Trustees End of Year Report

Samsons Academy Charity (1181882) Impact Report December 2022 - December 2023

Foreword from the Chief Operating Officer

Page 1 of 11

The board of trustees (and everyone involved) has worked tirelessly and continuously to strive towards the objectives of Samsons with 2023 seeing a marked increase in those using Samsons’ facilitates and services. This has been an increase since the last Trustees report due to a wider coverage of classes and the projects taking place in the wider community. We have witnessed interest from the local and national media (including the BBC) in what we do giving us incredible exposure as well as gaining national recognition by placing second in Project of the Year with the National Lottery in 2021. This demonstrates the much needed value we bring to those in the local community and just how important the work we do continues to be.

We have had a number of projects this year that have been successful in delivering the desired benefits to all who have needed our help. The space and services that Samsons provides continues to give anyone who needs a place to discover their true potential as well as continuing in breaking down social exclusion barriers. Samsons is going from strength to strength and providing an invaluable service that is benefiting the community and those attending the various events and courses run us. The past year has proven to be a great year in the life of Samsons and has really shown the massive value and benefits we bring to all who need us.

We have been delivering combative sports for 5 years at Samsons Academy Charity. Our boxing coaches have been working with young people around Bedfordshire who have been experiencing issues and problems around accessing educations, employment and training. We have gone through small expansion with regards to staffing. Having engaged with funders to access funding for Community Outreach Advocates, Youth Engagement

2022 and 2023 have been telling years for the academy. Insomuch we have grown in the number of community based projects we have been involved with. But also the number of people we have worked with or come into contact with. We have excelled in our men’s health projects seeing the BBC reach out to us about the initiative work we have been carrying out and delivering around Bedfordshire. We have started to reach funders who are prepared to work with us on projects not yet carried out in Bedford. The number of young disenfranchised people we work with has grown to an extent we have allocated a dedicated Engagement Co-ordinator to oversee some of the satellite projects we deliver.

We hope the intervention we have established over the past few years will show you that we are determined to continue to attain our charitable aims and goals. We hope to continue to grow in such a way we maintain a holistic and therapeutic approach to our delivery and always have at the forefront of our minds why we do what we do.

Current Course ran between December 2022 and December 2023

This project tends to work with larger groups of young people who have been identified as belonging to or have had contact and exposure to gang related activity. Bedford has had a growing number of young people who have some form of gang affiliation or membership/association.

This course (Time2Train, Resolution & CSE Weekend Programme) are ran for 12 weeks where the cohorts are taught lessons around timekeeping, following instructions, health and safety, marketing and many many other themes you will find in the work-place, team work, leadership and role responsibilities. We were able to run this or a further 6 weeks (Time2Train and Resolution) due to an extension in the funding we received. The cohorts we work with are normally referred to from parents, schools and also self-referrals at times. Some of them undertake this course prior to joining Bedfordshire Elite Boxing Academy which is also based at Samsons Academy. This is where they learn the fundamental skills around boxing, self control, routines and how to work as a team.

Were the projects completed as planned?

Yes, the projects were started and completed on time and all within the allocated budgets.

The CSE projects which are being funded by the Harpur Trust We are working with Ava Vidal, some of you may know from Mock the Week, Have I got New For You and her column in the Telegraph. An entire course has been written to support the Female Empowerment Course as well as the work the charity carries out with CSE. Hey This has been funded by the House of In-

dustry which will support specifically young women and females from Bedford. There is some cross over in the delivery but this is necessary due to the nature of the work being undertaken, the need for delivery with lived experience and the experience of facing these serious issues.

What were the achievements in relation to the aims and objectives of the projects?

When setting up the goals with the young people who are involved with this project, they are asked what type of goals do they want to achieve. Each young person is treated as an individual, all goals and learning objectives are also individual insomuch that each learner learns at different rates. To ensure they do not feel different from not picking something at a different speed to the others each young person has individual goals to achieve.

LDW is 17 year old male from Bedford, he was mentored throughout his college course after becoming statutorily homeless for a period. He managed to maintain his college placement, attend and sit all of his assessments as well as passing his course with Distinctions. He was given a mentor so that he could meet with them once a week. He is now running a small 3 chair barber shop in Bedford with two other people he met during the course.

One of the Romanian cohort Eddie who came to us as a 14 year old undertaking Time2Train and then RESOLUTION Dying to Belong has this year completed his BSc in Software Engineering. He gained a 2:1 from the University of Leicestershire and has now embarked on completing his MSc in Internet Security.

With Band of Brothers Mental Health, we exceeded our operational and delivery expectations. One of the project outcomes was to train up 100 Men in Bedford. This project has fortunately surpassed our expectations where we have to date trained owe 2000 people across Beds, Herts and Bucks using at the Zero Suicide Alliance Programme and ASIST [Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training]

We carried out a successful comedy night on the 13th August 2022, Stand Up To Suicide hosted 3 comedians. Curtis Walker, Annette Fagon and Rudi Lickwood performed for the above mention cause. All 3 have offered to become Ambassadors for SUTS Band of Brothers Mental Health Project. The night was about suicide intervention and prevention awareness training.

The boxing academy continues to meet x3 times a week, Monday, Wednesday and Friday’s at 7pm until 9pm. Between 55 and 60 young people between the ages of 9 years of age and 30 years of age. Both male and female athletes train together under the responsibility of Avi & Man Kalyan (L3 Coaches) and Len Fuller (L4) All England Boxing Coaches.

The club recently celebrated having two All England Champions in the club wining their titles over a month of boxing competitions around the country. Both come from harder to reach communities and are now lined up to turn semi-pro at the end of 2023. They have been supported with their studies as well as receiving support by one of the counselling team. See outcomes and goals for BEBA.

Alex Goulding another Ambassador has been working with our young male cohort (15 to 23 years of age) on several of these projects delivered. He continues to run the fitness class for the Menopause Marines which has seen an increase in the number of female participants. We have one of the CEA who specialised in menopause, however we have seen new members join as they felt more comfortable with some changes in staff.

What the barriers or challenges did you face in implementing the projects?

During the delivery of the course, we found that over 70% of the cohort had attendance which exceeded 60%. This has been consistent since the previous year which shows continuity with delivery and our referral system.

We had 3 young people whose attendance was less than the pass rate for the course. We had to work with them to increase their attendance and adherence to the course aims. Some of the other barriers encountered were peer pressure not to conform, missing sessions or not completing their personal journals as agreed. This was made easier for some who stated that their literacy skills were not sufficient enough for them to carry out this part of the course. They were all encouraged to make video diaries of they journey through the project which were then shared with their permission with our in-house counselling and therapy service.

Many of the cohort come from areas where they belong to a gang a group etc. many people hear the word gang and automatically associate the negative connotation of this. Many hang out with likeminded individuals that do not perpetuate the generic stereotypical ‘gang’. With the current cost of living crisis which is sweeping the country, many young people who are not in secure home establishments are turning to criminal activity to be able to live. We have seen the number of young people turning to shoplifting and youth criminality on the increase.

What were the apparent strengths and weaknesses of each stage of the intervention?

None were made apparent at the time of review of the course. However, with time we expect that more weaknesses and strengths will become apparent with time.

One which I suspect is the following, when funding projects is kept to a small amounts instead of fully funding higher levels of continued intervention, progress and setbacks can sometimes be endemic. The intervention the academy implements is a programme of learning each stage cannot be separated which could be considered a weakness. It is carried out this way so that all of the cohort move through the course together. Each individual learning plan is set to the ability of the individual.

Many of the cohort come from areas where they belong to a gang a group etc. Many people hear the word gang and automatically associate the negative connotation of this. Many hang out with likeminded individuals that do not perpetuate the generic stereotypical ‘gang’. With the current cost of living dilemma which is

sweeping thee country, many young people who are not in secure home establishments are turning to criminal activity to be able to live. This was gleaned from data which was complied through the use of questionnaires and direct conversations during activity sessions and counselling sessions.

Did the community understand the intervention?

The community are aware of some of the courses we run. Some we do not for reasons of security, confidentiality, privacy, and safeguarding. For the following reasons, breaches in trust and confidentiality could transpire if the public were aware of the full extent of some of the courses. Time2Train and RESOLUTION being two of those courses which might attract some trouble as you are fundamentally getting groups of young people together who may of had some form of disagreement together and having to work through the issues there and then. The element that touches on CSE is not known so that any young person accessing this is not put at risk, ‘patterning’ or ridicule.

Page 6 of 11

Whereas, with Band of Brothers is all about exposure and desensitisation and being able to talk about suicide. To date, we have engaged with just under 900 people in the community. Our social media over the months the BBC production team were filming at the academy rose substantially. We saw a wider proportion of the community contacting the engagement team regarding on-going projects.

Each month we are receiving more and more emails, requests and enquiries about some of our services. We have to be very culturally aware of the CSE project as some of the content they are exposed to and some of the content they bring to the group can be upsetting. This is why we have now bought in a specialist Co-ordinator to manage this area of our delivery.

Were resources available to sustain project activities, and how will the project be sustained?

All resources needed are available at the Academy already. We are fortunate enough to be one of only a handful of charities in Bedford that has their own premises. We have some equipment due to securing funding from the National Lottery previously to purchase boxing equipment, boxing ring, matts, punch bags, gym equipment, skipping ropes etc and other vital things. We still had to cover lunches, and refreshments as a large majority of the young people who access these courses do not have much disposable income to provide additional lunches and meals outside the home environment. For longevity and sustainability funding needs to be planned earlier on with a schedule of delivery for each project.

What was the wider impact of the project for younger people/communities?

The impact the project has had on younger people in the community gives them the security of belonging to a group which covers a large geographical area of Bedfordshire. They become ‘friends’ with others on the course they may never of spoken to previously. They start to recognise the similarities they face with others, their backgrounds, families etc. Within the communities, they start to understand how their behaviours affc others around them. They become more aware of what is deemed as anti-social, they learn about restorative justice and recidivism.

We have seen more parents emailing the Academy asking for information about the boxing academy and if it will be branching out to their schools over the next academic terms. There has been an increase in the

Going from the post course evaluations, the young people have been working with on the CSE Weekend Project came up with the following statements.

“ Why is this not taught in schools seeing as most of us have access to the internet on our phones”

“How come pregnancy in Europe for young people our age is much lower than the UK where the age of consent is much lower in some parts of Europe”?

We have had reports/conversations of some young people using dating apps such as Tinder, Plenty More Fish and Grindr where some state their friends use it/them to get gifts, money and alcohol from guys that like them.

What key publicity was undertaken?

We put posts out on our social media platforms as we do with all our projects. In addition we worked with BBC1 for 3 month on the band of Brothers Project which will be aired in September 2022. This was for a programme called WE ARE ENGLAND . We have also had 6 articles in at the Bedford Independent newspaper reporting on the work we have been carrying out in the wider community. We have had many other organisations contact us since this was aired as it is on iplayer so others have access.

The Senior Management team were invited recently to present a lecture to the Home Office last year and have been invited to present to their High Impact Engagement team again this year coming year. We have also been working more closely with the VERU Village preferred providers across Bedfordshire. They have been responsible for a large number of project delivered in schools and colleges. We have continued to have string access and links to the Home Office and VERU. We have recently become the lead on Community Inclusion with the VERU.

What are your overall comments about the projects experience?

The young people who accessed the course stated in the feedback that they could see the benefits of the course. They said it would be better if this was offered in schools from the age of 10 upwards. To stop things spiralling out of control, intervention and early intervention are paramount to reducing the number of suspensions, expulsions and young people just not engaging with education. (Time2Train and RESOLUTION)

Other students stated the courses where they had direct contact with the tutors was invaluable. The SIA course has a 98% pass rate, with a take-up on employment being 80%. This course is directed towards 18 year old plus. A large percentage of the cohort are from BME backgrounds (76%). We have also seen an increase in the number of females applying to undertake the SIA course. The impact of this is as followed, we will be allowing Anita Powell to train as a tutor to assist in the delivery of the SIA course. (SIA Training and Development) GM, a father of one of the people who took their own life in 2021 stated,

If he had undertaken the suicide awareness on-line training he believes his son would still be alive today. He feels he would have been more aware of his son’s battle with mental illness. (Band of Brothers Mental Health Project)

With an increase to 800 people including women who have also completed this. We have been targeting barbers in the 3 counties to have someone, if not all of them use the on-line training as it has been observed in recent studies that men tend to speak more freely in male orientated spaces. This has involved monthly meetings on a Saturday night at Samsons Academy where the Band of Brothers members meet up. (Band of Brothers Project) From my last meeting with the OIlie Foundation, Baton of Hope which specialises in suicide awareness and intervention plus som others, thy have all mentioned that the BBC programme really helped to raise the awareness around the growing concerns around men’s mental health; and the lack of community based projects which help to combat these.

The Governance Process

We have meetings with the Community Engagement team every Monday at 9.30am for 2 hours, this is attended by the COO, Head of Finance, Course Leaders and the Comms Engagement Advocate, Outreach and Administrator. This is followed by a Finance meeting with KWY, myself and one of the Trustees. This normally takes an hour where we look at current applications etc and funds we have secured.

All course facilitators are expected to convene a review process after each full week of a courses delivery. This takes place with two representatives from the course, namely young people or an older adult. This is then fed into a monthly meeting with all facilitators and corse leaders/ instructors.

Part of this model is the Advisory Model where parts of the courses or projects we put on are led by professionals who come in to deliver the course on our behalf. Part of it is the Management Team Model and some the Policy Board Model. We ensure our governance is up to date and totally transparent. While the board is accountable for oversight of the governance process, management is responsible for implementing the policies and procedures through which governance occurs within the organisation.

Page 8 of 11

The board is responsible for understanding—and for advising management on—the processes through which governance occurs within the organisation, and is accountable for the results of those processes.

Management is responsible for the governance processes and their workings, and for their results. A governance operating model may assist the board and management in fulfilling their governance roles. Such a model is likely to enable the board and the executive leadership to organise the governance structure and the mechanisms by which governance is implemented. By the same token, the lack of a governance operating model may lead to an incomplete or faulty governance structure, or to inconsistencies, overlaps, and gaps among governance mechanisms. Such inadequacies may lead to failure to enact governance policies that the board and management have put in place. We try and ensure this is not the case with regular reviews and by using the guidance provided by the Charities Commission.

We carry out an evaluation with them by conducting a series of questionnaires before they commence a course or project with us. They also have to attend a meeting at the start of any project we deliver and also at the end as well. Only recently we met with 38 young people from 3 different projects we delivered and 20 older hardly reached adults in the month of February. We also ask the participants what outcomes they want to achieve or aim for, along with the objectives we believe or the funders would like us to look out for. Our Safeguarding is fairly robust, we have access to a LADO and and IRO, Independent Reviewing Officer from Sussex Social Services.

Bringing People Together and building strong relationships in and across the communities

We continue to bring people together utilising the projects and the community participation we engage in. With the introduction of the Community Engagement Advocate and the Community Engagement Outreach Worker (x2) with the continued work of the Community Fund Officer(s) we are able to reach a large population of the local and wider community. The work carried out by the team enables the organisations to plan what we are doing periodically and consistently. We hold regular meetings with groups based around Bedford to consult on issues our charity works towards combatting, for example, the work we carry out and deliver around CSE. We were successful in attaining a grant from the House of Industry only this year after another organisation had applied for the same grant. We were able to demonstrate that due to our links in the community and our constant engagement from community members and leaders, we were able to show a stronger form of understanding and cohesion as some of our beneficiaries and delivery partners come directly from theses communities.

We intend on improving the space we currently occupy at Elms Farm Industrial estate in Bedford. The academy is a safe space many have come to use of the 4 years and a space that many more over the national lockdown have started to use. Even when the Afghan refugee crisis started last August we as an organisation were able to implement a crisis plan we had already had to put in place around refugee support. This can be seen on our website and social media platform about the wider links we are forging in the wider community.

Previously, we had never worked with these organisations until one of our Trustees had a chance meeting with a worker from one of the newer organisations we started partnering with. One of the comments that they made when we invited them to a stakeholders meeting was, ‘they never knew we existed’. They now use our space to undertake some of their humanitarian work and we are happy to work with them. We need to renovate some the space we currently inhabit which will make our overall efficacy far improved and a space that others can use more accessible.

Supporting people to reach their potential has always been a key performance indicator within Samsons. By tracking where our cohorts start out and mapping their journey with regular periodic checks/reviews, we have been able to maintain a longer more transactional relationship with them. They are able to tangibly see where they are heading and more importantly where they have come from. Being able to access they counsellors/therapists/tutors/mentors and facilitators through the current programs we have ran, it enables us as a team to support and address concerns at the earliest possible opportunity.

The Impact Your Proposal will have and the difference it will make/Delivery Plan

Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 6pm 50 to 60 young/people/adults come together for Bedfordshire Elite Boxing Academy. There they are taught the skills of competitive All England Boxing and train together. Most of these young people have been involved in some form of youth criminality or gang affiliation. Some have been bullied at school and college and want to be able to look after themselves. Some want to increase their skills in the ring to compete. What they all have in common is they all belong to a family, that family being a club where they get continual emotional support, psychological support, peer support and friendship. Positive relationships where they are able to notice when something in their lives may be maladaptive or toxic. The ability to be able to communicate when something in their lives is going wrong and seek solutions which will keep them safe or less vulnerable. Instead of having to run separate projects which only take them so far we want to be able to support them longer with more longevity.

Getting as many of the young people and young adults into further education or employment or training is paramount. Getting them to recognise they have other choices in life other than following down the route of siblings or sometimes parents into criminal activity is an option, an option that they will get support from unconditionally. We have seen so many young males from many backgrounds who are labelled aggressive or hard to reach growing. Young people who are considered unreachable or simply not worth it.

Yes, we are a BME led organisation but are inclusive to all that need advocacy, assistance and support. We are our community and we are the ones that need to help fix some of the problems our community are facing. We can’t rely on Government handouts or wait for the next major disaster to manifest. Being a proactive and progressive charity, we have seen some of the societal problems we are facing and started work on these years back. With the closure of any youth and special educational needs services, day centres, sports centres and clubs closed because of lac of funding, this have perpetuated the growing number of issues we are now encountering. To date we have helped and supported through various projects over 2.4k people across Bedfordshire.

Weekends we have CSE classes for those at risk, we even sometimes see parents come in who are concerned about their young people with regards to being groomed or facing sexual exploitation. We have instructors who are specifically trained in this line of work and support around 100 young people over 10 weekends. Most of the work we undertake take place at Samsons Academy, Unit 1, 1 Shuttleworth Road Bedford MK41 0HS. Some of the work we undertake takes place at Samsons Fitness (SF2 Bedford) such as the Release on Temporary License with Bedford Prison and Hertfordshire & Cambridge Probation Service as the prison is located in closer proximity to Samsons Fitness. They have a similar name however we are different companies now with different Directors. They are one of many partners we are now working with.

We are aware the projects we run are the right approach due to the uptake, the referral and more importantly the outcomes we achieve with them. We have a structured team of professionals we work with all our cohorts on varying projects. Some of the summer activities (sports related) may take place at a different venue. We have recently started working with Sports Traider who provide all the sports kits, boots, balls etc for a program we support in Luton schools, where females from the harder to reach communities get to play in a football tournament with other harder to reach females over summer.

Page 10 of 11

We intend on developing the academy where classes can be ran everyday and throughout the day. We plan on making it a mega-hub where people are able to come in or just drop in to see someone regarding their Childs education needs/support due to being excluded. Which we are seeing more and more with white working class males and young males from the BME community.

Continuing to deliver the service past the funding period

Because some projects are no longer being funded we will not be running them again unless they are funded again to do so. Expectations to deliver a project or to continue it requires capital funding to make the project viable. You still have all the same costs and expenditure to cover after your funding ceases. We have been successful in attaining funding from the National Lottery for the period of 2022 to 2023/24. We will continue to deliver projects in two main areas of social deprivation from the funding we received from the Harpur Trust/The VERU/Home Office and ward funding from local Government. Queens Park, Kingsbrook and Caudwell wards in Bedford have historically been areas where infrastructural funding has been limited and reduced. This has caused increased raises in youth criminality, increased truancy, low social and academic engagement as well as sporadic employment. We have been working with other organisations such as the Big Local and in talks with some other CIC’s around youth delivery.

With the support of the different projects and contact from the engagement staff we have maintained contact and positive youth engagement.

Working Partners

The working partners we are currently engaged with in active projects is slowly growing. We work with the Harpur Trust on a couple of projects as well as the National Lottery Fund, The VERU and OPCC of Bedfordshire Police. We also work with Children’s Services for Bedford Borough Council and a number of projects such as Just Purple Presents and Sports Traider and BLMK CCG.

This concludes the last year for Samsons Academy, we would like to thank all the funders who have worked with the academy team and other organisations that have seen the changes we have made and supported through our work. We would also like to thank all the community who have entrusted us to work with some of the hardest to reach people countywide.
