people with mental health in BAME and other'seldom heard" or under-supported, communities and the specific
difficulties members of these communities face in understanding and accessing appropriate support.
Our work in this area is evidence of a strong commitment to, and experien￿ of, working with the wide range of
diverse communities in Hillingdon and delivering support in culturally sensitive ways. We provided several
projects that strove to engage members from a range of the diverse BAME communities within the borough.
These projects not only provided direct support to service users through 1-1 sessions and groups but also, in
many instances, to their families or'carers" as well.

life choices to improve physical health when possible. We continue to offer our Wellbeing Walks and Forest

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
Hillingdon Mind continues to carry out research with Servi￿ users about the barriers that prevent them from
returning to work and other issues such as discrimination, stigma, managing mental health in the workplace and
the experience of being unemployed with mental health issues. The results are fed back to our organisation at
national level and service users are encouraged to take part in forums to have a voice and be heard by
policymakers. This has helped in the campaign for equality and policy changes to support people with mentsl
health issues particularly around evidencing mental health when trying to daim benefit entit16ment.
Hillingdon Mind is involved in the Wnter Wellness Committee (a partnership be￿een the London Borough of
Hillingdon, 3rd Sector and NHS) and this gives us an opportunity to research the situation faced by our servi
users and share their experiences With the board to ensure they have a relevant voice.
We work closely with other third sector organisations such as POhWER and Healthwatch to empower people to
8hare their feedback about use of different services.

service user views on proposed developments in mental health serVi￿S within Hillingdon - service users,
feedback on their experien¢es of using GP and secondary health services. We ensure that this ¢ontinues to be
fedback to relevant parties ensuring that people's opinion8 are listened to. This helps shape the continuing
development of services such as the SMI project which has led to increased engagement by people with severe
mental health issues wsth their GP services and health checks.
Through partnership working with local higher education institute$, Hillingdon Mind Servi￿ users have been
supported to participate in the curriculum of key health and social ¢8re Gourses such as OT, Social Work and
Psychology by sharing their lived experience with students during serninars and lectures.

part of the Board of Trustees.
Incroased awareness of mental health and addl¢tlon18SUe8
Hillingdon Mind continued to deliver Mental Health Awarene8s sessions to local organisations and employers, the
aim of which was to educate people on signs of mental health issues to support early intervention and prevention
and provide knowledge on support options and self-pAre. Mental health issues can still cause stigma and
discrimination so awareness sessions aim to challenge this and support job retention and preventative strategie8
in the workplace.

HILLINGDON MIND
TRUSTEES. REPORT (CONTINUED>(INCLUDING DIRECTORS. REPORT)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
Financial review
Having service reviews agreed with key funders, projects were run to budget ensuring no further pressure was
put onto reserves and the overall sU￿lUS for the year has increased the level of free reserves carried forward at
the financial year end. The transactions undertaken by the chariiy are detailed in the statement of financial
activities within the accounts and in the related notes.
The principal funding sources for the charity are currently by formal Contracts for provtsion of mental health
Servi￿ and this funding primarily comes from the London Borough of Hillingdon, Hillingdon ICB and CNWL NHS
Trust. The rest of the 8ervices are funded through the Big Lottery, Lloyds Bank Foundation, Ruislip Lions and the
A P Taylor Trust.
The trustees have examined the charity's requirements for re$eNè$ considering the main risks to the
organisation and have established a policy whereby a level of uncommitted reserves approximating to a third of
the charity's current annual level of income should be maintained. The trustees consider that reserves at this
level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity's
current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. The total level of
uncommitted reseNes held by the charity at the balance sheet date, as noted within the Statement of Financial
Activities, has met that target, having shown a further improvement for the year under review, and the trustees
are aware of what needs to be done to maintain a consistent level over forthcoming years.
The Finance Offl¢er and Director provide quartedy management accounts and ¢ash-flow reports to the Board of
Trustees to assist with the effective oversight and management of the charity's finances. Mthilst Ihe charitable
company continues to face challenges in securing sufficient and appropriate on-going funding, th8 trustees are
pleased wlth the net surplus achieved in the year which has added to the charitable company's reseNes carried
fomard. The budget for 2024 - 2025 indicates a prolected modest surplus at the and of the financial year, based
on services to be provided.
The trustees have reviewed the charity's reserves at the balance sheet date and have concluded that there are
no restricted reserves to carry forward. Further detalls relating to restricted and unrestricted reserves are
provided in the financial statements.
Whilst interest rates showed an improvement toward the second half of the period under review the trustees
have adopted and maintained a prudent approach with regard to investment policy and few funds were deemed
5Ultable or available for long term investment. Consequently, and to protect the position attained by the charitable
¢ompany, its funds are maintained in current and deposit accounts.
Plans for the future
The charity will continue to provide mental health services in the London Borough of Hilllngdon and 15 active in
extending, or developing new projects to complement the existing services by working collaboratively with the
ICB, CNVVL NHS Trust, the London Borough of Hillingdon and North West London Mind to identify new or
enhanced services. The development of training and olher methods of income generation, which will lead to long
term sustainability, are also at the forefront of Hillingdon Mind's objectives for the forthcoming year.
The trustees remain mindful of the state of the charity's finances but are confident that the steps which have
been implemented will allow the charity to continue its operations into the foreseeable future.
Disclosure ot inforniation to auditor
Each of the director trustees ha5 confimed that there is no information of which they are aware which is relevant
to the audit, but of which the auditors are unaware. They have further confirmed that they havè taken appropriate
steps to identify such relevant information and to establish that the auditors are aware of such information.

TO THE TRUSTEES OF HILLINGDON MIND
Rasponslbllltles of trustees
As explained more fully in the statement of trustees, responsibilities, the trLtstees, who are also the directors of the
charity for the purpose 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 intemal 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 charity's ability to
ontinue as a going cOn￿rn, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concem 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.
Auditorfs responsibilities for thè audit of tha flnanclal ststements
We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the
Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether Ihe financial statements as a whole are free from
material misststement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an audito1$ 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. Misststements 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 finan¢ial statement8.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-complian¢e with laws and regulations. We design procedures in
line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect materlal misstatements in respect of irregularities, including
fraud. The extent to which our procedures are Capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below.

HILLINGDON MIND
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
TO THE TRUSTEES OF HILLINGDON MIND
Extant to which the audit was consldered capable of detectlng Irrègularltlos, Includlng fraud
We have considered the following matters in determining susceptibilty to irregularity within these financial
statements..
We assessed the susceptibility of the entity's financial ststements to material misstatement, including how fraud
might occur.
We considered and identiffied laws and regulations to which the Charity 18 8ubject and detemiined their
significance in the context of the entty.
We obtained an understsnding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the entity and how the entity is
complying with that framework
We obtained an understanding of the entity's policies and procedures on compliance with laws and regulations,
We obtained an understanding of the entity's policies and procedures on fraud risks, including knowledge of any
actual, suspected or alleged fraud,
We ensured that the audlt work was undertaken by an engagernent team with the appropriate competence and
capabilities to identify or r8¢ognise non-compliance with laws and regulations, that any such incidences
communicated and any discussions with speciallsts on areas of the financial ststem8nts which may be particularly
susceptible to fraud have all been addressed.
A8 the entity is a charltable company subject to audit we obtained an understanding of the entity'8 current
activities, the scope of its authorisation and the effectiveness of its control environment.
We considered how our approach to the audit has affected the likelihood of detection of irregularities In explalnlng
the extent to which the audit wa8 consldered capable of detecting irregularities and took into account..
the inherent difficulties in det8Cting irregularities.,
the effectiveness of the entity's controls; and
the nature, timing and extent of the audit procedures performed.
Irregularities that result from fraud might be inherently more difficult to detect than irregularities that result from error
and our responsibilities for the engagement will mean that detection of those lypes of irregularity which give rise to a
risk of material misstatement are those on which we may be able to provide the most comprehensive explanation.

shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activty- Direct costs attributable to a single
activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one a￿1Vity and

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 estimate5 and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting
estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that
period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both Qu￿ent and fvture
period5.
Estimation techniques applied, most particularly in the calculation of appropriate rates of depreciation and the
recoverability of debtors, have been consistently calculated and the trustees consider these to be prudent but
reasonable.
