We have a fantastic team, provide more services and interact with more young people that we have done before. Our aim is to continue to increase the services we provide to more young people in 2024. James King Chair of Trustees This year from 1 st November 2022, we have seen F4YP go from strength to strength, although not without its challenges. We have had some great successes with multi-year funding, enabling us to focus on other sustainable and community fundraising, however with the cost of living crisis, this has both impacted our service delivery costs, as well as increased the need for our service. You will see from our report the diverse backgrounds and needs of the young people and families we have supported over the past year, and how with their input we have adapted our service to meet these needs. We have expanded our family support, offering group workshops and further wrap around pastoral support by increasing our staff team, as well as having a targeted focus on YP with SEND. l am hugely thankful for our dedicated staff team, volunteers, and Trustees, whose ongoing hard work and support is vital to our work. Their sUPPOrt has ensured our service is young people led, that our holistic approach to supporting the wellbeing of young people and their families is at the forefront of what we do, and delivering a service that promotes our values where young people can grow and thrive. We are truly grateful to those who have supported us this past year and we are very proud of what we have achieved. I hope you enjoy reading about our work, the challenges and successes.

We have celebrated our launch as an independent charity and worked hard to both continue and improve existing services. We started the year by hosting a celebration evening, inviting supporters, funders and other community groups to join us for a FUN-Raiser event at 3 St Peters in Bedford. The evening was a chance to showcase our work within our community. and thank those who had supported us through a challenging but successful first year. Additionally we launched our FUN-Raiser initiative, highlighting different ways our community can support the F4YP projects. Having been awarded a 3 year grant from the National Lottery Reaching Communities fund in mid October 2022, this allowed us to continue our work at the scale we had been previously, as well as giving us some stability to focus on the ever changing needs of our service users. With the cost of living crisis affecting our families, as well as our delivery costs, we were keen to ensure our service was as efficient as it could be. Over the year we have delivered 39 after school courses for multiple age groups, totalling approximately 333 hours of face-to-face delivery. Activitie5 included Multi-Activity, Tumbles, Mus1C. Swimming, Dance, Sport, Canoe and Adventure, and Parkour. We were able to extend our canoe courses to offer an overnight camp to 22 young people. We also offered 30 days of holiday club provision across 7 weeks of the school holidays totalling 195 hours of face-to-face delivery. Whilst after school sessions are subject focused, our holiday clubs are multi-activity. This period included onsite activities such as.. 1.1 reading, dance, drama, music, DT, sport, STEM, cooking, art and water activities. We also went on trips to Silverstone, Box End Aqua Park, Mead Open Farm and Millennium Park Forest Centre. These days included: 3 day course in February Half Term 4 day and 3 day courses in the Easter Holidays 2 weeks of multi-activity at Daubeney Academy and 1 week at Wootton Lower 4 FUN-Raiser Days 1 week of outdoor adventure days Within our holiday club provision this year, 720 hours were spent supporting 1..1 reading, of which 750h is covered by volunteers. These sessions were provided for all young people in school years 1-8 and contributed to our aim of supporting young people who may have fallen behind due to the pandemic, supporting self-belief in literacy, and improving their confidence to encourage better attainment. One of our reading volunteers said of the reading programme: "Every child was focused on and was made to feel like they were a priority. Volunteering with F4YP gave me a better understanding of the situations people of Bedfordshire come from and I now feel more open minded towards my community and want to make allowances to provide for those needs. l am hoping to go on to work with children, 50 this was an invaluable experience for me." !ONEsfi RESPEC'f FUN DREAM BIG HONEsfi RESPECT FUN DREAM BIG HONESTY RESPECI FUN DREAM BI( Fun 4Young People Annual Report & Accounts FY 01111122-31110123 05 In this period, we provided 5296 hours of pastoral support, 119 hours of 1-2-1 therapeutic support for service users struggling with their mental health was provided to 16 young people and 3 parentslcarers of young people with SEND. We continue to attend professionals, meetings for relevant young people, offering support to families and schools where appropriate. We have seen an increase in referrals to Integrated Front Door this year with many young people facing difficulties and challenges that require escalation to children's services. As part of this we have offered 1.1 visits at schools and have been in contact with schools to ensure support is consistent across environments. This has been particularly key for the young people who attend with SEND. As a service we have found an increased demand for a family approach to support recognising both young people and parentlcarer benefit with joined-up support. We have therefore run a coffee morning throughout this year, this is an ongoing project which we hope to develop, providing a drop in space for our parentslcarers to visit without their young people present, and have a relaxed conversation with our professional team. In March 2023 we held our first parentlcarer forum alongside our afterschool provision to enable parentslcarers to attend. The parentslcarers filled in our standardised survey as well as discussing what they find helpful from F4YP and what we could do in the future. A key part of their feedback was for parent mental health first aid and how to support their young people with their mental health. We have implemented some of this within out new parent/carer workshop and are in the process of creating some workshop videos, led by our therapist, which will be available for all to view online. We also ran a Young Peoples forum at a local café. It was great to gain their feedback on what they thought is going well, what we could improve and what they would like to do in the future. Some of their feedback was to include more locations in the afterschool clubs we offer, which we are in the process of doing as we move into new venues such as Kings Oak and look to move to new parts of Bedford such as the Goldington ward. We have worked alongside many local businesses this year including Marcello's who provided meals as part of the Holiday Activities & Food IHAF) provision, M&DH who kindly lent us a van to help with our holiday club set ups, the Bake Café in Kempston where we host our coffee mornings to name a few. We endeavour to make our charity known to schools and businesses across Bedford including displaying leaflets and inviting them to our fundraising events such as our launch night and our Charity Ball. Many of these businesses have donated raffle prizes to our fundraising events to show their support of the work we do. During this year we have been working with an external evaluation consultant RaQkn2L￿ looking at the impact F4YP has, where vve could improve and strengthen our impact, and mapping our current data collection methods, their validity and any gaps in our data. Rachel has been interviewing our tutors and pastoral team, speaking to young people, parents and carers, and surveying schools and other agencies we work with to assess the impact of our service, and identify if there are any unmet needs. !ONE5TY RE5PECI FUN DREAM BI6 HQNE5TY RE5PECI FUN DREAM Blfj MUThIE51Y Kt5Vtii FUN UKEAM UIC.

Fun 4 Young People Annual Report & Accounts Pl 01111122-31110123 09 FACE TO FACE DELIVERY F4YP currently operates its face-to-face provision across 7 Bedfordshire venues throughout the year Ihaving originated in Kempstonl. Due to need and demand and after some changes in venue availability, we spent some time researching and planning how to expand our delivery reach to best support our service user needs. Delivery sites are chosen based on location regarding where our referral schools/agency and young people live, as well as appropriate usage for activity. Not wanting transport and access to be a barrier to those attending, F4YP offers transport to some locations that are not within reasonable walking distance and where a parent/carer is unable to provide transport- e.g., pick up from a Kempston school site to Trinity Arts & Leisure for Multi-sport using our dedicated minibus. After school clubs are run for up to 30 weeks of an academic year during term time. Each term, these are open to a new cohort of young people to sign up to however we have many who will continue with their chosen acLivity throughout the year. Approximately 70% ofyoung people will access throughout the whole year, with 30% accessing one term only. After school activities have a main focus e.g., multl-sports, in which a variety of team sports and games will be on offer each week. These are led by our sessional tutors, who plan sessions to both support our outcomes as well as support age-appropriate development and skills in line with the national curriculum. Holiday clubs offer a variety of activities. Young people rotate through timetables of activitie5, With some sessions being chosen by them. Activities such as cooking, design & technology, art, and music give the opportunity to develop their creativity, confidence and practical skills. Up to 150 young people can be on site during holiday clubs, and up 10 3 ti metables can be ru n alongside each other to cater for different ages. During holiday clubs, we can incorporate activity that su pports the development of literacy and numeracy. Offering daily 1-1 reading sessions {programme developed by English teacher Jill Creighton), gives young people up to 2.5 hours of 1-1 support per week. This time also gives young people 1..1 time with an adult developing positive relationships. Young people participating in performing arts subjects- drama, dance and music, are encouraged to participate in an end of week performance to their peers. We encourage them all to be involved where possible, with some that don t like performing taking part in setl prop creation, or supporting staging, encouraging, teamwork, self-conf1dence, and peer relationships. Timetables can be flexible, we often incorporate time into them, so that our young people have the opportunity to run their own session during the summer holidays. In the past our young people have chosen to put on their own disco, including fancy dress, karaoke and 'just dance,. We use summer holiday clubs to develop our young people into mentoring. Those in year 9+ are given the opportunity to volunteer for a week with the younger age group, as group leaders, both supporting tutor sessions and being able to run elements of sessions themselves. Many will ask to do this year on year, with some then returning as volunteers and even being offered paid assistant roles within F4YP.

We responded by partnering with a local Child and Young Persons Therapist, Sophie Ibbott and piloting our early intepdention 1-2-1 therapeutic support funded by the local Rotary Club in February 2020. This has continued to be a vital part of our service, the need far support resulting from the pandemic has increased exponentially, with N HS waiting lists being up to 18 months. Whole families, mental health is being affected, and often young people have not had the support to be able to cope with their mental health. With continuation and novated funding from Bedford Rotary Club, we have supported 16 young people this fi nancial year, delivering over 119 hours leach young person receives a minimum of 12 x l-hour sessions). Additionally we have supported 3 parents/carers of young people with SEN D. Dependant on individual need, some young people will need to revisit therapy at different stages throughout their Lime with our service. This is something we are able to do with Sophie without having to put in a new referral each time. CHILD SUPPORT With the increased need this year has brought, we have developed our wrap around support. Our pastoral team create individual sUPPOrt plans for our young people, liaising with families, schools and other agencies supporting the family, to ensure the support we are providing is consistent and to identify any gaps in support. Where appropriate, the team will attend regular professional's meetings for the young person, and in some cases host'Team around the famill meetings. Additionally, our pastoral team provide year-round sUPPOrt to young people and their families lapprox. 20 hours per weekl. This can include.. taking young people to and from 1-1 therapy sessions with our internal therapist, school visits working on individual support plans supporting families with registering, or signposting to other agencies, charities, voluntary groups, .supporting parentslcarers with additional needs IM N, ESOL, Disability) with phone calls, benefits guidance or general support to discuss their famills needs. F4YP has strong relationships with schools, which in turn leads to more referrals for our service. The pastoral team build these relationships by attending school meetings/ parents, evenings/ coffee mornings, with parents, as well as going in to deliver assemblies to the young people about our acLivities. Additionally, schools will send information out via leaflet, parent mail and on social media about our activities, as well as core school staff- family support workers/ safeguarding leads- directly contacting and referring the harder to reach families to the service. • New referrals can include a school visit before attending sessions where an individual Pastoral Support Plan is completed for the young person. Pastoral staff will contact school and other agencies supporting the young person and their family, to gain as much information around them as possible to ensure consistent and appropriate support is in place.

K& NES Fun 4 Young People Annual Report & Accounts FY 01111122-31110123 11 FAMILY SUPPORT We have seen an increased need in addilional support for the wider family network, whether this is supporting them to grow their communily, signposting to other seNices or through multi-agency meetings. Our pastoral team spend much of their time liaising with parents and carer5, and we have continued to offer our parentlcarer coffee morning drop in session, extending this to weekly during term times. The families we 5UPPOrt come to us for advice on a range of issues and we always do our best to listen and adapt to meet the need5 of their young people. Sophie delivered some 1-1 sessions to parents of young people accessing her support, to help improve their knowledge around best 5UPPOrting their child and giving them valuable skills to support her work with them at home. DLJe to the success of these sessions, and wanting to SUPPOrt more parents and carers we have developed two toolkit programmes for parents/ carers to access. The online self guided 6 week workshop covers common issues raised by young people- e.g. separation anxiety, low self esteem, bullying. They can acces5 this weekly and follow up with pastoral staff on any queries they have. This is open to all of our parents/ carers as well as parents/ carers whose young people may not access F4YP. With the support of Bedford Giving we have developed and delivered a more in depth 10 week small group face to face course, for parents/ carers with young people that have more challenging behavioursl high need. Being able to offer this support to our families means our young people are being supported more with their own needs at home, with hope to improving family harmony and wellbeing. This has been well received and we are continuing this across the next fina ncial year. "My son is absolutely loving it at F4YP. He's done a variety of activities: he's been trying new things and maklng new friends. He's autistic so that affects the social side of things. but he's made friends here and is enjoying being with other children. The interaction has been great for him. He's even told his big brother about the new friend he's made. He is very confident this week- he is coming home really happy and bubbly and relaxed in the evenings. F4YP has been a real success for us because my son is very comfortable here. We have tried clubs elsewhere but didn't even make it through the first day."

We work with many other agencies on multi-agency meetings, and are building Stronger relationships to be able to signpost our young people for additional support as well a5 parents/ carers that may need other sepdice involvement. To strengthen this further we hope to look at developing partnership face to face work with other agencies, delivering workshops to both young people, parentsl carers. We regularly consult with our schools and specialist agency partners across Bedfordshire for feedback and suggestions for our programmes, to be able to acutely address the needs of the children and young people they work with. We listen and respond by adapting our services and implementing new things. For example, we implemented onsite wellbeing rooms with a sen50ry pod and equipment, providing a calm and safe space to be utilised when children and young people need it. Many of our Service users would struggle to attend other activities where this additional support is not available, a5 their actions are often mis-interpreted as bad behaviour rather than looking deeper into what may be causing it. "Fun 4 Young People is an extraordinary organisation that gives disadvantaged children the opportunity to access extra-curricula r activities that ordinarily they would not be able to afford. The staff who run F4YP are relatable, approachable, helpful, friendly and kind. They go above and beyond to help support the children and their families and as a school we are verygrateful to them."

Through their passion and commitment for our work and their range of skills and experiences working with our young people across many levels of the organisation, we have built on and played to their strengths, along with our local tutors and volunteers to make F4YP what it is today. Adding to this, we strive to invest in our older young people who may have been with us for several years and build on their strengths by providing progression pathways within our organisation. This includes volunteering opportunities, training and professional development leading to paid work with us as Activities Assistants, mirroring the starting points of our senior management team. Our CEO, Sophie Stock, began herjourney with F4YP under the leadership of the Founder Ann Hadfield, initially as a contractor supporting our youth activities. Sophie then supported our merger with IH&S from a data transfer perspective overseeing the digitisation of our monitoring and wider operations. Having progressed through various roles during her time including Activities Coordinator, Pastoral Support Lead and Youth Services Lead, Sophie has a sound grasp of all roles within the organisation. Over the years, Sophie has built solid relationships with staff, supporters, young people and their families, especially those who have had sibling groups come through our programmes. She has supported our young people with family and relationship issues, confidence and wellbeing, and even collegeluniversity applications. Sophie has been the instigator and driver of a number of our initiatives including our sensory room and 1-2-1 early intervention therapeutic support. Sophie consulted with many of our young people personally to co-design our services as we moved forward to independence. Our Head of Operations, Sarah Collins, has been with F4YP since 2015. Sarah has a background in teaching as well as supporting care leavers. Sarah also has a solid understanding of the various roles and responsibilities involved across all our work having progressed from Activities Assistant, Pastoral Support Assistant and Deputy Youth Services Lead. Due to the demand of our service, towards the end of this year we have been able to extend our staff team to now include another part time Pastoral Support Assistants and an Outreach worker, in addition to our CEO, Head of Operations, Youth Worker and Admin Assistant. Our admin assistant has also had an increase in hours to include Family Liaison. Additionally this year has seen an increase number of our young people come back and work for us after leaving school. Cameron, joined the team as a swimming instructor and we have had many other as course assistants both after school and during school holidays. It has been a successful year for volunteering with F4YP, welcoming back long time volunteers after the apprehension following the pandemic as well as beginning the journey with new faces. We have also had some of our young people volunteer as part of their Duke of Edinburgh awards and school work experience. Specifically, over this period: We have benefited from 581.5 HOURS OF VOLUNTEERING the equivalent to 77.5 working days; Volunteers have supported our 1-1 READING PROGRAMME, as well as our face to face delivery and fundraising. We would like to extend huge thanks to all ourvolunteers, their loyalty, ongoing hard work and commitment is invaluable. They make our F4YP community stronger and add to its successes.

We are pleased to have built several new relationships with grant-makers as well and hope these will continue to grow over the coming years. Community fundraising Community fundraising is a vital source of income for the charity. We are planning to increase donations from several distinct revenue streams, such as third-party events, regular giving and legacies. Following our celebration launch in November 2022 we held a charity ball in November 2023 which was a great success, and we hope to continue this each year. We have also explored other fundraising avenues such as sporting events like Swim Serpentine and Ride London. Other Donations We are delighted to have continued relationships with local businesses like M&DH Insurance, who have make both financial donations as well as volunteered time and resources to support our delivery. We continue to develop relationships with other local supporters to strengthen this funding stream. From our launch evening, we built relationships with Mazars and St James's Place, and have been fortunate to receive funding from their charitable arms. Other non monetary support Our schools are not only informing the work we're delivering, but they are also helping to drive it via their community fundraising activities, our Development Lead was a previous volunteer on our summer holiday clubs. We receive support from a number of local voluntary groups such as Bedford Lions, FACES and Kings Arms Project, who over the past few years have supported us with Christmas appeals. emergency food parcels and gifts for our families. Our trustees are pulling on their local networks to help deliver fundraising and events and everyone is inspired to join and support the F4YP community. Our work is additionally supported by Kempston and Bedford MP Mohammed Yasin as well as various local ward Councillors.

NATALIE CHOSE TO DO HER WORK EXPERIENCE WEEKAT F4YP AND WROTE DOWN HER JOURNEY. When me and my family moved to the UK in 2017. me and my brother didn't know much English and it was a bit difficult to start conversation and make new friends. In 2019 we moved again, here to Bedford (Kempston) and me and my brother were a bit more confident with the language and my Mum wanted to get us to go to a club, specifically a sports one. Then she found out about F4YP and me and my brother were very excited. She said she wanted us to carry on having physical activities during the week and to make us more confident with other kids our age in a new place. Me and him really enjoyed it,. it was fun and everyone was very welcoming. 74J The best thing about F4YP is the amount of inclusivity and there is all types of activities to do for all ages. For me, F4YP makes my day better and going to their clubs is the highlight of my week. I have made tons of friends and grew in confidence along the way. I tried a lot of new things like rock climbing and canoeingl I feel excited and happy to come to clubs because l enjoy them. I feel more confident to be around a lot of people and to be able to talk to everyone. I learnt how to play different sports and got better at the ones I played already. I love F4YP because we get to do all my favourite sports like badminton, rounders, and most importantly dodgeball, They did impact my mental health in a good way as I had people to turn to when I didn't have someone to talk to in the beginning. i enjoy being with and talking to all the staff members. they are very understanding and friendly. Overall, I'd be sad if I couldn't go to their clubs.

Coming to F4YP clubs enabled her to navigate and learn her social and emotional skills in a structured fun atmosphere. The leaders have become adults that she looks fonvard to seeing weekly. They took time getting to know her and have become trusted adults in her life." Parentlcarer of YP with SEND THE CHILDREN ALWAYS COME OUT SMILING. HAPPY. AND ASKING TO GO AGAIN. Their confidence has built over the weeks and they are always learning new skills. The team are highly professional. approachable and supportive. We are very grateful for the services offered by them during such an emotionally challenging time. Parent/Carer of YP I RECOMMEND IT TO EVERYONE ALL THE TIME! As I'm home educated I was very nervous to start but due to a warm welcome from the team I have continued to attend F4YP clubs for a few years. Being home educated I don't get many chances to make friends from a similar age however coming to F4YP I have built many friendships. I've found coming to F4YP good for my personal growth as l am autistic, being able to work with people in the same situation as well as understand those in a different situation. It has now become apart of my routine and I don't like the days clubs aren't on. I recommend it to everyone all the time!

The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland IFRS 102) {effective 1 January 20191.

The major sources are grantfunding arefrom the National Lottery, Harpur Trust, Compass Wellbeing Cost of Living Fund, Bedford Giving, Gorfield Weston ond Moz(7rs Charitable Trust. Bedford Borough Council a150 providefunding in order to provide the HAFprogramme. Our budgetfor theyear increased due to the cost of living crisis with rises in utility, rent and delivery costs. We spent this year returning to ourfull capacity deliveryfollowing uyear based on a reduced, skeleton structure due to our transition to independence. See the Strategic Reportforfurther details offunders. Reserves policy The charity aims to hold unrestricted reserves which are sufficient and will normally exceed three month's estimated operating costs for the organisation as a whole during the following 12 months. The trustees have reviewed the level of reserves needed by the charity and agreed that: as a frontline service delivery organisation, many of our core salaries and overheads may be covered within our restricted income and that levels of unrestricted reserves may be lower. However, it has been agreed that the charity will look to secure and maintain increased levels of unrestricted reserves. Currently all salaries are covered by grant funding, and hence will be paid out of restricted funds for the foreseeable future. should reserves fall below the stated level, the trustees and the Chief Executive will endeavour to raise additional unrestricted funds as a matter of urgency or take steps to reduce operating costs. Going Concern The trustees recognise, like with all cha rities there is an uncertai nty to grant fu nding, but th is has been addressed by continuing to use a dedicated fundraiser to support this, and the trustees have an expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Key financial performance indicators Monthly management accounts and KPI reports have been established. A baseline budget has been prepared for the 2023-2024 FY and performance against this will be reported each month. The Trustees will review the fi nancial position quarterly.
