Objectives and Activities

|---|---|---|
| Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document |
Para 1.17 | To advance in life and help young people through the provision of support and activities which develop their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as mature and responsible individuals in particular but not exclusively by running structured courses which increase individual and collective knowledge of life skills. |
| Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts. |
Para 1.17 and 1.19 |
In order to achieve the objects set out in the governing document Funpact runs courses within schools and local communities. Funpact focuses on 3 important aspects of education – the transition to secondary school, the safe transition between reliance on parents/carers in their every day life to growing in independence and also supporting children who struggle to make the most of school. Funpact also supports youth alumni who have completed one of the courses to become youth mentors who support Funpact by leading the updating of resources and workshop content as well as sharing their lived experience during sessions regarding starting secondary school, use of social media and keeping safe when travelling independently and with friends. These courses are run in fun, informative and interactive sessions led by qualified teachers, family support workers and other professionals where appropriate. By bringing together both the pupil and parent/carer together Funpact ensures that families have the opportunity to |
| learn and explore together and build a firm foundation of knowledge which can be built on further at home. |

Para 1.20 | YEAR 6th April 2023 – 5th April 2024 The focus of this year has been to build relationships with new organisations, increase our social media and complete important training for staff. We achieved this by being supported to create a social media strategy through another charity, building relationships with a local organisation which now hosts our workshops and events for free, becoming a member of London Youth and undertaking training. We have also now been commissioned to run transition to secondary workshops in the new family hubs. One of our achievements was being commissioned by the local Gang Violence and Exploitation Unit in Hammersmith an Fulham to run 2 workshops in White City to support vulnerable families in the area. 30 |
people came and it was successful in building a safe community and giving positive opportunities to the youth that came to build future skills to keep them safe. We now have 2 members of the team who oversea safeguarding and social media as well as networking with local organisations and schools. This has enabled more families to be signposted to the workshops run by Funpact. Another of our greatest achievements was the creation of Youth mentors who are youth alumni of workshops we have run who now lead on the updating of resources and course material as well as share their own lived experience during sessions. For example at the transition to secondary sessions and workshops around social media and keeping safe. In December we held our first End of Year celebration which enabled families to come together and build positive connections and share strategies for supporting their youths as well as have fun.
