## Dovecote Voluntary Parent Committee Annual Report 2022 – 2023 Registered Charity No: 1172048 ## **Why Dovecote Children & Families Project is Important** There are very few initiatives engaging with families in Greater Leys. The Dovecote centre is based in the centre of the estate is the only provider of out of school play facilities for young children and children with disabilities aged 4 to 14 years old, along with being the only provider of these schemes for children aged 4 to 8 across the Leys estate with an estimated population of 1153 within this age range. As a community owned and run project, we have been fortunate to have the ability to flex in order to meet the needs of the Leys community. We provide holistic services that meet the multiple-needs of local residents, build trusting relationships, provide low-cost services and attract people that are highly committed to making their community a better place to live. - Good quality play experiences, supporting children and young people to achieve good physical and mental health. - Inclusive, safe play opportunities where children and young people develop selfconfidence and life skills preparing them for a creative and positive adulthood. - Families, young children and children with disabilities are supported to overcome social exclusions and isolation - Training and assistance for volunteers to support current provision, and initiate and develop new projects - User involvement in design, delivery and management of services to meet locally identified need rather than externally perceived needs. - Skilling up and local capacity building, sign posting local families to access training, support and resources to learn new skills, gain self-esteem and confidence and increase wellbeing. ## **Achievements to Date** The guiding principle underlying all our work is consultation with, and involvement of children, young people and families. A key aim is to maximise the use of the Dovecote a valuable community resource. For Dovecote to be vibrant, fun, local community resource owned by the community in which it seeks to serve – whose lives it enhances. Focus of our project is providing children including children with disabilities, young people and families with access to affordable good quality, safe, secure play and social opportunities and experiences not normally accessible to them. When the first phase of the new estate was established in 1996, consultation took place with local residents. The need for stay and play sessions and out of school play facilities was identified along with family social and parenting support groups. The outcome of the consultation was the creation of the Dovecote Voluntary Parent Management Committee made up of local parents who come together to create the Dovecote Children & Families project, led and managed by the Dovecote Voluntary Parent Committee a constituted group. Their commitment and dedication have enabled the project to thrive, creating many new and exciting opportunities for children and families to enjoy for the past 27 years. Our project has worked with and supported in excess of 3000 families. We have achieved the following project developments over the past 27 years we have been operating, thanks to the dedication of the committee, staff and volunteers: - An afterschool club three sessions per week, 16 children per session, including children with disabilities aged 4 to 12 years old - Easter and summer playschemes for up to 40 children including children with disabilities per session - Half term playschemes (subject to funding) for up to 16 children - Twice weekly Stay & Play sessions for young mums and dads with young children - Purpose built sensory room for children with disabilities and their families - Strong partnership work with a wide range of voluntary and statutory organisations supporting vulnerable children and families - Strong partnership work with Aiming High Short Breaks for Disabled Children to support young children with disabilities experiencing exclusion to accessing local services to participate in our afterschool club and schemes. - Setting up Leys News a free community newsletter distributed to every household in Blackbird Leys. Today the Leys news is an independent community newspaper reach 5000 household every month - Development of Dovecote Afloat – narrow boat project bringing the magic of canals and nature to young people from the Leys (Sadly due to funding this project came to an end in August 2016) _Sadly due to funding this project is no longer running_ - Purpose built sensory garden - Provide support, training and volunteering opportunities - Extension of centre garden providing a larger outside play area - Awarded Outstanding Grade by Ofsted 2009 - Finalist Groundwork Community Award – Best Community Project on a Social Housing Estate 2018 - Finalist Children & Young People’s Award 2016 - Secured two large key funding awards from the Lottery Volunteers play a vital part role in the running of our project. Without their help and commitment there would not be a Dovecote Children & Families project. All activities are offered to families at below cost to ensure accessibility and affordability to all young children and families living in the Leys. It is encouraging to see young children develop; many have gone on to become volunteers helping in our project. Several have been supported to access training to become qualified play workers working in our schemes before pursuing a career in child care. Our current board of trustees consists of two young men, former users of the Dovecote from the age of 4 years old along with helping deliver services on a volunteer basis for several years. ## **Project Management** We the Dovecote Voluntary Parent Trustees receive regular reports and updates from the Children & Families Services Manager Carol Richards. We hold up to six business meeting per year along with training and informal meetings taking place when required. Trustees are elected at our Annual General Meeting. Annual accounts are prepared by a qualified accountant and signed off at our AGM. Day to day activities of the project is managed and developed in consultation with the committee by the Children & Families Services Manager Children and young people play a lead role in the planning and development of Dovecote Children & Families project. We also employ two part-time afterschool club play workers and have a good bank of regular seasonal play staff. Stay and play sessions are delivered by our wonderful volunteer Alison Logan, supported by Carol. We also have a very good network of parents/carers and supporters who are always willing to help when they can. ## **Vision, Mission and Values** _**OUR VISION** – A world where all children and young people are equal_ _**OUR MISSION** – provide services, support and opportunities that support the Improvement of the descending spiral of deprivation and inequality, setting a path for lasting growth_ _**OUR VALUES** – We pride ourselves in giving a safe and welcoming environment in order to give our users the ability to development themselves and break the cycle of undesirable peer pressure._ We support children and young people in their personal development and to build positive relationships. Together we enable children and young people to reach their full potential and realise their ambitions. We are ambitious for the lives of the children and young people we work with. The services we provide to families and children aspire to better lives. We have built trusting relationships within the community over many years. We have maintained this trust by being dependable and consistent in our delivery of services and support. ## **Our Contact Details** Dovecote Voluntary Parent Committee, Registered Charity number 1172048, Dovecote Centre, Nightingale Avenue, Blackbird Leys, Oxford, OX4 7BU Tel: 01865 712299 Mobile: 07974234661 E-mail: leysdvpc@hotmail.com Website; www.dovecoteproject.com facebook:leysdvpc ## **Office Hours** Current office hours vary ## **Trustees** Rachel Partlett – Chairperson; Amie Prior – Secretary; Jacob Brain, Tara Collier, Craig Logan, Hilary Miles and Dwayne John ## **Dovecote Team** Carol Richards: Children & Families Services Co-ordinator Sharon Bishop Play Assistant Alison Logan Play Assistant Delvise Saunders Play Assistant Along with a range of seasonal staff throughout the year ## **Volunteers** Alison Logan, Amanda Jones _Mr Peter J Stevenson, MA FCA, has independently examined our accounts_ ## **Chairs Report** Welcome everyone and thank you for attending this year’s AGM I am pleased to present our annual report for 2022-23 The past twelve months have been much better than the previous twelve months. Thanks to the vaccine slowly but surely the past year has saw Covid having less of an impact on daily life. Services our project provide are now pretty much back to fully pre covid familiarity; i.e., stay and play and afterschool club sessions. At each Trustee meeting CR has reported that our stay and play sessions are very popular. The Wednesday session more often than not is having to turn families away as it is full to capacity and more! The Dovecote Children & Families project puts the voices and needs of disadvantage young people, families and children at the centre of everything we do, drawing on their stories and the experiences of our partners to develop services for change. I would like to say a huge thank you to all Trustees who continue to serve, support and scrutinise the Charity’s work. Without their dedication and commitment which is very much valued and appreciated, there would not be a Dovecote Children & Families project. A major important aspect of this year was being awarded three-year funding from the Lottery Reaching Communities fund. We learnt the good news 24[th] October 2022. The support of the Lottery is very much welcomed to say the least. It will provide us with much needed resources; recruitment of a Play Leader (something we have been without for just over 18 months) along with much needed recruitment of a Community Outreach Worker to enable us to take Dovecote Children & Families Project out into the community. Having this resource will support us to connect and reconnect with children, families and local organisations in the Leys. This is something we feel has been a hugely negatively impacted by Covid 19. On behalf of everyone at Dovecote Children & Families project, I would like to big thank you to all our supporters and partners for their support over the past year. ## **Treasurers Report** 2022/23 financial accounts have been prepared by our long-standing accountant Peter J Stevenson MA FCA Throughout the reporting period the focus has continued to explore how best to find and fund the inspiring ideas that change the lives of children, young people and families. This has been impacted considerably by the global pandemic and Covid-19. It’s clear that all the UK’s children and young people and disadvantaged families have been challenged by the pandemic but for those already experiencing disadvantage the past few years have been an even more challenging year. Securing the support of Reaching Communities for the next three years will enable Dovecote Children & Families project to focus on supporting more families, reconnecting and strengthening of current partnership work whilst establishing new partnership work. Having the resource of an outreach worker will enable us to take Dovecote Children & Families project out into the community. The funding will support us to develop current services to better meet the needs of Leys children and families along with having the ability to provide a wider variety of activities and opportunities to disadvantage children and families in the Leys and surrounding areas We are fortunate as a small charity to have had enough reserves that permitted us to match fund some of the lottery funding over the next three years. We believe having this resource strengthened our Reaching communities funding bid. “It's a fact, more people are likely to donate to charity and give more money if they know their donation will be match-funded”. “A Great Match” is the first-ever in-depth research carried out into match-funding in the UK, analysing data from 138,000 charitable donations. _“The research shows that match funding is a fantastic incentivise to donors”_ ## **Secretary** Despite the challenges posed by Covid-19 pandemic Dovecote Children & Families project has continued to work hard to transform the lives of disadvantage, children, including those with disabilities, young people and families living in nationally recognised area of disadvantage. This report tells the story of how our team at Dovecote and Trustees have been creative and innovative in making sure we continued to be here for children, young people and families who need us What makes Dovecote Voluntary Children & Families project such a special organisation is that we take learning from local residents and inspired stories and voices of young people. We then work to prevent other families and young people from experiencing these challenges I think everyone will agree when I say the past two years have been some of the most demanding for Dovecote Children & Families Project, but I could not be prouder of this very special organisation. As we look ahead, we recognise the scale of the challenge before us – we have an ambitious goal, an ambitious strategy, and a gifted, talented team. We are up for the challenge and hope you will continue to stand with us as we work to truly build a society for all children, young people and families. ## **Afterschool Club** Numbers attending afterschool club over the past year have varied. We feel this has been mainly down to the cost-of-living crisis which continues to hit the most vulnerable families, children and young people in the UK. It has also been a year of unwelcome records: the highest inflation in 40 years, the sharpest fall in pay for more than two decades……………. - Children attending the club had access to a variety of activities and opportunities; - team games - communication and leadership skills, cooperation, friendship - Art and crafts –creativity, imagination, fine motor skills - Outdoor risky play, (many of the children reside in flats) - Offsite trips – develop both mentally and physically, social awareness, keep healthy - Science activities, sensory play, baking, and much more - nurture curiosity, increase confidence to try new things, learn new skills purpose-built sensory room and garden provides therapeutic play Although academic performance is a crucial part of a child’s journey through school, building on their social skills and self-confidence is just as important. After school clubs enable students to interact with new people, develop interpersonal skills and learn from each other. They also help to discourage children from engaging in anti-social behaviours by keeping them busy. There is a large body of research showing that extracurricular activities play a positive role with significantly improving soft skills for those who regularly attend - these include; independence, fitting in with peers, teamwork, communication and problem solving skills. Extracurricular activities allow students to apply lessons and skills acquired in class to a realworld context, particularly the use of soft skills. For example, students who take part in sports teams like football are given the opportunity to develop and improve their discipline, teamwork and communication, and students who take part in after school maths class will be able to implement skills such as problem solving and critical thinking - proving to work in both an academic and social environment. Researchers continue to find data to support the statement that after school clubs are highly effective and beneficial in developing soft skills, boosting academic performance and overall helping young people. Extracurricular activities bring physical and mental health benefits for children ## **Stay & Play** Our stay and play sessions continue to be extremely busy. Wednesday sessions can be a bit manic at times as this is the busiest sessions. On several occasions we have sadly had to turn people away due to reaching full capacity for inside of 15 children and 14 adults. One Wednesday session we had 21 children and adults!!! To say it was a bit manic is an understatement but fun and fulfilling seeing children having a good time. Now the weather is getting nicer we will be able to start using the outside garden more this will enable more to families attend. We continue to support new mums, dads and parents of babies born during lockdown to socialise, learn new skills, access new opportunities, be less afraid of trying new things and meeting new people, overcome the feeling of loneliness, isolation and much more. Along with support parents suffering with anxiety and depression. Our Little Doves messenger group is a very good source of support for those parents. Many grandmothers who attend the sessions are very good at encouraging and supporting younger mums and dads. Our stay & play sessions offer the following; - Group leaders ensure a smooth-running of our sessions where children are able to explore and play safely. - Children learn from having fun. Our sessions offer a wide-range of play activities and educational toys to assist children’s developmental needs. - We offer a variety of activities - Sessions offer fun outdoor play experience and exploring outside is keenly encouraged - Sessions include free-play, messy play, arts and crafts sensory play in our sensory room. Opportunities and experiences help children by; encouraging speech and language, encouraging sharing and turn-taking and exploring new and exciting activities. Working in partnership with parents is central to the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and it is widely acknowledged that developing successful relationships between parents and providers can have long-lasting and beneficial effects on children’s learning and wellbeing Research has found that 'Stay and Play' sessions where parents and their children play and learned songs, are linked to small but significant reductions in parenting stress, improvements in mothers' health, and better learning environments in the children's own homes. ## **– Aim of Stay and Play sessions Update** **Be Healthy-** Much of our play is physically active helping develop physical health. Additionally, there is a very strong ethos of promoting healthy eating, with snack time consisting of only fruit, which develops a healthy lifestyle and encourages the parents to support the children to follow a healthy lifestyle. Through playing, learning and developing in a supportive environment, where parents are helped to promote these activities, children are nurtured and remain mentally and emotionally healthy. **Stay Safe -** Through playing with their children and enjoying time with other parents, parents’ bond better with their children and develop support networks to help them cope with parenthood and learn new skills, which will reduce the occurrences of maltreatment, neglect and violence. **Enjoy & Achieve -** Through both structured and unstructured, children become more socially independent and socially able making them ready to engage fully in school when they are old enough. Through these same process’s children are able to develop personally and socially while enjoying recreation. **Make a Positive Contribution -** Stay and Plays are social environments where children are encouraged to develop positive relationships with other children and behave appropriately in play. Through play children are encouraged to be more independent which helps them develop self-confidence. ## **Partnership Work** The focus this year is to reconnect and strengthen our work with our current partners i.e., Blackbird Leys Adventure Playground, local schools, Family Solutions, CDI………….. Sadly, partnership and networking has been severely impacted by Covid 19. Since restrictions have been lifted most originations time and effort has been on reconnecting with users, restarting services needed to help address the impact of the pandemic on disadvantage children, young people and families. We are pleased to say we are now working in partnership with Together with Migrant Children; They provide support migrant and refugee children, young people and families across the UK. Their aim is to empower and support individuals, families and communities through advocacy, specialist assessment, family assessment, family, youth work and social work. The forge close working links with other organisations to ensure everyone one they work with is well supported. Central to their work is rights-based and democratic practice.” This group is now based the Peep reschool room at Dovecote. Together we will be explore ways in which we can work together to provide services needed to support Asylum seekers and refugees with young children living in Blackbird Leys. We will work together to source and submit joint funding bids to enable Dovecote Children and Families project and Together with Migrant Children to develop service needed to support vulnerable families. Parent Power (Oxford Hub); “Parent Power brings parents together to support each other, enabling families to lead their best lives and achieve their goals. Additional new partnership work also took place with Parent Power is an ambitious initiative that works directly with families who are keen to lead changes in their own lives – helping themselves, their children and their communities to thrive. Drawing on the experience of other projects in the UK and the US. Parent Power supports families. to set their goals, access opportunities in the community and shape services around them. We are working together to set up new parent lead initiatives, recruit and support volunteers and put together joint family fun events We have also had the opportunity to reconnect with existing partners; BLAP, CDI, local Schools………. Working in partnership with people and communities creates a better chance of creating services that meet people's needs, it improves their experience and outcomes. Local residents, children and young people have the knowledge, skills, experiences and connections services need to understand in order to support their physical and mental health Partnership working coordinates better action between organisations and allows us opportunities to exchange views, support innovation and provide additional momentum to get things done. ## **Future Developments** - Families project - Parents and families have identified that existing resources at the Dovecote are under-utilised. Develop new parenting support groups, baby massage, new parent sessions, workshops with parents setting agenda..... - Development of existing specialist facilities (purpose built sensory room) to reach those, young children with impairments experiencing social exclusion and facing multiple barriers to engagement with services, to support their education and wellbeing. - Work with Social Services to facilitate Dovecote becoming a contact centre for families with children in care. - Development of more play & stay sessions to include a SEND (Special Educational Needs or Disabilities) session - Raise necessary funds to employ an Outreach worker to take Dovecote services out to the community, i.e., offer support and advice on parenting, local activities and services through home visiting and groups, offering a listening ear ## **Funding** See attached 2022/2023 financial report prepared by Peter Stevens, MA FCA ## **Equal Opportunities** We are fully committed to caring for children in a multi-cultural/racial community. We give the following undertaking and declare that: We will treat the children in our care with equal concern and without prejudice to their religious persuasion, racial origin, cultural background, gender, disability or special needs. The Dovecote Voluntary Parent Committee is committed to taking positive and proactive steps to ensure that we provide a safe and caring environment, free from discrimination for everyone in our community; we provide facilities that promote and reflect cultural and social diversity and are equally accessible to all. We are proud of our record of success in including children with various specific physical intellectual or behavioural needs in our activities and we are fortunate to have a very good partnership with the Parasol Project. Parasol is based on the belief that children with disabilities are children first. With the help of enablers provided by Parasol, we are able to better meet the needs of children with disabilities in our playschemes. ## **Acknowledgements:** We would like to take this opportunity to express our thanks to all the people, groups and organisations who have contributed to the continued success of the Dovecote Children & Families projects over the past year. Without your help and support the Dovecote Voluntary Parent Committee would not have succeeded in continuing to deliver good quality, low-cost play experiences and opportunities for the children, including children with disabilities, young people and families living in one of Europe’s largest social housing estates Blackbird Leys. ## **Finally** A huge thanks to all our staff for the great job they do providing a fun, happy, friendly, welcoming, secure, challenging and stimulating environment for the children, young people and families of the Leys! ## _**ALSO BIG THANKS TO:**_ Trustees and all our wonderful volunteers who help make Dovecote Children & Families project happen **Catalyst Housing Group Reaching Communities Lottery Community Fund Oxford Food Hub** **Pye Settlement Charity Christ Church Blackbird Leys Parish Council St John’s College Merton College Robert & Margert Moss Charitable Trust National Lottery Reaching Communities Small Grants Oxfordshire Community Development Foundation Oxford City Council Community Impact Fund** _**All our funders for their valuable support Peter Stevenson for examining the accounts All parents and carers of our users and children and young people who make it all worthwhile!!!!!**_ DOVECOTE VOLUNTARY PARENT coMMirrEE CIO TRU3TEE8' REpoirr AND FWANCiAL STATEIIENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 INDEX P8qe 1-3 R•Fort of the Trusto Indep￿￿1 Ex•mrnrf• R StateffOft1 of Financial A¢tivith Not•• to thg FinwKial Ststemenl• Statwnont of Fin•nci•l Actiwtie• 2021r22 (for ¢omp•r￿¥• purpgsM} Det¥rf•d Incom• & ExFendlure Account Rogistered Chm No. 1172048 DOVECOTE VOLupifARY PAREKf COMMThTEE C TRUSTEES.
