OBJECTIVES AND ACTIvrrIES
Objectives and aims
Damask Community Outreach was forn]ed in July 201 I to work primarily in the community of East Lisburn.
The mission statement of Damask Community Outreach is "Dedicated to providing safe, inclusive and
challenging opportunities that are changing lives and building futures in our community." The key purpose
and services provided by Damask were established in response to an audit carried out in the community. The
public benefit delivered by Dam&sk provides support for older people. parents and carers and young people
through a range of activities and programmes, together with advice services and support to those
experiencing health problems, loneliness, unemploymenL age related problems, povety and financial
difficulties.
Damask Community Outreach is a Christian faith-based organisation, working in partnership with Seymour
Street Methodist Church, but is open to all and committed to equality of opportunity for all people,
regardless of religious belief, political opinion, race, age, marital status, sexual orientation, gender, disability
or dependency. Damask is committed to building partnerships in the cornmunity, with statutory agencies and
with other relevant groups and organisations to ensure that it can offer a wide rang¢ of services that match
the needs of the community and help with the personal development of individuals.
Ensuring the work delivers the aims of the company
The aims, objectives and activities are reviewed throughout the year at Damask Board Management meetings
held monthly, looking at what has been achieved and the outcomes of the work. The effect of each key
programme and service and the benefits they have brought to the community and the groups are reviewed
systematically. This process helps ensure that aims, objectives. programmes and services remain f￿uSed on
the stated purposes. The Board refers to the guidance contained in the Charity Cornmission's general
guidance on public benefit when reviewing its aims and objectives, and in planning its programmes and
services.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIvrfIES
Overview of activities
The Advi¢¢ Service continued to operate throughout the year, and when our Adviser took maternity leave at
the end of December we were able to appoint a new temporary Adviser, Maya Lazarenko, to ¢over her
period of leave. Counselling support has continued to be provided by Ricky Keag.
The youth programme tn collaboration with Youth Initiatives, and partly funded by Children in Need,
continued to run in that way until the end of December 2022. However it was becoming more difficult to
combine the nature of the work YI wished to cary out with direction that DamasL with Seymour Street
Methodist Church, wanted to see and so the Memorandum of Understanding was brought to close mutually.
Damask is grateful to YI for the valuable work that Ryan Lilley and other leaders have led over the 1&8t five
years or so. From January 2023 Dam&sk appointed Rebecca Wills to lead the continuing Dam&sk youth
programme and to work with The Seymour Street Youth Pastor, Ashleigh O'sullivan, in planning and
running this programm¢.
The Damask Wellbeing Programme which was initiated during the time of COVID has developed into a
continuing Tuesday Morning programme with a well-attended pilates class, followed by a social time with
tea and coffee. During the year a small group also enjoyed indoor bowls and walks, craft groups and other
activities were organised from time to time.
The Toddler group continued its weekly meeting and with the decline in COVID restrictions the requirement
for advance booking was dropped. The monthly Tea Dances which were fomierly run have not resumed.
Fund raising through regular Car Boot Sales carried on throughout the year. Although they could not be held
every month they still made an important contribution to Damask's funds. Damask with help frorn Seymour
Street Methodist Church continues to gather food donations for the Lisbum Food Bank. We do not currently
have any 'B¢friending' taking place.
Volunteers
Volunteers continue to provide a vital backbone to our activities The Damask Board. which is made up of
voluntary members continued to provide management and administration via online meetings, and the time
spent on administration remained high due to additional funding applicattons and the need to keep altering
and re-developing our activities. In most months we have held a car boot sale which depends on voluntary
suppoIL as does the Toddlers. The Wellbeing group has voluntary leadership as does the Advice Service,
and the youth programme depends on young volunteers who have come up through the group.

ORJECTNES AIYD ACTIv￿[Es
Paid Stsff and Session Workers
At the end of March 2023 Darnask had two contracted staff, Maya Lazarenko, Temporary Adviser working
20 hours per week and Febbie Francis, Adviser (on maternity leave). Rebecca Wills, the sessional youth
worker, works 6 hours per week on the Fusion Project (After-school Club). Session work¢r5 are employed
where necessary to deliver specific programmes such as Pilates, the Wellbeing programme. craft activities,
and youth outreach.
Grant applications and donations
The Dam&sk programme over 2022123 h&s been supported by a range of funding bodies and we are grateful
to these bodies for their grants. These include Lisburn and Castlereagh City Council, The Education
Authority, Children in Need, Lisburn and Castlereagh Policing and Cornmunity Safety Partnership and
Youth Initiatives. In February 2023 we were awarded a grant from the Victoria Homes Trust which will be
used to support the Fusion Project (after school club) in 2023124, continuing from Children in Need. We
have received donations from Seymour Street Methodist Church as well as private individuals. The
Wellbeing programme is fully funded through weekly donations from those attending and the toddlers group
is funded through a small weekly subscriptions by those attending.
Objectives for 2022123
The main objectives for 2022123 were to develop the Advice Service particularly with regard to supporting
victims of dornestic violence a5 we received PCSP funding for this aspect of th¢ work and to build on the
successful Wellbeing Programme. We aimed to secure new funding to provide continuing support to the
after-school club at the concluslons of the Children in Need funding.
In additional the Damask Board aimed to maintain the 2022123 balance sheet in credit as had been achieved
in the previous three years.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMAIYCE
Programmes and Activities
The Damask Response to the needs of Community during 22123
Advice Service
Febbie Francis was able to deal with the calls coming in to the advice service effectively and the new
arrangement of having Friday moming sessions in the Lisburn Food Bank worked well. However some
health issues meant there were periods when the service could not operate. Once we became aware that a
period of maternity leave would be required we again had no success finding a qualified Adviser. However
Maya Lazarenko, a refugee from Ukraine, applied and was offered the post from January 2023 following a
pertod of online training and work experience in November and December 2022. This appointment opened
the door for Dam&sk to offer support to Ukrainian re￿geeS in the Lisburn area in additional to our usual
ocal clientele, which we felt was a very much in line with the aims of Damask Cornmunity Outreach.
We continued to receive PCSP fimding to enable us to support clients who are victims of Domestic
Violence. Due to our change of staff and periods of closure, we were not able to develop the domestic
violence aspects of the work as hoped. However we intend to remain focussed on this issue which is still
widespread in the community. We did, however, refer a number of clients with domestic violence issue to
Ricky Keag for counselling.
Youth Programme
The main prograrnme during 2022123 w&8 the Children in Need 'Go' project with up to 50 young teens
attending after school on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. This was under the management of Ryan Lilley
from YI. but led by Rebecca Wills. Early in 2022 it became apparent that the detached youth work with
older teens at weekends was no longer finding groups of young people on the streets in Lisburn and the focus
with older teens moved to working within Forthill College providing informal counselling during lunch and
break times.
An evening ￿0Up for older girls was established but a boys group did not attract support.
From January Damask took over management of the youth programme from YI with Rebecca Wills
Continuing as Leader of the after-school prograrnme, now called Fusion, and Rebecca Ringland ran the group
for older girls. The Fusion programme is now becoming more integrated with the work of Seymour Street
Methodist Church and has the assistance of Ashleigh O'sullivart, the Youth Pastor.
With the support of the PCSP grant several weeks of summer Holiday Clubs were run.
Toddlers Group
With the decline in concern over COVID the Toddlers group was able to operate without a requirement for
pre-registration. There is a team of about six voluntary leaders and the group is largely self-funding through
a small weekty subscription.
Community Wellbeing Projects
Walks for Wellbeing:_ From Easter 2022 to the summer. fortnightly Walks for Wellbeing were organised,
but there were decl ining numbers. This programme did not restart after the summer.

Community Wellbeing :_
The popular Pilates class had sessions running from April to June 22, September to December 22 and
January to March 23 with a regular attendance of 14 to 20. Weekty donations from those attending more
than covered the costs of running this programme and the coffee time aftenvards. While the Pilates group
was predominately women, a small group of men enjoyed the short mat bowls in the main hall. The overall
programme has become a well-supported and valued addition to the Damask activities bringing together a
wide mix of people from the local community and church and has the potential to be further developed with
a wider range of day-time activities.
Damask Board and other aspects of Damask
The Damask Board continued to meet approximately monthly, mostly but not entirely online via Zoom
throughout 2022123.
The Car Boot sales continued to be an important fundraising, and community activity of Damask generally
raising £700 to £800 per sale, including £125 to £150 from refreshments. In the absence of an altemative the
stage in the main hall is the main area where donated items are stored. Most donations are coming from
Church members and their support in this way is appreciated. After each sale a significant amount of unsold
material is disposed of at thc dump.
Damask has continued to support the Lisburn Food Bank by gathering food donations from Church
members and others and p&ssing them on.
Future Plans
With the Youth Programme now being managed directly by Damask our aim, particularly with the younger
teens, is to have a more regular Christian input into the programme and to develop opportunities for church
young people to be involved ￿ members or youth leaders. However we do want to rnaintain the link with
Forthill College and identify and support for older young people who might other wise drop out of education
and also to continue the evening group of older girls.
As we expect opportunities for grant funding to become more difficult tn Northern Ireland we will need to
look at new potential sources of funding particularly for the Advice/Counselling work. While Maya
Lazarenko will finish when Febbie Francis returns to work the possibility of Darnask working with Maya to
provide additional support to the local refugee population could b¢ a new area of work for Damask if
appropriate funding could be found.
Appreciation
The Dam&sk Board wish to place on record our deep appreciation and thanks to all our Volunteers who give
of their time so freely) to the staff providing the Damask Advice and Counselling, the Community a¢tivities
and leading the youth programme and to those who give donations regularly and generously to support the
work of Dam&sk Community Outreach.
At this stage Damask would also like to thank Ryan Lilley who was employed by Youth Initiatives to lead
the Darnask youth prograrnme over the last four/five years. Over much of this time there was a strong
element of detached youth outreach in Lisbum and YIIDamask were providing a stabilising influence at a
time when the PSNI were finding it difficult to keep tabs on the groups of young people in Lisburn. Ryan
provided well organised and prepared leadetship and maintained the required applications, paperwork and
reports to satisfy our fund¢r5. Darnask also appreciates the commitment from the CEO and Board of YI to
support this work with Dam&sk with staff and finance.
