Trustees’ Annual Report for the period

From 01 Oct 2024 Period start date To 30 Sep 2025 Period end date

Charity name: Framlingham Area Youth Action Partnership (FAYAP)

Charity registration number: 1200241

Objectives and Activities

	SORP reference
Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document	Para 1.17	To support young people of high-school age in the Framlingham area by providing leisure-time activities that help them develop their physical, mental, social, moral and spiritual capacities, enabling them to grow into mature individuals and responsible citizens.
Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts.	Para 1.17 and 1.19	In the past year, FAYAP has run and hosted a wide range of activities for young people, including our after-school drop-in club, iCreate, the Amplifier Project, Art Club, Drama Group, and the Skate Park Pavilion drop-in on the Pageant Field in Framlingham, alongside a variety of one-off events. We also rent our facilities to other community groups, helping to support wider local initiatives. Our work is strengthened by the ongoing support of the local police and the town council. A key aim of FAYAP is to benefit the wider community by reducing anti-social behaviour that can arise when young people have nowhere to go and nothing to do. By providing safe, structured and engaging activities, we offer positive alternatives that help young people feel connected, supported and involved.
Statement confirming whether the trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit	Para 1.18	The trustees confirm that they have had due regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit when carrying out their duties and in planning the charity’s activities throughout the year.

Achievements and Performance

	SORP reference
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	FAYAP (Framlingham Area Youth Action Partnership) has continued to provide a safe, supportive and engaging environment for young people from Framlingham and the surrounding area. Our trained youth workers have delivered sessions across multiple locations in the town, offering informal, educational and relationship-based youth work that supports young people’s personal, social and educational development. Through this work, young people are encouraged to explore their values and ideas, develop their voice and influence within the community, and build practical skills that help them realise their full potential. Over the past year, FAYAP has successfully run and hosted a wide range of activities, including the after-school drop-in club, iCreate, the Amplifier Project, Art Club, Drama Group and the Skate Park Pavilion drop-in on the Pageant Field. We have also delivered a variety of additional events designed to engage and inspire young people. Alongside our own programmes, we have supported the wider community by renting our facilities to other local groups. Our communication channels remain active and well maintained, including our website (www.fayap.co.uk)and our Facebook and Instagram pages, ensuring that young people, families and the wider community stay informed and connected. Throughout the year, FAYAP’s committee has met on a bi-monthly basis, providing strong governance and ensuring that we continue to operate as a dedicated, well-run charitable organisation delivering high-quality youth services for the Framlingham area.

Financial Review

Financial Review
Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period	Para 1.21	At the end of the financial period, FAYAP remains in a stable financial position, with sufficient reserves to continue delivering core youth services to the Framlingham community. Income and expenditure have been managed carefully throughout the year, with spending aligned to planned activities and project commitments. While restricted funds have been fully utilised in line with funder requirements, unrestricted reserves continue to provide essential flexibility to support operational costs and respond to emerging needs. The trustees monitor the charity’s finances closely and are satisfied that FAYAP remains financially sustainable, with appropriate controls and oversight in place to ensure the continued delivery of high-quality youth provision.
Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held	Para 1.22	The trustees hold reserves equivalent to three months of operating costs to ensure FAYAP can continue delivering core youth services during unexpected financial pressures such as delays in income or unforeseen expenditure. This level provides a prudent buffer to meet ongoing commitments, maintain stability and support future planning. The trustees review the reserves regularly to ensure they remain appropriate for the charity’s size, risk profile and operational needs.
Amount of reserves held	Para 1.22	At the end of the financial period, the charity held£16,000in reserves, which is equivalent to approximatelythree months of operating costsand in line with the trustees’agreed reserves policy.
Reasons for holding zero reserves	Para 1.22	N/A
Details of fund materially in deficit	Para 1.24	N/A
Explanation of any uncertainties about the charity continuing as a going concern	Para 1.23	The trustees consider FAYAP to be a going concern, with staffing, finances and attendance remaining stable and posing no immediate risk to service delivery. The main uncertainty relates to the declining number of trustees willing to take on governance responsibilities. Despite extensive advertising in local media, on social platforms and through face-to-face engagement, recruitment efforts have not yet secured the number of trustees needed for long-term organisational resilience. Trustee recruitment therefore remains the key governance priority.q
