During the year, the charity remained financially stable despite continued economic pressures, including the cost-ofliving crisis and increased demand for youth support services. Prudent financial management, strong volunteer involvement, and in-kind support from partner organisations enabled us to maintain and expand services while managing operational costs effectively. We secured a range of restricted grants for programme delivery, alongside unrestricted support from donors and community funders. These resources strengthened our reserves and improved our ability to plan for sustainable growth. Founded in **2016** , the charity exists to address the growing **social and economic inequalities** affecting young people aged **11–16** . Through a broad range of **educational** , **creative** , **health** , and **wellbeing programmes** , we provide meaningful opportunities for young people to develop confidence, practical skills, and resilience. Our work supports young people who are often **excluded from mainstream** extracurricular opportunities due to poverty, social isolation, overcrowded living conditions, and emotional challenges. By creating safe, trusted spaces, we enable participants to thrive personally, socially, and academically. **The trustees remain committed to prudent governance and ensuring funds are directed efficiently towards charitable activities.** YOUTH ON THE MOVE (LONDON) **ANNUAL REPORT AND ACCOUNTS 2025** 2 CHARITY NUMBER: 1171778 COMPANY NUMBER: 10030675 ## **OUR OBJECTIVES** To **improve opportunities** for disadvantaged young people aged 11–16 To promote **emotional wellbeing** , confidence, and social inclusion To increase access to **educational attainment** and **accredited learning** To encourage **active lifestyles** and **healthy habits** To develop sustainable **programmes** responsive to **community need** To promote **creativity** , self- **expression** , and community **engagement** To provide **practical relief** to families experiencing hardship ## **THE NEED FOR OUR SERVICES** Many young people in **Hackney** and **Haringey** continue to face significant disadvantage. Poverty, overcrowded housing, financial hardship, and reduced access to enrichment opportunities negatively affect mental wellbeing, educational attainment, and aspirations. Recent feedback from service users highlights **rising anxiety** , **social isolation** , and **low confidence among young people** , particularly post-pandemic. Demand for trusted, communitybased support remains high, with several programmes operating waiting lists. Our trustees, many of whom work directly within education, witness these challenges daily and ensure services respond to real and emerging community needs.
