BlueJay Body Mind & Soul CIC empowers young people to be the best version of themselves and live with positive mental and physical health by teaching them a toolkit of techniques including yoga, mindfulness, breathwork and human biology. The activities have benefited young people across Tyne & Wear in the community, schools, community groups and council led services. In this year of trading, BlueJay has; - Piloted a new programme of daily mindfulness for schools – ‘BlueJay Balanced Minds – Integrating Daily Mindfulness into Education’ for a whole school in the academic year September 2023- July 2024. - We were commissioned by the housing company ‘Gentoo’, to support their Corporate Social Responsibility Strategy, providing workshops for schools in Sunderland during Anti-Bullying Week. These were all free of charge to the end user. These sessions were underpinned by discussions around why people bully others and how positive mental health and simple affirmations can support both the bully and the victim. - Following this work, two schools took contracts for weekly classes. - Renewed annual contract with a local school for weekly classes and an after-school club. - Continued to support young people with their transition from primary to secondary. - Successful in applying for the Kickstart grant from Social Enterprise Boost and was the first person in the country to receive this. - A new service named ‘Reframing Resilience’ is launching shortly offering 1-1 personalised sessions for young people struggling with various mental health issues such as anxiety or anger management. When these sessions are offered in the community these are free of charge to the family. The pilot for this will be supported by the funding from Social Enterprise Boost. All of the above allowed BlueJay to increase their social impact to a reach of 3260 young people.
The stakeholders are the director, the Board of Non Executive Directors and the direct and indirect service users i.e., the schools, the local authorities, parents and carers and the children and young people. Before delivery of services commences, the service user is contacted to ensure they are happy with the planned activities and confirmation of who the end users will be. Following delivery, all service users are asked to complete feedback, ensuring that BlueJay can act upon this feedback given to improve services and where appropriate this is also fed back to the Board of Directors (anonymised where needed). In all cases, feedback is requested from the person booking the service (headteachers, CIC directors, council team leaders), the adults present at delivery (teachers, council workers, staff) and importantly the children and young people receiving the service. This was carried out in a way appropriate for the audience. Feedback is collated and stored safely and acted upon to ensure services are meeting the needs of the community. For the new service ‘Reframing Resilience’ the young people are co-producers of their own support package, by tailoring their support alongside the Director. This gives them a sense of ownership over their sessions, helping them to feel part of the process and listened to.
The Director became a paid member of staff on payroll from January 2024. There were no other transactions or arrangements in connection with the remuneration of directors, or compensation for director’s loss of office, which require to be disclosed.
