Our strategic plan over the next year has a set of eight interrelated priorities, namely
1 Establish a Streamline method of effective cornmuniotion with membership organizations through
leveraging our digital capabilitses For example, Microsoft Conferencing through utilizing the "Owl.
technology to overcome logistical Issues This will create a two-way method of communication with
stskeholders and enable us to enhance services, provide organizational updates and ensure their
priorities are Integrated as priorities This must be completed In a quarterly basis, bringing
organizations to leverage resources, promote collalJ)ration and create conditions that best support
children and young people A key strength of charity Is the regional nature of services, but th15 Is dso
limitation due to logistical problems This will help mitigate this
2 BGC must proattively establish strategic partnerships with rnission aligned organizations across Nl,
Ireland and the UK Our staff team Is growing, and the scope of delivery Is therefore Increasing
Enhancing our network and developing partnerships wll allow us to Increase volume of delivery,
provide more holistic support for our Membership, and attrart more support This will also help with
nsk management as the charity will be submitting consortium bids for funding as opposed to singular
requests.
3 Estab115h a social enterprise elernent of the organoation by leveraging Staff expertise to generate an
Independent revenue St￿arn and unrestrieced funding
4 We will liaise with regional and local voluntary organizations for data collettion to Inform service
delivery and ensure that our youth work activities and services are evolving responsively
5 Membership development Is a huge pnority for Boys & Girls Clubs moving forward Our membership was
depleted due to several factors In the past i e, dosure of smaller centers We have appointed a MemlErship
Development Officer to re-build our membership and this has happened expeditiously
6 To fvrther develop OL4r membership, we must "return to our roots" and re-establish a youth programme
for membership clubs For example, re-lntroduce the regional and national boxing competitions that Pr￿ide
