## **Executive Summary** 

EDPS – CIO trading as MovementWorks – was established in 2017 to provide high-quality movement education experiences in deprived areas of London to children, young people, vulnerable adults, their carers and educators. We aim to make movement-based learning more accessible to all, with a focus on those with financial hardship, physical disabilities and learning difficulties such as autism, and other marginalised groups including black and ethnically diverse communities. 

Our programmes since our creation have transformed the lives of thousands by boosting physical wellbeing and mental health, improving communication skills and self-confidence and reducing the feeling of social isolation and lack of community. 

They are also designed to form a strong base for the National Curriculum by complementing learning in the core subjects of literacy and maths for primary school students. 

Our work is delivered by specially trained, freelance professional artists at mainstream and special educational schools, Early Years settings, children centres, community groups that support vulnerable adults and community leisure facilities. 

Since our inception we have established protocols and policies and updated them for GDPR, Complaints, Privacy Policy, Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy, Equal Opportunities Policy, Health and Safety Policy, Behaviour Support Policy/Volunteer Policy, Risk Assessment, Monitoring Progress and Social Impact. 

All the Trustees have been inducted and have observed a variety of the sessions on offer to our beneficiaries. 

In early 2021 the charity was delivering services both online and in person, depending on the requirement of the settings we worked with. We continued to use the successful classes we had developed to deliver online during Covid. 

Most schools and community groups continued receiving our services online and some increased their activities with us. 

In a small number of cases, we returned to deliver our sessions in small socially distanced groups. 

For example, with our second year of Children in Need funding we were able to continue to work with young children with complex needs at the Enhanced Children’s Centre in Wandsworth.  In addition, post-lockdown we supported the most severely affected children at West Hill Primary School in Wandsworth. 

In 2021 in addition to our Children in Need Year 2 award, we were successful in receiving grants from UK Youth, GLA Active Londoners Fund, The Cheshire Community Fund and The William Brake Foundation. All of these allowed us to expand our operations to a wider group of settings. 

For example: 

- The grant from the Ironmongers’ Company (received at the end of the previous year) allowed us to start a new project with Spa Camberwell autism specialist school 

Educational Dance Provision Services T/A MovementWorks Registered Charity No. 1176176 




_“We have been privileged in having the opportunity to offer MovementWorks to our children. The outcomes of the programme have exceeded our expectations. All pupils have increased their ability to engage in the sessions. The online sessions necessary during Covid19 restrictions were equally as effective. There has been a positive impact on their ability to maintain joint and shared attention and to participate as a group.  The programme has played a valuable role in developing their communication skills.”_ Headteacher, Spa Camberwell 

- The UK Youth Covid Relief Grant allowed us the vital opportunity to continue working with the most clinically vulnerable through extending ‘MovementWorks Online’ for an additional 3 months until the end of March 2021.

- Our second London Mayor grant supported a project called ‘Action for Activity’ which responded to the needs of children most affected by the lockdown. This blended project delivered classes online (for children with autism) and face-to-face for the London Early Years Foundation in the New Cross area, one of the most deprived areas of London. 

_“The children’s understanding and confidence grew week on week, and they showed improvements in focus on tasks, following instructions and joining in. One child who had previously been non-verbal (selective mute) since attending the setting started speaking at first to peers and then to staff for the first time during the delivery of the project. All staff involved reported that the project enabled the children to thrive.”_ LEYF Playhouse Nursery 

With ‘MovementWorks Online’ coming to an end, we wanted to respond to the interest in having a more permanent digital content available. By the end of Spring of 2021 we raised £12,633.00 through an Aviva Crowdfunding Campaign which was supported with a boost from Sport England.

MovementWorks On Demand Library 

With the funds we have created a library of high-quality filmed pre-recorded sessions (based on the live programme). This initiative provides a new way to continue to support and respond to the needs of our current network and also grow the numbers of the disadvantaged beneficiaries we support. ‘MovementWorks On Demand’ will enable us to implement a long-term sustainable strategy which we intend to develop. 

With the lifting of the most severe Covid restrictions, by late Spring and during the Summer we were able to return to delivering mainly in person and expand our activities working with community partners such as: 

- A Summer Activities Programme – for children with autism and their siblings and families. 


Summer Activities Programme 

- Magic Movers – a family learning programme for young children with complex needs.

We were also able to reinstate our CPD and training programmes including the previously postponed AMT (Autism Movement Therapy) Level II Training Workshop. 


Some of the graduates from our Autism Movement Therapy® Level II Training 

The year ended with two great events: 

- MovementWorks was a finalist in the London Sport Awards 2021 in the category ‘Uniting London’. 


- We celebrated our achievements at the end of the year with a Silent Disco – a festive dance party for children with autism and their families.
