Charity Number 802472 - 5 – Time2Talk Annual Report and Review **2021** ## **Chairperson’s Report** This year has been an extraordinary journey as we continue to provide a service within the confines of the continuing pandemic. Andy has kindly provided a very detailed Chief Operating Officer’s report, which I will not replicate here. I must take this opportunity to commend and thank Andy. His ongoing hard work and resilience in coping with the everchanging requirements have navigated us through repeated lockdowns over the last 12 months. It was not only the practical issues in providing a service which have been difficult, but the on-going uncertainty of the prospect of returning to normal has hindered future planning and organisation. As Andy has highlighted, T2T leases rooms from the council and he has had to ensure compliance within rules governing the building as well as rules governing service provision within the sector. Partnership working has been high on the agenda this year. Andy has detailed the changes this year, but in summary, the picture remains complicated by the REACH entity not being formerly ratified, requiring the continued individual commissioning with each service provider. We remain committed to working together with other members of REACH to ensure high quality, needs - driven service provision through -out the county and look forward to continuing to work with our partners over the coming months. Ultimately, as one of the smaller members of REACH we struggle to be able to be involved in all the initiatives discussed by the consortium. We do, however, remain immensely proud of the high quality counselling and interventions offered by our small team of counsellors, staff and volunteers. I want to thank them all for their hard work and dedication over the last year. Service provision has, of course, been mainly remote over the lockdowns. As Andy outlined, certain initiatives have come on board which have brought with them some welcome additional resources. Furthermore, Covid recovery funding has been very useful, although quickly eaten up by the additional rental charges for the extra rooms needed to ensure correct distancing when face to face work has occurred. Needless to say, our accommodation costs remain a burden on our resources and we await the details of any changes following the council merger with some trepidation. As always, we are disadvantaged in comparison to the other members of REACH due to our rental charges. I think the main task I must fulfil in this report is to recognise and thank the team. In addition to those mentioned above I must also thank Ashley for his hard work at completing the data submissions required as part of our contract and for his ongoing dedicated support to the running of T2T. I must also thank Gordon who continues his methodical analysis and organisation of the accounts and DNG who continue to provide an Charity Number 802472 - 6 – Time2Talk Annual Report and Review **2021** excellent service examining these accounts. Finally, my thanks also to my fellow trustees who have continued to support T2T despite their own difficulties in such an unprecedented year. We would like to recruit more trustees and I would encourage anyone interested to contact me for further information. Dr Sue Davies Chairperson Charity Number 802472 - 7 – Time2Talk Annual Report and Review **2021** ## **Chief Officers Annual Report and Review** ## **Introduction.** This year’s report is again dominated by the global pandemic. It has framed and affected everything that we’ve done and have been able to do over the last 12 months. We’ve had lockdown, lockdown easing and lockdown again and at the time of writing things are starting to feel like they are coming under some kind of control. We realise though that there can be no room for complacency here. We have followed Government guidelines to the letter and introduced measures that include social distancing, sanitising, hand washing and other protocols for delivering the service. For those working from home we’ve had to ensure that safeguarding and digital security policies are clear and robust to help keep everyone especially service users safe. Part of this has also meant working through the NHS’s digital security and protection (DSP) toolkit. This is aimed at any organisation that processes data on behalf of the NHS and is designed to ensure a minimum level of compliance for services that are funded by them. We do not own our building we lease our space from Daventry District Council which has now merged to become West Northants Council and so we have been subject to local authority rules around the use of the building. We currently have to operate an appointment only system for those coming in face to face and cannot at present access the building during the evenings although we are able to use the office on Saturday mornings for admin purposes. The adaptations we had to make to working practices stay with us. We still cannot use our counselling rooms, they are too small and unventilated, our counsellors still work mainly from home however we have returned to some face to face work where possible but this involves hiring extra space that’s big enough and involves leaving the admin space free for face to face service delivery in the afternoons. It is quite a juggling act as those coming in (staff and Service users) also have to contend with regular rapid flow testing. Fortunately, though as our core contract is an NHS one the team were able to take advantage of a Covid vaccinations programmes offered to services deemed to be key! Partnership working has remained at the forefront and whilst at times we can feel a bit cut off here in Daventry, we have maintained our membership of the Reach collaborative which involves us, Youthworks in Kettering, Service6 in Wellingborough, The Lowdown in Northampton and Chat in Oundle. We meet regularly and although the plan was for commissioners to work to a formal lead provider model or for REACH to become a legal entity that still hasn’t happened. A lot of work was done on trying to establish REACH as a single body however due to various issues that wasn’t possible. Charity Number 802472 - 8 – Time2Talk Annual Report and Review **2021** It had been agreed that Youthworks from a commissioning point of view would be lead provider and Commissioners would issue just one contract, with the other REACH partners in effect subcontracted, but again that hasn’t happened. We each continued (and will continue through the 2021-22 financial year) to have our own contract with the NHS/Public Health/Local authority. Part of the contract involves monthly data reporting and in addition data is also flowed into NHS England. Time2Talk remain responsible for flowing data into NHS England but for the year 2021-2 though all other data generated in terms of the core counselling contract will be flowed thorough Youthworks so that commissioners get a single spread sheet instead of five separate ones. Despite Coronavirus Time2Talk maintained an extremely high level of continued service with the main casualties being our walk-in drop-in provision and new projects such as Happier Families. At the time of writing this continues to be the case and is likely to be the case as we go into the new financial year. We unfortunately had to suspend our Towcester face to face service as the restrictions took hold. We continued to deliver vital emotional well beings services though to young people in South Northamptonshire and provided the team member with an iPad and phone to make that job a bit easier. There has of course been support from the office. Staff and self-employed counsellors have been able to access the office when need be to catch up and use the landline phones and collect paperwork. Jayne, our clinical counselling supervisor has done a brilliant job supporting therapists in their practice remotely. The team have all been stressed both personally and by the changes we’ve all had to make as a result of Covid. We have not been able to engage with our volunteers as much but thank them for sticking with it! I want to thank our small staff team for everything they’ve done and our self-employed counsellors too for stepping up to the plate. Over the next year there are changes to the way we have to report data and new targets are likely to be introduced that we will have to meet. There is new work coming down the line that we may get involved with it, if we have the capacity and the space to accommodate it. Thanks, to the trustees who have stayed with us, we do need more, independent and local people and will make a concerted effort as lockdown eases to offer trustee places to those that live in the community in which we work. Gordon our Treasurer stood down as a trustee last year, formally resigning at the last AGM but thankfully agreed to remain as Honorary Treasurer, a crucial role for which we are as an organisation are extremely grateful. ## **Services and funding.** We maintained our core counselling grant with a slight uplift against the previous year. Counselling services continued at full capacity via phone or Zoom. Most young people have responded well to that but with some preferring to wait for face to face work. Whilst I Charity Number 802472 - 9 – Time2Talk Annual Report and Review **2021** accessed the office daily it wasn’t possible or safe to have more than two people in at one time due to space and ventilation constraints so most therapy was conducted remotely from home. It has been invaluable for me to be in the office though as it makes coordinating our complex service a lot easier! A major boost here was the waiting list reduction initiative funding that enabled us to buy iPads and mobile phones and to upgrade the desk top office computers. This made remote working for our counsellors easier and the subsequent endless Zoom and Teams meetings that much smoother! Drop-in Services had to be suspended, along with proposed group and school based work, however we were able to provide some services such as condoms through the post and food bank vouchers over the phone. When there were periods where lock down eased we did continue with some appointment only chlamydia screens and pregnancy tests and some needle exchanges. The Rapid response initiative continued again by remote working methods until the funding was spent. At the time this was non-recurrent but I’m pleased to say that Rapid Response funds will be made available again in the late spring which we will report on next time. The Happier family’s initiative was seriously hampered by Covid and although we could provide some support and information on line and through the post, the programme proper was hampered by many issues outside our control. Earlier in 2021 Youthworks Kettering (the lead provider) advised that the programme was finally ready to deliver and we had team members lined up to deliver that project but then circumstances changed again. We hope to restart the programme in the late spring early summer. There is money ring fenced within the accounts and the amount earmarked for that reflects the issues that have been encountered. I secured some Covid recovery funding from the Northamptonshire Community foundation which proved a massive help in paying rents, service charges and additional room hire charges incurred as a result of Covid. Sadly, we still had to pay full market rents even when our building was only available to us until 2.00pm during the first stages of lockdown and office hours became limited. Although we lost a small amount of income through not being able to conduct chlamydia screening and needle exchanges, we did earn some income through some short-term work with Barnardo’s, via Youthworks in Kettering. In addition, we secured some funds to undertake a series of interview surveys with young people who self-harm, the results of which were published and have helped inform discussions around services for young people whose self-harm in the area. We were the nominated charity for The Chair of Daventry District council again and that meant we received some welcome donations that all add up and help enormously. We thank the NHS and Public Health and Local Authority bodes Charity Number 802472 - 10 – Time2Talk Annual Report and Review **2021** who jointly have supported us for another year. We thank Chris Miller for his support with funds via the former Daventry District Council Chairs charity scheme, funds which have supported our counselling service. We also secured some funds from the DDC local lotto grants scheme which helped with additional room hire costs during the year. The trustees have maintained sufficient reserves to meet our legal obligations, such as staff redundancies and lease commitments etc should the worse happen. On a more negative note we have been unable to organise any fundraising activities or events during this period such as our annual summer garden party fundraiser and awareness raising event and the regular training events held at, and supported by Fawsley Hall. With that in mind this year’s report is a little thin on photos! We hope for a time when we can return to such activities in the future. ## **A note on reserves pensions.** Our treasurer has been with us now for many years doing a sterling job free of charge Gordon has resigned as a trustee but remains as honorary treasurer for which we are very grateful. Alongside preparing our accounts he also processes our payroll and pensions and ensures that we maintain sufficient reserves to maintain the trustee’s legal obligations should we face the worse. Gordon provides regular financial updates to the trustees to ensure they are all up to speed with where we are financially. ## **Finally** I always try and keep these reports and reviews brief and have done my best this time! The year ahead is going to be fraught with greater challenges as we move towards the end of our three-year lease and have other proposed work in the pipeline that will mean greater pressure on this small service. Demand for therapeutic services will only increase. A big thanks to all who have given us encouragement over the past year, to the young people who use our services for being so brilliant, to the parents who have taken the time to say thanks and our brilliant lovely talented small team of key workers! The work they do can be, and we know is, life changing. Andy Nixon Chief Operating Officer Charity Number 802472 - 11 – Time2Talk Annual Report and Review **2021** ## **Data and Information Report** Initially, lockdown saw a decline in the number of counselling referrals we were picking up. This was largely due to the young person being removed from the source, often school, of their anxiety. However, this soon changed as lockdown went on. The length of the pandemic took its on toll on people and created new anxieties – the difficulties of remote learning, concerns over the safety of loved ones, being unable to see friends and family for long periods of time. As a result, the number of referrals we were receiving rapidly increased throughout the year cumulating in March which saw the highest number of referrals we have ever received in a single month. This trend has carried on into the new financial year and seems unlikely to be reversed. Due to COVID there has, however, been a significant drop in our sexual health services. For much of this previous year all face to face work had to be suspended and even when it was allowed restrictions and social distancing has meant running a drop-in has not been possible. This has meant that much of our sexual health services this year has been limited to information but we have been able to hand out a number of pregnancy testing kits and condoms to those who have asked for it. In this section I have included a number of graphs that will hopefully demonstrating the nature of some of our work and the demographics of our clients. **----- Start of picture text -----**

Initiolly os a volunteer. now as a self-employed sessional counsellor. I really enjoy working for rime2talk because I love working with young people.

The last year has really put a lot of strain on the service as many youn9 people have just felt exhaustively stressed and totally abandoned in one of their most important acodemic years.

Charity Number 802472 14- Time2Talk Annual Report and Review 2021 Counsellor and Towcester Service Manager Report It's been a strange and lonely year. The chan9es we have had to make at Time2Talk and in our personal lives, so that we keep our clients, families and ourselves saf e f rom this awful Pandemic Covid 19 we went into lockdown and it's going to carry on tell next year as the goalposts keep 9etting moved by the government which is not reassuring for youn9 people. We have become very busy, unfortunately this is due to the Pandemic and our waitin9 list has got longer and longer. We are sent referrals f rom the R.M.C, CAMHS, Schools, Social Workers. Doctors, School Nurses, family members refer young people but the young people can also do self-ref errals. The issues facin9 youn9 people can vary, self-harm, family problems, ex(mi pressure. anxiety, stress. gender identity, depression. domestic violence, panic attacks, health, bullying, online grooming. self-esteem. suicidal thoughts. persoml-relationships. eating disorders, bereavement or loss, sexuality, homophobia, abuse. anger. sexual assault. racism and body image. Coronavirus At the start of this year we were not able to of fer face to face counselli￿ but we were oble to of fer clients zoom or phone calls and via WhotsApp. This has supported a great deal of our clients and helped them to cope with these issues. we have also had good positive outcomes f rom these young people. Some of the young people on the waitirg list have decided they would like to wait for a counsellor for face to face counselling. Cllents Clients are given Six to eight counsellin9 sessions usually resulting in a Positive outcome. However, if the client feels they would benef it with a few more and the courtsellor feels it would help then they will be of fered a f ew more sessions with a maximum of twelve altO9ether. It's always good to see the change in their self-esteem as they set small goals for themselves that are achievable Imd help to enable them to move on in their lives. The Chantry Towcester service has had to close for large parts of the year but we have now resumed face to face counselling again. We olso continue to carry out sessions by talking to the young people via Phone, WhatsApp or Zoom.

Dr Susan Davies Charity Number 802472 -22- Time2Talk Annual Report and Review 2021 Page 4 TIME2TALK YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE CHAIRPERSON'S REPORT This year has been an extraordinary journey as we continue to provide a Servi￿ within the confines of Ihe continuing pandemic. Andy has kindly provided a very detailed Chief Operating Officerfs reFN)rt. which I will not replicate here. I must take this opportunity lo commend and thank Andy. His ongoing hard work and resilience in coping with the ever-changing requirements have navigated us through repeated lockdowns over the last 12 months. It was not only the practical issues in providing a Servi￿ which have been difficult, but the on- going uncertainly of the prospect of returning lo normal has hindered future planning and organisation. As Andy has highlighted, T2T leases rooms from the council and he has had to ensure complian within rules goveming the building as well as rules governing service provision within the sector. Partnership working has been high on the agenda this year. Andy has detailed the changes Ihis year, bul in summary, the picture remains complicated by the REACH entity not being formerly ratified, requiring the continued individual commissioning with each service provider. We remain committed to working together with other members of REACH to ensure high qLJality, needs driven service provision throughout the counly and look forward to continuing to work with our partners over the coming months. Ultimately, as one of the smaller members of REACH we struggle lo be able to be involved in all Ihe initiatives discussed by the consortium. We do, however, remain immensely proud of the high-quality counselling and interventions offered by our small team of counsellors, staff and volunteers. I want to thank them all for their hard work and dedication over the last year. Selvi￿ provision has. of course, been mainly remote over the lockdowns. As Andy outlined, certain initialives have come on board which have broughl wrth them some welcome additional resources. Furthermore. Covid recovery funding has been very useful. although quickly ealen up by the additional rental charges for the extra rooms needed lo ensure correct distancing when face to face work has occurred. Needless to say, our accommodation costs remain a burden on our reSoUr￿S and we await the details of any changes following the council merger with some trepidation. As always. we are disadvantaged in comparison lo the other members of REACH due to our rental charges. I think the main task I must fulfil in this report is to recognise and thank the team. In addition to those mentioned above I must also thank Ashley for his hard work al completing the data submissions required as part of our contract and for his ongoing dedicated support lo the running of T2T I must also thank Gordon who oontinues his methodioal analysis and organisalion of the accounls and DNG who continue to provide excellent examination of these accounts. Finally, my thanks also to my fellow Irustees who have Gonlinued lo support T2T despite their own difficulties in such an unprecedented year. We would like to recruit more trustees and I would encourage anyone interested to contact me for further information. Sue Davies Chairperson Charity Number 802472 -23- Time2Talk Annual Report and Review 2021 Page 5 TIME2TALK YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE CHIEF OPERATING OFFICERS ANNUAL REPORT Introdu¢tion Thi$ yearf$ report is again dominated by the global pandemi¢. It has framtrd and affected everything that we've done and have begn able to do over the last 12 months. We've had lockdown, lockdown easing and lockdown again 8nd at thg lime of writing things are starting lo feel like they are coming undèr some kind of control. Wè réalise though that thèrè can bè no room for complacéncy herè. Wa havè followèd Govèinmént guidèlinés to thé lèttèr and Intioducsd msasurès that includa social dist8neing, sanitising, hand washing and othèr protocols lor dèlivering the sérvicé. For thosè working from homè wa'va had to ènsurè that saf6gu8rding and digital security policies arè clear and robust to help keep everyone especially Servi￿ users safe. Part of this has also meant working through the NHS'S digital security and protection IDSPI toolkit. This is aimed at any organisation that processes data on behalf ol the NHS and is designed to ensure a minimum level of compliance lor SeNi￿S that are funded by them. We do not own our building we lease our space from Daventry District Council which has now Merged lo become West Northants Council and so we have been subject to Ictal authority rules around the use of the building. We currently have to operate an appointment only system for those coming in face lo la￿ and cannot at present access the building during the evenings although we are able to use the office on Saturday mornings for admin purposes. The adaptations we had to make to working practices stay with us. We still cannot use our counselling rooms. they are too small and unventilated. our counsellors still work mainly from horne however we have returned to some fa￿-tO-faCe work where possible but this involves hiring extra space that's big enough and involves leaving the admin space free for fa￿-tO-face Servi￿ delwery in the afternoons. It is quite a juggling act as those coming in Istaff and Service users) also h8ve to contend with regular ratjd flow testing. Fortunately. though as our core oontract is an NHS one the learr were able to take odvonl8ge of a Covid va¢¢in8tions piogrammes offered lo services deerned lo b8 keyl Partnership working has remained at the forefront and whilst al times we can feel a bil cul off here in Davenlry, we have maintained our membership of the Reach collaboratNe which involves vs, Youthworks in Kettering. Setvioe6 in Wellingborough, The Lowdown in Northarnpton 8nd Chal in Oundle. We meet regularly and a￿hoUgh the plan was for eomrnissioneis to work to a formal lead piovider rnodel or for REACH to become a legal entity that still hasn t happened. A lot of Wofk was done on trw.ng to establish REACH as a single body howevei due to various issues that wasn't possible. It had been agreed that Youthwoiks from a cotnmissitsning point of view would be lead provider and Corntllissionef5 would 155ue just one contract, with the other REACH partrTreis In effect subcontracted, but again that hasn't happened. We each continued land will continue through the 2021-22 financial yearl to have our own contract with the NHS/Public HeallhlLocal authority. Part ol the contract involves monthly data reporting and in addition data is also flowed into NHS England. Time2Talk remain responsible for flowing data into NHS England but for the year 2021-2 though all other data generated in lems of the core counselling contract will be flowed thorough Youthworks so that commissioners gel a single spread sheet instead of five separate ones. Despite Coronavirus Time2Talk maintained an extremely high level of continued serviTr with the main casuatties being our walk-in drop-in provision and new projects such as Happier Farnilies. At the time of writing this continues to be the case and is likely lo be the case as we go into the new financial year. We unfortunately had to suspend our Towcesler lace lo lace service as the ￿StriCtIonS look hold. We continued lo deliver vital emotional well beings services though to young people in South Northamptonshire and provided the team member with an iPad and phone to make that job a bit easier. There has of course been support from the office. Staff and self-employed counsellors have been able Charity Number 802472 -24- Time2Talk Annual Report and Review 2021 TIME2TALK Pagg 6 YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES CHIEF OPERATING OFFICERS ANNUAL REPORT Icontinuedl lo access the office when needs be lo catch up and use the landline phones and Collect paperwork. Jayne, our clinical counselling supervisor has done a brilliant job supporting therapists in their practice remotely. The team have all been stressed both personally and by the changes we've all had lo make as a rgsull of Covid. We have not been able to engage with our volunteers as much but thank them for sticking with ill I want to thank our small staff team for everything they've done and our self-employed counsellors loo for stepping up to the plate. Over the next year there are changes to the way we have lo report data and new largels are likely lo be introduced that we will have to meet. There is new work coming down the line that we may gel involved with, if we have the capacity and the space lo accommodate it. Thanks, to the trustees who have stayed with us, we do need more, independent and local people and will make a concerted effort as lockdown eases lo offer Iruslee pla￿$ to those that live in the communily in whi¢h we work. Gordon our Treasurer stood down as a trustee last Mar¢h, formally resigning al the last AGM bul thankfully agreed lo remain as Honorary Treasurer, a crucial role for which we are as an organisation are extremely grateful. Services and funding We maintained our core counselling grant with a slight uplift against the previous year. Counselling services continued al full capacity via phone or Zoom. Most young people have responded well lo that bul with some preferring lo wail for face-lo-face work. Whilst l accessed the office daily il wasn't possible or safe to have rnore than two people in al one time due lo space and ventilation conslrainls so most therapy was conducted remotely from home. It has been invaluable foi me to be in the Offi￿ though as it makes coordinating our complex service a lol easierl A major boost here was the waiting list reduction initiative funding that enabled us to buy iPads and mobile phones and to upgrade the desk lop office computers. This made remote working for our counsellors easier and the subsequent endless Zoom and Teams meetings that much smoolherl Drop-in Services had to be suspended, along with proposed group and school-based work, however we were able lo provide some services such as condoms through the post and food bank vouchers over the phone. When there were periods where lock down eased we did continue with some appointment only chlamydia s¢reens and pregnancy tests and some needle exchanges. Ra id res onse fundin The Rapid response initiative conts'nued again by remote working methods until the funding was spent. At the time this was non-recurrent but I'm pleased lo say that Rapid Response funds will be made available again in the late spring which we will report on next time. Ha ier Families ro ecl The Happier Families initiative was seriously hampered by Covid and although we could provide some support and information on line and through the post, the programme proper was hampered by many issues outside our control. Earfier in 2021 Youlhworks Kettering Ithe lead provider) advised that the programme was finally ready lo deliver and we had team members lined up lo deliver that project bul then ciicumslances changed again. We hope to restart the programme in the late spring early surnmer. There is money ring fenced within the accounts and the amount earmarked for that reflects the issues that have been encountered. Charity Number 802472 -25- Time2Talk Annual Report and Review 2021 TIME2TALK Page 7 YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES CHIEF OPERATING OFFICERS ANNUAL REPORT (continued) Other fundin and donations I secured some Covid recovery funding from the Northamplonshire Community foundation which proved massive help in paying rents, service charges and additional room hire charges incurred as a result of Covid. Sadly, we still had to pay full market rents even when our building was only available to us unlil at one stage until 2.00pm during the first stages of lockdown. Although we lost a small amount of income through not being able to conduct chlamydia screening and needle exchanges, we did earn some income through some short-term work with Barnardo's. via Youthworks in Kettering. In addition, we secured some funds to undertake a series ofinteNiew sutveys with young people who self-harm, the results of which were published and have helped inform discussions around services for young people who self-harm in the area. We were the nominated charily for The Chair of Daventry District council again and that meant we re￿iVed some welcome donations that all add up and help enormously. Finally l always try and keep these reports and reviews briefand have done my best this time! The year ahead is going to be fraught with greater challenges as we move towards the end of our three-year lease and have other proposed work in the pipeline thal will mean greater pressure on this small servi￿. Demand for therapeutic services will only increase. A big thanks to all who have given us encouragement over the past year, to the young people who use our seNices for being so brilliant, to the parents who have laken the time to say thanks and our brilliant lovely talented small team of key workersl The work they do can be, and we know is, life changing.
