ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Our third year as a centre started in a national lock down due to the covid-19 pandemic. This quickly meant that we had to change our plans and change the way we work to best support young people at this time.
All of our groups moved online, and weekly we engage with numerous young people, continuing to support them in their faith journey and development. As restrictions eased towards the summer months, we were able to meet in person, however sessions quickly moved back online as the autumn and winter came. Throughout the year we have been able to stand alongside young people and encourage them in their one of their hardest years. We have had numerous messages from parents thanking us for being there, a constant whilst everything else closed down.
We purchased some filming equipment in the year as we moved online, and we were not only able to create our own resources and sessions for young people to engage with, but we were also able to help other churches provide content for both children and young people. This became a large part of our role throughout the year.
In September 2020, we had our first year out placement. Our student stayed the year with us, working with young people in schools and communities. She mentored young people, building their confidence and skills for life, and worked on many of our groups, even running one of her own groups of young people with one of the churches we partner with. Our hope is that we will increase our capacity through ‘The year out’ programme in the coming years.
Whilst we haven’t been able this year to hold any events or have any mission teams over to Doncaster. We have throughout the year worked tirelessly 1-1 and in small groups. We have been able to strengthen our relationships with the churches we work with and the young people we work with.

PUBLIC BENEFIT
Our main aim to provide religious activities in communities, especially where religious are inaccessible to children and young people. Religious actives have included running a weekly youth group in 3 different locations, and various religious events with bands.
We have mentored a number of young people this year via zoom 1-1, and supported them in small groups.
Alongside our main aims, we have supported other churches and christian charities in their outreach to young people. Much of the work we have provided for them, they would have bene unable to provide themselves.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The finances of the charity are increasingly healthy and we are thankful for all the church and individual support we receive to continue our vital work with young people. In the year we received £16,150. We also had expenditure of £11,793 leaving us in a healthy position moving into the 2021/22 financial year as we build upon last year,
We are thankful for all support, financially and voluntarily to the charity this year as we seek to continue our work with young people.
The charity does not currently have a policy on reserves.
