Annual Review 2022

Message from the Chair

Welcome to my second Chair’s Review for the Lloyds Bank Foundation for the Channel Islands, reflecting on 2022 and looking forward to our aims, ambitions, and objectives for 2023.

Underpinning all our work is our continued pledge to support charitable organisations which help people, especially those who are disadvantaged, play a fuller role within their local communities.

In 2022, we provided funding of £686,214 as well as additional funding to active grant holders to help with the impact of cost of living. This was worth an additional 7.6% of their grant value at a cost of £61,375 from the Lloyds Banking Group (LBG). We operate with complete independence from LBG, but this is a real example of the support we enjoy from Group Executive.

We have continued to offer developmental support including our mentoring programme, charity response forums and the skills exchange. We have mentoring relationships with 11 charities to really maximise impact beyond funding. This continues to illustrate the unique offering from the Foundation.

At the end of the year, the Foundation held two evening receptions in Jersey and Guernsey. These demonstrated the benefit of the Foundation grants for charities, and emphasised the added value of having a mentor from the Bank working alongside them.

After a two-year gap due to Covid, we welcomed back our annual seminars, focusing on Engaging with Lived Experience. We were privileged to welcome the inspirational Paula Harriott, Head of Prison Engagement for the Prison Reform Trust, as our keynote speaker.

These seminars were packed with charities and interested parties seeking to learn more about lived experience, and to find out how they could incorporate lived experience into their organisations.

The feedback and comments were overwhelming. So much so that our 2023 seminars were able to expand on 2022 by exploring the practical steps charities can take to achieve their vision for lived experience leadership. We were pleased to welcome Paula back again to share her knowledge and experience.

Collaboration and partnership with the States and the third sector will always be a focus. The Foundation will continue to encourage more co-operation and shared vision. To see so many politicians at our events is encouraging. Of course, we recognise that will always be a work in progress, but it has never been more important than now, with charities facing ever more onerous challenges in resources, rising costs and expansion of services.

Closer collaboration with other grant givers is key. This includes sharing intelligence, understanding on need, where there are gaps in services and where funding requests are coming into grant givers. This helps to ensure that funding is distributed where it will have the greatest impact.

Where charities require significant funding, a single conversation between groups of grant givers and charities is a more efficient approach and has resulted in co-funding arrangements. As a group of grant givers, we have a more coordinated and stronger voice with the Islands’ governments.

We are enormously grateful to our sole funder, Lloyds Banking Group for its ongoing financial commitment and wider support offered to the Foundation and charities in the Channel Islands. We are also grateful to the support of Lloyds Bank Foundation for England and Wales helping to ensure the smooth running of the Foundation’s back-office functions.

At the very heart of the Foundation, the Board recognises the huge contribution from our Executive Director, Jo Le Poidevin. She is the eyes, ears, and engine room of the Foundation. This is an opportunity to thank her, on behalf of myself and all the Trustees for her support and guidance.

We cannot perform our role as a Foundation without a spectacular Board and I send a personal thank you to all the Trustees who work diligently, providing knowledge, wisdom, and passion to the good governance of the Foundation and our grant giving process. A special thank you to John Henwood whose six years’ exceptional service to the Board ended in 2022. And a fond welcome to David Pirouet who has joined us.

The core objectives for 2023 will again focus on delivering support to organisations who can make a real difference with an emphasis through our grant programme on salaries and core funding. Against a backdrop of volatile financial markets, we will always be watchful of our financial stability, with funds given where the need is greatest and where impact can be measured. We will continue to provide a voice in our community for those most vulnerable and disadvantaged.

Our strategic partnership with Lloyds Banking Group will continue enabling us to offer charities developmental support to complement our core funding. As a leading funder across the Channel Islands, we will continue to focus on our core work as well as working in partnership with those with shared ideals. These will be the main aims for the Foundation for the year ahead.

Philippa Stahelin Chair of the Board of Trustees

Message from the Executive Director

It is with great pleasure that we present the vital work of our charity partners funded and supported by the Foundation in the Channel Islands. In 2022, charities have been exceptional in managing and deploying resources to meet an evergrowing demand for their services and support in an increasingly challenging environment.

We know that charities and the people they support have found the last few years particularly challenging with the impact of Brexit, Covid and cost of living crisis with charities facing very difficult decisions about the future of their services. We are very proud of what the charity sector and all those working, volunteering, and supporting the sector, have achieved.

In 2022 the Foundation supported the incredible work of the charitable sector with £686,214 in funding. This included distributing £60,000 in grant uplifts to support our existing charity partners with the pressures the cost of living crisis.

Alongside the funding, the Foundation continues to provide developmental support to help charities improve their resilience and sustainability. We are enormously proud of our strategic partnership with Lloyds Banking Group which gives us access to a wealth of skills and expertise amongst bank colleagues.

Through skills-based volunteering programmes such as mentoring, the skills exchange, and the charity forums, bank colleagues have supported charities in a variety of different areas including strategy, business and financial planning, reviewing organisational structures, leading and managing teams, and digital, communication and marketing.

We were delighted to welcome back our Annual Seminars in April, our first in person events since 2019. The focus of our Annual Seminars was engaging with lived experience, with our inspirational keynote speaker, Paula Harriott from the Prison Reform Trust, and Emma Beeson expertly facilitating the workshop. The events were very well-received, and sparked much interest in how charities can progress on their journey of engaging with lived experience.

In November, we hosted our first Winter Receptions for charity partners, bank colleagues who have volunteered with charities, politicians, and civil servants to showcase and celebrate the work of the charities and how Foundation funding and support has helped them.

The Foundation continues to work closely with the Group’s other three Foundations covering England and Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland, particularly through the developmental support programme and bank colleague engagement. We are grateful as always to Lloyds Bank Foundation for England and Wales for their continued back-office support which enables the smooth running of core functions at the Foundation.

My gratitude as always to Lloyds Banking Group, our sole funder, not just for their funding but the wider support offered to the Foundation and our partner charities. My sincere thanks to John Henwood MBE who retired at the end of 2022, for his invaluable contribution to the Foundation over the last six year. A warm welcome to our new Trustee, David Pirouet who joined in January 2023. Lastly, special thanks to all the Foundation’s Trustees, for their unwavering commitment to the Foundation and its work during this challenging year.

Kairos Arts Health including Mental Health

Kairos Arts creates and facilitates therapeutic arts workshops for groups and one-toone interventions with children and young people.

“We believe that the therapeutic nature of our workshops can form an intrinsic part of the healing process for those dealing with trauma and pain and can empower them to rediscover a sense of self-worth.”

The Foundation awarded Kairos Arts with £32,700 towards the salaries of two key staff members.

“The Foundation has equipped us with strength, vision, and confidence when we needed it. Thank you for believing in us,” Cathy comments.

Kairos Arts truly does make a difference to the lives of the people they support. Cathy told us an example of an eleven-year-old

boy who was feeling lost, disconnected, and showing high levels of anxiety as we emerged from Covid.

He was only drawn to work with plasticine. While he was unable to verbally express how he felt, the plasticine was ripped, stabbed, broken, and discarded.

“Through the arts, we can express the inexpressible. This can be vital for those not ready to enter a verbal therapeutic setting. The creative arts bypass the rational part of the brain and tap into the deepest part of a person.”

Director

Through one-to-one sessions, Cathy helped him to establish boundaries and build connection. By the last session, he created a character that was kept, along with a container to keep him in, because he himself felt safe and contained. Since then, he has begun to make friendships and discovered a renewed self-worth. £32k

Guernsey Voluntary Service Support for Older People

The Guernsey Voluntary Service (GVS) delivers a range of services to Guernsey’s older citizens and offers inspiring volunteer opportunities to Islanders who would like to lend a caring hand.

The Foundation awarded £54,400 towards the costs of the Jubilee Social Club.

Cheryl is the Social Club Manager, her role is to ensure the safe running of the Jubilee Social Club.

“Without Cheryl it would be impossible to run the Jubilee Social Club,” says Mandy Le Bachelet, General Manager at GVS. “She is a vital link, a true asset to us and the wider community.”

GVS’ social clubs welcome more than 200 people each year, resulting in more than 7,500 visits in 2022.

Mandy adds, “Often, visitors to the Jubilee Social Club would otherwise spend the day alone at home. Even if they are living with family, they can quite often be home alone for long periods of the day.

“When they come to us, it gives them something to get up for and look forward to. They can join in with various activities and socialise with other visitors, helping to keep their brain and body active.

At the end of the day, there’s plenty to go home and talk about with family.”

As well as providing entertainment and interaction, the Jubilee Social Club acts as a safety net for many clients. Cheryl and the team are well placed to notice if something is not quite right and know how and when to delicately escalate concerns.

Attending the social clubs is not the only service GVS’ clients can benefit from. The charity also manages the Island’s Meals on Wheels service from the Jubilee Social Club, delivering around 25,000 meals per year.

“None of this would be possible without Cheryl. She is the glue that holds it all together and we are very grateful to the Foundation for the grant.”

YouMatter Support for Children and Young People

YouMatter works with young people in Jersey to help build their self-esteem and develop an understanding of their true value and worth.

Through workshops, children and young people learn to identify characteristics of healthy and unhealthy relationships both online and offline, as well as providing them with practical skills to stay safe. The charity also equips them with ways to build and maintain positive emotional health and wellbeing.

Additionally, YouMatter is a specialist Personal Social and Health Education charity, with expert knowledge of Relationships and Sex Education. All the workshops on offer are free of charge to ensure that money isn’t a barrier to young people receiving the support they deserve. YouMatter promotes equality of access to all its services and to enable it to do so, the charity relies on donations.

The Foundation awarded £66,000 towards the salaries of the Educators.

Over the last year, the grant has funded the delivery of education programmes to more than 3,000 young people. The charity has also undertaken targeted one-toone and small-group work for vulnerable, disadvantaged young people.

“We are so very grateful to the Lloyds Bank Foundation for the Channel Islands for their continued support of YouMatter”, said Sarah Gray, Executive Director for YouMatter.

towards Educator salaries

“Our high-quality workshops are an important part of the Personal Social and Health Education (PSHE) provision in Jersey and ensure that children and young people in our community receive interactive, engaging, upto-date and age-appropriate relationships and sex education.

“Our workshops inspire and equip them to make healthy choices in respect of the pressures and challenges that they face in the world today.”

In 2022, 98% of young people said that they felt empowered to foster positive relationships with the people in their lives because of the workshops and 98% said that they felt equipped with practical strategies and knowledge to look after their own emotional health and wellbeing.

One young person told YouMatter after a workshop, “This session will help us in future relationships. I will remember to be open with my partner and respect their decisions, and they must respect mine.”

Caritas Jersey Advice and Advocacy

Caritas Jersey reaches out to the poor, the marginalised, the weak and the infirm in the community and seeks to be their advocate.

The Foundation awarded Caritas Jersey £40,000 towards the salary of their CEO. This has allowed the CEO to continue with and build on Caritas’ existing projects.

It has also allowed the CEO and his team to work extensively on the 2022 Jersey General Election for the benefit of those most in need in our community.

Caritas was able to build relationships with the new government resulting in a commitment to raise the minimum wage to parity with the Living Wage and for the first time in Jersey, adopted a definition of homelessness that will allow the Island to fully quantify the scale of this everincreasing problem.

The people that Caritas support have benefited by more firms paying the Living Wage. For those working for businesses that do not yet pay the Living Wage, they have at least benefited from a large rise in the minimum wage at the beginning of November.

Those people that Caritas support who are in Jersey on short work permits have also benefited from the leadership Caritas has provided, being their voice when they have experienced prejudice and difficult working conditions and representing them at various forums.

“2022 was an unprecedented year when the cost-of-living emergency took further hold on the island and Caritas.” says Patrick Lynch, CEO.

“Through the kind funding of Lloyds Bank Foundation for the Channel Islands, we were able to ensure the needs of so many in poverty were heard, and started to be addressed, by government.”

Relate offers adult relationship counselling for couples and individuals in a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental environment with fully trained professionals.

The Foundation awarded Relate with £20,000 towards its core operating costs and to help the charity achieve its business plan.

Relate Guernsey Community Support £20k

The funding has been used to train two new counsellors, as well as going towards an MSc course in psychosexual therapy for another counsellor. Relate has also booked internationally renowned therapist Professor Mick Cooper for a workshop on relational depth which is open to all counsellors and therapists on the Island.

Cecilia Bjorkman Willis, who undertook her MSc with the support of the grant, explains, “Psychosexual therapy treats individuals and couples with clinically defined sexual dysfunctions; whether they are rooted in a physical illness, a side effect of medication, or more psychologically based difficulties. “Intimacy is a critical part of self-worth, attachment, and wellbeing. Psychosexual problems can be extremely distressing for those impacted, resulting in mental health decline and a higher risk of couple separation. Relate Guernsey can now support many more couples with this much needed therapy.”

“Healthy relationships are at the heart of a healthy community,” says Michelle

“We’d sincerely like to thank Lloyds Bank Foundation for the Channel Islands for supporting us to help more people on the Island and to help secure a sustainable future for Relate Guernsey.”

Dementia Jersey Support for Older People £55k

Dementia Jersey is a team of professionals who give expert support on dementia, raise awareness and, campaign to improve services for people with dementia and those who care for them.

The Foundation awarded Dementia Jersey a grant of £55,101 towards the salary of the Lead Dementia Advisor and Counsellor.

The Lead Advisor works with two other Dementia Advisors to help support people living with or affected by dementia. A range of support services, from one-to-one counselling to dementia-friendly activities, are offered by the charity. These are available to people living with dementia and their family, friends, and carers.

Dementia Jersey also works with local stakeholders to improve the lives of those living with dementia and their family and carers through the charity’s Lived Experience Advisory Panel.

“We aim to make Jersey a dementiafriendly island,” says Wendy Buckley, Interim CEO at Dementia Jersey. “Dementia is often referred to as a ‘long goodbye’ because you lose the person a long time before their physical presence ceases to be, meaning that those living with dementia and the people around them require specialist support.

“Our Lead Dementia Advisor is instrumental in delivering our services, and we simply could not afford to keep doing the work we do without the Foundation’s support.”

Frank and his wife Ann are supported by Dementia Jersey. Frank says, “As a carer, life has got a lot easier thanks to Dementia Jersey. It’s great because I can leave Ann to get on with art and chat away without a worry. It’s taken a lot of stress off.

“We’ve had a lot of practical and emotional support from Dementia Jersey. You feel like if you have a problem, you can talk through it with their staff and find a solution.”

The Shelter Trust Jersey

The Shelter Trust Jersey is the largest provider of services for homeless people in Jersey. The Trust offers accommodation, support, and a way forward for Jersey’s homeless community.

In May 2022, the Shelter Trust Jersey opened Venetia House, a site dedicated to the provision of the charity’s womenonly service. John Hodge, Director at the Shelter Trust, says that opening women’s only accommodation has been a long-held ambition of the charity.

“Homelessness for women requires a different kind of response. There is a pressing need for services for homeless women in Jersey, and we now have 21 bed spaces to help support them.

Previously, the Foundation provided funding to help open Venetia House. A further £90,000 was awarded to go towards the vulnerable women’s service.

The charity believes that the provision at Venetia House is a new way of doing things for socially isolated and excluded women. There are primary care clinics on site, as well as key workers and specialist workers to provide support. There is a particular focus on women separated from their children, with the aim of better coordinating services, improving access to support and having an advocate for women.

All the staff at Venetia House have undergone women specific homelessness training and trauma informed support training. The staff work with women through a negotiated process for assessment and measurement, helping them to understand where they are and

how to improve various aspects of their lives, such as personal relationships and finances. Once they feel able to move back to mainstream accommodation, the door is left open for them to have a continued relationship with the charity.

“Women are judged more harshly than men when it comes to homelessness. This makes them among the most vulnerable members of our society. With the funding from Lloyds Bank Foundation for the Channel Islands, we can transform the lives of these women, for good.”

Guernsey Community Savings (GCS) is a nonprofit making charitable organisation helping financially excluded Guernsey residents access basic financial services. Its aim is to help customers manage their financial affairs, play a full, valuable role in society, and ultimately gain access to mainstream banking.

The Foundation awarded Guernsey Community Savings a grant of £53,500 towards the salary of a part-time member of staff over two years.

Though the charity is supported by several volunteers and by the Board of Directors, GCS has only two members of staff. It is their job to meet the clients, handle any issues that arise, run financial education courses, and liaise with referral agencies and other key stakeholders.

Peter Neville, Chair of GCS, said, “Our vision is that no one in the Bailiwick of Guernsey will be financially excluded from being part of and contributing to their community.”

Since opening its doors in September 2020, GCS has provided life-changing support to more than 100 islanders who had previously been financially excluded from society because they didn’t have a bank account. GCS ensures that each of their clients has an easy-to-use online account, a debit card, and a means of building up savings.

Alongside supporting the clients who have been set up with an account, GCS offers financial management education to those who need it, including running sixweek programmes with the education department at Guernsey Prison.

Mike’s Story

Mike had lost his bank account after going to prison. The whole experience had caused him significant trauma and left him anxious and introverted. After some encouragement, GCS was able to meet with Mike and a Support Worker, in a comfortable setting and open an account remotely, avoiding the stressful trip to the GCS office. Since then, Mike has found a job he enjoys, has a new relationship and is living life more freely.

“We simply could not operate without our members of staff. We were fortunate to receive a grant from Lloyds Bank Foundation for the Channel Islands in 2020, which was critical to getting the service off the ground. We are now extremely grateful for the new grant which enables us to pay the salary of one of our staff members for the next two years.”

Guernsey Mind Health including Mental Health

Guernsey Mind is a mental health charity whose main aim is to support the people of the Bailiwick, encouraging a positive attitude towards mental health and supporting mental wellbeing.

This is achieved in three main ways; through the provision of one-to-one services; an extensive workplace wellbeing programme of training and support; and work in the community, which includes the provision of support groups, awareness raising events and proactive community awareness campaigning.

Mind received a total of £350,000 in funding to help it deliver its core services over a two-year period. The Foundation awarded £50,000, the Social Investment Fund awarded £200,000 and Guernsey Community Foundation awarded a further £100,000.

In 2022, Guernsey Mind provided 431 individuals with one-to-one support, while 1,216 people attended one of the charity’s training sessions, with 152 becoming Mental Health First Aiders.

In addition to helping people on an individual level, one of the charity’s aims is to promote positive mental health, to raise awareness and enable access to a range of services for everyone who needs them.

One of the biggest barriers for people seeking help for poor mental health is stigma. The work Mind does through its awareness raising campaigns and training

programmes seeks to dispel stigma, educate, and inform the whole community about the importance of looking after mental health as well as physical health, and that early, proactive help and support can lead to much more positive outcomes.

“Our vision is of a society that has a positive attitude towards mental health and is supportive of mental wellbeing for all. In addition to helping people on an individual level, one of our aims is to promote positive mental health to raise awareness and enable access to a range of services for everyone who needs them.”

My Voice Developmental Support - Mentoring

Alongside funding, the Foundation provides developmental support to its charity partners. This includes mentoring, where a Lloyds Bank International colleague is paired with a charity whose needs suit their expertise.

My Voice supports people who are severely affected by mental illness or lacking capacity. The charity employs a team of specialist Mental Health Advocates who work across Jersey. Specialist national training and skills enable their advocates to work with individuals with the most complex needs.

Since 2006, the professional, independent mental health advocacy charity has supported around 400 people per year in Jersey from between 14 and 104 years of age. Most of their clients will have a recent professional diagnosis of schizophrenia, bipolar affective disorder, depression, personality disorder or dementia.

My Voice has the States of Jersey contract for mental health advocacy, but it is sometimes difficult for them to measure outcomes and

effectiveness. The charity supports people with serious mental health problems, meaning that just making it through the day is a positive outcome.

Lloyds Bank International colleague, Jack Waters, has been working with Patricia Winchester, CEO at My Voice, to help improve the charity’s data collection, processing and sharing.

Using his experience of preparing Board papers at Lloyds Bank International, Jack helped Patricia to prepare high-level Board papers.

“It’s about pitching it at the right level,” Jack explains. “Patricia needed to provide the Board with enough information to understand how they could best support, without them getting bogged down in details.”

Patricia says that working with Jack has validated her experience and leadership. “He has given me the confidence to make the right decisions for My Voice,” she says. “In sharing his experience, Jack has enabled us to determine the best roles and responsibilities for our Board of Non-Executive Directors, giving our charity a clearer and more strategic direction.”

“It’s been a really rewarding experience,” Jack comments. “The passion My Voice has is incredibly inspiring and I’ve enjoyed the opportunity to be outside of my comfort zone.”

Staff Matched Giving

Our Staff Matched Giving scheme gives Lloyds Bank International colleagues the opportunity to claim up to £1,000 for eligible charities of their choice after taking part in fundraising and volunteering out of working hours.

This can include holding positions on charity boards and committees and volunteering in care settings, preparing meal services and supporting the running of Guiding organisations. Fundraising initiatives can vary from raffles, afternoon teas, family days, sleep outs, charity cycle rides, and swimming challenges.

The charities benefiting have covered Alderney, Guernsey and Jersey. Services have included meal delivery, cancer support, hospice care, support for young people who are care experienced, assistance for people with a disability, support for homeless people, and mental health and wellbeing.

Brightly £1.5k

Matched Giving claims raised a further £11,998 for charities in the Channel Islands, including £1,500 for Brightly through their Family Fun Day.

Brightly

Brightly (formerly known as Brig-y-Don Children’s Charity) is a small, independent local charity that awards grants to children and young people from birth to 25 years, who are under the care of the Children’s Service.

2022 marked the third time the Lloyds Bank International team has been supporting Brightly’s Family Fun Day, taking a brief hiatus during Covid. As well as covering some of the costs of the event and supporting the planning process, Lloyds Bank International colleagues volunteer with on-the-day activities.

Jason Lewis, Business Development Manager says, ‘It really is a brilliant day for colleagues. Not only is it a wonderful way to give back to the local community, but there is a real sense of camaraderie and fun.’

‘Our Family Fun Day would truly not be achievable without the support of Jason Lewis, Maria Sutcliffe and the team at Lloyds Bank International. When they first approached me with plans to help, I could never have imagined just what we could produce. Thanks to their support, we can offer a brilliant day out for the local community, and most importantly raise funds for children and young people in need.’
