TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

The Trustees (who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006) present their annual report together with the audited financial statements of The Jewish Association for Mental Illness (the company) for the year ended 31 March 2020. The Trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the Charitable Company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the governing document and the provisions of the revised Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP): Accounting and Reporting by Charities 2019.

The company also trades under the name Jami.

Structure, governance and management

a. Governing document

Jami is a charitable company limited by guarantee and was established in 1991. It is governed by a Memorandum and Articles of Association, which allows for any activities covered by the charity’s objectives with no specific restrictions. Jami is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission. Jewish Care is a sole Member of the Company and shall appoint a Trustee to liaise between the Trustees and the Member. The Trustees are also Directors of the Company.

b. Appointment of Trustees

The Board of Trustees consists of at least 9 members of which at least one th ird shall be ‘carers’ and at least one Trustee must have lived experience of mental health issues. Jewish Care is entitled to appoint up to 3 Trustees. Each Trustee shall retire from office on the third anniversary of his or her appointment but may be appointed for up to 3 terms in total. Donations received from Trustees without restrictions were £29,493 (2018/19 £70,320).

c. Trustee induction and training

New Trustees received induction training into their role to familiarise themselves with both the Charity and the responsibilities that go with Trusteeship. This is supplemented with more specialised training in areas as the need arises and at policy meetings which bring together Trustees and senior staff to review the Charity’s goals and strategic plans.

d. Organisation

The Board of Trustees meets regularly to discuss and formulate policy and oversee operations. The Chief Executive is appointed by the Trustees to manage the day to day operations of the charity. To facilitate effective operations, the Chief Executive has delegated authority for operational matters including finance and human resources. A Professional Advisory and Clinical Governance committee, chaired by a Trustee, is established to develop and monitor clinical governance activities and processes.

e. Related parties, transactions and relationships

The Charity’s wholly owned subsidiary, Jami Sales & Services Ltd, was originally established to operate the Charity Shop in Golders Green but now includes the online sale of donated goods and other activities including upcycling based from a warehouse in Borehamwood and a café in Golders Green - Head Room. Profits are transferred by way of Gift Aid through a Deed of Covenant dated 9[th] May 1994. None of the Trustees received any remuneration for their work associated with the Charity. Related party transactions are further disclosed in note 21 of the accounts.

The Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) and Balance Sheet do not consolidate the financial statements for the company and its subsidiary undertaking under section 9.2 in FRS 102. Jewish Care is the sole Member of the Jewish Association for Mental Illness (Jami) and as such the Charity is consolidated into the accounts of Jewish Care.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

Structure, governance and management continued

f. Principal Risks and Uncertainties

The Board of Trustees is responsible for the management of the risks faced by the Charity. Risks are identified, assessed and controls established as appropriate. The principal risks and uncertainties faced by the organisation and their control measures in this year and in future years are:

Incidence of major fraud risk resulting in extreme financial/reputational damage. Risk control measures include authorisation procedures and segregation of duties, regular meetings with the Treasurer and reviews of monthly management accounts by senior staff and the Trustee board. Incidence of unforeseen events and/or Acts of God resulting in the ability to fundraise and the cancellation of events, for example the global pandemic, would be managed through introducing risk controls such as a more diverse fundraising mix including consideration of virtual activities and crowdfunding.

Over reliance on a small number of grant providers and key major donors. Risk control would be managed through diversification of income streams, increasing the number of applications to additional trusts and foundations and ensuring a strong focus on both acquisition and retention of all donors.

g. Public Benefit

The Trustees have considered the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 and have satisfied themselves that they have complied with their duty to have regard to the Public Benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission. The activities and achievement of Jami are outlined throughout this report and review, and fully demonstrate that the charity is providing public benefit. Jami’s services are almost entirely funded by voluntary donations which enable fees to be kept to a minimum. There is no geographic restriction to people using the services, however most are based in or around London, and Jewish communities living in these areas are those benefiting most from them.

h. Key Management Personnel

The Trustees consider the Chief Executive Officer and the senior leadership team the key personnel of the Charity in charge of directing, controlling, running and operating the Charity on a day to day basis. The Remunerations Committee is responsible for the appointments and salaries for roles over £50k (Full Time Equivalent) and key management personnel. Consideration is given to pay staff at a level where they are motivated to enhance the organisation and the quality of service in line with the Charity’s strategy. The total remuneration, benefits and pension paid to key management personnel in year was £300,699 (2018/19: £240,345). The Trustees are also considered key management personnel, none of whom are remunerated. The Trustees would like to thank the whole team of staff and volunteers for their hard work and commitment throughout the year. The team works tirelessly and closely with service users to enable the realisation of Jami’s aims.

i. Clinical Governance & Professional Advisory Group

The Trustees would like to express thanks to the members of the Clinical Governance Group for their work throughout the year. In addition to Clinical governance, the Group provides advice, guidance and consultation to aid the development of Jami’ s services.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

Objectives and Activities

Jami is established as a charity for the treatment, care, support, education, training and rehabilitation of Jewish people suffering from various forms of mental ill health and to provide help to relatives and carers.

– Jami promotes and enables recovery by providing services which educate, support & facilitate helping people with mental illness to achieve their goals.

Jami’s vision is a Jewish Community which accepts, acknowledges and understands mental illness. A community which is resilient and has the capacity and capability to be healthy. A community in which symptoms of mental illness are as recognisable as a heart attack and trigger equally appropriate First Aid response. A community in which Parity of Esteem is a reality and an environment which helps, not hinders, recovery.

Jami is committed to working alongside statutory services toward the provision of high-quality mental health care in the Jewish community.

Jami believes that:

People with mental ill health, like everyone else, have rights and choices. They should have the right to be treated as individuals and should be encouraged to take as active a part as possible in the decisions that may affect their lives according to their capability.

Those with mental health problems have the right to enjoy the same pleasures and manner of living as the rest of the community. These values are shared by everyone involved with Jami, staff and volunteers and this ethos is carried through all the services provided by Jami.

Jami provides culturally appropriate help of a high quality to people with severe and enduring mental health problems, their carers and families. Jami is the specialist provider of mental health services to people in our community who need them. Jami works with individuals, communities and organisations to help prevent mental illness from developing, improve early intervention and promote wellbeing.

Jami’s operations are continually reviewed to ensure that the provision of services is based on the needs of individual members and that those services are as effective and efficient as possible. The focus on need, together with Jami’s continued commitment to develop services which are based in service users’ own local communities, is more effective in assisting our members on their pathway to recovery and social inclusion – (Reference: Vision and Progress Social Inclusion and Mental health (2009) National Social Inclusion Programme).

A Single Mental Health Service for the Jewish Community

On 1[st] April 2013, by way of an Association Agreement, Jami and Jewish Care created a single mental health service for the Jewish community.

Under the Agreement, Jami continues to be run by its existing management and all former Jewish Care staff that worked in community-based mental health were transferred over to Jami under TUPE arrangements.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

A Single Mental Health Service for the Jewish Community (cont'd)

The stated aims of the single service are to:

• reduce the duplication of mental health services within the Jewish community

• provide the opportunity to have a single strategy for mental health services helping to identify what the community needs, address gaps in the service and to plan for a better service

• provide better service across a wider geographic area

• make better use of economies of scale

• share back office services such as finance and information technology to reduce costs.

Jewish Care maintains its existing level of funding for community-based mental health by way of a grant to Jami and it is hoped that the fundraising capability of the new single service will be significantly increased.

The Institute for Voluntary Action Research (IVAR) conducted a review of the creation of the single service in the Spring of 2014. IVAR’s concluding remarks were:

“Such processes require huge amounts of time, effort and commitment. To have any chance of succeeding, key people have to set aside anxieties and reservations in order to take a leap of faith. In this particular case, the process was driven by a shared vision that mental health services for the Jewish community could be enhanced and improved through the creation of a single service. This conviction helped staff and trustees to navigate their way through difficult and unpredictable waters. 2 years on, despite the inevitable niggles and gripes, those most closely involved with both Jewish Care and Jami can feel proud of what they have achieve, ‘a mental health service for the Jewish community which has a very bright future’.

Since this time, the organisation has continued to grow.

Achievements and Performance

During the 2019/20 year, Jami staff recorded 29,638 (2019: 27,603) separate provisions of service. This represents every service contact recorded, every hub attendance recorded, every duty call and every enquiry to 1,073 (2019: 1,279) individuals with hundreds more interactions within Head Room Café and Head Room Education.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

Recovery

We understand that everyone’s experience of mental illness is different and that what enables one person to recover their mental health could vary considerably from the next. Our professional staff include Social Workers, Occupational Therapists and Peer Support Workers. They work together with individuals to create a bespoke recovery plan tailored to their needs.

Mental health recovery doesn’t always refer to the process of complete recovery in the way we may recover from a physical health problem. For many people the concept of a mental health recovery is about staying in control of their lives rather than making a symptom free, clinical recovery.

Jami helps people put their recovery into action by providing support to build emotional resilience, in addition to managing the symptoms of ill health.

Jami is committed to delivering a recovery focussed service in line with national drivers and continues to work hard to communicate its recovery approach both with the organisation and to external agencies. We strive to embed the concept of mental health recovery in every part of the service from the Board to locality teams and front-line workers. Good progress is being made in delivering recovery-oriented services in many parts of Jami but this is not yet consistent throughout the organisation.

Jami believes it is possible for someone to regain a meaningful life despite severe mental illness.

Mental health recovery is on the agenda for every team meeting and individual supervision session and is reflected in the programmes offered in the 4 localities centres. Systems are under constant review to ensure that recovery values and principles are reflected throughout operations. Jami’s Recovery Action Group (RAG) is tasked with implementing the Recovery Strategy. Particular areas of focus this year have been:

• Service user involvement strategy

• Recruitment and management of service user representatives

• Quality Assurance across all services

Service and Outcome Monitoring

Jami’s existing contact management system, Apricot (a cloud-based monitoring system) was installed into all resources in January 2013. This has allowed us to record activity in all 4 resources and across all services since the creation of the single service in April 2013. From January 2019 we have set up quarterly sessions for support and training with Gallery Partnership to ensure high quality and effective reporting with Apricot.

We evaluate our existing work with service users through Apricot. This enables us to see how many people are using the service, how we are supporting them and the range of positive outcomes achieved by our clients with our guidance and support. We also seek direct feedback via surveys from clients, employers, educators and those providing work placements.

We ask clients to complete an I.ROC (Individual Recovery Outcomes Counter) (Adults) or Y.ROC (Youth Recovery Outcomes Counter (16+) questionnaire at their initial assessment and at regular intervals thereafter to allow us to measure the improvement in their wellbeing as a result of the increase in their vocational activity. This evidence has allowed us to concentrate our resources on the services deemed most useful, namely advice and support in relation to maintaining and obtaining paid employment.

The I.ROC digital platform has made evaluation and reporting more straightforward. The I.ROC Assessment Team is working well. Staff are rotating through so that everyone has experience of supporting initial assessments. The Y.ROC digital platform is expected in April 2021, this will enable enhanced reporting on our young adults service.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

Quality Assurance

In October 2013, Jami began to use PQASSO, a cloud-based quality assurance tool developed by the Charities Evaluations Services in 1997. PQASSO helps voluntary organisations to look at what they do, to identify those areas where they are doing well and those where they could do better, and to decide what improvements are needed. Areas covered include governance, planning, leadership and management, managing people, managing money and outcomes and impact.

Following a governance review and rigorous process of recruiting new trustees, we have ambitious plans to further invest in monitoring the impact of our work. A Head of Quality and Impact was therefore recruited in Autumn 2020 and will be reviewing PQASSO in 2021.

Locality Services

Jami has 4 locality hubs and 2 social enterprise hubs:

Locality Hubs

• Martin B Cohen Centre (Edgware)

• Elliott Simmons Centre (Leila’s House, Finchley)

• Mitkadem (Redbridge)

• Hackney Hub (Stoke Newington)

Social Enterprise Hubs

• Head Room Café (Golders Green)

• Borehamwood warehouse

• Pop Up (temporary) Head Room Shop (Mill Hill)

Jami remains committed to the provision of centres which offer a safe, welcoming environment that supports people back to planning and engaging with their lives following an acute episode of mental ill health. The 4 Jami locality hubs promote meaningful lives and enhance the sense of hope that is integral to recovery. For people with severe and enduring mental ill health the centres provide meaningful activity, structure, routine, social engagement and support. Each hub has its own unique programmes which reflects the needs and identifies goals of the people who use it.

Peer Support

We have continued to see Peer Support go from strength to strength. We now have Peer Support Workers in each of our 4 locality hubs, a Peer Support Worker in our Employment and Vocational support service and also in our Carer and Family Support team.

Peer Support is delivered by people who have lived experience of mental ill health. They use their own experience to support and empower others along their recovery path. Peer Support Workers are powerful role models and provide evidence that recovery from mental ill health is possible. Peer Support involves building positive and supportive relationships with clients to enable them to develop their own support plans, aspirations and goals. The structure of the peer support service encompasses both closed and open groups, as well as 1:1 support.

Volunteers

There are currently over 220 active volunteers supporting Jami. Volunteers play a vital role in the organisation and are present at each of Jami’s 4 hubs and 2 social enterprise hubs.

Individual supervision takes place for each volunteer with the Volunteer and Pastoral Coordinator and their line manager. The Jami prospectus of courses is available for our volunteers to attend with many courses based on areas for which they have requested training during the annual reviews, including Mental Health First Aid, resilience, dealing with vulnerable people and how to facilitate groups.

Volunteering at Jami continues to thrive with an increase in both numbers of volunteers to over 200 and also their impact on the organisation. All Jami services have benefited from committed and enthusiastic volunteers who have contributed to innovation and supporting service users particularly in such areas as the four hubs, the carers' service, and social enterprise.

Over 160 annual reviews with volunteers have now taken place. A very successful annual celebration buffet dinner in November and volunteer voices' tea party in June were the highlights of the volunteer social calendar. Specifically arranged induction sessions were complemented by education service training sessions for volunteers and received very positive feedback.

Highlights of the Jewish year at Jami were the 3 sedarim at Edgware, Finchley and Redbridge, introduction to Judaism sessions for new staff, students and volunteers, high holy day services at Finchley, the everpopular monthly Friday night services and meals at Edgware and twice annually at Redbridge, a tea party in Golders Green for Shavuot, the megillah reading and Menorah lighting at Purim and Chanukah together with well attended and joyous parties at Edgware, Hackney and Redbridge.

Vocational Support

Jami advocate that a key part of recovery and independence involves maintaining employment, volunteering, training or education. This is not only for financial benefit, but also for social identity, social contact, a way of structuring their time, routine and developing a sense of personal achievement.

Our Vocational Support team offers services including skills assessment, support with accessing different types of vocational activity, developing a ‘work ready’ routine, support to maintain employment and advice on disclosure of mental health issues in the workplace.

The assessment process looks at an individuals’ vocational needs and any support that maybe required to achieve this so we can offer a tailored service to support them to engage or return to vocational activities.

37 individuals received support from the Vocational Service during the year ending 31st March 2020. We thank the warehouse owners, the Mammon family, for their ongoing support.

Young Adults Service

Our newly established Young Adults Service aims to provide a holistic, goal orientated support service for young people aged 16-25 to help them manage their mental health, to achieve their individual goals and independence in daily activities.

– Jami supported 79 16 25-year-olds during the year ending 31st March 2020.

On referral to the Young Adults Service, a Y.ROC assessment is performed, to identify areas of needs, which, upon acceptance into the service, is reviewed every 3 months. Support is offered by way of regular contact, weekly, fortnightly, monthly according to need, presently telephone contact, zoom or email, as preferred by the young adult.

We envisage the service evolving over time according to the needs of our young community, working in partnership with any relevant organisations.

Carer and Family Support

Carer and Family support is offered through individual appointments, peer support and educational seminars, advocacy and group support. We continue to offer support on a 1:1 basis as well as group settings as it has become apparent that carers welcome 1:1 support, information and advice at times of crisis. We are able to work with carers individually and we also offer family meetings.

The Carer and Family Support Team consists of the Carer Service Coordinator, Peer Carer Support worker and 7 volunteers. The volunteers are a vital part of the service. They carry a caseload and offer telephone support, 1:1 support and group support.

The team are currently working with over 100 carers and received over 100 new carer referrals during the year. We respond to carer referrals within 3 days and have never had to hold a waiting list.

In addition to the three Peer-led carer groups, newly dev eloped groups include a Men’s Peer Carer Group and a Young Parent Carer Group.

The service also has 4 facilitated Carers groups included Add Anon which supports carers affected by addiction.

The service works closely across all services in Jami and we also have strong links with partner agencies.

Education and Awareness

The Jami Head Room Education and Awareness team runs a comprehensive programme of seminars, events and training courses to educate the whole community about mental health and wellbeing. Our range of Mental Health training products are created to reflect communal need to better equip both Jewish third sector organisations, synagogue communities and individuals to be able to respond effectively to mental ill health and build resilience. Alongside our bespoke products we continue to provide the standardised Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training to add value to our well-regarded in-house portfolio of training courses and facilitated groups, training 380 people in MHFA this year. In 2019/20, we delivered 372 hours of training to a mixture of over 60 schools, higher education groups, synagogues and Jewish third sector organisations. Across all these events there were 1,567 attendances.

We run courses to support people on their recovery journey working with a cohort of sessional Peer Trainers as part of the Head Room team. They co-create our Head Room in the Hub programme and lead on our Café Culture programme: Community Conversations and Open Mic nights which are both thriving microcommunities within the wider Jami landscape. Café Culture provides much needed interactivity and connection and celebrates the human spirit enabling a space both for reflection, vulnerability and celebration. In 2019/20 there was a 61% increase in attendances at our Café Culture events compared with the previous year, with 875 attendance across 108 hours of events.

• The Education Manager co-ordinates the Emergency Response Initiative Consortium (https://jamiuk.org/get support/what-we-do/eric/) a collective of charities working together to better enable the Jewish community to respond effectively in cases of a suicide in a school and share greater understanding of suicide prevention through a postvention approach.

Across all our work combined, we had 2,635 attendances, across 205 events, totalling 573 hours of delivery. We also generated £8,320 income. The total amount of time that all participants spent getting training and education from us in 2019/20 was 7,286 hours.

Physical Health

The role of Fitness Coordinator recognises the vital link between physical and mental health. Both group and 1:1 work is offered. Sessions on stress management, diet and maintaining physical health and wellbeing are available at all 4 of Jami’s hubs with over 300 service users participating in physical fitness se ssions.

Building resources

Jami’s Kadimah service settled into their new home in the Hackney Hub providing a more permanent and settled location.

Jami is very grateful to IDS for its collaborative approach and looks forward to ongoing collaboration on projects.

The social enterprise team and volunteers spent time restoring some of the original features at the Mill Hill property and ensuring that appropriate electrics and plumbing were in place. In the autumn, the property began to showcase and offer upcycl ed products produced by Jami’s Social Enterprise division for sale staffed primarily by a rota of volunteers. Thanks are due to the landlord Mr J Miller for his ongoing commitment and support to Jami.

Social Enterprise / Head Room Café

Jami charity derives benefit from Jami Sales & Services Limited in the form of utilisation of the Head Room café space for the provision of activities benefiting service users and clients along with Jami service users, referred by the Vocational Support team at Jami charity, who undertake a range of duties at the warehouse to support their skills development, confidence building and ultimate return to work where appropriate. Social enterprise activities have been significantly impacted by the closure of the café and warehouse due to the Covid-19 pandemic. With the majority of staff being furloughed from April 2020 and two staff resignations within the Social Enterprise a new business plan to reopen resources and drive commercial recovery is being put into place.

The financial activities of Jami Sales & Services Limited are monitored and overseen by the Trustees. JSAS activities and operations are a means of delivery of Jami’s charitable services objectives. Consequently, a grant is made by Jami to Jami Sales & Services Limited to cover the operational costs incurred by Jami Sales & Services Limited in providing services and resources for Jami. The oversight by Jami trustees ensures that the grant is at an appropriate level.

Fundraising Activities

Fundraising approach and performance

The charity undertakes fundraising activity to its supporters via direct mail, fundraising events, challenge event, gala dinners and email in line with the Fundraising Code of Practice set by the Fundraising Regulator. No telephone appeals are undertaken.

The charity is registered with the Fundraising Regulator. There have been no complaints received by the charity in respect of its fundraising activities (2018/2019: no complaints received).

The charity is registered with the Fundraising Preference Service (FPS). Data is cleaned at least every 2 years against standard industry updates such as deceased registers and Royal Mail to ensure supporter information is up to date. Jami also runs its data against the Telephone Preference Service to ensure supporter preferences are up to date.

On 25 May 2018 the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into force to make data privacy consistent across Europe, superseding the UK’s Data Protection Act 1998. Jami, after careful consideration, took the view that utilising Legitimate Interest for fundraising and marketing purposes to our current supporters gave the flexibility needed to continue all marketing activities whilst balancing the interests and rights of the individual and the impact upon them. Our supporters, volunteers and learners were informed of the changes via a special version of Headlines, our twice annual newsletter, in June. All Jami’s consent wording online and in print was updated and GDPR preferences were recorded onto ThankQ our fundraising database. The Privacy Policy was further updated in July 2020.

Jami operates a combined Fundraising and Marketing/Communications Dept. The fundraising element is split into the following sections: Major Donors & Trusts; Events; Community and an administrator who manages the database and logs all donations.

Third party fundraisers are not employed on the charity’s behalf. In the case of events organised by committees, such committees are monitored by appropriate staff members.

PR, Brand Awareness & Marketing

Jami continues to secure coverage in the Jewish press and are regularly asked for comment as the official voice for mental health in our community. Increasingly, we are being asked for speakers and articles to be provided within community settings and are being selected as recipients for synagogue High Holy Day appeals.

Events

Jami Dinner 2020

On Thursday 23rd January 2020, Jami’s annual dinner was held at Alexandra Palace Theatre. The dinner, marking Jami’s 30th anniversary, was attended by 340 guests and raised over £330,000 for the mental health charity.

During the evening guests heard the Rt Hon Sir Brian Leveson speak about his remarkable legal career, the impact the criminal justice system has on the mental welfare of those who journey through it, and how fortunate the Jewish community is to have an organisation dedicated to providing life-changing services to resolve the social care issues resulting from mental illness.

Mental Health Awareness Shabbat 2020

Jami’s fourth annual Mental Health Awareness Shabbat continues to deliver on its commitment to raise awareness of mental health in the Jewish community.

This year’s Shabbat, held on 31st January 2020 and 1st February 2 020, saw over 150 communities, organisations and individuals throughout the UK, US and Israel deliver activities, speakers, sermons and discussion groups on the importance of mental health. The most brave were the people who stood up and shared their own experience of mental illness and the impact it has had on themselves and their loved ones.

The Mental Health Awareness Shabbat falls annually on Shabbat “Bo”, during which the weekly Torah portion about the Plague of Darkness is read. The description of this plague has particular resonance with mental illness – the darkness being so intense that people ‘couldn’t move from their position’.

This year also saw the launch of a collaboration with Maccabi GB, whereby all Maccabi affiliated football league and club matches held on Sunday 2nd February 2020 began with a 1-minute delay, allowing players, managers and spectators to think about their own mental health and wellbeing, or how they can support other people.

Direct Marketing (Appeals)

Pesach Appeal 2019

The Pesach appeal raised over £55,000. This appeal used the case study of Matt whose extreme anxiety led to social isolation and put his employment at risk. Following referral to Jami, Matt joined a discussion group at Jami’s Head Room Café, interacting with others in a social setting. Jami’s expert employment team also helped Matt to speak to his manager about what support he would need to return to work.

Rosh Hashanah Appeal 2019

The Rosh Hashanah Appeal 2019 told the narrative of Sharon whose confidence was shattered after an accident. Routine actions became a nightmare. Making a phone call, cleaning her flat and participating in conversations became impossible due to her debilitating anxiety and panic attacks, which led to her becoming reliant on her aging parents and unable to work. Following support from Jami, Sharon is now participating in many Jami activities and leads her own Creative Writing group. The appeal was written as a personal letter from the Chief Executive and raised almost £80,000.

Headlines Newsletter

The biannual newsletter Headlines provides updates to our supporters to keep them informed of the impact of their donations. The newsletter also has features on other areas of Jami service provision to further inform our supporters of our work as well as news items. Last year this was sent out primarily via email, but we successfully tested the impact of sending it out via post and will continue to send out a printed version in future years.

Future Plans

Fundraising and Marketing

Trusts and Major Giving

The Fundraising and Marketing team continue to develop stronger relationships with existing trust and grant providers. Effective relationship management and research resulted in successfully securing a number of new grants from new providers across the financial year. Investment in this area of fundraising remains key and another staff member was recruited to work on the trust and major giving portfolio in November 2019. Future plans include development of a more defined prospecting approach for major donors in order to better provide bespoke information on key projects. This will include development of a Major Donor journey to improve communications.

General Donations

A successful migration to Raisers Edge NXT, a new cloud-based customer relationship management database was completed after a six-month long project in November 2019. This enables more accurate analysis of donor behaviour and more effective communication with our supporters. Further investment in the development of our Marketing and Communications was enabled with the recruitment of an additional Fundraising & Marketing Executive in January 2020. We plan to further develop key communications to all donors with a more segmented approach to postal communications and an increased level of emailed communications to ensure supporters remain informed and engaged on developments.

Future Plans (cont'd)

Fundraising and Marketing (cont'd) Website, Digital Content, Social Media

The recruitment of a Digital marketing lead in October 2019 has led to more effective use of social media and continues to drive the conversation and increase engagement with mental health across social networks including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn. We have seen increased reach and steady growth in the number of followers across all channels. After initial launch of the new website last year, significant further improvements to content and navigation were completed this year. Further additions are planned to grow our online presence include more collaborations with other organisations and writing blogs and increased video content on areas of topical interest at key times across the year.

Fundraising Outlook

The pandemic will likely have significant impact on all organisations reliant on voluntary income.

Trustees approved a revised budget which uses reserves to meet a potential shortfall caused by the cost of additional resources required to meet the demands of the pandemic. However, whilst voluntary income is generally predicted to be adversely affected by the economic impact of the pandemic, mental health is recognised as being a more significant cause than ever before. As a result, Jami’s challenge will be to use the higher profile of mental health to maintain or grow voluntary income.

We expect that many of the additional grants we were able to apply for during the pandemic are likely to cease in the near future and there remains a risk that adverse market conditions will impact large trus ts’ investments resulting in smaller distributions to grantees. This may be mitigated by a gradual return to a wider fundraising mix as physical events and challenges recommence.

Future Strategy: Transforming the Landscape

Jami’s continued focus on recovery means we are committed to helping clients to fulfil their individual potential, maximise their self-esteem and progress along their own unique recovery path. We will continue to offer and expand our range of services that provide practical, emotional and social support to those experiencing mental ill health and their carers.

The recent rise in the profile of mental health and the reduction in stigma are long overdue and very welcome. The resulting impact on demand for meaningful mental health services will be immense. Protecting our mental health and supporting people experiencing mental illness should be everyone’s business and is the business of all services offering social care.

Jami recognises that prevention and early intervention are key indicators of good mental health and recovery. Prevention begins within our families, schools, communal organisations and workplaces. We therefore need to transform the mental health landscape of the Jewish community. This transformation will entail building capacity and capability in all communal organisations to enable the community to support all of its constituents, regardless of their mental health.

Jami’s challenge over the next 5 years is to balance the need to transform the community with the need to provide direct service interventions. The “transformation” has a public health/preventative focus which will in time hopefully reduce the demand for direct services from Jami.

Jami’s Future Plans:

Jami recognises that early intervention and prevention are key indicators of good mental health and recovery. Prevention begins within our families, schools, communal organisations and workplaces. We therefore need to transform the mental health landscape of the Jewish community to:

• Build healthy communities which provide the levels of social support and social inclusion necessary to enhance emotional wellbeing.

• Develop capacity for emotional resilience amongst our children and young people, the ability to cope or adapt to stressful situations.

• Develop a community that responds quickly so that people are offered information and support at the point of concern, rather than waiting for a crisis.

• Continue Jami’s offer of core direct service interventions to those who need them.

Key plans for Jami over the next 5 years include:

• Head Room cafés on high streets in prominent Jewish areas.

• Transforming the Landscape - Educating more communal organisations (including charities, schools, synagogues, youth movements) and employers to be better equipped to deal with mental health; embedding Parity of Esteem (mental health to be as important as physical health) in organisational procedures and culture.

• Implementation of Jami Sales & Services Limited’s business plan

• Developing more sustainable income streams.

• • A comprehensive strategic review is being undertaken towards the end of 2020/21.

Jami’s Future Plans continued in light of Covid-19

As the Covid-19 pandemic continues to dominate the global landscape, the need to look after our mental health remains key. Whilst we wait for the vaccinations to be rolled out and some semblance of ‘normality’ to resume Jami continues to provide a lifeline to anyone in the Jewish UK community affected by poor mental health.

Since the pandemic commenced, Jami has witnessed a continued growth in the demand for our services in terms of both:

• a. an increased level of support required by existing service users in response to the heightened anxiety, isolation and risk that lockdown has caused (55% increase in hours of support and 29% increase in number of people being supported since lockdown); and

• b. the demand of new referrals for individuals whose mental health has deteriorated during the Covid19 pandemic with:

• 100% of Jami’s new referrals are all Covid -19 related;

• a 110% increase in referrals from July 2020 to August 2020 alone; and

• a 65% increase in all enquiries between July-October 2020 as compared with those received March-June 2020.

With the first imposed lockdown back in March 2020, Jami was sadly forced to close its Head Room Café and four Community Hubs. Whilst we were able to reopen Head Room Café for a short period back in October, we were sadly required to close our doors once more when the second lockdown was announced in November. Whilst Jami is keen to reopen its ‘physical doors’, the reaction from our service users to the online support has been so positive that we do not plan to simply automatically revert to our pre-Covid services once full lockdown has been lifted but instead look likely to run virtual and face to face services concurrently going forwards.

Jami’s immediate focus following lockdown was to ensure that its most vu lnerable existing service users and their families had somewhere to turn to for vital social interaction and essential practical and emotional support. Electronic tablets had been provided to service users by Jami with further people receiving 1:1 IT support; 1,195 meals and doorstep chats have been delivered to 43 individuals and 1,954 hours of telephone support and 397 hours of 1:1 video conferencing were provided between March- August 2020. Jami’s Community Hub Online and Head Room Online programmes have been warmly received with volunteers, staff and service users having spent around 6,350 hours together online since March 2020 (Community Hub Online) and 1,521 people attending Head Room Online sessions.

Jami is now looking towards the future and the need for the provision of longer-term mental health support post lockdown and beyond which can be provided to the wider Jewish UK community. To this end, Jami has launched a number of new exciting community wide initiatives including:

• Compeer – a new more formalised befriending programme

• Kooth Student and Qwell - online mental health platform, to provide Jewish students and adults across the UK access to free, safe, online mental health counselling and support through bespoke branded portal on Jami’s website

• Shout – teaming up with Shout, a 24/7 UK text messaging service for times when people feel they need immediate support.

THE JEWISH ASSOCIATION FOR MENTAL ILLNESS (A company limited by guarantee) TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continued) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

Financial Review

We undertake a range of services to fulfil our charitable mission to transform the landscape for mental health in our community and provide specialist mental health services. These services are delivered via our four community hubs (Edgware, Finchley, Hackney, Redbridge), Head Room Cafe and social enterprise Warehouse. In the year ending March 2020, charitable activity costs were lower than budgeted as a result of the prudent management of resources and lower than anticipated expenditure. Other charitable activity costs reflect the cost of service delivery at the locality resources listed on page 7. Regular reviews of the charity’s finances are undertaken throughout the year. The Balance Sheet at 31st March 2020 shows reserves of £3,222,960 (2019: £2,965,887) of which the majority is represented by cash at £2,051,423 (2019: £1,601,631). This meets the criteria of the trustees of Jami to attempt to maintain sufficient cash reserves to meet 6 months of budgeted expenditure.

Reserves policy

The Trustee’s policy for free reserves when combined with restricted funds donated for specific service provisions, is to set a target of 6 months projected expenditure (approximately £1.5m). Jami considers the current level of reserves sufficient to meet its needs.

Restricted funds	£35,417	£11,202
Total funds	£3,222,960	£2,965,887

* This represents in the main the property at 55 Christchurch Avenue

Investment policy

The Trustees’ investment powers are governed by the Memorandum and Articles of Association, which permit the charity’s funds to be invested in a wide range of securities and assets. As none of the funds are permanently endowed, the Board’s investment policy is to aim for safety, commensurate with planned spending needs from time to time. Accordingly, funds are held in cash balances and not invested. The Trustees will continue to manage the chari ty’s investments in conformity with this policy and the governing document. Note 18 to the financial statements set out an analysis of the assets attributable to the various funds. These assets are deemed sufficient to meet the charity’s activities on a fu nd by fund basis.

Subsidiary

The charity has a wholly owned subsidiary which is incorporated in the United Kingdom - Jami Sales & Services Limited which originally operated solely as a retail charity shop. The subsidiary made a profit/loss in the year ended 31 March 2020 of NIL (2018/19) (NIL).During the course of the year, the coffee shop in Golders Green has continued to operate under the full control of the subsidiary along with the sale of donated goods at the coffee shop. The eBay operation continued at the Borehamwood warehouse. A new venture involving the sale of upcycled goods operated from a high street premises in Mill Hill. All retail operations have been significantly impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Going Concern

The Trustees consider there are no material uncertainties about the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The review of our financial position, reserves levels and future plans gives Trustees confidence the charity remains a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of the accounts, please also refer to the assessment of the going concern in the accounting policies page 27.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of The Jewish Association for Mental Illness

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of The Jewish Association for Mental Illness (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 March 2020 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

• give a true and fair view of t he state of the charitable company’s affairs as at 31 March 2020 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;

• have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and

• have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. O ur responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where:

• the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate; or

• the trustees have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the charitab le company’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Other information

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of The Jewish Association for Mental Illness cont’d

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

• the information given in the Trustees’ Report, which includes the Directors’ Report and the Strategic Report prepared for the purposes of company law, for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and

• the Dir ectors’ Report and the Strategic Report included within the Trustees’ Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Directors’ Report or the Strategic Report included within the Trustees’ Report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

• adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or

• the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or

• certain disclosures of trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or

• we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or

• the Trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies’ regime and take advantage of the small companies’ exemption from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report or in preparing the Trustees’ Report .

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities set out on page 20 the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In pr eparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

THE JEWISH ASSOCIATION FOR MENTAL ILLNESS

(A company limited by guarantee)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

General information

Jami is a charitable company registered in England (Co Reg No. 02618170) limited by guarantee and not having a share capital. It is a registered Charity (Charity Reg No.1003345) with its registered office at Leila’s House, 55 Christchurch Avenue, London, N12 0DG and is not liable to direct UK taxation on its charitable activities.

Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

The Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) and Balance Sheet do not consolidate the financial statements for the company and its subsidiary undertaking under FRS102, as Jewish Care is the sole Member of the Jewish Association for Mental Illness (JAMI). The Charity is consolidated into the accounts of Jewish Care.

Jami meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, both the functional and presentational currency of the company. Financial values are rounded to the nearest whole pound.

Preparation of accounts on a going concern basis

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The going concern assessment requirements mean that the trustees are obliged to take into account all available information about the future, for at least, but not limited to, the period of 12 months from the date the accounts are approved. In accordance with these requirements and taking into account the challenges of financial forecasting in the current circumstances and the resilience of the charity to the risks identified, the board is satisfied that reasonable financial assumptions have been incorporated in financial projections and sensitivity analysis for the period subsequent to the year end and until March 2022, including the estimated net impact of the coronavirus pandemic on Jam i’s resources. The company has also received a letter of continued financial support from its immediate parent charity, Jewish Care. The board considers that mitigating actions would be effective and sufficient to ensure the Jami’s continued viability. For these reasons and based on the assessment undertaken, the board confirms it has a reasonable expectation that Jami will be able to continue in operation and meet its liabilities as they fall due over the period of the assessment to the end of March 2022 and that reserves and cash remain at acceptable levels throughout the period of assessment.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities where there is entitlement to income, it is probable that income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. Income is deferred when a performance condition to entitlement has not been made.

Donations and legacies income includes donations and gifts in wills which are recognised where there is entitlement, probability of receipt and the amount of the gift is measurable.

Income from donations, covenants and gift aid includes receipts from fundraising events. Donations together with the resulting tax credit from gift aid, is credited directly to the Statement of Financial Activities on an accrual basis. Donations and all other receipts (including capital receipts) from fundraising are reported gross and the related fundraising costs are reported in raising funds.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Income cont'd

Pecuniary legacies are accrued and credited directly to the Statement of Financial Activities when the value becomes known with certainty. Legacies are recognised on a receivable basis, when the conditions of entitlement, probability and measurement are met. For residuary and reversionary legacies, entitlement is established in the year that the Charity has been notified of an impending distribution. Where a legacy is received or notified as receivable (by the personal representatives) after the accounting year end, but it is clear that a legacy had been agreed by the personal representatives prior to the year end (hence providing evidence of a condition that existed at the balance sheet date) it is accrued in the Statement of Financial Activities and the Balance Sheet.

Income from charitable activities is recognised as earned as the related services are provided, grant income is accounted for in the Statement of Financial Activities when the entitlement to the income becomes unconditional.

Income from other trading activities is recognised as earned when order fulfilment has been completed.

Donated Services and Facilities

Donated services and facilities are only included in these accounts at the value to the Charity where this can be accurately and reliably quantified. The value of this contribution, where quantifiable has been reflected in these accounts. The majority of the Charity's donated services represent the contribution of many hundreds of hours by JAMI's unpaid volunteers, this has not been reflected in these accounts. The SORP does not permit the accounting for such contributions due to the inherent uncertainty in applying an accurate and reliable financial measurement in accordance with the SORP, further details of the contribution of volunteers is included in the Tru stee’s Report.

Interest and Dividends Receivable

Investment income is recognised on a receivable basis and the amounts can be measured reliably.

Interest on funds on deposits is included when receivable upon notification by the relevant banking institutions.

Expenditure

All expenditure is accounted for on an accrual basis and has been included under expense categories that aggregate all costs for allocation to activities. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular activities they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of the resources.

Fundraising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of disseminating information in support of the charitable activities. Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the company and include project management carried out at Headquarters.

The support costs which include governance costs are shown in note 7 support the whole of the charitable activities. Support costs are allocated to the charitable expenditure headings on a full time equivalent basis that is consistent with the use of these resources. Support costs include human resources, information technology, property, finance and governance.

Grants are recognised in the period in which they are payable. Grants are payable in the furtherance of the charity's objects and are attributed in the related classification heading in the SOFA namely unrestricted charitable activities.

Operating Leases

The Charity classifies the lease of property, buses and printing equipment as operating leases, the title of the property, buses and printing equipment remains with the relevant lessors with the rental charges applicable to operating leases charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Pension Schemes

Jami operates a defined contribution scheme for the benefit of its employees. The assets of the scheme are held independently from those of Jewish Care in an independently administered fund. The pensions cost charged in the financial statements represent the contributions payable during the year.

Jewish Care also operated a defined benefit pension scheme of which some Jami employees are members – the Jewish Care Pension Scheme, a defined benefit scheme for the benefit of the employees; the scheme was closed to new entrants on the 1 February 2006 and closed to future benefit accrual as at the 31 March 2011. The assets of the scheme are administered by the Jewish Care Pension Scheme Trustees in a fund separate from that of the Charity. The Pension Scheme has been accounted for in accordance with FRS 102. Please refer to note 28 of the Jewish Care statutory accounts for further information.

Short term benefits

Short term benefits, including holiday pay, are recognised as an expense in the period in which the service is received.

Employee termination benefits

Termination benefits are accounted for on an accrual basis and in line with FRS 102.

Financial Instruments

The charity operates basic financial instruments in terms of its assets and liabilities.

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due for the provision of services delivered. Prepayments are recognised at the prepaid amount.

Cash at Bank and in Hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and deposits with a short term maturity of three months or less from the date of opening the deposit account.

Creditors

Creditors are recognised where the Charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured reliably. Amounts are recognised at their settlement amount.

Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets (excluding freehold land) are stated at cost less depreciation. Tangible fixed assets over £2,500 are capitalised. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:

Freehold Property - 2% straight line Improvements to leasehold property - straight line over the lease period Equipment - 100% straight line Motor Vehicles - 25% reducing balance

Fund Accounting

Jami maintains various types of funds as follows:

Restricted Funds

Restricted funds represent donations and legacies received which are allocated by the donor to a specific project. The restrictions are binding on the Trustees of the Charity.

Unrestricted Funds

General funds are funds that are expendable at the discretion of the Trustees in the furtherance of the objects of Jewish Care. Such funds may be held in order to fund both working capital and capital investment.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Fund Accounting (cont'd)

Designated Funds

Designated funds represents funds which are unrestricted but the Trustees have designated them for a specific purpose to further the objectives of Jami, the only designated fund is the fixed asset fund which represents the value of unrestricted tangible fixed assets.

Critical accounting judgements and estimates

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of the amount, events or actions, actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates. The Trustees consider the following items to be areas subject to estimation and judgement.

Donations in kind

The value of the contribution of the many hundreds of hours donated by JAMI's unpaid volunteers has not been reflected in these accounts. The SORP does not permit the accounting for such contributions due to the inherent uncertainty in applying an accurate and reliable financial measurement in accordance with the SORP.

Depreciation

The useful economic lives of tangible fixed assets are based on management’s judgement and experience. When management identifies that actual useful economic lives differ materially from the estimates used to calculate depreciation, that charge is adjusted retrospectively. As tangible fixed assets are not significant, variances between actual and estimated useful economic lives will not have a material impact on the operating results. Historically no changes have been required.
