## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES**
The objects of the CIO are:
- To advance the Christian faith for the benefit of young people in accordance with the statement of faith appearing in appendix 1 throughout the world and in particular (but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) in Doncaster and its environs;
- the advancement of the Christian faith mainly, but not exclusively by means of proclaiming Christian messages of an evangelistic and teaching nature throughout the
world and in particular (but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) in Doncaster and its environs;
- to demonstrate, promote and encourage Christian values, including Dignity, Empowerment and Partnership to all young people throughout Doncaster and its environs;
- the advancement of the education of children and young people through support and mentoring in schools, colleges and other educational establishments, through lunchtime and after school clubs, street based youth work and other youth provision to develop their physical, mental and spiritual capacities, that they may grow to full maturity as individuals, and that their condition of life may be improved;
- to relieve poverty and sickness thereby demonstrating the Christian faith by promoting overseas service, education, practical action and working with those affected, either directly or through relevant relief agencies.
## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE**
In the 2022/23 period, we continued to partner with churches do outreach in communities, and mentor young people. We saw both of our interns leave at the end of July, and were replaced by another 2 interns in September 2022 which allowed us to develop new partnerships and build upon the work we were doing.
Our interns have partnered with 7 different churches in 6 different areas throughout their time with us, providing weekly children’s and youth groups; outreach and discipleship opportunities and mentoring programs. Throughout the year with our various partnerships we were seeing around 150 children and young people every week. This is a step up from last year where we were working in 3 different areas on a regular basis with around 60 young people and children each week.
Throughout the year we’ve been able to take young people on trips and give them regular opportunity to hear about life and faith in Jesus and build other friendships with other young people from other youth groups.
Our football arena has continued to be a hit and has been hired out by churches on n numerous occasions. It’s great to see an accessible resource being used by churches as they seek to connect and reach people within their community.
One of the key aspects of our ministry is the year out program. By creating a diverse range of opportunity for young adults we are able to train well those who work with us. Our 4 interns throughout this period have benefited greatly from the opportunities they’ve been given.
## **PUBLIC BENEFIT**
Our main aim is to provide religious activities in communities, especially where religious activities are inaccessible to children and young people. Religious activities have included running a weekly youth group in 6 different locations; resourcing churches with our football arena; planning and providing events; mentoring young people 1-1 and in small groups and taking young people on trips.
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 been unable to provide themselves.
## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**
In the year we received £12,689 and we had expenditure of £16,289 leaving us with a total loss of £3600. Our end of year balance (£14,743) however remains healthy for the amount of work we are able to provide at this time. At our current income/expenditure we can continue for a number of years in our current capacity, however we still want to expand the great work we are doing so we see bridging this gap as a priority. We are thankful for all the church and individual support we receive to continue our vital work with young people.
The charity does not currently have a policy on reserves.
