Repor t f rom The Chai r

Another year has flown by and during the course of the last twelve months Himmat and itspartner organisation Ummid have experienced a number of interesting changes.

Income has increased and for the first time has exceeded £½ million - a viable and hopefullysustainable combination of hard won contract work and of funding from various charitabletrusts and other organisations. It is a tribute to Asi and his staff and the reputation that theyhave won for themselves that the reliance on charitable funding has proportionatelydecreased while the contract work has continued to grow year on year. Himmat can be reliedon to deliver and to offer different, exciting but also practical solutions to some of theproblems facing young people in our modern society.

Perhaps a prime example of that burgeoning reputation is the fact that Atisham Ali has nowleft the organisation to move to bigger things. When I first became involved with Himmatnearly 10 years ago, Atch had recently joined, having previously worked for the Halifax. Ihave watched him over the years; his close involvement and empathy with the children; therespect and admiration he won from all who came into contact with him; the hard work he putinto his job and also into qualifying as a teacher. He has been the essence of Himmat andan admirable No. 2 to Asi. Now he has been "poached" to go to serve as Islamic religiousadvisor to the Prison Directorate - a job that would have been unthinkable perhaps had henot won his spurs working for Himmat. I wish him every success in his new role.

He will be a hard act to follow, but such is the team that has been built up at Himmat that hisloss will not be felt as greatly as it might have been some years ago. Himmat's success isentirely down to teamwork and the determined drive and vision generated by Asi.

Each year I have tried to put something different in my piece for the annual report and eachyear it becomes increasingly hard to think of new superlatives. The proof of Himmat'ssuccess can be seen in the young people that it works with. Go and see!!

In t roduct ion

It is with great pleasure that I am writing this brief synopsis on Himmat's progress over thelast twelve months.

The Project at the moment bears no resemblance to what it was twelve months ago. Wehave consolidated a number of programmes and are currently looking at extending ourprovision. We currently employ the equivalent of twenty full-time staff, with a budgetexceeding half a million pounds.

Below I will give a brief resume of the programmes that have been delivered in the lasttwelve months.

Mohammed AslamProject Director

Matching Chances

This Youth Justice Board funded programme aims to divert ethnic minority youth fromentering the Criminal Justice System through advocating and actively supporting amentoring scheme called Matching Chances in partnership with the Bradford YouthOffending Team (YOT). This programme worked with targeted young people referred by theBradford YOT.

During the year the project worked with thirty-six young people from Asian background andbetween the ages of twelve to seventeen, from which thirty were selected. At the same timeforty-nine volunteers mentors were recruited .To date thirty-eight volunteer are activelyengaged with the programme. All these mentors attended a number of training events whichincluded (to name but a few) Child Protection, Violence and Aggression, Basic Skillsassessment and basic knowledge of the Criminal Justice system.. The Mentoring programme has been delivered in three stages.All the young people are required to participate in the five-module Cognitive behaviourprogramme called Preparation for Change. This is followed by a residential where the youngpeople are introduced to mentors. Thematching of mentors/mentee took placeusually a week after the residential. Theyoung people engaged with the project for aminimum of six months in order for theproject to have maximum impact. The key to the success of this project hasbeen the close working relationship withparents and other agencies.

The measurable positive outcome for theyear has been that of the initial cohort ofthirty young people only four have reoffended. This represents an eighty sixpercent success rate. A number of volunteermentor, have secured employment withinthe YOT.

The funding for this programme is in placetill March 2005.

Ongoing Work

At the same time as all the initiatives described in this report, all the previous projectcontinued and are extremely popular . Himmat continues to facilitate Homework Drop-InScheme, the targeted G.C.S.E Homework Support Scheme, the Youth Centre, the SummerK2 School, the Friday Girls Activities Evening , NOF funded residentials to the WesternIsles ,the Connexions NEET ( Not in Education or Training ) programme, Summer activities,as well as our statutory work in Bradford and Keighley on behalf of the West YorkshireProbation Board.

During the year Himmat has worked in partnership with Bradford Vision, Connexions WestYorkshire, West Yorkshire Probation Board, Bradford Youth Offending Team, EducationBradford, Youth Service ( Bradford and Calderdale ), Calderdale MBC, Career Service,Pupil Referral unit Bradford, Education Bradford, Halifax Opportunities Trust, Action Halifax,Halifax High School, Calderdale High School just to name a few.

Himmat has continued to deliver a lot of innovative programmes, one of which may end upbeing the blue prints of a new framework of working with those in custody. We have builtan excellent reputation in Bradford . One of our Staff members Mr. Atch Ali has moved tothe Home Office as advisor.

All has not been rosy as regarding a new building for Himmat, which at the moment hasbeen put on the back burner.

The Future

Himmat is currently in the process of securing funding from the Home Office to pilot twonew initiatives. One of these is family group conferencing and the other is a Mentoring Plusfor young offenders returning from custody. Both these Project will be in Partnership withNACRO.

Once again we at Himmat thank all those who have supported us over the years.

Ummid Second Chances Pro ject -UMMID

The project is based at the YMCA building in Bradford and works with those pupils whohave either been exclude from mainstream education or are on the verges of exclusion.This programme provides an alternative out of school education provision.

Since the project started in September 2002 we have built a very good relationship withother agencies. Our main avenue for referrals is from Education Bradford Pupil ReferralUnit (PRU), Bradford YOT and the secondary schools. The Second Chances is the onlyproject in Bradford that works along side the national curriculum. The referrals are onlyaccepted by Second Chances once the young person and their parents have visited theproject and agreed to the ethos of Ummid.

Our ethos is to try and work with our students in such a way that we can prepare them for areturn to their respective schools or try and find a new school for them if they arepermanently excluded or move them on to college / training.

During the year second Chances worked with twenty-four pupils. Thirteen young peopleattended the programme on full-time basis and another nine on part time basis (respite).These young people are very challenging and sometimes very difficult to engage but so farthe young people like the programme and attend on more regularly than they had ever doneany before with other provisions.

The PRU, the Schools and the referring agencies pay for the pupils who are referred to theproject

All the young people attending Second Chances are working towards Youth Train modulesin Numeracy, literacy and citizenship. Their attendance and commitment at the project haseven surprised the seasoned PRU and Schools staff.

New In i t ia t ive

Last years Street Crime Initiative made us awareof the need to continue engaging the targeted11/12-year-old boys.

These young boys like others of their age lovetheir football. The project decided to form anunder 13's football team and enter them in thelocal league.

The success of the team from September 2003 toApril was not anticipated . Initially there was nobonding or commitment from the young people,but to their credit the young people recognised theimportance of commitment, training, teamwork andrespecting their opponents.

As the team had never played outdoor football ouraim at the start session was for our team to winone game and see how the rest of the sessionpanned out. Yet the team won four game and nowwe are intending to start an under 11 team aswell.

Re-Integrat ion of Offenders (RIO)

RIO is facilitated in a partnership with Bradford Vision , Bradford Council, West YorkshireProbation , Police, and a number of other key Community Safety Agencies The Bulk of thework is carried out by Ummid and funded by Bradford Vision.

This innovative initiative works with those people involved in the Bradford Riots of July2001. In particular those offenders who were sentenced to custody for four years or more ofwhich there are 70. We strongly believe that effective resettlement of these offenders iscentral to the economic and social regeneration of the communities, the protections ofvictims and improving community Cohesion. The thrust of the project is to pilot a newframe for the successful rehabilitation of offender into the community.

The model that we are piloting is in three phases. The first phase included extensiveintervention with the offender while they are in prison, addressing their Offending behaviour,looking at the skills needs and ensuring that these offenders use their time in custody mostproductively and learn skills that will help them secure employment on release. This hasmeant that each prisoner is visited at least once every six weeks. This has proved to be ahideous task as these people are held in prison as far apart as Havrigg in Cumbria andPortland in Devon.

Concurrently as working with Offenders we support their families, ensuring that the relationbetween them and the offender is strengthened and thus there is a supportive home toreturn to. Initially the families were very apprehensive and cynical towards the project .This was because the families of the offenders genuinely believed in the conspiracy theoryand that the institutions and the agencies were out to get the communities. However, oncethese families got to know the Project staff the relationship changed for the positive. Theproject staff ensured that the prisoners' families were in receipt of all the benefits whichthey were entitled to and then sign posted them to agencies who could further supportthem.

The third phase is working with employers who are willing to take these people on oncethey are released from custody. This phase is lead by Bradford Probation and theEmployment Services with our staff in supporting roles. The first offenders serving fouryears would be released in June 2004. And we are hoping to get majority of these peopleinto employment of or training when released.

During the year the project staff carried out 396 prison visits , 420 homes visits and hadmore than a thousand telephone contacts.
