## **Achievements and Performance**

|Summary of the main
achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.|Para 1.20|Main achievements:
The charity began this period having
secured an award from the Network for
Social Change. This award has enabled the
charity to offer and deliver workshops to
asylum seekers residing in hotels in
Oxfordshire. The charity also received a
grant to deliver a series of summer
workshops to a local charity that supports
youngsters with a parent in prison.
The charity continued its workshops for a
wide range of recipients.
Art workshops beneficiaries included:
1. Children and young people
supported by Children Heard and
Seen (A charity that supports young
people with a parent in prison)
2. Children from Be Free Young Carers
(A charity that supports young people
who care for a relative),
3. Disadvantaged children at The
Oxford Academy.
4. Parents who have a former partner in
prison for sex offences.
5. Asylum seekers.
The grant from The Network for Social
Change was specifically granted for
workshops with asylum seekers in
Oxfordshire supported by Care for Calais.
These workshops are now well established
and take place on a fortnightly basis. They|
offer asylum seekers important respite from the stresses they face every day as a result of their situation. Written and verbal evaluation from the charity’s workshops indicate that the workshops: 1. Provide an opportunity for people to engage in creative activity that they are otherwise unable to access in their lives. 2. Are extremely enjoyable and have a positive effect on the mental health of recipients. 3. Have proved to be a chance for marginalised and people in difficult and isolated circumstances to come together and offer mutual support by spending time engaging in creative activity. 4. Bring improvements in the mental wellbeing of such people. These improvements will also have a knock on effect in their everyday lives and those that they associate with, thereby benefiting society as a whole. Feedback: James Ottley, Project manager for Children Heard and Seen says of the workshops for parents whose former partners have committed sexual offences. “The group can be very emotional, and the parents are all dealing with hugely complex issues due to the nature of the other parent's offending, so it’s brilliant we are able to offer sessions like this where they can all focus on something different and enjoy a peaceful couple of hours with other parents who understand them.” And: “We often talk about very heavy topics in the group, so we are really thankful that Sarah joins us once a term to provide a therapeutic space.” Tina Wallace, volunteer for Care for Calais: “This has been and continues to be a muchenjoyed space. The focus is on creating colours, form and content, far removed from the daily drudge of forms, appeals, and bureaucracy. Participants sometimes paint pictures from home, flags of their country, or imaginary scenes, while many follow the prompt from one of the two talented art teachers who bring new ideas to every session. It is a place where people smile and shoulders relax. Over time a really large and impressive array of art work using different materials and covering multiple subjects have been
produced. Several pieces have been exhibited in the hotel for an Art Week exhibition in Oxford, and some will soon be shown at a venue in town.” Many workshop participants report that they continue with creative activity outside of the workshops as they find it a calming and therapeutic activity to engage in.
