Leeds Mind
Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2021
The Trustees are pleased to present their annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021, the annual report is also prepared to meet the requirements for a Directors’ report and Financial Statements for Companies Act purposes.
The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Articles of Association and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their Financial Statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019).
Reference and Administrative Details
The Charity Information page forms part of this report.
Structure, Governance and Management
Leeds Mind was founded in 1972. The company is incorporated under The Companies Act as a company limited by guarantee and is governed by a memorandum and articles of association which outline the objects and powers of the company. The company is a registered charity and operates as a non-profit making organisation.
As a company limited by guarantee Leeds Mind has no share capital. Leeds Mind is affiliated to Mind - The National Association for Mental Health (NAMH). Mind assures the organisational quality of the network by using the robust quality assurance framework, the Mind Quality Mark. Leeds Mind was assessed against this Quality Mark in March 2018 and the review team found that we had met the requirements in all twenty four of the standards. There is now an annual self-assessment against these standards to ensure that all the quality markers are kept up to date. The next full assessment will be in Autumn 2022.
All Directors of the company are also Trustees of the charity and there are no other Trustees. The Trustees who served during the period under review are set out on page 1. Directors and Trustees of the charity are appointed in accordance with the articles of association. Trustees retire at the end of their tenure which is for an initial period of three years at the Annual General Meeting and are eligible for a further two re-elections.
The Board of Trustees, the governing body of the organisation, is composed of up to 18 elected members who are both Trustees of the charity and Directors of the company, there are currently eleven Trustees. The Board meets quarterly and the senior leadership team attend the meetings for accountability and reporting purposes. There are four committees of the Board which meet quarterly throughout the year and they are responsible for Finance, Quality and Performance, People Development and Business Development. A Remuneration Committee meets annually to review the salaries of the senior leadership team.
The Board generally seeks to recruit members who, as well as having the required skills for the governance of a charity, also have lived experience of mental health difficulties.
New Trustees are given an overview of the organisation by the Chief Executive. This covers: the duties of Board members, funding sources, the structure of the organisation, and plans for the current year and beyond. All new Trustees attend the Leeds Mind Induction and they are also offered a general tour of the different services and their premises. External training in the role of Trustees is provided as necessary.
The Board agrees the strategy and direction of Leeds Mind, and delegates the day-to-day management of the organisation and the provision of services to paid staff and volunteers who work under the authority of the Chief Executive and the senior leadership team.
All staff, including the senior leadership team are paid on the NJC pay scales. Pay levels are benchmarked regularly against other providers and similar roles in Leeds. Any changes to grading are agreed by the People Development committee of the Board.

Risk management
The Trustees have carried out ongoing assessments of the company’s activities setting out the major opportunities available to the company and the risks to which it is exposed. These risks are identified in the risk register and are risk assessed.
The principal risks and uncertainties faced by the charity at the time of writing are as follows:
-
The short term nature of some statutory funding which leads to uncertainty for both the staff and the organisation.
-
The reduction in voluntary income due to the COVID pandemic which has led to the cancellation or postponement of mass participation events.
-
Reputational risk associated with the Mind brand.
-
Non-compliance with safeguarding processes and procedures. There is a safeguarding practice group that meets regularly and a safeguarding expert has been co-opted onto the Quality and Performance committee as mitigations against this risk.
The Trustees have considered their responsibilities under legislation including health and safety, employment law and safeguarding. Systems and procedures have been implemented to manage specific risks that have been identified, including training for all appropriate persons as necessary. A risk appetite statement is agreed by the Trustees annually.
Objectives and Activities
Leeds Mind is a registered charity. The charity’s objectives as set out in the memorandum and articles of association are to promote the preservation of good mental health and to relieve the needs of people with mental health difficulties by working to increase the understanding of mental health. The area of benefit is Yorkshire.
The aims, objectives and activities of the charity are reviewed regularly, and achievements assessed. When reviewing these and in planning future activities, the Trustees have complied with the duty in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission. The current strategy runs for three years from 2019 to 2022. This strategy sets out three strategic objectives; we will make mental health everyone’s business, we will be person centred and responsive and we will thrive and innovate.
During the year to 31 March 2021 services were delivered in the following areas; Employment, Peer Support, Counselling, Befriending, Suicide Bereavement, Creative Arts, Social Prescribing and Leeds Mind is a strategic partner in the Leeds community based mental wellbeing service, Live Well Leeds.
The employment service, which operates under the name of WorkPlace Leeds, supports clients in finding paid work, training and education, volunteering and work placements. Support and advocacy are also provided to enable people in work to retain their jobs through the job retention service. An IT training suite helps people gain appropriate skills. These services are delivered in close collaboration with the Leeds clinical commissioning group, the Leeds and York Partnership NHS Trust and Leeds City Council and also supports wider partnership working across Leeds.
Our peer support service offers skills workshops and courses, support groups and activity groups to help people develop skills to better manage their mental health. They are delivered by a team of staff and volunteers who have their own lived experience of mental health difficulties. Peer support is delivered both in the community and in statutory settings.
We deliver the Leeds Suicide Bereavement Service and the West Yorkshire and Harrogate Suicide Bereavement Service, a postvention service hosted in partnership with Leeds Survivor Led Crisis Service. The service works with all people who have been affected by suicide in their lives.

Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2021 (continued)
Objectives and Activities (continued)
Our counselling service offers one to one support through an affordable route or through private practice. The private practice sessions fund the low cost sessions. The service is delivered by volunteer and paid counsellors all offering a person centred approach.
The befriending services offers a one to one service for people over fifty living in Leeds who are suffering with mental health difficulties.
The creative arts service is based at Inkwell; a safe, creative and accessible space where passion and skills entwine, challenging the stigma of mental health and celebrating the diversity of its participants. It seeks to engage, stimulate and absorb all abilities through creative activity. Users develop life skills such as teamwork and problem solving leading to increased confidence and improved wellbeing.
Social Prescribing is an alternative to a medical prescription and is a community based intervention. The services offer people the opportunity to improve and enhance their day to day lives by connecting them to groups and services within their local community. Leeds Mind is a lead delivery partner in the city wide service Linking Leeds.
Live Well Leeds is a community based wellbeing service in Leeds. The service is led by Touchstone with Leeds Mind as a strategic partner delivering one to one and group work across the City.
Performance reports are provided on a regular basis to the commissioners of the services, demonstrating how the funds are used to make a difference to people using our services. The focus is on recovery and community engagement, and there are regular reviews on the best tools to measure client journeys. The Outcome Star, Work Star and the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale (WEMWBS) are key measurement tools.
We continue to deliver high quality training to a wide range of employers. We deliver the accredited Mental Health First Aid and also bespoke courses to improve the mental health and wellbeing in the workplace.
We are an active member of Forums Central, the alliance of all voluntary sector organisations in Leeds. We are also the Mindful Employer lead for Leeds and coordinate an active network of employers in the City with the aim of fostering positive attitudes to mental health in the workplace.
Staff and volunteers
We would like to record our thanks to the highly skilled staff team who show so much dedication and commitment to their work and to Leeds Mind.
We are also very fortunate to work with around 80 excellent and committed volunteers, in addition to our Trustees. They are active all around the organisation but particularly so at Inkwell and in our Befriending, Peer Support, Counselling, Social Groups and Administration services. Without their continued support it would not be possible to continue to offer the same high level of service. We are proud to have achieved the Investors in Volunteers standard reflecting the support and opportunities we provide to our volunteers.
Leeds Mind has robust recruitment processes, including the use of Disclosure and Barring Service checks for staff and volunteers.
Applications for employment by disabled persons are always fully considered and it is a desirable characteristic for employees to have lived experience of mental health difficulties in all our job advertisements. In the event of an employee becoming disabled then every effort is made to ensure that their employment can continue through putting into place reasonable adjustments.

Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2021 (continued)
Staff and volunteers (continued)
Leeds Mind places considerable value on the involvement of employees and volunteers and has continued to keep them informed on matters affecting them and the organisation. This is achieved through a monthly newsletter, three whole organisation staff meetings each year, volunteer forums and monthly team meetings. A Wellbeing Group ensures and promotes the wellbeing of all our staff and volunteers. This has been particularly important during the last year when staff have been working remotely and more initiatives have been put in place to ensure staff and volunteers feel supported and part of Leeds Mind.
Achievements and performance
The last year has been dominated by the COVID pandemic. Our staff all moved to working remotely at the end of March 2020 and all our services changed from face to face support to virtual through the telephone and different media platforms including WhatsApp, Zoom and Teams. Demand for services was low at the start of the year in line with all mental health services but this has gradually increased during the year due to the impact the pandemic has had on mental health. We have offered both one to one and group support throughout the period with an increase in face to face support towards the end of the year. The Inkwell building including the café has remained closed throughout the period but the staff have been able to deliver art workshops in the community. The pandemic has also had a significant impact on our levels of voluntary income due to the cancellation of mass participation events. Despite the difficulties in the year our services have all remained open and we have supported over 3,000 people during the year and we have set up new services to respond to demand. We continue to be a key partner in the delivery of community mental health services in Leeds and provide input into various city wide strategic groups. Our clients overwhelmingly say that their experience of Leeds Mind is positive with the majority saying that they would recommend Leeds Mind to family and friends. Feedback from clients included ‘I feel as though someone is listening to me’, ‘I honestly don’t know where I would be without this help’ and ‘this is a brilliant service.’
This was the second year of the delivery of our strategic plan 2019 – 2022 and our business planning and priorities were based around our three strategic objectives:
1. We will make mental health everyone’s business – by raising awareness and reducing stigma around mental health and putting Leeds Mind at the heart of mental health in the City.
We have done this by :
-
- Working with over 3,000 people across the City.
-
Developing a marketing and communications strategy to streamline all our communications and ensure consistent messaging. We have increased our reach through social media and newspaper, tv and radio.
-
Holding a successful week long virtual Mindful Employer conference attended by 597 delegates and we had 322 new network members.
-
Developing our virtual workplace wellbeing offer through our Help for Employers package in response to the pandemic to deliver online training.
-
Delivering a Mentally Healthy Universities programme in conjunction with Leeds Beckett University.
2. We will be person centred and responsive – by putting people at the centre of our organisation, delivering high quality and inclusive support through understanding the needs of our communities.

-
Appointing a co-opted member of the Board with safeguarding expertise to enable us to continue to deliver excellent safeguarding practice.
3. We will thrive and innovate – by ensuring we are here for the long term through our forward thinking approach to services.
We have done this by:

Maximising our voluntary income through the pandemic through new and innovative campaigns and events.
-
Successfully applying for COVID relief funds to bridge the shortfall in voluntary income and enable us to continue delivering our self-commissioned services.
-
Developing a virtual offer across all our services.

-

Support for Leeds Mind
We are delighted that so many individuals and organisations have chosen to make Leeds Mind the beneficiary of their fundraising. The donations enable us to progress projects which otherwise we could not fund and in particular support our programme of activities led by volunteers.
Leeds Mind could not exist without funding from our commissioners, trusts, individual donors, companies and other associations and we are grateful all for their support for our vital work.
Fundraising
Section 162a of the Charities Act 2011 requires charities to make a statement regarding fundraising activities. Fundraising is defined as ‘soliciting or otherwise procuring money or other property for charitable purposes. All amounts raised through fundraising in the year are presented within ‘Donations and legacies’ which includes donations from individual supporters, corporate supporters and legacies. We are extremely grateful to everyone who has donated or participated in events.
Leeds Mind does not use professional fundraisers, commercial participators or third parties to fundraise on our behalf. The day to day management of all income generated is managed internally by the staff team who act under authority delegated by the Trustees.
The charity is voluntarily bound to be regulated by the Fundraising Regulator and pays the appropriate levy. Leeds Mind complies with the Code of Fundraising Practice set out by the Fundraising Regulator.
We have not received any complaints in relation to our fundraising practice for the year under review.

Financial Review
Total income for the year was £2,849,720 (2020: £2,841,324), an increase of 0.3%. Income from general donations has fallen from £425K to £223k due to the pandemic however we have had support from The Julia and Hans Rausing Trust (£55k), the Job Retention Scheme brought in income of £34k and we were assisted by a Leeds City Council small business COVID grant of £18k. Funding from National Mind totalled £115k.
Expenditure in the year decreased to £2,843,269 (2020: £2,978,708), a decrease of 4.5%. Fundraising costs were down by £13k and sub-contractor costs reduced by £60k due to the end of the Connect for Health contract. The restrictions of the pandemic also lead to reductions in staff travel / training of £33k, volunteer costs £8k, client activities £21k and office costs of £33k. IT costs however increased by £19k which related in part to setting all staff up to work from home.
Overall Leeds Mind shows a surplus for the year of £6,524 (2020: deficit £137,593) which is made up of £20,364 surplus in unrestricted funds and £13,840 deficit in restricted funds.
Principal Funding Sources
The main funding sources are the NHS in Leeds through the Clinical Commissioning Group and Public Health within Leeds City Council (LCC). Leeds Mind works closely with its commissioners and is grateful for their continuing support in a very difficult financial climate.
Fixed Assets and Investments
The movements in fixed assets during the year are set out in note 10 to the financial statements. The Trustees have agreed that temporarily surplus funds should be invested in short term low-risk accounts with the highest possible rates of interest in the current climate. All investments are held in cash and there are no long term investments (over 12 months). Cash balances are reviewed by the Finance Committee regularly.
Reserves Policy
Leeds Mind maintains an unrestricted cash reserve to cover any potential funding shortfall between the costs identified in the annual budget and the corresponding fundraising target for the year, the potential costs of staff notice and redundancy for a majority of staffing, the costs of leases on equipment, and any other short-term liabilities.
For 2020-21 the unrestricted reserves requirement is calculated as around £622k, with £643k being held at 31 March 2021. Leeds Mind holds a designated reserve for ‘inward investment’ created by the Trustees to fund pilot projects or to continue projects where a gap in funding occurs.
In the event of closedown, Leeds Mind would cover all other closedown costs through liquidation of fixed assets in particular the Clarence House and De Lacey House buildings. This is expected to realise sufficient cash to cover all remaining liabilities.
Leeds Mind maintains sufficient cash at the bank to cover unrestricted reserves, restricted funds and deferred credit liabilities.

Plans for the Future
Next year is the last year of our strategic plan. We have held planning sessions with all the services and with the trustees which will inform the business plan.
The COVID-19 pandemic is still very much with us and this has delayed some of the workstreams we had hoped to start during this financial year into 2021/22. We are still feeling the impact on our voluntary income and this has been reflected in the budgets. It is important that we take some of the positives from the last year to inform future working practice for example a hybrid way of working with our clients and a more agile working environment for staff.
Our strategic plan 2019–2022 sets out our objectives under three headings and forms the basis for business planning across Leeds Mind. The main objectives for 2021/22 are set out below:
1. We will make mental health everyone’s business – by raising awareness and reducing stigma around mental health and putting Leeds Mind at the heart of mental health in the City.
We will do this by :
-
Working with more people across the City with a focus on those people within the most deprived areas.
-
Embedding our workplace wellbeing offer through the Help for Employers package.
-
Building on the success of the Mindful Employer conference we will recruit more steering group members and expand the network to promote positive attitudes to mental health in the workplace.
-
Launch our new website and communications using the new Mind branding which is more accessible and inclusive.
2. We will be person centred and responsive – by putting people at the centre of our organisation, delivering high quality and inclusive support through understanding the needs of our communities.
We will do this by :
-
Continuing to embed client involvement ensuring that people using our services are part of shaping and developing our organisation through our Impact group.
-
Developing our children and young people’s workstream to increase the services we offer and the number of people we work with.
-
Create an action plan following our audit from the National Centre of Diversity to embed an inclusive culture through our Equality and Diversity workstream working with staff, volunteers and clients. This will include appointing additional members to the Board of trustees to diversify the leadership.
-
Offer both virtual and face to face support for clients based upon their preference and need.
-
− Developing our creative community offer.
3. We will thrive and innovate – by ensuring we are here for the long term through our forward thinking approach to services.
We will do this by:
-
Implement agile working across Leeds Mind balancing the needs of employees, clients and the organisation.
-
Increasing income through tendering for statutory contracts and rebuilding our voluntary income.
-
Building on our collaboration with Mind in Bradford to promote our services across West Yorkshire under the operating name of West Yorkshire Mind.
-
− Monitoring our outcomes to demonstrate the difference we make to the people of Leeds.
-
Ensure the efficient use of all our resources including IT and property.

Leeds Mind
Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2021 (continued)
Statement of the Responsibilities of the Trustees
Company law requires the Board to prepare financial statements for each financial period, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company as at the end of the financial period and of the surplus or deficit of the charitable company for that period.
In preparing those financial statements the Board is required to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Statement of disclosure to the auditor
The trustees of the company who held office at the date of approval of this annual report confirm that:
-
so far as they are aware, there is no relevant audit information, information needed by the company’s auditors in connection with preparing their report, of which the charitable company’s auditors are unaware; and
-
they have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as trustees in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the charitable company’s auditors are aware of this information.
Auditor
Garbutt & Elliott Audit Limited has indicated its willingness to be re-appointed at the annual general meeting.
Small Company Rules
This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies 18/10/2021 Act 2006 relating to small companies. It was approved by the Board of Trustees on …………… and signed on its behalf by:
Linda Grant Chair of Trustees

Leeds Mind
Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Leeds Mind
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Leeds Mind for the year ended 31 March 2021 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 UK Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion, the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the Charitable Company’s affairs as at 31 March 2021 and of its income and expenditure for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with UK 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. Our 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 Charity 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
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Charitable Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
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.

Leeds Mind
Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Leeds Mind
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 (incorporating the strategic report and the Directors’ report) for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
the Trustees’ report (incorporating the strategic report and the Directors’ report) has 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 Charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees’ Annual Report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which 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;
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns;
-
certain disclosures of Trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not obtained all the information and explanations necessary for the purposes of our audit.
Responsibilities of the Trustees
As explained more fully in the Trustees’ responsibilities statement, the Trustees 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 they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the Charity’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 Charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Our 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.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
Extent to which the audit was capable of identifying irregularities, including fraud
We identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements from our general commercial and sector experience, through discussion with the trustees/directors and other management, and from inspection of the charitable company’s regulatory and legal correspondence. We discussed with the trustees and other management the policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations. We communicated identified laws and regulations throughout our team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance during the audit.
11
Leeds Mind
Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Leeds Mind
The charitable company is subject to laws and regulations that directly affect the financial statements including financial reporting legislation (including related companies and charities legislation), pensions legislation, taxation legislation and further laws and regulations that could indirectly affect the financial statements, comprising data protection, health and safety, safeguarding and employment legislation, and, in the current climate, Covid regulations. We assessed the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statement items. Auditing standards limit the required audit procedures to identify non-compliance with these laws and regulations to enquiry of the trustees and other management and inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. These procedures did not identify any potentially material actual or suspected non-compliance.
To identify risks of material misstatement due to fraud we considered the opportunities and incentives and pressures that may exist within the charitable company to commit fraud. Our risk assessment procedures included: enquiry of trustees and other management to understand the high level policies and procedures in place to prevent and detect fraud, reading Board minutes and considering performance targets and incentive schemes in place for management. We communicated identified fraud risks throughout our team and remained alert to any indications of fraud during the audit.
As a result of these procedures we identified the greatest potential for fraud in the following areas:
-
income recognition and in particular the risk that income is recognised in the wrong reporting period; and
-
subjective accounting estimates.
Both fraud risks arise due to a potential desire to present the financial statements in a differing light.
As required by auditing standards we also identified and addressed the risk of management override of controls.
We performed the following procedures to address the risks of fraud identified:
-
identifying and testing high risk journal entries through vouching the entries to supporting documentation;
-
assessing significant accounting estimates for bias; and
-
testing the recognition of income and in particular that it was appropriately recognised or deferred.
Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. For example, the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited procedures required by auditing standards would identify it.
In addition, as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of non-detection of fraud, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. Our audit procedures are designed to detect material misstatement. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance or fraud and cannot be expected to detect noncompliance with all laws and regulations.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2021
1. Accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
Company Information
Leeds Mind is a Company Limited by Guarantee and is also a registered charity. The registered office is Clarence House, 11 Clarence Road, Horsforth, Leeds, LS18 4LB.
Each member of the company has undertaken to contribute such amount as may be required not exceeding £1 to the assets of the charitable company in the event of it being wound up while he or she is a member, or within one year after he or she ceases to be a member.
Basis of preparation of the 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 Financial Statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019) – (Charities SORP (FRS102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102), the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011.
Leeds Mind meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.
Going concern
The Trustees have prepared financial projections that are being regularly revised to take into account the current economic climate, particularly in respect of the ongoing uncertain situation arising from Covid-19 and its potential impact on the sources of income and planned expenditure. When considered alongside cash reserves and contingency plans established to manage cash flows in the event that income streams are reduced, these projections demonstrate that the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that adequate financial resources are available to enable the charity to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and not less than 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. Consequently the financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the charity is a going concern.
Income
Income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities (“SoFA”) when the charity has established entitlement and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy.
Donations and legacies, which include grants, are included in the SoFA when it is probable that the funds will be received and that they can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Grants, including grants for the purchase of fixed assets, are recognised in full in the SoFA in the period in which they are receivable.
The value of services provided by volunteers is not included.
Trading and investment income is accounted for on an accruals basis.
Where income is received specifically for expenditure in a future accounting period that amount is deferred.

1. Accounting Policies (continued)
Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised in the period in which it is incurred. Expenditure includes attributable VAT which cannot be recovered.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the deliverance of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be directly allocated to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Support costs comprise all non-attributable costs including Finance, Human Resources, Information Technology and Administration. These costs have been allocated across activities either directly or based on usage as set out in note 7.
Staff costs
The costs of short term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense where settlement of obligations does not fall within the same period.
Fund accounting
Funds held by the charity are either:
General funds – are unrestricted funds comprising donations and other incoming resources receivable or generated for the objects of the charity without further specified purpose.
Designated funds - are unrestricted funds earmarked by the Trustees for particular purposes.
Restricted funds - are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund, together with a fair allocation of management and support costs.
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation, individual tangible assets are capitalised if costing in excess of £5,000. Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off fixed assets, less their residual value, over their estimated useful lives as follows:
Freehold buildings Fixtures, fittings and computer equipment
50 years straight line 3 years straight line
Freehold land is not depreciated.
Financial instruments
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity held for working capital. Any bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1. Accounting Policies (continued)
Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid.
Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting end date.
Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected. Any impairment loss is recognised in the income and expenditure account.
Creditors, loans and provisions
Creditors, loans and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors, loans and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
Financial liabilities are only derecognised when, and only when, the charity’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire.
Amounts recognised as provisions are best estimates of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting end date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
Pension costs
The charity operates defined contribution pension arrangements for its employees. Amounts due are recognised as an expense in the SoFA when they fall due for payment.
Operating leases
Rentals payable under operating leases, including any lease incentives received, are charged to the SoFA on a straight line basis over the lease term.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised, if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are outlined below.
Allocation of Support Costs
Support costs have been allocated to charitable activities on the basis of a reasonable estimate based on income.

During the prior year, the charity acted as administrator of the LCC Drop-in and Outreach funded by LCC Adult Social Care for city-wide projects. The charity was then responsible for paying out the amounts awarded to the individual projects. As the charity had no discretion as to whom the amounts received were paid to and the activity was not discretionary grant making, a detailed analysis has not been considered necessary.
