BATH MIND
Report of the Trustees
for the year ended 31 March 2025
The Committee of Management employs staff to manage and deliver seNices. Trustees also greatly value
the volunteer tearn.. these unpaid individuals freely donate their time, skills and energy, allowing Bath Mind to
work more efficiently in the community, increasing service capacity and reaching more people.
The Management of Organisational Risk
The potential risk to income streams is minimised by maintaining a balance of different income sources such
as- payments for services commissioned by Bath & North East Somerset Council, Wiltshire Council and the
BaNES Swindon and Wiltshire CCG, project grants from other organisations, housing rents, fundraising and
training income and private donations.
There is also a balance of activities between long- medium- and short-term projects.
Long-term projects, such as supported housing projects, are relatively stable with long-term planning cycles.
Demand for places in the housing projects has remained steady but the situation is closely monitored. Risk is
managed by maintaining positive and constructive relationships with the housing association that owns the
properties managed by Balh Mind. The provision of an excellent housing management seNice is at the heart
of these positive relationships. Financial risk is minimised through the adjustment of void levels, making
budget provision for rooms that may remain empty. These are kept under continuous review and adjusted
annually.
Medium- and short-term projects are planned and managed on an individual basis. Potential risks are
analysed at the planning and design stage and if a potential project is unable to provide full cost recovery, it
is unlikely to be accepted. Robust monitoring and review processes ensure that any Problems are picked up
in time for delivery adjustments lo be made.
Arrangements for setting key management personnel remuneration
The trustees consider that the board of trustees, the CEO, Finance Manager, and Directors of Services and
Business development comprise the key management personnel of the charity in charge of the directing and
controlling the charity and running and operating the charity on a day-to-day basis. All trustees give of their
time freely and no trustee remuneration was paid in the year. Details of trustee expenses and related party
transactions are disclosed in note 8 and 9 to the accounts.
Trustees are required to disclose all relevant interests and register them in accordance with the charity's
policy and withdraw from decisions where a conflict of interest arises.
Financial instruments
The charity only holds basic financial instruments as defined in FRS 102. The financial assets and financial
liabilities of the charity and their measurement basis are as follows..
Financial assets
trade and other debtors are basic financial instruments and are debt instruments
measured at amortised cost as detailed in note 11. Prepayments are not financial instruments.
Cash at bank - is classified as a basic financial instrument and is measured at face value.
Financial liabilities - trade creditors, accruals and other creditors are financial instruments, and are measured
at amortised cost as detailed in note 12. Taxation and social security are not included in the financial
instruments. disclosure definition. Deferred income is not deemed to be a financial liability, as the cash
settlement has already taken place and there is an obligation to deliver services rather than cash or another
financial instrument.

regulations.

law the trustees must not approve the financial slatemenls unless they are satisfied that they give a true and
fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of ils incoming resources and application of
resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of
Bath Mind
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Bath Mind (the 'charitable company,) for the year ended
31 March 2025 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 Ppctice).
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 2025 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
Practi￿. and
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Intemational 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 signrficant doubt on the charitable company's abilty 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 Ihe 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 fomi 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 infomiation 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 15 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.
Page 17

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of
Bath Mind
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 Stalement of Trustees, Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the
directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company lawl 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 charitable company's
ability to continue as a going concern, 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.
Page 18

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of
Bath 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..
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the entity by
discussion with key personnel and consideration of our experience of clients in similar sectors.
We determined that the most significant laws and regulations which have a direct impact on the form and
content of the financial statements of the entity are the Companies Act and UK GAAP, specifically the
Charities SORP.
We determined that the most significant operational laws and regulations for the entity are those goveming
the charitable sector, safeguarding regulations and GDPR.
Based on the results of our risk assessment we designed our audit procedures to identify non￿cOmpLiance
with such laws and regulations identified above, with no issues arising.
We gained an understating of the entity's policy and procedures by discussion with key personnel and
substantive audit work.
We assessed the risk of material misstatement in respect of fraud through our planning processes, and no
significant risks were identified. We considered the risk of fraud through management override and, in
response, we incorporated testing of manual journal entries into our audit approach.
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.
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.uklauditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our
Report of the Independent Auditors.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of
Part 16 of the Companies Acl 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the
charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors, report and for
no other purpose. To the fullest extent permilted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to
anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company's members as a body, for our audit
work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements and statement of compliance
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entty 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.
The financial statements comply wilh the Charities Act 2011.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity, and
rounded to the nearest £.
Going concern
The financial statements are prepared on the assumption that the entity is a going concern and will
continue its operations for the foreseeable future.
Income and endowments
Income is recognised when the charty has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement
date. In the event that income is subject to conditions that require a level of performance by the
charity before the charity is entitled lo the funds, or other specific conditions that limit income
recognition, the income may be deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met,
or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that
those conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period
Legacy gifts are recognised on a case-by-case basis following the grant of probate when the
administratorlexecutor for the eslate has communicated in writing both the amount and settlement
date. In the event that the gift is in Ihe form of an asset other than cash, or a financial asset traded on
a recognised stock exchange, recognition is subject to the value of the gift being reliably measurable
with a degree of reasonable accuracy and the title to the asset having been transferred to the charity.
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.
Charitable activities
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities
and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities
and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its
estimated useful lrfe.
Leasehold
Furniture & equipment
in accordance with the property lease
Tangible assets are measured at depreciated historical cost.
Taxation
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010
and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes.
Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains
received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section
256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are
applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the
trustees.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds set aside for specific purposes as at the discretion of the

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for services perfomied in the ordinary course of
business.
Trade debtors are recognised initially at transaction price. The are subsequently measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the
impairment of trade debtors is estsblished when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be
able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-temi highly
liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an
insignificant risk of change in value.
Trade creditors
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary
course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the charity
does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the
creditor for at least ￿e1ve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer
settlement for at east twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current
liabilities.
