Reachout Adults "Reachout has really helped my onxiety. Without the group I would not leave home and have others to tolk to. t41 Il¢alb Ros4wc¢ ". Reachout Adults supports people overthe age of 18 with their ernotional and mental health wellbeing by providing confidential, mental health peer support groups across West Kent. The groups operate in the smallercommunities of Edenbridge, Paddock Wood and Southborough, andtherefore can make a real difference to those people in these communitie5 who need support but who may not be able to travel to nearby towns, because of anxiety or inability to travel. The groups aim to provide a safe space for people to focus on their mental wellbeing and recovery in a caring and non-judgmental environment. They also provide a viial opportunity for group members to socialise with each other, build lationShipS and routine and so reduce isolation. Furthermore,
TUNBRIDGE WELLS MENTAL HEALTH RESOURCE LIMITED REPORT OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 clients are supported to take responsibility for their own health and wellbeing and to manage their own long term mental health conditions. Each session consists of: A formal 'check-in' where group members can share how they are feeling, any news or updates from the week. Group members can share as much or as little as they would like. A wellbeing activity e.8. music, exercise, craft, discussions, mindfulness, games or quizzes. Visting facilitators may deliver sessions. Chat with each other and buildin8 relationships with other group members. All groups have an annual summer boat trip on the Rwer Medwaywith a lunch afterwards. During the summer. the groups meet in the community, for example. in local coffee shops, parks or beauty spots for walks and mindful activities. Clients who attend Reachout experience different mental health issues. Common mental health issues in the group are anxiety. depSSIOn and panic di50rders. Other mental health conditions include personality di50rders, bipolar and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. In addition there are some group members on the Autistic Spectrum or who have a learning difference, and some have severe physical illness and mobility issue5. People can keep coming to Reachout groups for as long as they feel they need to and, in this way, these groups often help to keep group members well. The peer-relationships formed during sessions help relationships to develop outside of the group setting and so encourages peer-support in the community. In 2023124 Reachout groups have discussed kindness, grounding techniques, Stress, food and mood and have enjoyed taking part in art and craft activities, walking, healthy eatingsessions, rnusic sessions and hand massages. Visiting facilitators also delivered sessions on chair-based exercises, singing and chair-based yoga. One of the groups also enjoyed a visit from a Pets as Therapy volunteer and his dog. Reachout does not offer specific one to one support. However, all group members are signposted to other organisations and sources of support where needed. One-one support has included referrals to external organisations, crisis support, wellbeing support and support with making phone calls. During the year, 36 people attended the groups and were able to access mental health support and enhance their mental health and wellbeing. A recent evaluation showed: 89% reported that they felt more supported and valued as a result of the Reachout groups 78% felt more connected to other5 as a result of the Reachout groups 78% felt better able to manage their condition as a result of the Reachout groups 78% felt better in themselves as a result of the Reachout groups 94% were satisfied with the support they have reiVed from Reachout.

Mental Health Service Feedback Mental Health Resource is part of a delivery network funded by EK360, the lead provider for the Mental Health Service User Voice contract in Kent. As part of this contract, the Reachout project collects feedback across West Kent from group members, clients, member5 of the public, clients of other organisations, staff, carers and famlly members, about their experience of the mental health system. This feedback could be both positive and negative. Thts feedback 15 submitted to EK360 and is used to inforrn where changes need to be made within the mental health system. A5 part of this project, we reach out and network with other organisations to promote the feedback project and to speak to their clients to gather feedback. During the year we captured and reported the views of 121 people and visited 16 organisations. Reachout Youth "Reochout Youth has helped me massively. The Improvement I have noticed in my mental health and in my wellbeing is amazing. It hos changÈd my life ond my whole outlook on Ilfe Reachotht ywth Meital Healh Resov¢e Reachout Youth 15 a youth group for 13- to 19-year-olds who are experiencing emotional or mental health difficulties. The groups offer young people an informal and confidential space to share stories, reduce stigma, develop coping strategies and make friends. They provide opportunities to meet other young people who've had similar experiences, to share things they may not usually share with others, and to take part in a fun activity. Manyof the young people who attend Reachout Youth have reported they feel lonely. misunderstood and strug8le to feel accepted at school. Reachout Youth provides a safe-space forthem to be themselves and to build friendships. Sessions focus on wellbeing topics, including activitiesi games and discussions on themes surrounding mental health. We often run creative sessions based around a mental health theme which helps to initiate discussions and reflection. Topics this year have included exam stress and friendship issues, and we have encouraged group member5 to lead activities that they are interested in, such as board games, art and exercise. This year the group has been delivered after school in Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge. Occasionally thegroups are delivered in the community, thisyearfor example, sessions havetaken place at a coffee shop, a local park and an ice-cream parlour. During the year. Reachout Youth has organised and conducted workshops and talks at various external locations, including delNering a55emblies at a local secondary school, and giving talks to the YMCA and a Scouts group. This has enabled Reachout Youth io
TUNBRIDGE WELLS MENTAL HEALTH RESOURCE LIMITED REPORTOFTHE BOARD OF TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 to reach a wider audiente and engage with different communities. Due to low attendance at the Tonbridge group, alternative ideas to engage young people are being considered. The issues that the groups can help with are varied and include anxiety, low mood, stress, family relationships, friendships, bereavement, loneliness, isolation, and other long-term chronic mental health conditions. In addition young people can often face a number of challenges in their life, such as relationship issues and neurodevelopmental disorders. Reachout Youth provides a space where voung people can explore how they are feeling and realise they are not alone. Last year, we had contact with 35 young people, with 12 youn8 people attending groups. In a recent evaluation: 80% felt better in themselves 80% felt more connected to others 60% felt less stressed 60% felt better able to manage their conditlon To access the group, young people, their carers, or health professionals must register online or by phone before attending the group. Young people are able to attend Reachout Youth until the age of 19. We are therefore able to provide vital continuity and support as a young person becomes a legal adult at the age of 18. This is particularly important if the young person has experienced the mental health system and is making the often uncertain and difficult transition from Children's to Adult Mental Health Services. b)Advocacy Assert ' Having odvocate present on my meeting meant so much.

The Assert advocacy service provides Independent Mental Health Advocacy {IMHAI to people whose liberty 15 Curtailed by the Mental Health Act, i.e. patients detained in hospital for assessment or treatment, released under restrictlons and liable to recall, or placed in the care of the Local Authority. The service covers a variety of acute, rehabilitation and forensic wards across a large geographical area within Kent, including the Boroughs of Tonbridge & Malling, Sevenoaks, Tunbridge Wells, Maldstone, Dartford and Gravesham, Swanley and Gravesend. All the work advocates undertake is through instructionsfrom clients and is issue-based. The work can vary depending on the setting the client is in. li
TUNBRIDGE WELLS MENTAL HEALTH RESOURCE LIMITED REPORT OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 In acute wards, clients are in an acute phase of illness, and often advocates are working with people who are extremely thought-disordered. In these settings often the first contact Assert have with the patient is when they arrive at the ward, having been removed from the community due to being a rlsk to themselves, others, or both. The IMHA role is independent of the professionals in the h05Pital settlng but the advocates work closely with hospital staff to obtain relevant information about patients so that they can carry out their work safely. The Assert staff work to ensure the clients feel able to speak to them, explain the confidentiality protocol and the support that the service provides. At this stage of admission the Assert team are often the bridge between clients/patients and NHS staff. The IMHA will listen to the client and help them to voice what Is important to them regarding their treatment and care. Patients are within these settings often heavily medicated, and the work involves supporting them to understand thelr rights. the surroundings they find themselves in; what 15 happening to them and whyi the requirements of them while on an acute ward. ensuring their rights are secured; and providing them the opportunity to ask questions and give feedback on thelr experiences of their treatment and care withln this setting. The issues that the Assert team support clients with includes accessing the leave they are entitled to, speaking to doctors and ensuring that they feel and are heard and inform ing clients of their rights to aftercare. The service supports people to express themselves and empowers them to advocate for themselves, but with the knowledge that they can re-refer at any time, The Assert service also supports people housed in rehabllitation units in the area. Advocates support clients in expressing their views regarding the treatment and care within these settings, and also support clients to be able to have a voice in where they are moved on to next-this could be closer to relatives, orfurtheraway from temptations orsituationsthat previously have contributed to a relapse. The work here remain5 iS5ue-based, but there can be more issues such as supporting to voice views on treatment and care then support to ensure appropriate placement and care moving forward is in place, and support from other services is engaged. Assert also supports clients in medium or low forensicsettings. Some patients will have been removed from prisons having become acutely unwell, others will either have been transferred directly from acute wards or courts. All patients in these settings are deemed to Pose a risk to the public and in these settings the patients may need support over long stays, and crimes committed are discussed in detail at meetings held. Advocates can hear harrowing details, but still support the client to ensure their views and wishes are heard. All staff have supervision and time for debriefs when working with these client5. As well as the statutory IMHA service, Assert also provides community advocacy service and addresses the disadvantage experienced by people with poor mental health when dealing with external agencies. The issues the Assert team support community clients with vary greatly. Often the sUPPOrt provided is to ensure the client can express a view regarding treatment and care from the communlty mental health team, GP practices or housing providers.

All community clients are residents of Kent, living within the area Kent County Council commissioning area.

Income was also boosted by a substantial amount of interest earned - £11,48312022/23: £1,590). Total income therefore rose by £45,264 overall, partially offset by a £17,912 increase in expenditure due to the effects of inflation, and also the f illing of several vacancies in the early part of the year.

As it can take sometimes six months or more for funders to respond to applications for funding, the Board of Trustees consider that it is necessary to hold reserves of around four to eight months of running costs to ensure: l. the continuation of long-term services provided to clients during a time of financial uncertainty 2. the smooth transfer of activity during any run-down of services necessitated by any funding shortfalls 15

Four to eight months, running c05t5 are forecast to be c. £178,000- £356,000 50 the amount of free unrestrirted reserves of £200,651 (the General fund less tangible fixed assets not covered bv designated fundsl held at the end of the year, is about 4,5 months of running costs and is within the range and therefore appropriate. Trustees review the level of re5erve5 annually. Investment policy The Charitvs investment objective seeks to produce the best financial return within an acceptable level of risk while recogni5ing that capital preservation is of paramount importance. The investment policy therefore requires the Charity to hold all of its assets in cash sterling, deposited with institutions with a minimum rating of BB- and within the levels stipulated bythe Financial Services Compensation Scheme guarantee. Risk Management The Board of Trustees has conducted a review of the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, A Risk Management document Identifying all major risks has been prepared and agreed by the Board. This is currently reviewed twice a year to ensure greater control and governance. The Trustees have always identified one of the key risks to the Charity as being the withdrawal or termination of funding of our main contracts and as such is working to develop strong working relationships with contractors, developing current projects and introducing new projects to ensure the long- term secu rity of the organisation. A fundraising strategy has been formalised and prioritised. Plans for the Future We have updated our organisational strategy for 2024-2027, which prioritises increasing the numbers of people we support through ou r exlsting projects, services and activitie5, as well as delivering mental health support to new groups of people. We have just recruited a Volunteercoordinator and a Mental Health Trainer to help meet these aims. The Mental Health Trainer will be delivering short mental health awareness courses to speclfic Eroups of people. We also know that we can only do what we do by working together, in partnership, with other organisations, creating good relationships to facilltate effective referrals into ou r services, and having up-to-date information on Socal services so that we can also refer and signpost people onto. In all our planning of activities we recognise the differing needs and wishes of clients and client voice will be key to the design and delivery of our services. We will ensure that we take appropriate steps 16
