MIDNIGHT AND BEYOND REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Constitution

Midnight and Beyond is a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (a SCIO). It was registered in its current legal form on 26 July 2022. It has a single tier structure and as such the trustees are the members of the charity.

Appointment of trustees

The board may at any time appoint any person to be a charity trustee - by way of a resolution passed by majority vote at a board meeting. At the conclusion of the first AGM, one third (to the nearest round number) of the charity trustees shall retire from office; the question of which of them is to retire shall be determined by some random method. A charity trustee who retires from office under clause 19 or 20 at the conclusion of an AGM shall be eligible for re-appointment under clause 18 at the next board meeting. A charity trustee vacating office at the conclusion of an AGM will be deemed to have been re-elected at the board meeting which next follows unless:

(a) they advise the board that they do not wish to be re-appointed; or

(b) a resolution for the re-appointment of that charity trustee was put to the board meeting and was not carried.

Chairperson’s Report

I am proud to reflect on what has been another incredible year for Midnight and Beyond. Each year brings new challenges and new opportunities, but what remains constant is our commitment to supporting young men who face some of the most complex barriers in life. This year has shown, once again, the power of relationships, trust, consistency and meaningful opportunity.

Across 2024–25, we continued to grow, strengthen and deepen our work. We supported young men through school disengagement, mental health struggles, unemployment, court proceedings, family breakdown, homelessness, poverty and the day-to-day pressures that can overwhelm them. Through all of this, our team has been there — providing stability when things feel chaotic, and offering positive alternatives when choices feel limited.

One of our major achievements this year was securing the lease for the Gypsy Brae bike track. This has given us a permanent community base where young men can build, train, meet, exercise and take part in outdoor learning. Thanks to additional funding, we also installed a brand-new outdoor multi-gym, expanding our health, fitness and wellbeing work. These spaces have become vital in helping young men stay active, engaged and connected.

Another significant milestone was the launch of our Go Beyond gran paradiso training programme, which prepares young men to climb a 4,000m mountain in Italy that we hope to do next year. This has given them purpose, routine and a sense of achievement as they work towards something far beyond their usual reach thanks to our funders we now have our own minibus. this has completely transformed what we can offer. It has opened the door to new places, new experiences and new levels of support.

From late-night sessions, to sunrise climbs, fishing trips, Padel sessions, residentials and adventures, the minibus has allowed us to create memories, build trust and access places we could never reach before. It has also allowed us to support young men to attend vital appointments, interviews and commitments, removing barriers that used to stop them progressing.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT - continued

We have also strengthened our partnerships, especially with Craigroyston Community High School and other local services. Our school engagement group has been a lifeline for young men on reduced timetables or not engaging in education. Through regular activities, mentoring and practical support, we have helped them stay connected and rebuild routines. Our new partnership with Healthy Respect and C:Card has also been hugely positive, giving access to sexual health support, pregnancy testing, contraceptives and STI testing in a safe and trusted environment.

Throughout the year, we provided crisis support to young men and their families, including food, essentials, safe spaces and help through the justice system. We supported them into employment and help to sustain it and we continued to offer the diversionary activities and late-night mentoring that have contributed to reduced charges including over the bonfire weekend - a huge achievement for the young men involved

Looking ahead, Midnight and Beyond will continue to build on this momentum. We aim to expand our programmes, deepen our partnerships, grow our outdoor spaces, and secure long-term sustainability so we can keep supporting the young men who need us most. With the continued support of our funders, trustees, partners, community and staff, we move forward with ambition and purpose.

I want to thank everyone who has stood beside us this year — funders, partners, families, volunteers, and especially the young men themselves. Their resilience, honesty and willingness to grow is what drives us. Together, we are creating opportunities, changing lives and building brighter futures.

MIDNIGHT AND BEYOND REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Activities

Midnight and Beyond provides a range of programmes and support for local young men most at risk of or involved in offending in North Edinburgh. Many of the young men we support face significant challenges that place them at higher risk of poorer outcomes, including disengagement from education, poor mental health, unemployment and involvement in crime/anti social behaviour.

We provide guidance, support and advocacy in key areas such as employability, housing, legal matters and mental health and well being, ensuring they have the right structure and support to make lasting changes in their lives. We also deliver a wide range of diversionary activities and health and wellbeing programmes, offering safe, positive alternatives especially during high-risk times. Through late-night sessions, fitness programmes, outdoor activities, nature-based sessions and residentials, we support young men to build confidence, develop healthy routines and form positive relationships. We also provide a wider variety of activities including issue-based sessions, projects and new experiences which encourages them to discuss concerns, reflect on behaviours and identify more positive choices.

Our aim is to provide the structure, guidance and support they need to build positive futures. These sessions can contribute to a reduction in isolation, improve physical and mental health and keep young men away from situations that could lead to harm.

– Midnight and Beyond Diversionary and Support

The Midnight and Beyond programme not only focuses on building relationships and offering alternative diversionary activities until 3am in nature but also provides comprehensive support, including one-to-one, family and court support, addressing the diverse needs of young men during these crucial hours and beyond.

On Track – Employability

Based at our container at Gypsy Brae and outreach work, the “On Track” initiative is a comprehensive programme aimed at removing barriers for young men, supporting them on their journey to employment, and guiding them towards positive destinations. Through this initiative, they acquire valuable skills and access various opportunities, ensuring a pathway to personal and professional growth. They can also gain their CSCS green card which enables them to work in the construction industry.

Go Beyond – Health & Well-being

The Go Beyond programme focuses on providing young men with opportunities to explore and challenge themselves beyond their comfort zones. Through activities like hiking, nature walks, fitness and engaging in outdoor experiences, the programme aims to promote personal growth, resilience, and a sense of accomplishment. It encourages participants to “go beyond” their perceived limits, fostering a positive impact on their mental well-being and overall development.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Midnight and Beyond has been a registered charity for three years, building on over a decade of working with young people in North Edinburgh. We aim to support young men through tailored interventions and towards positive outcomes.

Through our three core strands - Midnight & Beyond, On Track and Go Beyond- we offer diversionary activities, personal development, employability support, fitness and wellbeing programmes and trusted one-to-one support.

MIDNIGHT AND BEYOND REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

This year has been a year of growth, new partnerships and major milestones. We secured the lease for our Gypsy Brae bike track, expanded our outdoor facilities by adding an outdoor gym, strengthened our community links and welcomed our minibus - an absolute game-changer that has allowed us to bring young men to new places, experiences and opportunities.

From residentials to late-night sessions, outdoor adventures, school engagement work, fitness programmes and crisis support, our team has supported young men build confidence, resilience and brighter futures.

Key achievements:

Bonfire Weekend 2024

Bonfire weekend is historically one of the highest-risk periods of the year for young people in our community, with limited safe activities available and increased opportunities for unsafe situations. In response, Midnight and Beyond deliver an intensive programme of late-night diversionary sessions, outreach, wellbeing activities and offer young men safe places to be, meaningful activities and consistent support.

This year included fitness sessions, group meals, late nights in the outdoors and exciting activities that the young men choose. During this time, we provided young people with opportunities to participate in positive activities, effectively deterring disorder. The impact was outstanding: for a second year running, there were zero charges involving young men we engage with over bonfire weekend, marking a 100% reduction compared with previous years.

The impact of our work this year was spoken about in the Scottish Parliament by Ben Macpherson in a debate celebrating the contribution of youth work in shaping positive outcomes for young people across Scotland.

With nearly a decade of experience in running bonfire sessions, our initiative not only highlights its continued necessity but also underscores its remarkable success. Our approach involves taking young people out of their immediate surroundings, immersing them in nature, engaging in exciting activities and offering support from staff. This fosters relationship-building, positive peer interaction and an overall enjoyable experience for young men. This outcome reflects the strength of our relationships with the young men, the effectiveness of our diversionary model and the trust we have built within the community. It also shows how the right support at the right time can significantly reduce risk, improve safety and create positive alternatives during challenging periods.

MIDNIGHT AND BEYOND REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Residentials

This year our residentials have offered the young men a wide range of unforgettable experiences, helping them build confidence, strengthen relationships and step away from daily pressures. This year we returned to Aviemore for multiple residential trips — a place that now feels familiar and grounding for many of the young men — and we also explored a brand new location for the first time: the breathtaking Glen Coe.

Activities included quad biking, hill walks, clay pigeon shooting, outdoor cooking, exploring waterfalls, night time zip lining and late-night wellbeing sessions. These trips gave the young men the chance to experience new environments or activities, challenge themselves and create memories that will stay with them for life.

For many, these trips offered a much-needed break from daily pressures and a chance to feel valued, supported and motivated. Residentials continue to be key to building trust, improving mental wellbeing and helping young men see beyond their current circumstances — often sparking positive changes long after they return . These experiences also helped them build confidence, strengthen relationships and take time away from the daily pressures they face.

Residentials continue to grow year by year, and this year’s success has paved the way for us to take things to the next level with even more ambitious opportunities ahead.

Gran Paradiso – Go Beyond takes on a challenge

Go Beyond is designed to push young men out of their comfort zones and help them build resilience, confidence and belief in themselves. Many of the young men who join us have never been on a hike, used a gym, travelled outside Scotland or experienced anyone investing in their potential.

This year we focused on building routines, physical fitness and mental strength in preparation for a major challenge next year - climbing a 4000m mountain on the France/Italy border. For many, it will be their first time on a plane, in the mountains, or even out of Scotland.

The young men train weekly in gym and boxing, go on walks and undertake early-morning and outdoor challenges. This programme prepares them for a major mountain expedition in France/Italy next year, giving a goal to work toward and a sense of achievement.

– Switzerland. France. Italy First 4000m Peak Experience

This exciting alpine adventure is offering young men the chance to push their boundaries, develop new skills and build lasting confidence. Over the course of the week, they will experience rock climbing, glacier hiking and summit ascents, learning key mountaineering skills while tackling real challenges in the breathtaking French and Italian Alps.

The benefits are immense: not only will they have the opportunity to gain practical outdoor skills, but will also improve physical fitness, develop teamwork, resilience and problem-solving abilities. It may inspire a healthier lifestyle and encourage a greater appreciation for the outdoors whilst providing them with the opportunity to build self-confidence, develop leadership skills and foster a strong sense of achievement.

By stepping outside their comfort zones and working together in challenging conditions, they will learn to manage risks, work together to overcome challenges, embrace personal growth and realise their full potential. It will offer a unique experience and chance to step outside their usual environment and embrace something new.

Lease @ Gypsy Brae

One of our biggest milestones this year was securing the lease for our bike track at Gypsy Brae. This has been a massive step forward for Midnight and Beyond, giving us a dedicated outdoor space where young men can come together, get active, build confidence and take ownership of something local and meaningful. Since taking on the lease, we’ve been able to:

The track has become so much more than somewhere to ride bikes — it’s a hub for engagement, learning and early intervention. Young men who weren’t engaging in school or mainstream services have shown real commitment here, turning up, helping out and being part of something positive in their own community

Minibus

We can’t thank our funders enough for allowing us to purchase our own minibus! It has truly been a gamechanger for us, allowing us to take young men on unforgettable journeys, provide vital support and open up opportunities that would have otherwise been out of reach.

Since getting the minibus, we’ve already covered an incredible 11,000 miles! Our adventures have already taken us across Scotland — from Aviemore to Cove Harbour, through Glen Coe, Stirling, Fife and Glasgow. We’ve climbed Arthur’s Seat, held late-night sessions in the Pentlands, Fife, and along the East Coast and visited places we never could have reached otherwise.

Along the way, young men have experienced a wide range of exciting activities and has enabled them to experience the benefits of nature, build friendships and seek support in a safe and engaging way. It has also allowed us to assist individuals in attending appointments and opportunities.

Without the minibus, many of our trips would have been impossible and rental costs would have restricted what we could provide. This vehicle has opened doors to nature, recreation and life experiences that would have otherwise been inaccessible! It has allowed us to remove barriers, reach more young men and give opportunities that genuinely change lives.

What the Minibus Has Allowed Us to Do

“If it wasn’t for the bus, we wouldn’t really come out or do any of this.”

“Having our own minibus is the best and means we can go anywhere we want or get out of here and see amazing places”

Midnight and Beyond was honoured to be featured in the Scottish Federation of Housing Associations’ (SFHA) publication, “Thriving Places: Housing Associations, Cooperatives and Community Investment,” and following this, we were invited to speak at the SFHA Annual Conference.

He highlighted our evidence-based approach, the importance of trusted relationships and the positive changes young people are making in their health, wellbeing and life choices. Being included in this publication and invited to speak highlights the growing recognition of our approach and the value we bring to the community.

Community Spaces and Partnerships

In partnership with young men, we identify ‘safe spaces’ where they are able to access our services at times suitable to them and also gain support from staff. We listen to them and their needs and find places in the community that we can use and are suitable.

We are sincerely thankful for everyone’s support.

Alternative School Programme

This year we launched our School Group, working closely with Craigroyston High School to support young men who are struggling with education, on reduced timetables or not attending school at all. These are young men who are often facing complex challenges at home, in the community or with mental health — and who need a different kind of environment to learn, feel safe and re-engage.

We designed a programme with the young men that gives them routine, connection and purpose, while also building confidence and life skills they are unable to get in a classroom when they are already overwhelmed. In addition to our core programme, we also provided weekly support at Spartans Alternative School, with a staff member attending one day each week to help our young men stay engaged and to offer support to Spartans staff. Outcomes include:

Quotes from our young men

Gathering feedback from our young men is a priority for us, ensuring our charity aligns with their needs. The responses exceeded our expectations, emphasising the profound significance of Midnight and Beyond in their lives.

This echoes the very reason we established the charity – recognising the impactful difference it makes and the immense value it holds for both the young individuals we serve and our team.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF MIDNIGHT AND BEYOND

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025 which are set out on pages 13 to 16.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. The charity’s trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1) (d) of the Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under Section 44(1)(c) of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner’s statement

My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeks explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.

Independent examiner’s statement

In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention

  1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:

  2. to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 44(1)(a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations, and

  3. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 9 of the 2006 Accounts Regulation

have not been met, or

  1. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
