South Northan15 Youth Engagement ISNYEI is an established youth charity which has continued to
grow in stability and capability through the collective work of our dedicated team and partners. Even
in challenging limes for the youth sector, this report will show another successful year of operation.
SNYE expanded ils funding base and increased our youth provision to reach more young people with

workers and a growing team of trained volunteers. This year we launched our Youth Council., we
supported more community events, and our Play & Activity Days scaled-up to attract the highest

SNYE ran holiday clubs in Brackley during school breaks in May and October providing multi-arts
sessions including arts & crafts, sports, baking, music, games and dance. We also ran a Holiday
Activities and Food IHAFI programme over the summer period. Since 2017, we have organised
annual Play and Activity Days in Brackley and Towcesler. These free community events are for
families and young people lo enjoy a range of activities and attractions and be informed about local
