We know, for example, that Centrepoint in central London felt it enjoyed "fabulous success" with its "Funk it up" awards event, featuring live performances from the likes of MC Redskin explaining in rhyme how "Centrepoint gave me the strength I need to succeed, The strength I need to believe without weed, The help to get me back on trax, And now I bring truth to the booth, Now I'm back on trax".
Elsewhere there were wellbeing evenings, training events, and mental health sessions run by youth projects around the country.
