Barking & Dagenham Youth Zone Pa8e I Trustees, RopJ¥t Ind Financial StJtement5 For the yéar ended 31 March 2023 CHAIRS REPORT I'm delighted to be able to Introduce myself as &arklThg and Dagenharn Youth Zone's new Chairperson followlng the retlrerrnt of Charles Mlndenhall, our found5n8 Chalrperson, in March 2023. Charles led the Charlty for 6 year5 and was responsible for guiding our developtnentfrom Inltkl conTrpt all the way through to a fully operatlonal Charity. Charle5, tenure was not without its Challenges whlch Intluded a global pandemlc and the beginnings of the current Cost of Llvlng Crlsis. However. it IS testament to Charles, the wider board of Trustees and our hard workingstaff team that the Charlty has wmpetentw navigated those challenges and continues to provide much needed support lor young people and the wider tommunity. In addition to Charles. departu, l a150 want to pass on my thanks to Ash Siddique and Yvonne Kelly who retld from their role5 a5 Trustees In the last year. Both Ash and Yvonne ensured that our board of Trustees Mained focussed on the needs of the cornrnunlty and we are all gratefvl for their contributions during their time on the board. We were all thrllled to be able to welcorne 5uriyaa Gnanapandithan to the board of Trustees in recent months who will take on the role oFAssoclate Trustse. I know Surlyaa will be focussed on ensurlng the volces of youn8 people are front and cerntre of all our declslon making over the next fewyears. The last year ha5 seen the Charity resume a full peTiod of serv8 to young people wlthout any of the pandernic-related changes In clrcumstances that we'd become accustomed to over the prevlous two year5. The Irnpacts of the pandernic have been far reachin8 and have certalnly been clear throughout our work th15 year. A new study Into the soclal lives of chlldren and young people aged 11-18 In England, published by Onside, showed that young people In London are navigatlng a world outside of school that is increasingly isolated and hon-based, wlth Ilmited opportunltles for face-tO- face 50clallsln& maklng new frlends or meeting people In person. The report found that one in five young people119%1 in London spend most of thelrfree tlme alone. The report went on to show that 57% of young people In London say they are watrhlng MO streamed content now than before the Covld-19 lockilown,. 38% of younE people say they a dolng more gaming now than before the Covid- 19 pandemlc.. and 33% are watchlng more TV now. The role of place5 Ilke Barking aThd Dagenham Youth Zone has never been more needed and I'm feally proud of the work that has been achieved by the tearn in the last year. Over the course of the last year the Youth Zone ha5 retzined an aVerae of 3632 mernbeT5 and ha5 seen an aver8Re of just under IOC¥) young people access our UnNersal sessions eath week. We've also started dellverlng servlces for young people outside of the Youth Zone at Marks Gate which is at the most northern part of the borough. Over 60 young people attended some of those sessions which is testament to th& team's dedlcatlon to building trustlng relationships wlth youn8 people and the wlder communlty. We try to be as Incluslve and representstive of the whole community a5 we can be and therefore I'm pleased to report that IO% of our member5 tell us they have an addltlonal need, 65% of rnembers come fiom Blaci As5an or other Ethnic Mlnorlty background5 and 25% of our members are entlded to Fe School Meals. We served 28,087 nutriou5 meals durfng the year, of which 11,085 were f as part of our response to the cost of living crisis and ensuring all young people un have a hot meal each dav.

EThsudnB that new incorne stream5 continue to develop suetessful alongside maintalnlng the support of our Incredlble emlstlng group of funders will provide the long-term sustalnablllty of ourCharity- In the last financial year the Charty was irnparted by the cost of living crisis from a financial perspettive and we have reported a deficit foi the first time in our annual accounts. This was in part due to energy costs that tripled In mparison to the prevlous financi41 period as well as our decision to bring fcrward an increase In stsff remuneration- we continue to be a proud memberof the Real Llvln8Wa8e Foundation. Our collaboration with local. regional and national organisations glves further depth to our work and en5$ that we are an integral part of the to[ community. In the lastyearwe became a foundlng member of the Councll's Safe Havens 5rhÈme which means that we are desiBn8ted as a welcomlng place in the borough Whe all people can get immedlate help when they need it.

Wh115t RDF only needed a few weeks of supportfrom the Youth Zone, thi5 provides a good example of how we can add value to likemlnded groups and OrganIlI0nS In the area. We are also very proud that 8èbyzone, a concept that was plloted and developed at our Youth Zone. became a Charlty In its own rlght. Thls isn't the flrst tlme a new Charity supportlng the local community ha5 formed from eady be8lnnlngs and support at our Youth Zone and we hope it won't be the last. I'm pleased that Barking and Dagenham Youth Zone continues to play an active part of the Onside Network of Youth Zone5.

The numbers of volunteers that we work wlth has Steadily increased over the last few rnonth5 partly due to our developing relationships with lotal universltles and ongolng success of our Young Leade programme. Providing COr pathways for young people who wish to becorre Youth Workers will help us to be well P051tioned despite the ongoing recrur(ment and retention thallenges across the third sector and beyond.
