdeliveries. |
|||||
| The deliveries continued for the whole year, although the numbers of |
|||||
| families supported became less as we were able to referred them onto |
|||||
| specialist services (food banks, early help); at the peak ofthe pandemic we were supporting over 70families. A family quoted "It's the constant |
|||||
| week in week out support, you have kept up without fail. No other blessing has been greater than this. God Bless your hard work."This |
|||||
| year we delivered over 5000 family food parcels. |
|||||
| Sports, Play 8 Arts Resources | |||||
| As soon as we heard there was a possibility ofa lockdown, we had |
|||||
| prepared over 40 'Go Bags' for our participants to take home on the last. |
|||||
| day that we were able to run sessions at Roundwood Youth Club. The |
|||||
| bag included; Frisbees, rulers, rubbers, pens, Pedometers, deodorant |
|||||
| spray, cones, small balls, a few other little bits and a football. We knew | it | ||||
| would be vital to prep and make sure the children have something to take |
|||||
| home, many ofthem repeated the same thing saying "they didn't have a lot ofthe bag's contents at home. " After the first lockdown was officially |
|||||
| announced and we knew our efforts had to continue throughout this |
|||||
| period. Other items distributed to households were tennis rackets, art |
|||||
| supplies boxes, books and home fitness equipment for the whole family. |
|||||
| Over 125families received resources to support learning, play and |
|||||
| physical activity. |
|||||
| 1-2-1Support calls LDoorstep Visits | |||||
| Our Coaches intentionally stayed in contact with some ofour (most. |
|||||
| vulnerable) young people, checking in on them with weekly calls to |
|||||
| monitor their overall wellbeing and mental health with consent from both |
|||||
| parent and young person. The calls also helped us get feedback on what | |||||
| online activities, sports equipment or anything else they required. 356 |
|||||
| doorstep visits were made in the first lockdown. |
|||||
| Online Zoom Sessions | |||||
| Being thrown out ofroutine and being less active has a massive effect on |
|||||
| our mental health, with this in mind we strived to continue the |
|||||
| engagement with our young people to provide a sense of normality in this |
|||||
| strange time. Among our coaches and external partners, we were able to |
|||||
| bring a weekly variety ofstructured zoom sessions assessable to young |
|||||
| people, and the whole family. These weekly sessions consisted offitness | |||||
| sessions, quiz's, yoga, circuit training, dance, drama, 1-2-1 tutoring and |
|||||
| schoolwork support, cook-alongs, music sessions and online 'hang-outs'. |
|||||
| Film Project with 8+0Iledia | |||||
| Before lockdown, SatH had been planning a film project (funded by the Borough ofCulture) with 880for our young people to direct and create |
|||||
| their own film, but due to lockdown, we transitioned it to a zoom session |
|||||
| to allow for the project to go ahead. The young people filmed their | |||||
| ex erience and what SatH are doin durin the lockdown. The roect |

a | ||||

| The level offree reserves (excluding restricted funds) is reviewed |
|||||
| Briefstatement ofthe charity's policy on reserves |
annually by the trustees. In the current economic climate, the trustees consider that the most appropriate level offree reserves is between 3-6 |
||||
| months budgeted future operating expenditure; to be able to withstand |
a | ||||
| prolonged drop in funding over the coming year but also to help fund |
|||||
| operations where funding is paid in arrears, rather than up front. i.e.we |
|||||
| often have to wait several months to receive funding, and so our reserves |
|||||
| are im ortant to hei mana e our uneven cash flows. |
