KIDZ KLUB LEEDS ANNUAL REPORT 2025 MARKS STORY When we met Mark* he was at risk of school exclusion. He was also vulnerable to child criminal exploitation. Sometimes the challenges that our children face are unimaginable. but consistency and love make a difference every time. The team supported Mark through regular home visits. Kidz Klub sessions, I:1 mentorino, taking him away on camp and working through a programme with him during school time. Together with his parents. other local agencies and school. we came alongside Mark to support him to reach his full potential. A real turning point came during one of his1:1 sessions with his Kidz Klub leader. This little boy had a breakthrough when he realised that his name means 'leader'. As the weeks went by, he started to be a leader-he was appointed as'anti-bullyino ambassador, and then even as a play leader at school. An incredible turnaround from our startinq point with him of being close to exclusion and at risk of child criminal exploitation. Over the following months. he changed the way he carried himself and began to talk about how he could make a difference in the world- and expressed his dream to become a young leader lyr 7 and beyond) at Kidz Klub when he leaves primary school. namÈetsngtd

35,159 HOME VISITS Our reqular home vlsltlnq for1000 chlldren Is at the heart of who we are. Week In and week out, our team walks the same Streets, kno¢ks on the same doors, and builds relationships that qrow deeper over tlme. Thls consistent presence creates trust, familiarity, and a sense of belonqlng that cannot be achleved throuqh one-off enqaqement. Kldz Klub Is so much more than a club that children come to. For some of our team, thls commltment spans decades and there are streets that have been visited faithfully for 25 years, reflecting a lonq-term investment in people and pla¢e. This year alone, the team ¢arried out IS,7 2 home visits, each one a small but significant tou¢hpolnt-Ilstenlnq, en¢ouraqlnq, supportlnq. and ¢onnectlnq. These vlslts are not slmply about deliverinq a proqramme; they are about showinq up. beinq known, and beinq relied upon. One of the most encouraging signs of this lonq-term approach is seeing the cycle come full cir¢le. We are in¢reasinqly qreeted by adults who remember these vislts from their own childhood, stoppinq to share their stories and, in many cases. askinq if their own children ¢an now be part of what we offer. These moments are a powerful reminder that consistent presence over time builds lastinq relationships and creates impact that spans qenerations. Our relational approach builds trust givinq insight into the children's lives; increasinq our ability to support families and provide additional siqnpostin¢J to other servi¢es and support throuqh our Family Support Team.

We supported one family through regular home visits, getting to know Mum and the children as they accessed KK activities. Over time we became aware that domestic abuse was a historic issue. As part of our Family Support Work we were able to invite Mum to psychotherapy art therapy group which ran for 7 weeks. By taking Mum to this very safe and accessible group, she felt confident for the first time to speak about the impact of her past on her mental health. Due to the success of this. we have now seen her bravely take steps to access counselling from her GP. She is advocating for her kids needs at school and often has a list of positives to share with us when we go or updates about pro(Jress that she's proud to share with us. Often our role is coming alongside and cheerleadin(J Mum's who feel so isolated and stuck.

CHRISTMAS AND EASTER CELEBRATIONS The lead-up to Christmas was. as ever. a particularly special time at Kidz Klub. filled with joy. extraordinary generosity acr055 the city and beyond. and meaninqful connection across our communities. Throughout the season. our Klubs helped children explore the true meaning of Christmas. focusing each week on a different character from the nativity story. As part of this. each child created their own wooden nativity set to take home a lastino reminder of both the story and their involvement. At the same time, our partners, staff and volunteers worked tirelessly to brino practical support and festivejoy to families. This year. we collected and delivered over 200 hampers, more than 800 toys, and Christmas trees to families across our communities. with donations continuing right up to the f inal days. These acts of oenerosity. made possible through the support of churches. individuals. the generosity of businesses. and groups including Leeds Beckett University. had a profound impact. Time and agair). we heard children ask in disbelief."Is that really all for me?" and it was a privilege to be able to say yes. Moments of connection extended beyond families as well. At one Hub Klub. children shared a nativity performance with residents of a local care home. For one resident, who had recently experienced loss and ill health. the visit brought renewed joy and comfort an example of how these interactions created mutual blessing across generations. Over December we were able to organise theatre trips, seasonal events and nativity performances in partnership with local churches. Across the Easter period. the collective effort continued and enabled us to distribute 900 Easter eqqs, alongside a wide ranoe of experiences designed to create lasting memories. These included woodland adventures. Easter egg hunts. community celebrations and services with partner churches that brought people together.

9 WEEKLY SESSIONS FOR 150+ CHILDREN Hubs are our community-based Kidz Klub groups, rooted in the heart of the neighbourhoods we serve. This year. we have run nine aqe-specific Hub sessions across the south of the city. reaching up to180 children each week. Every session creates a space where children can belong. have f un. explore faith, and grow in confidence. A special part of each Hub has been the"World Changers Tea Party," where children have been encouraged to share their ideas. passions. and hopes for their communities and beyond. These conversations are not just talk-this year the team have actively empowered children to see themselves as communlty ¢hanqers. Throuqh our -Actlvates.- children take this further by planning and delivering their own social action and mission projects each half term. These have included initiatives such as a Valentine's bakery, where children baked biscuits, wrote messages of kindness, and shared them as acts of generosity, and community outreach in Holbeck, where children created cards with messages of encouragement and hope, then delivered them door-to-door with the team. We have continued to respond to the growino number of children with additional needs who attend our Hubs, ensuring that each child is known, valued, and supported. One child. who had only been attending school for an hour a day, was able to attend Kldz Klub when no other out-of-schtI provision could meet their needs. Through consistent care and l..1 support often from one ol our Younq Leaders- this child has experienced belonging and encouragement and continues to be a very special part of the Hub Klub. 18
Recoqnisinq the challenges many families face, we have also strenothened our provision of food. Seeinq how often children arrived hungry, we introduced more substantial snacks. includinq toast available at every session. alonoside half-termly meals. T4*-. We have also prioritised providing rich. memorable experiences. This year. we took two coach loads of children to a forest settinq for a quided, immersive "Emmaus Road- experience that we created. Through creative storytelling. hands-on attivities such as'forest bathing" while reflecting on creation, and interactive journey points. the Easter story was brought to life in a way that deeply enqaqed the children. We have seen how powerful these immersive experiences are in helping children connect. understand. and remember. We helped to njn a large scale Lantern Festival in the park in Beeston. Alongside this we have supported community qala's, festivals and have held stalls at community events. End of year Summer Parties included lawn games, food, volleyball and candyfloss. The team also hosted a community BBQ. Neighbours came out to help set up the barbecues and unexpected volunteers appeared to help with the cooking. Over 100 people were fed and enjoyed community time together. Through our Hubs, we are not only running sessions-we are buildinq community. nurturinq potential, and helping children to see that they have a part to play in brinqinq positive change where they live this is why we are working to see a Hub Klub within walking distance of all 1000 children we support.

WHAT OUR YOUNG , bc LEADERS SAY "This experlence has made me become a confident person who is willing to speak in front of multiple children and encouraqe them to play qames and have competition. I have also qained leadership skills . "Volunteerinq at kidz klub has been masslvely beneflclal to my educatlon. This is because it provlded an opportunity to qain and strenqthen social skills in a comfortable environment. For example, when I flrst started kidz klub I found it very hard to interact with the children and staff as it was a very unfamlllar environment for me personally. However, with the support and motivation from colleaques I feel I have siqnificantly Improved qualitles such as responsibility, teamwork and communlcatlon all the whlle havlnq a qood time. These are characteristics that I feel aren't necessarily focused on In school but are almost essentlal for effectiveness in the working environment which is why I believe my education wouldny be the same without it. I will include these skills on my UCAS application to assure employers and universities that l am a successful candidate." PROVIDING SUPPORT EVERY STEP OF THE WAY FROM 4-18 YEARS OF AGE 22
TRIPS OUT AND WELLBEING ACTIVITIES From outdoor residential weekends to trips to parks. Ilkley Moor, Middleton Woods. skating trip5. Skelton Granqe environmental centre. skate parks. Harewood House. and museums, children were given opportunities to explore, create. and build conf idence in new settings. A theatre trip to see the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe in January lone child spontaneously shouted out when they saw Aslan 'lt's Jesus!'.These experiences played a vital role in broadenino horizons, strengthening relationships. and supporting children's wellbeing. Yorkshire Dales - July Our first summer camp was at Marrick Priory. Outdoor Education and Residential Centre. in the Yorkshire Dales. The children had such a fun time, enjoying a range of activities including climbing. low ropes and tunnels, canoeing. archery. abseiling. leap of faith. home cooked meals. as well as a trip to get an ice cream. Around the campfire. children shared things they were proud seeing each other achieve. It was great to hear them encouraging each other. ' You were really brave, you did the challenqe even thouqh you had never abseiledbefore.. The children shared how they had enjoyed making new friends and trying new things. Throughout the year, we saw clearly just how important these opportunities were-not only in bringing joy. but in helping children feel valued. inspired. and connected. None of this would have been possible without the continued support of our wider community, and we remained deeply grateful to everyone who helped make these moments happen. 'I'm so happy., '1 want to aqain rlqht now,. 'Can I come back next week7. THIS IS THE BESTDAYEVERI" KIDZ KLUB MAKES ME FEEL INCLUDED WHEN THEY INVITE ME AND MYFAMILYON COOL TRIPS."

TRIPS OUT ENJOYING CHILDHOODS Scarborouqh Our second summer camp was at Wyedale Hall. Scarborough. The children who came had only been coming to Kidz Klub for a year. so it was a fantastic opportunity to build relationship with them and their families so that they make the transition to the Beeston Space Youth Group as they go into year 7. Our time was spent at the beach. in and out of the sea. playing football and volleyball. In the evening. toasting marshmallows and listening to stories round campf ire. having fun at a waterpark where the children were challenged to an escape room. then built rafts and embarked on an inflatable assault course. The team and children were blown away by the grounds - Wyedale Hall is an amazing place. with plenty of space for outdoor fun and includes a basketball court. large. qrassed area with football goals. an area with swings. climbing frames & other obstacles to challenge and a big secret. walled garden. For some children. it was their f irst time swimming. One boy learnt to swim. another child overcame their fear of swimming . One boy said 'Andy I'm not afrald anymore,. .1 am so qrateful that I met you when you dld thatplaystreet. If It wasny for Kidz Klub I'd never come somewhere Ilke thi& Now I'm here. I would never be able to qet here,. It was beautiful seeing the children joyf ully spend time in nature. exploring and discovering flowers or plants they had not seen before.

JOY OUT ON THE STEETS
PLAY STREETS As with last year, often these have been poiqnant as we supported families to run Play Streets in areas which had unfortunately been affected by druq and knife related incidents. It has been very special to see the children playinq and families talking to each other safely out on the very same streets. So often our work is about creating joy, colour and happiness alongside families in streets where there can be so many challenoes. "It was ace I've never seen my street so full'child We have experienced a number of challenges with heightened levels of criminal activity and gang related incidents happening in and around our activities. Sadly for some children this is the reality of life in their streets. We are looking at our support pathway for children and also talking closely with the police and council about street level activity and risk assessments. We are determined to continue our street level approach. Highlighting play nationally Catherine. was invited to be a witness as part of the government'ralslng the natlon. commission on play beinq conducted by Paul Lindley (Ella's Kitchen Founderl and Baroness Anne Lonof ield. Catherine was able to represent the children's voice about the theme of children's outdoor play and before the event asked a number of Kidz Klub parents about the barriers to outdoor play in our communities and how this could be made easier. It was good to share with them the particular challenges and very real dangers that the children face playing out in our communities. Catherine and Laura Hodgkinson (Charity Co Leaderl also travelled to take part in a discussion at the House of Lords as part of the commission and Catherine appeared on Radio 4 highlighting the joy that children experience playing out in their streets. 26

KIDZ KLUB LEEDS ANNUAL REPORT 2025 THE NEXT 5 YEARS Our model is shaped by years of experience and ref lection on what brings lastino. meaningful transformation. At its heart is a relational. community-rooted approach: interqenerational teams, staff and volunteers who live in or work from within the communities they serve. and consistent weekly home visitino for every child who attends our activities. Lookino ahead. our vision is to deepen and expand this model even further: to see a Community Pastoral Worker land corresponding Hub Klubl and a dedicated Famlly Support Worker in every community we serve, ensuring consistent, relational support for every child and familv. Alonqside this. we are committed to increasinq the Central Klub, so that more children, more often. can experience its eneroy, belongino, and impact. This is brought together through connected framework that combines both depth and breadth. At a city-wide level. our large-scale Central Kidz Klub gathers children from across all 17 Toqether. this is a model that works both communities and we carry out assemblies locally and at scale-rooted deeply in widely across Schools. While our local Hub communities while bringing children Klubs, situated within walkinq distance tooether across the city. It is a model that provide reqular spaces for f riendship, fun, enables transformation from within, pastoral care. and opportunities for children buildinq strono relationships. nurturinq to lead their own social action and mission potential, and creatinq lastinq chanqe that projects. This is underpinned by home visits is owned by the communities themselves. to every child and strengthened throuoh Family Support Work, the development of Youno Leaders. and initiatives such as Play Streets, ensurinq children and families are supported holistically. At the ¢entre of all of thls, as we so often say-ls the heart of a Father who 1$ crazy about reachlnq HIS klds. Thls Is what compels and informs everythinq we do. Our Community Pastoral Workers are key to this approach, working qeoqraphically within communities to provide a consistent and trusted presence. They connect with children throughout the week. captaining buse5 to Central Klub. leading local Hub Klubs, supporting the local team home visits, and buildino relationships with local Schools churches and community partners. Over the coming year the ongoing priority for the Trustees is working to further 'strenqthen the base, in order to effectively support our model to thrive. I REALLY ENJOY KIDZ KLUB.

ANNUAL REPORT 2025 LEARNING AND CHALLENGES AS AN ORGANISATION CHALLENGES We are committed. as a charity. to ensuring our staff are paid fairly and sustainably, alionino as a minimum with the National Living Wage and. where possible. the Real Living Waqe for our lowest paid team members. Each April. we implement a cost-of-living salary increase in line with these benchmarks. applyino the same percentage uplift across all staff to maintain fairness and equity within the team. However. these increases alongside recent changes to employer National Insurance contributions represent a siqnificant and currently unfunded rise in our annual operatino costs. We recognise the importance of meeting these commitments to our staff. and we are actively working to address this financial pressure through the strengthening and diversification of our fundraising efforts. We have faced some siqnificant staff ino qaps this year, both in frontline delivery and within our fundraising team. These challenges have come at a time when we are seeking to respond to rising need while also ensuring we are able to offer fair and competitive salaries in line with increasing cost of living pressures. Balancing these priorities has made recruitment more complex. particularly in attracting and retaining the skilled staff needed to sustain and grow our work. Despite this, we have worked hard to maintain delivery and continue supporting our communities. while actively strengtheninq our approach to recruitment and fundraising to address these gaps and build a more resilient team for the future. "I SPOKE TO X (PARENT WE'VE SUPPORTED IN CRISIS BEFORE) AND THE FIRSTTHING SHE TOLD ME TODO WAS TO CALL YOU." - COMMENT FROM A NEW LOCAL MUM LEARNING Encouraqement and opportunlty: We have seen how providing varied experiences. positive role models. and consistent support helps address what we term-poverty of opportunity." acting as a key protective factor against adverse childhood experiences and the impact of missing out. Joined-up working and clear role: Through reflection. we have focused on where we add most value. avoiding duplication by signposting to other services while maximising our relational approach. While barriers with stretched statutory services remain. building direct personal contacts le.g. social care and police) has strengthened collaboration and will continue to be a priority. strenqths-based approach: Many families are trying hard in diff icult circumstances. By recognising strengths alongside addressing challenges. and by listening and coming alongside parents. we build trust and reduce isolation. This is often what enables deeper support and referrals 30
ANNUAL REPORT 2025 LEARNING Importance of street-level work.. Being present with children and families through home vi5itinq and initiatives like Play Streets remains central. In the context of increased community challenges, being alongside children where they are continues to be a key strategic priority. Supportinq our team: With complex and high-level needs. including gang-related issues in some areas. team wellbeing is vital. Regular reflective spaces. ongoing learning. and support are crucial and this remains a key focus of the Trustees. Relational approach breakinq barriers: Trusted relationships continue to help families engaoe with wider support systems and overcome cultural and systemic barriers. One parent shared: "I wouldn't be here if It wasn't for you, for thi5 'angel' that is H.. You believed I cared for my children - I would have shut down before..... I would not be able to do what l am doinq now or be able to ask for help. had I not had the support I did from you." '.1 I'ij

The charity's reserve policy has been developed to assist in strategic planning. It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted f unds for a minimum of three and up to six month5 of operational costs within each f inancial year.
