Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2022 


## **Strategic report** 

Northamptonshire Mind has emerged from the pandemic in a stronger position to meet the mental health challenges that it has presented. The charity activities income and other income have increased from £958,671 and £91,747 respectively last year 2020-21 to the £1,393,256 and £2226,856 respectively in year 2021-22. This is also the first year in which the four merged Minds of Rushden, Wellingborough, Corby and Northampton & District operated as Northamptonshire Mind. 

Our policy is to budget annual expenditure to continue to deliver services that we provide and to build upon our reserves. Our largest source of income is from County Council Social funding and NHFT commissioned services through the Mental Health Northamptonshire Collaborative. However, donations and retail sales show strong gains as pandemic restrictions ease and community fundraising returns. Expenditure levels reflect the support requirements of our commissioners in meeting the growing need and increased demand for mental health services. 

Total Income generated by the Northamptonshire Mind was £1,620,112 (2021: £1,761,208), excluding the net gain on investment at £10,599 (2021: £26,987), and overall total income and gains was £1,630,711 (2021 £1,788,186). Total expenditure for the year stands at £1,701,026 (2021 £1,096,377) resulting in net expenditure over income of (£70,316) (2021: £691,809 (including the donation of net assets from three of the merged charities)). 

This year the Charity’s expenditure is greater than the income generated (i.e. A loss) due to necessary expenditure created by the newly merged organisation requiring a further investment in staff training and development, new posts with the employment of additional administrative staff and a director as part of a more centralised structure and the commissioning of consultants to carry out a human resource alignment exercise to review and align employment conditions and remuneration. Other contributing factors include the debt written off and lower level of income due to writing off the BBO contract in the year, increased supervision costs for counsellors, energy costs, and travelling costs due to the way we have changed our work pattern from being local to centralised. At the end of the year the value of our investments and reserves stands at £145,787 and £653,947 respectively, while cash at bank is £244,470. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The Board of Trustees have agreed that the organisation should attempt to maintain a level of reserves that equates to three months running costs. 

## **Investment Policy** 

The charity has a previously inherited portfolio of stocks and shares, which is held as a long-term investment providing both income generation in the form of dividends and growth in the value of investments for future developments. The charity does not in itself partake investment activity other than to monitor the existing portfolio in to reduce the risk to its assets but recognises the fact that the value of shares can fluctuate. The charity, in line with the policy of National Mind, does not invest directly in drug companies 

## **Review of Major Risks** 

The Trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. 

Page | 4 



Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2022 


Major risks have been identified by the Trustees, are regularly reviewed by the Trustees and systems established to mitigate those risks. The Trustees are fully aware of the reliance on grants and contracts for the maintenance and development of the charity's services as reported in previous years, the charity continues its efforts to diversify its activities supported by funding from a wider range of income sources. 

The charity has insurance cover for its property and legal liabilities normally associated with its operations. The charity recognises its legal and moral duty to minimise personal risk to its users, staff and members of the public and regularly reviews its policies. 

The Financial impact of Covid-19 on the current financial statements and results for the year ended 31 March 2022, whilst they have not been significant to its operations, the level of gifts and donations received from private companies and individuals are much lower than previous years. We anticipate this will change in the current year. 

## **Fraud Risk and Remedies** 

The largest fraud risk to income, is receiving cash but now that we are no longer dealing in cash and monies are going directly to our bank accounts, this is minimised. The second fraud risk is cybercrime, but we have good IT security and human checks and balances in place to ensure that this risk is covered. The third risk is employee fraud due to the number of employees we have but again we ensure that employees Personnel ids and computer Security processes are in place as well as entry in/out of buildings is secure. 

## **Going Concern** 

The Financial Statements have been prepared on the Going Concern basis as detailed in the strategic report to the financial statement. There are new and increased contracts/projects which are starting soon and recorded in the next year forecast, the funds raised together with existing bank balances provide sufficient funding for at least until the end of the calendar year. 

COVID-19 pandemic has had a limited direct impact on the Charity therefore, the Trustees do not believe that the pandemic will affect its ability to trade as a going concern.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2022 


## **Annual Report 2021- 2022 Chair's Introduction** 

This has been a year of growth and development. I am proud to say that we have recruited an Executive Team and six new Trustees to work alongside those that have remained following the merger. The combination of skills, experience and enthusiasm has been essential in steering Northamptonshire Mind through this period of organisational change and the uncertainty that the pandemic bought. 

Throughout the year we started to identify our priorities, consulting with service users and stakeholders, gathering and analysing data to inform our Strategy. We undertook a full organisation self-assessment, in line with our quality assurance and the Mind Quality Mark. 

During this period of development and growth we have kept the Charity's beneficiaries at the heart of all we do. We strive to live our values to make sure everyone can get mental health support, whoever they are, whatever their race, gender, sexuality, disability or beliefs. 

We are seeing an increase in demand for services and have evidence of those disproportionately affected by the pandemic and it’s our service users. We know that we can improve everyday life for people in the county with our sites and services. Whilst positioning ourselves strategically to influence policy and practise. 

On behalf of the board, I would like to thank the staff and volunteers for their tireless hard work and commitment, they are the organisations greatest asset. They continue to find different ways of working to respond to need, always giving their time and expertise to help those who may be suffering from mental health challenges. 

I would also like to thank our amazing supporters, fundraisers and funders who ensure that we can continue to deliver our vision. 

Thank you, everyone.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of Northamptonshire Mind 


## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of Northamptonshire Mind (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 March 2022 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 (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. 

## 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 2022 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, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'; 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 Auditors' 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** 

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.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of Northamptonshire Mind 


## **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 Report of the Independent Auditors 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 this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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. 

## **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 Report of the Trustees for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and 

- The Report of the Trustees 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 charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees. 

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. 

## **Responsibilities of Trustees** 

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, 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 preparing 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.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of Northamptonshire Mind 


## **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 a Report of the Independent Auditors 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 extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: 

## **Identifying and assessing potential risks related to irregularities** 

In identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and noncompliance with laws and regulations, we considered the following: 

- The nature of the charity's activities and sector, control environment and financial performance; 

- Enquiring of management and the Trustees, including obtaining and reviewing supporting documentation, concerning the charitable company's policies and procedures relating to: 

   - Identifying, evaluating and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance; 

   - Detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud; 

   - The internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations. 

- Discussing among the engagement team and involving relevant internal specialists, including tax, and charity specialists (where relevant) regarding how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements and any potential indicators of fraud; and 

- Obtaining and understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the charitable company operates in, focusing on those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the financial statements, such as provisions of the UK Companies Act, charity legislation and tax legislation or that had a fundamental effect on the operations of the charitable company; including General Data Protection requirements, anti-bribery and corruption policy. 

## **Audit response to risks identified** 

As a result of performing the above, we identified various provisions of the Charities Act and the Charity Commission guidance as key audit matters related to non-compliance with laws and regulations and the receipt of donations and the making of grants as key audit matters related to the potential risk of fraud. In common with all audits under isas (UK), we are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override. 

In addition to the above, our procedures to respond to risks identified include the following: 

- Review of the financial statement disclosures and testing to support documentation to assess compliance with provisions of relevant laws and regulations described as having a direct effect on the financial statements; 

- Enquiring of management, the Trustees and in-house and external legal counsel where relevant concerning actual and potential litigation and claims; 

- Performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud; and 

Page | 12 



Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of Northamptonshire Mind 


- Reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance, reviewing internal reports where relevant and correspondence. 

- Reviewing compliance with relevant charity legislation. 

- Reviewing and testing the receipt of donations. 

- Reviewing and testing the making of grants. 

- In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, testing the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments; assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias; and evaluating the rationale of the charity for any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business. 

We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members and remained alert to an indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit. 

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation.  This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation. 

As part of an audit in accordance with isas (UK), we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: 

- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. 

- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the charitable company's internal control. 

- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Trustees. 

- Conclude on the appropriateness of the Trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to 

continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit 

Evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the charitable company to cease to continue as a going concern. 

Page | 13 



Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of Northamptonshire Mind 


- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. 

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. 

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 Report of the Independent Auditors.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2022 


## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates to write off each asset to its estimated residual value over its estimated useful life as follows: 

Freehold property               2% of the net book value on transition to Charities SORP FRS102 

Fixtures and fittings              25% on cost 

Northampton Mind's tangible fixed assets have been valued at cost less depreciation in the financial statements in previous year. Following the merger, the tangible fixed assets of Rushden, Corby and Wellingborough have been absorbed into the financial statements. 

Corby and Wellingborough Mind valued their respective properties on the revaluation method and have such been transferred in at those values. Rushden valued their fixed assets under the cost basis. All tangible fixed assets will be valued using the cost method moving forward. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2022 


## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued** 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the Trustees. 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **Finance leases** 

Assets obtained under finance leases are capitalised as tangible fixed assets.  Depreciation is charged over the shorter of the length of the lease and the estimated useful life of the asset.  Finance leases are those where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership are assumed by the charity.  Obligations under such leases are included in creditors net of the finance charge allocated to future periods.  The finance element of each payment is charged to the Statement of Financial Activities so as to produce a constant periodic rate on the net obligation outstanding in each period. 

## Operating leases 

Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are reflected in the Statement of Financial Activities as incurred. 

## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits** 

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme.  Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate. 

The charitable company has charged the regular cost of providing retirement pensions and related benefits to the profit and loss account over the employees' service lives on the basis of a constant percentage of earnings. 

## **Investments** 

Investments are stated at market value.  Realised and unrealised gains and losses on investments are dealt with in the Statement of Financial Activities.  Investment income is credited to income on a received basis, using dates of payment for dividends and interest.

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued** 

## **Value added tax** 

Value added tax is not recoverable by the charity, and as such is included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities. 

## **Management and administration expenditure** 

Expenditure on management and administration of the charity includes all expenditure not directly related to the charitable activity or fundraising ventures.  This includes cost of renting and running office premises, staff for administrative staff and audit fees. 

## **Services** 

Certain services are delivered through dedicated outlets.  The income and expenditure of each service is netted off against each other and the net result for each service included in the Statement of Financial Activities.
