Mindseye Development CIC supports the social mobility, wellbeing and life chances of young people and families in Birmingham. During the financial year ending 31 July 2026, the company delivered targeted mentoring, group development work, family support and community engagement for young people experiencing disadvantage, behavioural concerns, poor school attendance, exclusion risk, family pressures and other barriers to progression. Our multi-tiered mentoring model provided early preventative support, intensive behavioural intervention and developmental mentoring focused on emotional regulation, positive decision-making, relationships, education and future planning. Delivery was coordinated with schools, pastoral and safeguarding staff, families and relevant external services so that support reflected each young person's needs and could respond quickly when concerns emerged. The work benefited the community by giving young people consistent access to trusted adults and safe spaces in which to address challenges before they escalated. It strengthened communication between young people, families and schools, supported earlier intervention and helped partners provide more coordinated, relationship-based responses. Community discussions also enabled residents and young people to share their experiences and contribute to conversations about education, safety and local services. During the reporting year, Mindseye Development delivered: 400 one-to-one mentoring sessions with 25 young people 40 group workshops involving 35 young people Family support interventions with 6 families 12 community discussions addressing issues affecting young people, families and local communities

They identified priorities including emotional regulation, conflict resolution, relationships, confidence and future planning. In response, mentors adapted individual plans and workshop content and provided more opportunities for young people to shape discussions and activities. Parents and Carers: Parents and carers contributed through regular progress discussions, meetings, home contact and family-support interventions. Their feedback highlighted the importance of clearer communication and consistent expectations between home, school and support services. Mindseye responded by strengthening family liaison, providing tailored guidance and coordinating more closely with school pastoral teams. Schools and Educational Staff: Schools were consulted through referral planning, safeguarding communication and progress reviews. Staff feedback helped align mentoring with individual behaviour, attendance and inclusion plans. In response, mentors shared relevant progress information, prioritised support around periods of increased risk and worked with staff to provide earlier, more coordinated intervention. Community and External Stakeholders: Twelve community discussions provided opportunities for young people, families, residents and partner organisations to raise concerns and share views about education, community safety and access to support. Feedback reinforced the need for stronger collaboration and for young people's experiences to inform local responses. Mindseye used these findings to shape future discussions and partnership activity.
