The founder was the Director of the Pastoral Mentoring work and was asked by all of the schools where the mentoring services were being delivered to continue that service delivery. The schools said there was no other provision able to meet the needs of their vulnerable students in the same timely and effective way. When the other staff and existing volunteers committed to continue the work, the founder setup SHINE YOUTH immediately so that young people had no break in the support they were receiving. SHINE YOUTH was registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) by the Charity Commission on 23 September 2019. ## Objectives The purpose of the Charity as set out in its Governing Document is to promote and protect the positive mental health and emotional wellbeing of young people aged 11-18 years who are experiencing mental health and emotional difficulties related to experiences of grief and loss; low mood, low self-esteem; anger; stress and anxiety; childhood trauma; domestic violence and selfharm. The Charity does this through providing: - 1:1 Pastoral Mentoring & Counselling and Wellbeing Group courses for young people to reduce their distress; advance their self-care, social and emotional skills; and facilitate the growth of their positive mental health, self-identity, resilience and self-esteem. - Psycho-education and evidence-based tools and strategies to young people and their parents/ carers, teachers, youth workers and others so that young people are supported in mental healthand trauma-informed ways. In so doing, the Charity’s work supports young people to build their resilience and fulfil their potential to flourish in their relationships, education, community and future work and family life. ## Public Benefit The Trustees have regard to the guidance from the Charity Commission on reporting on Public Benefit and are committed to ensuring the Charity delivers public benefit as it fulfills its objectives. The Charity offers its activities to all people of any faith or none and does so in accordance with Christian principles and unconditional positive regard, respect and empathy. ## Vision SHINE YOUTH is passionately committed to ensuring that Young People: - experience Care, Connection, increased Confidence and positive Change when they are in need of mental health and emotional support; 2 are not left waiting without support; - can access a range of support with in-school options (where the majority spend the majority of their time) and options in their local community, particularly if they are not attending school or that is not their preferred or most suitable setting to access personalised support; and feel seen, heard, involved and are able to shape the support on offer to them. SHINE YOUTH envisions a landscape where all 11 -18 year olds are able to easily access the Right Support for their need, at the Right Time, in the Right Way. ## Strategy Recognising the scale of the mental health crisis amongst those aged 11 – 18 years, our approach seeks to deliver innovative, responsive and integrated provision. This provision is graduated and targeted to deliver prevention, early intervention, and more specialist support in settings which young people find comfortable and easily accessible. It requires us to go DEEP & WIDE to provide 3 skilled, evidence-based programmes alongside Training and Youth Voice groups to have a robust positive impact on improving the mental and emotional wellbeing of this age group in Solihull: 1:1 Mentoring & Counselling, Wellbeing Groups and Youth Wellbeing Cafes (Relational Activity Spaces with wellbeing themes, workshops and activities). **----- Start of picture text -----**
DEEP WIDE&
**----- End of picture text -----**
All built on the foundation of our commitment to keeping young people at the centre of all we do by providing the Right Support, at the Right Time, in the Right Way & by convening and facilitating: - **1:1 Pastoral Mentoring & Counselling** which works with the depth of specific stories, strengths and difficulties of individuals. **Wellbeing Groups** which deliver psychoeducation and self-help tools and also utilise peer support to build greater resilience. ## **Youth Wellbeing Cafes (Relational Activity** - **Spaces)** which offer holistic wellbeing activities: bringing physical and spiritual elements alongside the 1:1 and group elements listed above, and which provide larger communities of Care, Connection, Confidence-building and Celebration **& Training** to assist parents/carers, school staff and others to support young people‘s mental and emotional wellbeing. **Youth Voice groups** where young people who have received the support of our programmes can be engaged to HIGHLIGHT, INFORM and SHAPE the work that we deliver and the mental health services on offer to them. 3 ## Achievements & Performance This year SHINE YOUTH has supported 231 young people aged 11-18 years through the delivery of: - weekly 1:1 Pastoral Mentoring & Counselling to young people who are experiencing a range of mental health and emotional wellbeing difficulties (standard: 12 sessions); - 3 different 6/7-session Wellbeing Group courses; - Bi-monthlyYouth Voice groups; and - a weekly Youth Wellbeing Cafe. ## 231 Beneficiaries **----- Start of picture text -----**

4 Our Impact in 2023-2024 **young people benefitted from SHINE YOUTH support 231** **young people were supported through 96 8 Wellbeing Group Courses (6-7 sessions)** **10.2 point reduction in distress** (average) **young people were equipped 72 through 6 workshops** **young people attended the weekly Youth Wellbeing Cafe** **25** **young people were supported through 12 - 24 sessions of 26 Pastoral Mentoring** **86% meaningful improvement in wellbeing** (average) **12** **young people participated in the Youth Voice Project and surveyed 300 of their peers** 5 ## 1:1 Mentoring & Counselling - ## 26 young people / 400 hours of support SHINE YOUTH delivered 400 sessions / hours of 1:1 support to 26 young people this year. Some of the many positive comments that young people gave in their feedback at the end of their mentoring or counselling support included: I put it into practise the things to do to have a good sleep routine and I’m able to sleep in one long block now (instead of falling asleep after school for 3 hours and then being awake until 2am). Things have been much better. The day I feel most positive about going to school, and when I do go, is on Friday - after we’ve talked about it at the Wellbeing Café on Thursday. We were also delighted that in their feedback at the conclusion of each student’s mentoring episode, teachers’ reported that: of the teenagers who had received Shine Youth’s 1:1 support were exhibiting: improved understanding of their feelings; improvement in managing their emotions; increased confidence; and increased resilience. Will (not his real name) was referred for SHINE YOUTH Pastoral Mentoring to help him understand and express his emotions and manage them better, particularly anger. His dad and his teachers described him as lacking empathy towards others and this was thought to be connected to the neglect he had experienced as a younger child, for which he had not received support. His dad reported that Will said he doesn’t know how he is feeling and would not talk about the past. The YP Core assessment completed in the first session recorded a ‘severe’ clinical level of emotional distress (at 27/40). It highlighted difficulties with sleep and that he had been engaging in self-harm and was often thinking about doing this. The mentoring sessions therefore explored: 1. Will’s angry feelings, which he said he kept “bottled up;” 2. The ways he self-harms; 3. The triggers at those specific times; 4. The thoughts he holds; 5. His emotions following from those thoughts,; 6. Physical symptoms experienced from the self-harm; and 7. Safe strategies as alternatives to self-harm. After 18 sessions, Will’s final YP-Core measure of emotional distress was 12 (mild) and his sleep had also improved. Will said he felt more confident and more ready to talk to express his concerns or grievances. ## **Outcomes:** 'The ‘Young Persons Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation (YP-CORE)' is used to measure the effectiveness of the Charity’s 1:1 provision. It is a robust measure of psychological distress in young people aged 11-18 years old with inbuilt measures of ‘reliable’ and ‘clinical’ change. This quantitative outcome measures demonstrated that our work achieved an average decrease of 10.10 points in the emotional distress of all the young people we worked with in the 2023-24 academic year. This equates to a significant ‘reliable change’ reduction young people’s distress reducing from the ‘Severe’ range to the ‘Moderate’ range, or from the ‘Moderate-to-Severe’ range to the ‘Mild’ range. ## Wellbeing Groups & Workshops - 168 young people The Charity’s Wellbeing Lead, Youth Worker and some volunteers have delivered 3 different group courses and 6 Workshops to a total of 168 young people which were very well received by the students who participated, the staff who watched some sessions and the parents/carers who reported the positive changes they had observed in the young people: 7 The **BREATHE** course teaches young people to understand and recognise the science, symptoms and triggers of anxiety; and to use breathing techniques, Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and a range of self-care strategies. The **CREATED** course builds young people's self-esteem by identifying signature strengths; managing comparison and self-criticism; using positive self-talk and exploring self-worth, belonging, relationships, purpose, meaning and self-care. It incorporates Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Positive Psychology and a strengths-focused resilience framework The **UPBEAT** healthy male wellbeing course uses music, video and creative group activities to help boys aged 11 - 14 years develop a healthier approach to their emotional wellbeing. It explores stereotypes of male expression and body image; different emotions; negative thinking styles; friendships; resilience and a selfcare toolkit. 8 The Warwickshire Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale (WEMWBS) clinical measure was used to monitor the impact of all the courses. This questionnaire generates a score with higher scores signifying higher levels of mental wellbeing. If a participant’s score increases by **+3** or more WEMWBS points from the beginning to the end of the course, **their mental wellbeing has “meaningfully improved”** over the duration of the course. The Outcomes for the cohorts who completed the Wellbeing Groups this year were: **BREATHE: +5** with some students finishing with a score of **+13** higher than when they began. **CREATED: +7** with some students finishing with scores of **+16 and +17** higher than when they began. **UPBEAT: +7.9** higher with some students finishing with scores of **+18 and +19** higher than when they began. The young people’s Feedback quotes conveyed their positive experience of the courses and the benefit they experienced: For BREATHE: 9 For CREATED..

Ifs ok to talk atM)ut your feelln 99 10 ## Youth Wellbeing Cafe - 25 young people National surveys and the feedback from our work with young people report a prevalent sense of isolation and a lack of meeting and activity spaces for 11 – 18-year-olds, which are both detrimental to mental health and emotional well-being. Many of the young people who receive our Pastoral Mentoring or group work in schools report that they don’t participate in activities outside of school and state that they wish the support they have received from SHINE YOUTH could continue. Moreover, the request from the young people surveyed in the Charity’s Youth Voice project was to be able to access mental health and wellbeing support in environments that feel “familiar” and “comfortable” to them (rather than unknown and clinical) and for this advice and activities to be “a part of youth clubs.” Additionally, the number of young people who are absent from school has stayed high since the Covid-19 pandemic, and we wish to have a welcoming place to support these young people, mitigate social isolation and assist their re-engagement with Education. In response to this and as a part of our strategy to offer the Right Support, in the Right Place at the Right Time, in December 2023 we launched a Youth Wellbeing Café after school to provide: - A relational space for the young people that SHINE YOUTH already engages with through its schools work to continue to be supported; - A support space for young people who are persistently absent/not attending school and/or are waiting for NHS support; - A setting where the Charity can offer a more holistic menu of well-being activities than it can in schools; and - An accessible environment for all local young people to find a community of support to improve their mental and emotional well-being, resilience and social/other skills. Since its launch, 13 – 25 young people aged 11 – 17 years have been attending the weekly session to engage in creative activities and games that facilitate relationship-building and support their mental and emotional resilience. Therapeutic Arts sessions have been delivered by Arts Therapies UK (registered charity 1051578) and Solihull Active ran a cycling session that was very popular. SHINE YOUTH has run Wellbeing Workshops linked to the NHS 5 Ways to Wellbeing based on the key themes of Connect, Create, Move, Give and Pause. We have also delivered our BREATHE and CREATED Wellbeing Group courses at the Cafe, which some regular attendees choose to participate in and other young people booked in to attend. 5 of those attending are neurodivergent (are on the Autistic Spectrum, ASD, or have AttentionDeficit-Hyperactivity-Disorder, ADHD) and don’t find peer relationships easy. Others have been experiencing loneliness due to high anxiety or not attending school. We have seen the relationships between, and the confidence of, the young people attending grow over the 8 months of attending. Several parents have told us that the Wellbeing Café is the only activity their child has engaged in outside of school and that they love coming. Children’s Services and school staff have referred young people to the Wellbeing Cafe and we have been asked by these professionals in the north of the Solihull borough to open another Wellbeing Café in that area. We plan to do this when we have sufficient funding and staff to do so. 11 WHATYOU CAN EXPECT To be listened to To feel safe and welcome A ¢alrn envlronment To enloyyourself RATE THE WEEK GLIMMERS • GY•b•whltsty••Yd • •r•w•Ywvh••bxith• lutW•4k: What gllmmer$ you ftnd from today7 They can be anythlngi Seelng a ralnbow, th• sun5hlne, flufflng a happy do8 oran aet of klndntrss that ma*•$ ytsu smll•.

It’s very chill. I can connect with friends and new people.” ## Youth Voice Groups - 12 young people The Charity’s Wellbeing Lead and Schools & Community Youth Worker also ran a Youth Voice project in a north and a south Solihull secondary school with groups of students who had received SHINE YOUTH Pastoral Mentoring or attended a Wellbeing Group course (have lived experience of mental health and emotional wellbeing difficulties). The purpose was to engage and amplify their voices to Highlight, Inform and Shape the mental health services on offer to them. They created a survey for their schools’ pupil populations to find out their ideas about the mental health and wellbeing provision they would like to be able to access; analysed its feedback; shared and sought feedback on the findings from key people in the Council and local NHS services; and presented the project and its feedback to their school Senior Leadership Teams. **----- Start of picture text -----**

13 The project also connected to the Birmingham & Solihull NHS Children & Young People’s Mental Health Transformation Programme and the students attended one of the Ideas Forums in this programme where they communicated their views and ideas to a group of practitioners and decision-makers. The students were then invited to continue to participate in the programme and be part of shaping the new mental health provision to be rolled out across the borough of Solihull in 2025 to ensure that young people’s voices are heard. 14 Representing the Voluntary, Community, Faith & Social Enterprise sector & Contributing to the development of local statutory services The Charity’s CEO has continued to represent the VCFSE sector on the Mental Health Provider Panel within the Mental Health Provider Collaborative of the Integrated Care System (new NHS structure). This role enable SHINE YOUTH to contribute to the development of better mental health and emotional wellbeing provision for children and young people in Solihull and Birmingham. 15 ## Financial Review SHINE YOUTH completed its 2023-24 financial year on 31st August 2024 with a total income for the year of £81,199 and total expenditure of £74,055. This was a surplus of income over expenditure of £7,144. The Charity ended the year with funds of £26,385: £11,536 of unrestricted money and £14,849 of restricted funds. It also had £2,995 of committed income from a signed SLA for 2024-25 to be paid by 30/09/24. The trustees would like to express their thanks to the following who gave grants to fund the Charity’s work this year: Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council, The Heart of England Community Foundation, The Trusted Executive Charitable Trust, The National Lottery and The Cooperative Bank. They would also like to express their huge appreciation to Philips Church Dorridge, Solihull Christian Fellowship, Shirley Baptist Church, Dorridge Methodist Church, Knowle Parish Church and Birmingham Vineyard Church for their donations to the Charity’s work this year, as well as The Café at Bentley Heath and all of the regular and one-off donors who have invested in the SHINE YOUTH’s mission financially this year. We absolutely couldn’t do it without you! ## Income **----- Start of picture text -----**

## Reserves Policy The Trustees have set a Reserves Policy to maintain free reserves in unrestricted funds at a level which equates to 3 months of fixed overheads (£16,410). At 31/08/24 the unrestricted funds were £11,536, which is equivalent to 2 months of Reserves Funds. However, £3,354 of the 3 months Reserves figure is the Wellbeing Lead salary and this is funded by the £14,849 of the restricted funds held. The Trustees consider that this level provides sufficient funds to allow time for responses to applications for grants to be received and to ensure that support and governance costs are covered. Importantly, 3 months of Reserve funds also provides for the service delivery to be concluded over a timescale which constitutes therapeutic rather than abrupt endings of the direct work with young people. ## Assessment of Principal Risks and Mitigating Factors The Trustees continuously manage the risk environment using a risk register which assesses risks in accordance with the size, potential impact and likelihood of occurrence. This scoring methodology is used to identify key risks which are then actively managed by the Charity at both executive and Trustee level. The major risks managed include young people’s safeguarding; levels of grant and fundraising income; risk of key employee loss; service delivery demand and response/ waiting times; and cash flow management. The Trustees are satisfied that all material risks have been clearly highlighted and are appropriately managed. 17 ## Going Concern Having reviewed the level of available funds alongside the projected cash-flow, the Trustees have confidence that the Charity has adequate resources to continue its activities for the future. As a result, the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. ## Structure, Governance & Management The organisation is led by the Board of Trustees which oversees and monitors the work of SHINE YOUTH and makes decisions on overarching issues such as vision, strategy and both the agreement and monitoring of the budget and risk register. The Board of Trustees met 7 times during this year. The post of CEO is also a Trustee in order to provide the Charity with a direct, effective and efficient link between its governance and operational functions. The CEO’s equal responsibility and decision-making power at the highest level of the running of the charity provides direct accountability, strengthens governance and guards against the potential for disconnect between the Charity’s management team and the Board. The day-to-day running of SHINE YOUTH is delegated to the CEO. Members of the Board supervise the CEO and the CEO provides supervision to the rest of the staff and volunteer team. ## Recruitment, Appointment, Induction and Training of the Board of Trustees The Board of Trustees ensures that it takes into account potential contributions to the skills mix and the balance of the Board as a whole when making new appointments. Trustees are recruited by word of mouth and by direct approach to people who possess relevant skills and support the values of the Charity. New Trustees are provided with a Trustee Handbook and inducted to the Charity and the context within which it operates. This includes: - The obligations of Trustee Board members; - The main documents which set out the operational framework for the Charity including its Governing Document; Policy Handbook; Risk Register and Archived Minutes of Trustees’ Meetings; - Resourcing and the current financial position as set out in the latest published accounts; Future plans and objectives. As part of an ongoing recognition of the need to maintain quality standards throughout the Charity there is a commitment to source and recommend training for the Trustees to develop their understanding and abilities as Trustees. All Trustees complete Safeguarding training. 18 CHARITY COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND AND WALES Independent examinerfs report on the accounts Section A Independent Examiner's Report Report to the trustees Shine Youth On accounts for the year ended 311812024 Charity no lif any) 1185452 Set out on pages 19-31 I report to the trustees on my examinats'on of the accounts of the above ¢hanty {Ihe T￿￿￿} for ￿ year ended 31108r2024.

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with: - the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 - the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) - and with the Charities Act 2011. The Charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. ## **1.2 Going Concern** Having reviewed the level of funds available, together with the future projected cashflows, the trustees have reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue its activities for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. ## **Note 2 Accounting Policies** The following accounting policies have been applied by the Charity: ## **2.1 Income** |Recognition of Income|These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
●the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
●it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources;
● the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.| |---|---| |Offsetting|There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses,
unless required orpermitted bythe FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.| |Grants and donations|Grants and donations are only included in the SOFA when the general
income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).
In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised
to the extent that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as
entitlement to the grant only occurs when the performance related
conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP).| |Legacies|Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when
there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there
are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy
are either within the control of the charityor have been met.| |Governmentgrants|The charityhas not receivedgovernmentgrants in the reporting period| |Tax reclaims on
donations and gifts|Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration
from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered
to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same
fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have
specified otherwise.| |Contractual income and
performance related
grants|This is only included in the SOFA once the charity has provided the related
goods or services or met the performance related conditions.| |---|---| |Donated goods|Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SOFA as income from
donations when receivable.| |Donated services and
facilities|Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the
value of the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured
reliably.
Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised
as income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the
appropriate headingin the SOFA.| |Support costs|The charityhas incurred expenditure on support costs.| |Volunteer help|The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is
described in the trustees’annual report.| |Income from interest,
royalties and dividends|This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount
receivable can be measured reliably.| ## **2.2 Expenditure and Liabilities** |Liability recognition|Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or
constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the
amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.| |---|---| |Governance and
support costs|Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other
support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability
of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost
categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating
property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and
other costs bytheir usage.| |Redundancy cost|The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period.| |Deferred income|No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts.| |Creditors|The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any
trade discounts| |Provisions for liabilities|A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then
subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle
the obligation at the reportingdate| |Basic financial
instruments|The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per
paragraph 10.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs
11.17 to 11.19, FRS102 SORP.| ## **2.3 Assets** |Tangible fixed assets
for use by charity|Expenditure on acquisitions of fixed assets over £1000 are capitalised at cost.
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Fixed assets are
depreciated at rates appropriate to their useful academic life. There are
currently no fixed assets.| |---|---| |Debtors|Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial
recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount
advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other
consideration expected to be received.| ## **Note 3 Analysis of Income** |**Donations**
