Trustees’ Annual Report for Charity Commission: 1171720 

## **ANNUAL REPORT FOR CHARITY COMMISSION (1 April 2021 to 31 March 2022)** 

## **Introduction and purpose** 

Young onset dementia affects adults before the age of 65. Nationally there are estimated to be at least 70,800 younger people with dementia which means 92 in every 100,000 of the population are living with young onset dementia.  According to the Journal of Dementia Care Report (Carter and Jackson _June 2022 Vol 30 No 3)_ , 7.5% of all people with dementia developed it under the age of 65.  In Berkshire, there are an estimated 679 people living with young onset dementia and 900 in Surrey. 

The traditional support services provided for those with dementia are designed to meet the needs and expected therapeutic outcomes of older adults and subsequently, access to activities appropriate for younger adults with dementia continues to be limited locally, regionally and nationally. The YPWD model encourages carer respite throughout the working week, giving all carers the chance to take a break.  In a national study focusing on post-diagnostic support for those living with young onset dementia and their carers The Angela Project reported that 69% of carers reported there was no service that provided care for their relative to allow them to take a break[1] . 

The charity’s model is integrated with local healthcare provision meaning that there is, to the patient and carer, a seamless service from diagnosis to referral into the charity. Services include ageappropriate and meaningful workshops, 1:1 support, micro-groups, education courses, Admiral Nurses for carers, support groups and through the local Memory Clinic, access to a Dementia Care Advisor.  This model reflects several key needs that The Angela Project highlighted for people with young onset dementia including access to young onset specific advice, information and support to remain independent, supported age-appropriate activity, support to maintain physical and mental health as well as possible[2] . 

Our integrated model has developed through an ongoing open dialogue with health and social care professionals to champion the needs of those with young onset dementia and their carers. As a result of the charity’s services and the integration with health and social care, significant savings have been made on healthcare budgets because of reduced health crises in patients and carers and delayed entry into care. Key recommendations from The Angela Project relating to service design and development cited both the need to build capacity and ownership of young onset dementia services within, and between, organisations and to provide specialist or shared care, rather than care from a GP alone[3] .

Trustees’ Annual Report for Charity Commission: 1171720 

## **Finances, Governance, Structure and Management** 

## **Financial Year** 

The twelve months to 31 March 2022 have been challenging as a result of the covid-19 pandemic. Specifically, this left the charity without the option to raise funds through business support or event challenges, leaving a projected deficit in our budget. We initiated a trust and foundation application strategy that led to the closure of some of this deficit, but income versus expenditure led to a shortfall of £54,518. 

The expenditure of the charity is mainly comprised of staff costs and premises. 

## **Our Finances: income and expenditure** 

The total income for the charity was: £337,817 with the total expenditure coming to £392,335. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The reserves policy of the charity is to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the free reserves of the charity, at a sufficient level which enables the charity to operate in the short term (6 Months). The remainder of the Charity's reserves are distributed in accordance with its objectives. The total reserves at the year-end date were £410,872 of which an amount of £108,491 was held in restricted funds. The trustees consider the state of the charity to be satisfactory, and that it is achieving its objectives. 

## **Governing Document** 

The charity is controlled by its governing document. 

## **Recruitment and appointment of Trustees** 

The charity must appoint a minimum of six Trustees.  Apart from the first charity Trustees, every Trustee must be appointed for a term of three years by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of the charity Trustees. 

Trustees must have regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the CIO. Trustees are co-opted to the board by a quorum of at least four Trustees. 

The Trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no benefit from the Charity. 

## **Risk Management** 

The Trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. The Trustees recognise the charity’s reliance on the NHS for funding and actively look to broaden the sources of financial support.  These additional sources of income included applications to charitable trusts and foundations and fundraising activities.

Trustees’ Annual Report for Charity Commission: 1171720 

## **Covid-19** 

The charity has reviewed and adjusted its working practices in line with Government guidelines to provide on-going services.  The charity did not use the Government’s furlough scheme and retained all staff. 

## **Management** 

The charity is run on a day-to-day basis by the Charity Director, who reports directly to the Chair of Trustees. Charity services are overseen by the Services Delivery Manager, who reports to the Charity Director and services are delivered by a team of Young Dementia Project Workers across Berkshire. 

During the period a pilot project has been running in Surrey Heath, working in partnership with Surrey and Borders Partnership NHS Foundation Trust.  This service provides two workshops a week, micro-groups, 1:1 support where appropriate and education courses.  The service is run under the management of Trustees, with the team comprising one Lead and Young Dementia Project Worker. 

## **Description of Services Provided** 

During the pandemic we moved our entire operation online and developed a range of services and support.  We were pleased to move back to our previous face—to-face model during this period which was well received by our clients. 

Our service offers respite to carers through the provision of a number of different workshops for younger people with dementia throughout the working week and/or 1:1 support/micro-groups.  A prospectus of the different workshops is produced regularly and people with dementia can access up to 5 workshops through the week in Berkshire, and 2 in Surrey Heath (who are offering a pilot parttime model), thus offering clear choice for a group who previously had very limited choice and a flexible approach to respite for carers. 

## **Workshops** 

Workshops generally run in six-week blocks and are run throughout the working week at various community locations.  They are selected on the basis of current evidence of therapeutic benefit, following requests specifically by people with dementia and from carers’ feedback. This approach instils confidence in the carer that their loved one will be engaged in meaningful activity, thus reducing anxiety when leaving them. This provides beneficial respite but also provides improved outcomes for people with dementia. 

## **Micro-groups** 

We appreciate that it can be overwhelming for those with young onset dementia to join a large group of people at the outset of referral to our services, so we offer the opportunity to meet a couple of people in an activity based micro-group.  This enables them to develop friendships and gain confidence prior to joining the workshops.  This is also supported by our 1:1 support service. 

5 







Trustees’ Annual Report for Charity Commission: 1171720 

## **1:1 Support** 

It is recognised that not all people wish to participate in group activities or are able to access a group.  We therefore also provide 1:1 support to those with young onset dementia.  During these sessions people are encouraged to choose an activity that is of personal interest which can be carried out with the support of the respite worker. Examples would be walks, going out for coffee or lunch, swimming, board games and attending local community projects. The 1:1 support has facilitated some individuals to volunteer for other charities, thus promoting the individual’s sense of purpose but also enabling reciprocal support and learning. 

## **Education Course** 

Working in partnership with health and social care professions from Memory Clinics across Berkshire, we assist in the delivery of a twice-yearly education course for those diagnosed with young onset dementia and their relatives. 

The education course typically covers the following topics: 

- What is dementia? 

- Activities 

- Carers'/Patients' Perspective 

- Legal Aspects 

- Memory and Communication 

- New Behaviours 

- Looking After Your Health 

- Research 

## **Carer Support** 

**Admiral Nurses -** The Admiral Nurses provide a robust nursing assessment and work to address the needs of the carer; this can be through providing emotional and/or practical support. Intervention can be for 3 visits or many years; this is dependent on the individual. The Admiral Nurse will work with other members of the YPWD team, for example day respite or dementia support, as well as the local mental health and social care teams. 

In addition, we provide support groups for carers of those diagnosed with young onset dementia. These include: 

**Connecting Carers Group** - We have carers who would like to spend time getting to know other carers and we offer a six-weekly Connecting Carers Group throughout the year. This in an informal group with carers sharing their experiences, helping and supporting one another. We arrange external speakers to attend who provide appropriate services and support. 

**The Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) and Posterior Cortical Atrophy (PCA) Carer Group** - We have a number of carers looking after someone with a rarer dementia, such as FTD or PCA. We offer a dedicated regional support group for carers with a loved one with either of these rarer dementias and we collaborate closely with University College London’s Dementia Research Centre. 

6 







Trustees’ Annual Report for Charity Commission: 1171720 

**The Stronger Together Group** - When carers reach the stage where their loved one with Young Onset Dementia has either had to enter long term care or has passed away the Stronger Together Group is there to provide support, through social gatherings and regular activities during the year. This group has been kindly funded by the Berkshire Carers Service since it began. 

**The YPWD Carer Group on Facebook** - This is a private online group hosted on Facebook and exclusively for carers of a loved one with young onset dementia. It offers the chance for carers to post questions, support one another and be part of a like-minded group of people going through a shared experience. 

## **Impact on those with dementia and their carers as a result of using our services** 

Throughout the year we regularly ask carers who support their loved one with young onset dementia to complete a short survey to inform the charity about the quality if its services and support. The findings below represent feedback in September 2021 when we were providing a combination of face-to-face and on-line support as we came out of the pandemic. 

- 77% of carers rated the quality of our services as ‘Excellent’ 

- 92% of carers said that our services had a medium or high impact in reducing the feeling of isolation for their loved one 

- 77% of carers said that our services had a medium or high impact in reducing the feeling of isolation for them 

- 60% of carers felt that as a result of our services their loved one’s mood improved leading to less anxiety or sadness 

- 56% of carers felt that as a result of our services their mood improved leading to less anxiety or sadness

## **Objectives set for the year** 

**Objectives for the year ahead** 

- To raise awareness, provide education and training 

- To increase diagnosis and referral rates of young onset dementia 

- To meet changing needs e.g., work with the BAME communities in the east 

- To provide greater income diversity 

- To progress the tailored pathway 

## **Achievements during the period reported against our objectives** 

## **Raise awareness, provide education and training** 

During the year we have delivered two education courses to carers and those diagnosed with dementia.  We have also worked on and enhanced our social media presence with a dedicated team providing regular updates.  Our website was reviewed and updated.  We have also raised the profile of our model within a wider area than Berkshire, with a pilot project running in Surrey Health in conjunction with Surrey and Borders Partnership NHS Foundation Trust.  This pilot replicates services available in Berkshire, albeit on a smaller scale.  If successful, we would be looking for on-going funding to be secured to enable it to grow and develop. 

**Increase diagnosis and referral rates** 

We chair the YPWD Forum which brings together representatives from the six Berkshire localities, including memory services, dementia care advisors and Admiral Nurses. It offers a platform to be able to share good practice and to make sure that patients living with young onset dementia and their families are receiving an equitable service regardless of where they live in Berkshire.  During the period a young onset dementia pathway has been proposed and is near finalisation. 

We continue to engage with colleagues across the six memory clinics in Berkshire, and now Surrey Heath.  This allows the charity to discuss patients that use our services while also highlighting what we are currently offering and encouraging referrals/engagement with our services. 

## **Meet changing needs: BAME communities, rarer dementia support, children** 

Two of our Trustees have worked on a strategy document during the period to enable us to develop BAME services within the county.  The initial focus is aimed to be on Slough, then expanding thereafter.  As part of this strategy we anticipate recruiting to the post of Community Outreach Manager who will lead on this element of our strategy. 

As outlined in the services we offer, we continued to deliver two rare dementia support groups throughout the year.  One group offers support to carers whose loved one is diagnosed with Posterior Cortical Atrophy (PCA), the other group for carers whose loved one is diagnosed with Frontotemporal dementia (FTD). 

8 







Trustees’ Annual Report for Charity Commission: 1171720 

In conjunction with MERL and Reading University, we commenced delivery of a pilot project to support and promote strength, resilience and connectivity for families and young people impacted by young onset dementia (Children’s Support Project). 

## **Income generation** 

The charity have been active in applications to charitable trusts and foundations to solicit funds and narrow our income deficit.  To assist us in doing these, we have taken on a consultant bid writer. 

**Progress the ‘tailored pathway’ for the people we support with a diagnosis of Young Onset Dementia** 

Where possible, the charity has continued to support people with a young onset diagnosis that are heavily progressed in their dementia.  Where we would normally signpost people to more appropriate services, it has been found that there is a lack of appropriate provision (e.g. day services and care facilities).  We continue to work with colleagues and allied services, as well as Clinical Commissioning Groups, to fill this gap in provision. 

## **Some quotes about our services over the past year** 

_My husband accesses ypwd it's been a real turn around for him his confidence has grown._ 

## _**Carer**_ 

_The excellent variety of workshops offered is enthusiastically looked forward to and much appreciated. The YPWD team are most caring and always very approachable engendering a great environment for participation._ 

**Carer** 

_The services received from YPWD team has been excellent. We cannot fault them. They are there to support, chat and ensure everyone is safe. Would not cope without them. Thankyou._ 

**Carer** 

_The weekly workshops, now being face to face and in real life, have benefitted and have been fun. There is no substitute for human interaction and getting to know the teams._ 

**Carer** 

_I very much enjoyed my visit to the YPWD workshop that was held in Newbury last month. It was obvious to me that the YPWD charity is well run and extremely worthwhile. I enjoyed meeting the staff and the volunteers as well as those whom they were helping. It is obvious that those needing help were very appreciative and cheerful which is a sure sign that the charity is doing a good job. I wish all  concerned well._
