God’s love is the motivation of all we do; this is our foundational
value. If we only had one value it would just be love; this is primary.
We believe that God’s love is also just! “
"God always takes his stand unconditionally and
passionately… against the lofty and on behalf of the lowly;
against those who enjoy right and privilege and on behalf of
those who are denied and deprived of it.” (Barth)
LOVE is an encouragement to and from all who are with and
alongside us in Christian community, to walk in Unity and Love.
Believing in Difference
MADE4U believes in Kingdom Values; and
in this, the way God has us operate in
faith is often different to how the world
would have us operate. Change happens
by working ‘with’ people and ‘for’ people;
while we want to work alongside people,
often we are called to advocate for those
who don’t have a voice. True change in
our area will happen when we encourage
people to take ownership; of the project,
their lives and their community. This way,
we will encourage and champion change
in our community.
Hope
Our bottom line is that we believe that
there is hope for all regardless of their
oppression; mental health, physical
poverty, or isolation. This is hope which
spans both community and individuals.
We will identify potential in all we work
with, and in the community we are placed
in, searching out hope where it is
sometimes hidden. We will recognise and
build on assets in our community and in
those we work with, and also identify
needs and help people address them.
Refuge
MADE4U is aiming to be a beacon of
Refuge and Safety. A core part of
becoming this in people’s lives is
listening to stories and acting, and
encouraging and equipping people to
act for themselves. We aim to offer
opportunities to those who most need
them. We support people who engage
with us to the best of our ability, but
know we are not called to do everything
ourselves, but to signpost people into
support structures and alongside others
who are also towers of refuge and who
can offer what is needed.
Acceptance
MADE4U believes in respecting and
celebrating everyone’s uniqueness and
will welcome all to its activities and
programmes. We believe that everyone
has a right to be valued, and a
responsibility to value others, we know
that people have a unique voice that will
resound in harmony with others around
it. Ultimately, it is our calling to accept
all; because we have, first, been
accepted by God.

INTRODUCTION
FROM THE BOARD
Over the 12 months ended 31st March 2022, Clare McCormack, our Project Manager,
and our gifted team of staff and volunteers, grew and further developed our work
within the greater Wishaw area, building upon the measures we had taken in
response to the first year of Covid lockdown, isolation and severe restrictions. The
continued increase in our spending and funding received reflected our
opportunities to make a difference in light of the challenges faced by many of
different ages during this time.
There were new activities and development of our management team as we seek to
build back better. Our main focus over the long term is on young people, young
adults and children, and on positive mental health and wellbeing; and seeking the
funding and people in place to sustain and develop this. Thanks to the generosity of
trusts, individuals and other partners, our finances are now healthier and our
capacity increased.
In the following pages, there are reports, stories and photos of people, new groups,
partnerships and activities. We hope that you also are encouraged as you read this
report of the activities and finances of MADE4UINML2 over the 12 months ended 31st
March 2022.
Many thanks to Rev. Mhorag Macdonald, Eleanor Hailey and Aideen O’Sullivan, who
retired from the Board after years of committed service. Since April 2022, Dom
Nolan and John Ross Brown with experience in business and the voluntary sector
have joined the Board and we continue to seek fresh gifted people with a big heart
to join the Board or to be part of a working group. I am grateful to my fellow trustees
for all that they bring and share - but most of all to Clare, the staff team and
volunteers for their amazing skills, resilience, imagination, gifts and hard work.
Plenty challenges will continue for us and for many people of all ages in ML2 over
the coming year but I am confident that MADE4UINML2 is yet stronger and better
placed to make a difference. Thank you for your support.

I n c o m e A n a l y s i s
Over 2021-22, we have been
privileged to partner with many
more funders than in our 16-year
history as an established
organisation.
As we reflect on this, we must be
thankful to the community for
putting their trust in us to deliver
community work with and
alongside them.
We have seen an overall rise in our income, moving from £209,713 in 2020-
21 to £239,534 in 2021-22. This has been contrary to trends in the Third
Sector, which has seen increased competition for grants and trusts, and
many smaller trusts closing down or suspending programmes. While our
success has been good news overall, it is important that we are aware of
wider trends and difficulties within the sector.
In the diagram below, we can see that we are still reliant on grants and
trusts, with 66% of our income from this source. This include funders like
North Lanarkshire Council for discretionary and community grants, and a
variety of funders providing monies for employment of apprentice roles
(Kickstart, Community Job Scotland, and Young Person's Guarantee). This
66% also includes project funding for our range of projects delivered in the
community.
Donations are our next highest
source of income, with a number
of individuals providing
donations, variously for core
costs, staffing, and towards
projects. Although our donations
are up from £37,952 last year, to
£47,507 this year, it must be
noted that this is largely because
of a reclaim of Gift Aid on one
major donors gifts over the last
number of years, totaling £12,361.

We have seen a drop off in smaller donations between 100-1000 this year,
and we suspect this may be because in the previous year we had tapped
into a collective need to assist, as the full force of lockdowns hit.
Alongside the drop in memberships/subscriptions, this is something we aim
to address, and bring ourselves into line with the current climate.

As we have grown and adapted to our new vision
and strategy as an organisation, it has been a
planned move to increase our expenditure.
We note that in the previous year (20/21),
responding to the initial covid Crisis, while
income grew by 72%, expenditure grew by 72%.
This year (21/22), however, income grew by 14%,
compared to expenditure which grew by 25%.
This was a measured response alongside our
increased dialogue and favour with funders as
well as larger programmes and community
responses. It should be said, though, that we
should keep tabs on this in future years,
ensuring that our expenditure doesn't outstrip
income.
This expenditure has largely been used moving to have two of our three planned
development workers (kids & youth) and increasing hours as well as taking advantage of
apprenticeship funding and employing the staff in this capacity. Other programmes like
Club 365 relaunched and required sessional workers as we grew our youth programme
and started to require additional workers here too.
1 0 2 K
It can be seen from the following pie chart, that
staffing costs account for £154,225 of our
outgoings, which accounts for 76% of our
operating costs. 7% of our income is then spent
on our office costs, with children's, youth and
wellbeing spending accounting for only about 10-
11% of our expenditure. This is to be expected as
the core foundation of our work is relational and
take people to respond to community need, as
well as community aspiration. Whether it is having
a safe building to operate from, or training and
welcoming volunteers, the staff presence is key.

It must also be noted that as we grow bigger, we have also had to spend further funds on
raising monies, finance functions etc. This is expected to increase as we have reached a
point where further assistance is likely necessary to continue to bring in and report on
the range of funds we receive. This in itself is quite an undertaking.

Over the 2021-22 period, MADE4U has been
able to build on some of the successes of
community response during the initial
pandemic year. We have seen restrictions
ease to consistently allow holiday hunger
clubs, youth groups and adult groups.
This enables us to develop activities, build
successful partnerships with local schools
and pilot new work. We are excited to
showcase some of this work and highlight
the achievements of staff, volunteers and
valued community members.
We have also been able to invest some time
in redecorating the centre, so we hope
everyone we work with has enjoyed the
fresh lick of paint and improved facilities.
Our team continues to grow from our position at the beginning of the
previous year's report. In January 2020 we had three part-time staff,
and in this year of reporting, we had an average of 13 members of staff.
This includes sessional workers and the average accounts for more
workers at peak times such as summer and Christmas. Despite these
higher numbers, we also saw some turnover, with Matthew and Allana
(Wellbeing) moving on to pastures new.
This allowed us to reshape the
direction of our wellbeing work and
seek funding for a full-time
development post in this area. This
funding was awarded in March 2022 for
the coming year and we are looking
forward to investing more time and
resource in this area.
In response to increased demand for
our work, we were able to increase the
hours of our Project Manager, Youth
Development Worker and offer the role
of Children's Development Worker on a
full-time basis also.

One of the major changes to organisation's impact, has
been the access to apprenticeship schemes. During
this year, we took advantage of the final year of the
long-running Community Job Scotland scheme, ending
31 March 2022, which we had participated in for the
past 10+ years. We were also able to utilise the
Kickstart Scheme, through DWP to place several young
people in posts. Later in this reporting year, we
accessed the newly created Young Person's Guarantee
Scheme, offering further support for those struggling
to get into employment.
Of course, not all these posts are long-term, but we are
pleased to have supported several young people into
sustainable employment or further education, through
the development of skills and confidence.
Through these schemes, we were able to bolster our local work with schools, with
young people in the community and in responding to community needs; offering a
number of support roles in kids', youth and community work and providing training in
these areas.
Volunteering, during the initial days of the pandemic, became a lifeline for many,
including organisations like ourselves. Nationwide, however, organisations have
struggled to maintain this interest and momentum in investing in the community. We
are so thankful for each and every community member who gives their time selflessly
to help children, young people and the wider community. This has amounted to
thousands of volunteer hours over this period. We raise a massive thanks to all of our
volunteers for their tremendous impact and effort in making the ML2 postcode area
one of the best places to live.
We are privileged to be awarded grants allowing us to invest in this area, aiming to
make volunteering more accessible for all, including groups like those in poverty and
those from minority groups, who are overall less likely to volunteer. These grants are
the Essentia Foundation, Community, Capacity and Resilience Fund, and the
Volunteering Support Fund, all of which aim to address various areas of volunteering,
such as under-utilised groups, retaining volunteers, involving young people, and using
volunteering to address issues arising from poverty and welfare reform.
During this reporting year, we launched our Young Volunteer group, which we will
showcase further on, and welcomed new volunteers across our programmes. This is a
key area of investment we want to place emphasis on over the coming years.

Over the period of 2021-2022 our children’s work
department has grown in a variety of areas,
continuing previous groups and also introducing
new groups, with the support of new funding.
Last year our partnerships with local primary
schools expanded and we are now working with 3
local primary schools within the areas of Pather,
and Netherton. As you take a read through, our
programmes and sessions have made a
significant impact on children’s mental health,
learning and development, as the pandemic
made an impact on children. We have seen
children grow, gain confidence through awards
and express their creativity through communitybased
projects.
As every year we are always so proud and inspired to see children
participate positively in the many crazy and fun activities we do, by also
supporting each other and sharing community spirit. Especially when we
see children overcome fears and difficulties they may be facing.
F L A S H C L U B
The FLASH Club has continued to run with the
support of the CVS Flexible Fund, as well as
apprentice workers, placement students and
volunteers. The Flash Club has given children the
opportunity to grow and develop, and given them
something to get involved in after school. Children
have explored a range of activities that encouraged
them to jump into something new such as STEM,
active play, food craft, arts and crafts and educational
activities around Getting to Know what’s in our
community, recycling, autumn and christmas themed
and most importantly a space where children can
meet new friends and build confidence. We also
created a sensory area where children with additional
support needs that got overwhelmed could come destress
from the rest of the group.

Our club is all about promoting and encouraging healthy eating and
healthy life choices, therefore each week children were provided with a
healthy snack of fruit, yogurts, toast and juice. It’s been great to see that
we had on average between 15-20 children from diverse primary schools
and areas of Wishaw attend each week.

Club 365 continues to be a core programme throughout the summer and school
holidays. In 2021-22, we delivered 75 days of holiday provision, in partnership with
North Lanarkshire Council, allowing 1600+ children to receive a free hot meal. This
has been a huge help for families who at this time, were still struggling against the
impacts of lockdowns and isolation.
This club is a safe place for children to de-stress and have somewhere where they
can feel comfortable talking and building conversation with other children; growing
their confidence and social skills. Due to the Covid pandemic, all children were in
lockdown and isolated, with school often closed, and otherwise unable to attend any
of their clubs outwith school, meaning that they were not routinely interacting with
their friends and peers, leading to social isolation and anxiety.
After so many months, this was the first time children were able to interact with their
friends again outside of school and get to take part in a holiday programme as the
restrictions eased. This was a great way to encourage children to build that
‘normality’ back up and attend something that they always enjoy.
H i 5 A W A R D S
We had 31 children at Club 365 that took on the
challenge of completing their Hi5 awards during
their time with us, they embarked on setting
goals to develop skills, confidence and most
importantly to have fun. The children set goals
for different activities in which they wanted to
explore and develop in and find new ways of
working and lifelong learning skills.
The Hi5 award is an exciting opportunity for
children 5+ that recognises the hard work,
participation that the children gain through
holidays, clubs and groups. This was a great
opportunity for children to achieve an award by
the end of the club as they were getting involved
in so many different activities that would support
and help their development. The children’s
challenges included arts and crafts, cooking,
baking and sports.

MADE4U’s Active Play Programme was launched in
October of 2021, we had the aim to work in partnership
with many local primary schools to offer active
physical activities through the children’s lunch time.
Our Active Play programme was delivered by our
children’s work team within the playgrounds within
each school. We approached St Thomas’ Primary
School first, as they were very keen to get involved,
and soon it was piloted on a weekly basis.
Between 30-40 children engaged in team building
activities, games such as capture the cone, active rock
paper scissors, ship shore, plus many more. Children
also have the opportunity to play their own games
through child led games such as tig, golden river etc.
Through these active play sessions children build
confidence, social skills, communication and listening
skills, explore new games and ways of learning within
the playground, which can be transferred when in the
classroom. Due to the success in St Thomas’, we then
started offering active play sessions on a weekly basis
in Netherton Primary School in February of 2022 and
hope to continue offering this programme to many
more.
“Thank you very much
for your sessions the
past few months, the
kids have loved them!”

MADE4U’s new Dynamic Youth Award and Play
Champion programme launched in October 2021, we
piloted this in St Thomas’ where we worked with two P6
classes 36 children in total. We introduced a 10-week
programme where children had the opportunity to
choose a challenge of their own that could be
something new such as a sport of their choice, cooking
or arts. Children also got involved in leadership
exercises, what makes a good and bad leader, the
importance of communication and listening skills when
leading and working as a team. Children got involved in
risk assessing their playgrounds before play, and were
supported in creating their own games to present to the
rest of their peers. This was very successful, therefore
we then started our programme in Netherton Primary
and worked with 16 children to gain their award.

This year has been exciting for our youth
work provision. We have been able to give a
stronger direction and choice to young
people. There are a lot of improvements to
the groups, more on offer, with so many
more opportunities, especially in youth
volunteering. We have had young people
leading activities from football to running a
tuck shop in the Youth Drop-in.
Another great aspect is that young people
have had an impact and choice in how some
of these groups run, with activity ideas
coming straight from the young people. As
well as helping out in applying for funding
for these groups to run. It is amazing to see
ownership in some of these groups driven
by the passions of the young people and
young volunteers.
The groups on offer themselves have increased with a wider choice of what
is on for the young people in Wishaw, including brand new groups like the
upcoming Music Project right up to Lunch Groups in local schools.
Y O U T H D R O P I N
In 2021, a Friday night youth drop-in was launched at the MADE4U centre
for the first time in many years. As with most youth work provisions,
numbers started low and with the young people we had existing contact
with. Throughout this reporting year, numbers have grown, allowing us to
do more with the group. We frequently facilitate discussions on hardhitting
topics like mental health, smoking, bullying, and other topics young
people raise. We aim to be a friendly support and offer a safe space as an
alternative to the streets.
Young people who are keen to develop are directed to other supportive
provisions like becoming a volunteer or coming along to the Thursday
Volunteer and chat group. We are often asked to diffuse interpersonal
difficulties between young people and support them through difficulties
with school, family and friendships.
Young people self-direct this group, suggesting development, programme
ideas and topics for the future. We have seen the group grow from 3 to
sometimes having 30 inside.

Between September and the end of this reporting year, we hosted a group of Coltness
High School students struggling with returning to school and mental health following
the pandemic disruption.
The young people who attended shared that they enjoyed these sessions and
coming to the centre. For instance, continuing the learning of life skills as they were
doing in January. They worked to understand bank accounts, how to cook, and how
tools are used. To put this last bit in practice, the group got to take apart and
reassemble a plug, identifying live, earth and neutral.
“When I’m older, I won’t need to pay someone, can do it (wiring a
plug) myself without blowing me or my place up”
The group helped out in the centre, serving teas and coffees, chatting to adults who
attend wellbeing groups and even helped disconnected the water-dispensing boiler
(safely). We used this to demonstrate a similar process of replacing a washing
machine, giving them skills and confidence for the future, including teamwork and
communication skills.
The young people were eager to learn and felt confident enough to request specific
session plans or issues to work on. They also felt comfortable sharing their personal
stories and discussing topics like bullying, eating disorders and mental health
affecting each of them. At the end of each session, young people fill out a journal to
document the journey in their own words.
O U T R E A C H W O R K
Throughout the year, we have engaged in several
different types of outreach work - this is work where we
actively aim to engage with young people who wouldn't
otherwise come to a traditional activity held in our
centre in Cambusnethan, or engaging through schools.
Some examples of this are our partnership work with Socialtrack and engaging with
groups of young people at the Wishawhill Pumptrack. This is often groups of up to
60 young people, their younger siblings and family members. The core activity here
is biking, scootering and skateboarding activities, with MADE4U providing
additional youth work engagement, healthy foods, and onsite activities. As well as
having a go on bikes of course!
Another example of the types of youth outreach we engage in is detached
streetwork, which we piloted in Gowkthrapple at the end of 2021 and into this year.
This work allows us to engage with new groups of young people, and open up
discussion around lifestyle, drugs, alcohol and mental health.
F O O T B A L L S E S S I O N S
One of MADE4U's longest-running pieces of work is our football provision, based at
Cambusnethan Primary pitches. Our core coaches, Dougie and Ross, have been
steadfast and meeting with the young people in the local area for the past ten years.
During the early days of the pandemic, our football sessions were impacted by the
cancellation of community lets. This was inevitable, but as things opened back up,
we knew football was one of the things we needed to relaunch.
As we did this in May 2021, we took the opportunity to revamp the provision, and
included youth workers in the plan alongside coaches, giving more opportunity for
support of the young people coming along, discussions about mental health, life
goals, school, and difficulties they were facing.
This has allowed us to have a more controlled space with greater relational
dynamics. We have two young volunteers who regularly come along to help at this,
alongside some others who attend and support from time-to-time. They have the
chance to lead discussions, run drills and more.
One of our key goals, when we relaunched last year, was to support more girls to play
football, and we took the step to ensure that each week there were female leaders
running drills and sessions. We are pleased to see that the number of young girls
being supported to develop their skills has greatly increased.
"Starting with MADE4U

One of the most exciting developments in the youth
work department in this reporting year has been the
volunteering group and general development of
volunteering with young people 11-21. This has
mainly taken the form of a youth volunteer club on a
Thursday, running from 430-6pm.
Most weeks we have anywhere up to 15 young people join the group, learning
everything from how to market an idea, making posters, communicating with
local businesses and developing ideas for fundraisers and activities. The group
have not only learned a lot themselves, gaining confidence, teamwork and
communication skills, as well as practical skills like cooking, budgeting, etc; but
they have also been a great use around the centre.
The young people have been keen to volunteer supporting kids' groups, like Club
365, giving extra support to children doing crafts and cooking, and have been
supporting MADE4U's community events like the Pumpkin Light Trail and
Christmas activities
B I G C O O K L I T T L E C O O K
Cooking is an essential life skill that many do not possess in our communities, the
lack of which increases poverty and health issues. This project was inspired to
provide the opportunity for families and children to build confidence and skills in
cooking. The nature of this project was to bring children and parents together to
cook together, make low-budget healthy meals, and decrease reliance on unhealthy
foods, snacking and takeaways.
The aim was to bring new recipes every week, teaching the
families how to wash, prepare, chop, and season, as well as other
new techniques. For instance, we would introduce a variety of
chopping techniques and use varied methods throughout the
course, including boiling, frying, stewing, etc. Everything was
targeted at the children, with the parents encouraged to get
involved, learn new skills and support the children.
These sessions had a positive impact on those families who had
the lowest levels of cooking skills, initially. The families all agreed
that they had gained a basic understanding and knowledge of
cooking and how to do this well, and on a low budget. This comes
with the additional positivity of the new skills being beneficial to
their health; an alternative to living off ready meals and pots of
noodles.
From a survey that was taken after the sessions, most of those that were in
attendance are keen to prepare home-cooked meals for their families and want to
use fresh ingredients. They also wanted to eat more healthily throughout the week
by incorporating the recommended five-a-day and vegetables into their meals.
"We learned a lot from
coming along, added
onto what I already knew
and it’s great to get the
kids to join in and take
over while learning. I
always try to teach them
things at home and this
has built on what I’ve
taught them."
“My son really enjoys
coming, he loves to cook
and always gets involved.
He’s enjoyed all the dishes
we’ve made, however, his
favourite was the sweet and
sour chicken pasta dish (if
he had to choose). I’ve really
enjoyed coming along as
well, and think I’ve learned
something new from coming
along as well so it’s been
great. We’ve loved it!”
“It’s been really
fun, we’ve learned
a lot from coming
along. I usually do
some of the
cooking at home
and now I know
more."
We know that going into this year, with a current cost-of-living crisis, that essential skills like
cooking and budgeting will be ever more important. While this short pilot was funded by
Warburtons, we hope that we will be able to reintroduce sessions like Big Cook Little Cook
with an enhanced remit. This may include topics like: shopping for a family, budgeting,
cooking techniques, portioning, and more. This would be part of our wider remit for tackling
poverty; food poverty in particular.

We started working with Elias, 13, and his family, including two younger siblings, in 2020, to
provide extra support. This support continued throughout the current reporting year. We'd like
to give a snapshot of the all-round support we offer families struggling with their circumstances
in our community.
The first time we visited their home, it showed how some people in our community are living. We
were delivering emergency parcels on a Saturday during lockdown on the request of the council.
The area is a hidden area, off behind some industrial units, in one of Scotland's most statistically
deprived areas.
Locally, the area has a reputation for housing people who use drugs and sex workers and is used
as temporary council housing for the most vulnerable people in our communities. The flats have
no security and many smashed windows, and the area has become a dumping ground. We saw
evidence of rough sleepers (sleeping bags and covers, used food containers) and drug
paraphernalia, including discarded needles. We couldn't help but want to support the family,
who were clearly living in complicated circumstances with a young family.
During one visit, we worked with Elias' mum on a
benefits application, assisting with filling out the
complex forms to access support to which the
family are entitled. MADE4U offered translation
support as well as advice on how the system
works. When needed, we were also able to
advocate for the family with the benefits agency
when the application went missing.
Later, we helped with residency and driving
licence applications; also ensuring the family got
support with school meals and clothing. We
provided the family with a wardrobe for their
clothes, utilising a fund for helping families, and
Christmas presents as the alternative may have
been that there were none for the children.
One of our main concerns was that Elias was not attending school. Many issues factor into this;
bullying, the pandemic and lack of information. Elias' mum was concerned about him going to
school, saying that there was a lack of support and that it was difficult to get there as the school
was over 3-miles away. She also needed an advocate to speak with teachers about the bullying,
seeking reassurance that something would be done, which we were happy to help with.
We have worked consistently to link in with the primary and secondary schools, offering
homework support, links with the teachers and more. One of the ways that we feel really made a
difference was in securing Elias a laptop of his own for school work as well as unlimited WiFi,
through the Connecting Scotland programme. We also engaged with the younger kids' schools,
where we offered tablet devices and on-site support. We even got invited back to run
playground sessions for the kids' whole class, to improve connection and integration.
We understand that there are complex issues for families who live in areas of deprivation. This
family are not alone in dealing with access issues, coming up against lack of provision,
communication and confusion over forms and processes. MADE4U, in this situation, and many
others, has looked to get the root of some of the surface issues, come up with solutions and
bridge gaps between authorities and the families themselves. We aim to support where we can
and make life easier when the challenges may feel overwhelming.

As with last year, operating in 2021-22 presented great challenges due to
covid. We were still in lockdown throughout the first part of the year,
schools were often closed, and Christmas was cancelled once again.
Although we can lament about the difficulties caused to us, for example, the
number of times we had to "fog" the centre each time we suspected
someone may have had covid and visited us, it should never be
underestimated how much the local community was impacted.
During this time, we witnessed: families go through times of great trial;
individuals lose their jobs; people experience financial difficulty and fear;
wife lose their husbands and vice versa; children experience loneliness and
isolation, and many people trudge through mental health issues because of
all of this.
It was a great privilege for all of us at MADE4U to rally together, come to
work, and come to volunteer to try and ease some of the burden that those
living in the ML2 postcode were experiencing. While many organisations
remained closed until May 2022, months after the period of this report, we
made it our aim to open up the doors and do that with open arms and open
hearts.
As a result, we experience another extraordinary year, feeding people,
spending time talking and listening, and distributing laptops, connectivity
devices, food parcels, meals, school bags, Christmas presents and adult
hampers. Looking back, the list seems almost endless. The following few
paragraphs are a snapshot of some of our work.
C H A T C A F E
One of the new things that we looked to
launch in 2021, was a new cafe-style event,
aimed at all the familiar voices we had spent
many hours speaking to through the
befriending calls, some 2-3 times weekly for
the last 70+ weeks.
Many of those we spoke to were fed up of
being at home, but afraid to leave. However,
we were a 'safe' space, both emotionally and
physically.
In September 21 we launched our first chat
cafe, operating under the Chatty Cafe
scheme, and brought in guest speakers from
SAMH, and Chris' House. The soft launch was
a success and the cafe has been running since
then, evolving and shaping as restrictions
have changed and relationships developed.
A S T O R Y O F S U P P O R T
Veronica came to us looking for help with a food parcel, and over time this developed
into befriending where she would call us whenever she felt lonely, upset or stressed
with the situation surrounding her family. We quickly realised that her family had
some debilitating physical and mental health issues; she was lonely and overwhelmed
and therefore needed someone independent to share worries with.
Through the befriending calls, trust was gained; she will now call up whenever she is
feeling down and has no reservations about talking to us in order to achieve some
calm in her life. This is a major stepping stone.
Veronica also orders our fresh meals regularly for herself and her family, which takes
the pressure off when it comes to financial worries and the caring aspect of her family
members; she is the sole carer with health issues herself. We work with Veronica to
get her the help and support that she needs, even if it is not ourselves who can
provide this. We referred and signposted her to other services such as The Wisegroup,
Financial Inclusion and Scottish Welfare Trust. We often follow up on these to make
sure she has what she needs and that she has been able to communicate the issues
clearly. This has been a huge benefit to her in helping her top up electricity,
maximising her benefits and more, as otherwise, she wouldn’t have known about the
additional support available to her and her family.
On top of this, she feels that the staff here at MADE4U are brilliant confidants
whenever she needs someone to talk to. Veronica says that MADE4U gives her the
peace of mind to know that she will be listened to and supported, whether it is a small
or big concern or worry for her. She says that some weeks, she goes without talking to
anyone except us, and we make her feel less alone - this is a story we hear from many.
No matter what it may be, she knows that with MADE4U she is treated fairly, without
judgement.
MADE4U is a rock for people within the ML2 area;
especially in terms of food , finance and mental health.
The feedback we have been given over the past
year has been phenomenal and really shows that
we are needed as a point of contact for
individuals from all walks of life.
We pride ourselves in the help we offer to
everyone, unconditionally, and they are glad to
have us there when they need a helping hand.
19
Although our befriending service offers many
other opportunities for support, unconditional
acceptance and support is the foundation of the
work we do.
F O O D A N D M E A L P R O V I S I O N
As with the case study on the previous page, the
work with adults and families that MADE4U has
prioritised over the last year has been largely
focused on food. Food poverty, insecurity and cost
increases have driven families over a precipice that
many have never faced before. Not only this, but
many elderly and those struggling with mental
health issues were too afraid or found it too difficult
to get back out to shops, cafes or meet with friends.
Our meals at this time offered a lifeline, where
people who were struggling could access a varied,
low-cost and healthy alternative to takeaways or
snacking throughout the day without having a meal.
During this period, we offered over 2200 healthy,
low-cost pre-cooked deals, including roast dinners,
chilli and more, helping many people in the
community eat more healthily and be more in control of their food choices.
"The boys won't eat veg - well, except
when it comes from MADE4U"

Our dedicated walking
group runs each Tuesday
in rain or shine,
throughout the year. The
group is led by our capable
and trained volunteer walk
leaders who look out for
each of the walkers, as well
as building relationship
and rapport with them.
The group is open to all
members, including those
who are less able, or for
example those in
wheelchairs or coming
with carers.
B I N G O
The BINGO group based in
our centre runs on a
Wednesday evening and is
facilitated by two
longterm volunteers. The
group is aimed at older
people. The group
increases social
opportunities and reduces
isolation.
The group always welcomes
members who have
experience of playing BINGO
and may want to play to
increase skill or reap
benefits like increasing
memory resilience.

This was the second year of running our Christmas
provision, which runs across all three of our
thematic departments and reaches hundreds of
individuals in the local area who need support.
MADE4U IN ML2 teamed up with Pathway Church
to bring a much-needed Christmas Toy Drive to
the Wishaw area and surrounding areas of
Motherwell. In last year's toy drive, we had a few
volunteers from Pathway church that helped out,
and this year they were very keen to get involved
in the organisation and partnership working of the
project.
Our main aim has been making sure we were reaching out to as many families and
children as possible, including 5-10% SIMD (Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation)
catchment areas, making sure that children had something to open on Christmas Day
and relieve pressure and stress from parents that were worried that they won't be able
to purchase any gifts for their children due to financial worries, mental health and
physical health issues.
The Toy Drive involved gathering a variety of new Christmas gifts/toys of various ages,
so we could put together a fun-filled festive box of toys that children would enjoy on
Christmas day; this also included big items too, like bikes, scooters, football goals and
digital devices. The project ran over 6-8 weeks from mid-October - 22nd December 2021
and finished just in time for Christmas.
Working closely with local organisations, our referral
partners included: First Intensive Service, Wishaw
Social Work Team, NLC Wishaw and Motherwell
Housing Support, The Health and Wellness Hub,
Wishaw CLD Team, Jobcentre (Employment support)
and local schools and nurseries i.e. St Thomas’
Primary school, Thornlie and Berryhill Primary. We
also referred to some of the key vulnerable families
we have worked with over the past year or two.
In addition to 231 children receiving gifts and presents, we
also managed to provide 350 meals to local people and
120+ adult hampers. These were provided on a refersomeone
basis, meaning that local people could
nominate elderly individuals living on their own for a meal
of turkey, or steak pie. This project is hugely well received
throughout the community, especially amongst those
who are struggling.
We are hugely grateful to all the organisation and individuals who support the
project, including Society St Vincent De Paul, Pathway Church, Salvation Army
Shotts, RBS, The Avenue, Wishaw Social Work Team, Probe Test Solutions and all the
individuals who donation toys and gifts.

One of the key pieces of work undertaken in this year was the chance to engage in the
Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival. This was something that overlapped years due to
it's timing, but the festival ran in May 2021. We showcased 2021's artwork in last year's
annual report, however, we didn't showcase the transformation of our building into a
community Tips and Tricks board.
The aim of this project was to gather ideas and suggestions for better mental health in
the community, especially while lockdowns were in place and restrictions were
impacting people's freedom. The ideas included:
Colouring in
always helps me
relax and unwind
Live today like there is
no tomorrow but
dream as if you'll live
forever
Going out a
walk with my
child to a park
Watch your favourite
film as many times as
you want!
Take pictures, they
are memories
frozen in time
We were also able to run a poetry competition with local school children during this
time, bringing in artwork about 'normality' and giving local kids a chance to explore
'feelings' as a topic in their class. Thanks to all the pupils and local schools who have
been taking part in our yearly art and poetry work.

The Pumpkin Light Trail event was created to provide a fun and enjoyable experience
for families during a typical "Halloween" period, except focusing on all things light and
positive.
The event consisted of two different walking groups, made up of families who had
booked online for the event through Eventbrite. Stations were set up to welcome
people, check them in and ensure they had wristbands for their events. Groups were
then led by a walk leader and volunteers through the two different routes to each
station to find clues and secrets. The walk routes themselves were accessible and
lasted about 30 minutes before the groups returned to the centre. Completing the
walks resulted in a goodie bag once they returned to the centre as well as hot dogs and
drinks to warm up.
The event took place thanks to the team of 9 staff who organised the activities and
routes, including two of our apprentice roles, plus 15 volunteers. These volunteers
included our Young Volunteer group, who keenly support the main centre events,
including Christmas work, Pumpkin Light Trail and Summer community days.
"Just a thanks for the effort you guys put into last nights pumpkin trail.
The kids had a ball and it was lovely to see them all having fun then
taking part in the activities afterwards."
"Just like to say thank you myself and the kids
enjoyed ourselves roll on nxt year"

FUNDRAISING
As we grow financially, it is our vision to see greater involvement from
the local community in raising and securing funding for the ongoing
operations and delivery of work. We are pleased to say that in this
reporting year, we saw an increase in involvement in challenge events.
May 21: 2215.73 Raised
MADE4U team took on a number of challenges in the virtual Kiltwalk. Some of
our team members chose to cycle 100 miles over the month of April, whilst
others took part in a sponsored walk up Tinto. We are proud of the 5 young
people and 3 staff members who contributed and raised awareness with their
friends and family.
Sept 21: 2134.26 Raised
A group of MADE4U volunteers and staff undertook the 3 mile wee wander,
along the Clyde to raise money and awareness of the work that MADE4U does
in the community. Once again, a whopping £2000+ was raised, as a testament
to the importance of the work and the willingness of the community to
support when asked.
June 21: 610.71 Raised
Aviva run several crowdfunding opportunities throughout the year, open to their
staff and the general public. In this financial year, we benefitted from one of these
rounds of crowdfunding, to support people who were disproportionately
challenged through the pandemic. On this occasion we raised more than £600,
and in this present year, we would encounter more success.
25
F U T U R E P L A N S
FUTURE PLANS
Once again, it has been an enormous privilege to cast vision and work
towards this, in making a bigger difference than ever before. This year
hasn't been without challenges, but some of those have now become
less of an issue as we move, as a society, to dealing with covid
different.
As of April 22, we were able to open most of our groups as previous
while reviewing some of the groups that weren't to open again or
taking steps to open up membership of others. At this time, we were
also able to offer two roles within the Wellbeing team; one a full-time
wellbeing development worker and the other a befriender. This was a
move that we motioned in our 'future plans' of last year, and we are so
pleased to have been awarded funding to invest in this important
work.
The kids' team also set a goal to work with more schools delivering
active play and have plans to move into outdoor play, which we were
awarded funding for, respectively from Awards for All and Inspiring
Scotland.
Our youth work team also continues to grow and develop partnerships
with the local school. We are looking forward to the second year of
Summer of Skills. Alongside this, we have been able to appoint a "Skills
and Involvement Worker" who will launch an employability and
confidence project with individuals, groups and schools in the new
school term. This role will also give us more capacity to honour and
develop the work of volunteers, young and old, within the
organisation. Funding from Impact Funding Partners allows us to make
this a focus until March 2024 at the earliest.
We continue to grow, and as such, the organisation comes across
issues associated with growing pains. We find ourselves with increased
challenges with regard to the maintenance of our building and often
with limited space to develop new forms of work. We also continue to
look at staffing, thinking particularly about the role of apprentice
workers and the necessity for increased support around funding, HR
and facilities, amongst other operational issues.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of
MADE4U IN ML2
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2022 set out on pages fifteen to thirty.
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 (as amended). The
charity's trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1)(a) to (c) 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 the independent examiner's report
My examination was 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
seeking explanations from you as 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 connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention :
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements
- to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 44(1)(a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006
Accounts Regulations; and
- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with Regulation 8 of the 2006
Accounts Regulations
have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be
reached.

Grants are included in the year in which they are receivable and the amount can be measured reliably; this is
normally upon notification from the grant funder.
(c) Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the
charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the
charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and
the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has
been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly
attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of
resources.
Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful
life.
Tenant improvements - 20% on cost
Office equipment - 33% on cost
Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity.
Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight line basis
over the period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable
company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of
any discounts due.
Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months
or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
Creditors
Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the
transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors
are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any discounts due.
