MANAGEMENT

The centre has limited paid members of staff. The day to day running of the centre is managed by Robyn Thomas. The trustees would like to thank all the staff and volunteers who have worked and supported Stanleys through this exceptionally challenging year.

5

The Trustees have worked to meet the objectives as outlined in their governance document. The trustees report and attached accounts comply with the current statutory requirements of Foundation Model Charitable Incorporated Organisation as outlined by the Charity Commission “accounting and reporting by charities’’.

This past year has been an amazing year for Stanleys we continued to work tirelessly to help keep Stanleys operating so that people in the West End of Morecambe and its surrounding areas can benefit from access to everything we have to offer. This impact is clear in the increase of footfall to 285 per week.

Whilst it has been an amazing year in terms of growth it’s evident that the number of people reaching out to Stanleys in need of support has increased greatly, because of the cost-of-living crisis. We continue to offer help, warmth, comfort and most importantly food and drinks. We have fed our service users breakfast and light lunch for free throughout the year.

We are so proud of our team of volunteers who have given up their free time to support Stanleys. I would especially like to thank all the service users young and old who raised money for Stanleys throughout the past year including Rebecca Watson who did the Great North Run and Lukas Brown who skydived from 15,000 feet.

Due to the complexities of the issues our staff have dealt with, by December they were beginning to feel burnt out. The trustees made the unprecedented decision to shut Stanleys completely for one week, allowing staff to just rest. Although this decision was bold it was very well supported by funders and our community.

Following this week, staff bounced back pulling off a very well attended Christmas fair and providing the magic of Christmas with free visits to Santa in his grotto.

I would like to say a massive thankyou to all our wonderful staff who show dedication by the bucket full, giving up their valuable free time on top of their working hours to keep Stanleys the much-loved home from home it’s become for all service users young and old.

As our charity grows the board recognises the need for its own growth. Trustees participated in and asset based skills review and have increased the board to ensure we have, as wide a representation as possible with skills needed to take us forward in the years ahead.

Lastly, I would like to say an extra special thank you to Robyn Thomas our charity founder who continues to dedicate time and effort into developing Stanleys.

Louise Stansfield

MANAGERS REPORT HIGHLIGHTING OUR ACHIEVEMENTS OVER THE PAST YEAR

Over the past year Stanleys has become the Community Hub of the West End supporting everyone from birth up. This would not have been possible if it wasn’t for the fantastic team of staff, volunteers and the community support we gained through the many activities we have ran.

When looking back over this year we are amazed by what we have achieved and what we have packed into the 12 months that this report reflects.

We wish to pay special thanks this year to the partners that have supported us and helped us achieve our aims.

Phil Sykes and Morecambe Bays Poverty Truth Commission who throughout the year has worked closely with our young people. Listening to them, understanding them, and then producing some great films highlighting young people’s experiences of living in poverty.

Guy Christianson and the team at Lancashire Youth Challenge who we partnered with, to deliver Morecambe Bays 1st Youth Triathlon. This partnership was particularly successful and Guy and I created a short film about partnership working which has been used across county as an example of best practice.

Due to an increase in numbers attending Stanleys we have put staff through additional training to support staff dealing with complex issues.

All staff are now Mental Health First Aid and Suicide Awareness Trained. Several staff are now Health Coaches and senior staff have completed Making Every Contact Count, and Trauma informed training.

7

Below is a weekly timetable typically this was changed 3 times within a year.

This timetable was overseen by our Health and Wellbeing Coach. The timetable included many different activities to engage the community whilst promoting positive mental and physical wellbeing, whilst reducing isolation and loneliness. Sessions were held on a one to one basis and a group setting.

8

Women’s Health Programme was delivered by Clair Scrimshaw who held sessions both on a weekday morning as well as once a month each Saturday. The session was aimed at females wanting information and support around all women’s health issues, with specific support around perimenopause and menopause where an increase in poor mental health was often identified.

Hypnotherapy during this year we worked with a hypnotherapist who worked on both a one to one and a group basis providing support for 23 individuals. They supported people with issues like weight loss, phobias, addiction and anxiety and trauma. Although we saw some success with this project, we were unable to support this long term due to lack of funding and the cost to ourselves of offering this service.

5 ways to Wellbeing delivered in partnership with Red Rose Recovery These sessions helped people to goal set and to reflect on what they had achieved and how they could make changes going forward.

9

Tai Chi Qigong was delivered by Carol Lee, these sessions have been weekly and have been held in Stanleys and weather permitting at the beach. These sessions were attended on average by 12 people, and were supported by funding obtained through The population Health Investment Fund. Attendees reported an increase in wellbeing and felt that they felt more grounded.

Meditation was delivered by Julie Meyfroidt Chapman in partnership with the Tara Centre, supported by Active Lancashire. It was fantastic to be able to deliver this session in person after being online due to covid. The average attendance on a weekly basis was 17.

10

Craft group created a safe space for people to come together to both share and learn new crafting skills. Some of the crafts made were then sold at various fairs we held throughout the year.

“at the end of the day Stanleys is a lifeline. There’s nothing else for people in the town who are struggling. Stanleys is a proper community centre everything we need as a community is here and there are so many groups on offer you can’t count them.

Hygiene Bank Support

As the Cost-of-Living Crisis started to impact our community we started a partnership with Lancaster Hygiene Bank as we had identified that these everyday essentials items were things that weren’t prioritised on peoples weekly shops due to increased costs. During the year we took donations of female hygiene products, shampoo, conditioner, shower gels, anti bac gels, household cleaning products and much more. Donations were collected as follows.

30/07 61.8kg 25/10 154.50kg 18/01. 303.00kg 05/03 94.97kg 29/03. 77.10kg

We wish to thank the Lancaster Hygiene Bank and their team of fantastic volunteers who have supported us throughout the year.

In October a group of businessmen from Lancaster rang to see if we had any DIY projects they could get involved with. This was an excellent opportunity to get the main hall painted all white which gave us a blank canvas. We are very grateful to Paul Corcoran and his team he came in and got the job done in just a day.

12

Food Support

Our food club has remained constantly busy, with an average 87 members attending our weekly food club and 127 families on our register.

We increased our food support offering Free Breakfast and Free Light Lunches. Stanleys became a winter Warm Hub and received £500 support from the Council with donations of Hot Chocolate and Tea and Coffee.

This service was exceptionally well used and with additional funding, we were able to continue this support.

Volunteers have worked alongside us throughout the year have helped us to collect surplus food from Fareshare, Greggs in Carnforth and KFC Morecambe. At Christmas we were assigned surplus food on Christmas Eve from Lidl Morecambe. This was something we hadn’t done previously, so turned up at 6pm on Christmas Eve with just a cool box and 1 large bag. This was a huge mistake,

We put a call out and the community responded within 1 hour we had managed to move all the surplus food from Lidl to Stanleys.

Christmas Day

For the first time on Christmas day we opened up to support some of the most isolated members of our community. This day was completely volunteer led and saw

just under 300 people who came in stopped for a chat or a coffee or simply just to take some of the surplus food.

“Stanleys Community Centre the major hub of Morecambe’s West End, run for the community, By the Community. Through the deep connections Stanleys have with their community members, we are able to hear and understand what our local residents are saying in ways that would never be possible without them. They keep us grounded and focused on the real needs of the real people”-Lancaster District Food Justice Partnership.

13

Community Events

At key times within the year we held open community events such as Quizzes, Bingo, Fairs etc. We realised that many families might have to forgo treats like visits to Santa etc so we decided to create a Christmas Grotto within Stanleys. We then held special SEN closed sessions in which families with young people could visit Santa in a calm quiet environment. These sessions were pre booked and gave up to 15 minutes with Santa, no queuing and most importantly no expectation to pay, as it was donations only so was accessible to all. Following the SEN visit Santa attended our Christmas Fair and in total saw 167 children who each took away a selection box from their visit.

Youth Social Prescribing

In April 2022 in Partnership with Bay Medical and More Music we employed a Youth Social Prescriber this was a full-time post-split equally with ourselves and More Music we were able to employ someone on a 18.5 hour contract. Lukas Brown our Activity Coach took on this role and has worked alongside Maxine from More Music to deliver Social Prescribed activities to young people between the age of 11 and 19.

- The following has been taken from the 2022 2023 Report written in partnership with More Music

In 2022 Bay Medical Group, through the PCN sought a new way to provide mental health support to children and young people at a time when CAMHS and other services were overwhelmed. Rather than appoint within BMG it was decided the new roles of young person’s social prescribers were best placed within two West End based organisations already working closely with large numbers of young people.

The service was developed to tackle the wider determinants of poor mental health and to reduce the number of young people referred to secondary care by supporting them within primary care. The legacy of the pandemic has created profound challenges for young people over the past year – with education, work, relationships, and social time all affected.

We also know about the wider societal issues, which pile pressure on teens e.g. to make it to college as the way to a better job in the future, and the social trends which might undermine their security as they transition from child to adult. Combined with significant changes in how young people live and socialise currently – such as a huge increase in the use of social media – it is perhaps unsurprising that we’ve seen trends of increasing levels of depression, self -harm, anxiety, eating disorders and other mental health issues.

The Young Person’s Social Prescribing service was established in May 2022 and is delivered in a partnership between Stanleys Community Centre and More Music. The Young Persons Social Prescribers can accept referrals for people aged from 11 years to 19 years, who are registered with Bay Medical Group.

Social prescribing seeks to address people’s needs in a holistic way. It also aims to support individuals to take greater control of their own health. Social prescribing can help support people to: make lifestyle changes, connect with groups and activities in the community and includes supportive personalised conversations to help improve health and wellbeing. The referrals generally, but not exclusively, come from professionals working in primary care settings, for example, GPs or practice nurses.

Facilitating access to meaningful activities can support young people’s physical and mental heath and wellbeing, and engaging in a group or activity can help to develop young people’s confidence in a range of ways, helping them to meet other young people, sparking motivation through a new interest, being more active, feeling more connected, less isolated.

15

Outcomes from this year:

There has been a significant difference in the number of referrals made by doctors to each organisation. Maxine has taken a higher percentage of GP referrals compared to Lukas whose percentage of external referrals has been greater. The most frequent and most significant reasons for referrals across the board are anxiety, anger, self-harming and low mood. Almost every young person we have met has some kind of school related issue, resulting in poor attendance, in many cases leading to an escalation of problems. And, although school hasn’t always been the principal reason for referral, it has frequently been a significant contributing factor. We discovered that in trying to signpost children and young people to meaningful activity that there are in fact very limited options; with few thriving clubs or out of school activity available for physically or mentally challenged young people. Affordable opportunities for young people to meet informally outside school are seriously limited. Organisations, such as Prop Up Project struggle to cater for the increase in numbers of young people who need support. Initially established as a bespoke service, the increased demand is challenging the charity to stay true to its original aims. It quickly became apparent how the young person social prescribing role differs to that of the

Adult Social Prescribers and how the action required seems to be more complicated and resolution longer to achieve. Very few young people we meet are ready to engage with any kind of intervention or participate in an activity immediately following initial referral, and it can take weeks to build trust before getting to grips with the issues they face. Inevitably, some cases are more complex than others and the system of support is unbalanced, i.e. there is no middle ground for support, options are either low level intervention for anxiety, anger, low mood, such as TAPP for example, or high-level involvement from CAMHS. Where young people meet criteria for identified services there are long waiting lists. We have identified that many young people referred are becoming lost in the system with limited or no support. However, young people referred to social prescribers can access an initial appointment with Maxine or Lukas within 2 weeks, which is significantly different to waiting times for other services, which can be months or even years long. In response to this work

and as a result of our findings, Stanleys has set up a CAT session (Combat Anxiety together), which is a peer led support group providing a safe space specifically for people struggling with anxiety. In total throughout the year the social prescribers worked with 82 young people.

During this year we also introduced several sessions aimed at the youngest members of our community from birth up this has included Baby Massage, Mini NRG Movers for 2-4 year olds and Music Movement and Me for 2 years and under this was delivered by NRG Dance. Special thanks To Miss Elly for all her hard work, energy and support.

Youth Work:

The youth team hit the ground running at the beginning of the year. On the 4thof May, several of the young people we work with, spoke to a room of a 100 people at the Opening event of the Morecambe Bay Poverty Truth Commission 3rd round. They spoke openly and bravely about their experiences of living in poverty in Morecambe.

This successful event was just the start of our work with the Poverty Truth Commission who we have worked with closely to produce both films and events. The young people invited the commissioners to Stanleys for an event in which they cooked a meal from Jack Monroe’s Tin Can Cookbook and then talked about the meals they had whilst at school and the issues of food poverty in our area. = https://youtu.be/4Jyz_Cvz8bw?si v7xyNjpCrgC1G2Qf

They also looked at the different types of poverty = https://youtu.be/2KVorRhJpqg?si C5thZjkl1YJ7gB1K

Then they researched the pay for various jobs and decided to rank the jobs in order of what they felt was more fair for each role to be paid.

Send It football sadly finished this year due to lack of funding, we did however run another football project in partnership with Lancaster boys and girls club and…

Our largest youth project by far this year was the Morecambe Bay Triathlon in partnership with Lancaster Youth Challenge and Bay Leadership Academy. Where 30 young people walked, cycled and swan to success. The young people and staff trained for several months from April to July in the gym, pool, and on the bikes. This project was a response from us and LYC, to the fact that post covid young people had no aspirations. The project was supported by Go Velo who trained the young people in road biking and provided the insurance cover for this project. There were many outcomes from this project including one of our staff members teaching a young person to swim. On the very first day of this challenge, we were uncertain whether this was going to be possible.

On the 9th of July the challenge started with a 70 mile bike ride from Walney Island to Morecambe. They then completed a virtual swim of Morecambe Bay by swimming 8 miles in relay in Salt Ayre Leisure Centre. The triathlon concluded on the 6th of August with a walk across Morecambe Bay to raise money for Cancer Care.

We held a celebration at the end of September at Stanleys to recognise the huge achievements of all involved in this project.

19

Training and other opportunities.

In September 4 of our youth team who had been studying at Lancaster and Morecambe College were invited to take part in 5 day training project in Bucharest Romania. The project was called Social Innovation for Europe and was part funded by the European Commission overseen by the British Council. The projects aim was looking at approaches in youth work and social innovation with intercultural activities with young participants from Turkey, Romania , Slovakia, Italy and Spain.

This was one of the last opportunities for youth workers to be involved in a project like this due to Brexit. Our 4 workers were the only people from the UK.

20

We refer some of our most complex and vulnerable young people to Stanleys, and know that they will be treated with the utmost care and respect. There is a real gap in services regarding young people who are struggling with their mental health, especially those with poor attendance or who are not in school at all so are unable to access other provisions.” - Sally Senior | Senior Family Support Worker | Children & Family Wellbeing Service

Whilst completing some of our larger projects we still managed to deliver our full youth programme which included drop in sessions in which young people could come in have some food, gain support with homework and be together with their peers just having fun.

Our Focus group covered many topics including, County Lines, Drug and Alcohol services, Mental Health support, Sexual Health, The Morecambe Bay Curriculum and Poverty issues. These sessions were delivered to a maximum of 18 young people at one time.

Our Holiday activity Food programme saw us work with 174 young people across Summer, Christmasand Easter. We were able to offer activities based in our local area including, local parks and visits to thecinema, bowling and other venues. We delivered arts and crafts, dance,

music, games and sports activities. The funding for this project allowed us to take young people further afield to venues such as Blackpool Pleasure Beach. We also ran challenge days in which we ran Ready Steady Cook style competitions, these proved very popular. We offered 30 different days activities and supported families with children by giving them free access to our food club which gave the at least £20 worth of food for the 6 weeks the HAF programme ran.

Thriving Minds Funding from UK Youth allowed us to offer One to one support for young people suffering from poor mental health. We listened to young people who have been questioning why adults get to make decisions about young people without them. In partnership with Lancaster City Council, they held conversations about topics that are important to them. This included, Environment, Mental Health, War in Ukraine, The Education System and Food Poverty. Following the initial conversation, we have gone on to have further

conversations led by young people. The young people’s mental health and wellbeing has improved significantly, and we have seen all attendance grow as young people signpost their peers to our support. In January 2023, our Director and Youth Manager went to Warwick as part of UK Youths Conference. This was an excellent opportunity to network and to share and discuss the issues within youth work. We were also able to highlight the brilliant work our youth team have delivered this year.

Many thanks go to Francis Scott Trust, UK Youth, Lancaster City Council, The Westminster Foundation and Lancaster District CVS who have supported our youth work this year.
