**Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)** 

**Grants awarded 2020-21** Total £17,683.55 **Education and training Service User Involvement Fund** - £37.50 Trustees also agreed to commit £1500 to an Expert by Experience to work on the hospital centenary over the next 12 months. **Eileen Skellern Awards** : Support for therapy fees for 2 nurses - £1,130. **Research and Innovation** Research Assistant Funding £12,978.81 (August 19-January 20) The Research Assistant has been working on the following projects - **NIHR Mental Health Policy Research Unit** - Supporting a scoping review of current services commissioned by NHS England. The work has supported a number of publications and national presentations going on to support the development of the Community Mental Health framework **Personality Disorder Severity Project** - Personality Disorder is now classified as either mild, moderate or severe. The project, in collaboration with Kings College London and University of Bristol, aims to investigate the outcomes associated with the different levels.  A grant from the Robert Luff foundation supported the establishment of a team to start the first project exploring the association of severity of personality disorder with admission to physical health hospitals. This is due for presentation later in 2021. **Cassel and Managed Clinical Network.** The Research Assistant supported a number of projects which were jointly run with clinicians alongside lived- experience practitioners. These projects have resulted in two publications in 2020 and a further one under review. **Centenary projects** £3537.24 

To mark the Centenary of the Cassel we are working with the hospital to deliver a number of projects including an academic conference, Centenary edition of the International Journal of Therapeutic Communities and to digitise the unique archive collection that documents the significance of the Cassel and its contribution to the development of the treatment of complex personality disorder. We are also making :1 Centenary quilt with 100 diamonds. 2 - A film – The Voices of the Cassel - using the unique archive material and the voices of current and past patients. The oral history company On the Record (OTR)  is our film production partner. Costs comprised: The National Lottery grant first instalment of £3212 to On the Record for the film project.

Section D                      Achievements and performance 

## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

**Research** - the research assistant continued to work on a full-time contract from January-October 2020, funded by NHS West London. The projects she was involved in, detailed above, will raise the profile of the Cassel as a research centre.  Income from Kings College London of £5800 was received in May 20. A second research grant from the Luff Foundation of £20,000 was received in December 2020. 

**Service User Involvement fund** – this supports service users to work alongside clinicians developing and delivering training, benefitting both staff and patients. The continuation of the **Eileen Skellern Awards** in 2020-21 has subsidised therapy fees for nursing staff, which is a powerful tool in recruitment and retention of staff. **Local engagement** was naturally curtailed this year, given the pandemic, although the charity had a presence at the local Christmas market. However work progressed on developing the public profile of the charity through relaunching the website, including essential FAQs about the charity and its work, and preparing copy for a local magazine.  Links were also made with Richmond CVS, Ham United Group and the Ham and Petersham Association. **Centenary** The aim is to use this opportunity to raise the profile of the hospital and to raise funds. Trustees have attended regular meetings with hospital staff, patients and partners to consider ways of commemorating this event, including an oral history project with past patients, archival research on the history of the hospital, a craft project, an academic conference, the editorship of an academic journal and the hosting of the annual Skellern lecture.  Some of these projects have had to be postponed, but have been rescheduled for 2022. Grant income of £8263 was obtained for the oral history project from The National Lottery Community Fund. While the project had to be postponed, preparatory work was undertaken.  A partnership agreement was entered into with On the Record, an oral history specialist, to facilitate this project. **Trustees** Three new trustees were recruited in the summer of 2020. Maureen Miller (local resident) Paul Jullien (Cassel Carers’ group) Hannah Prowse (local resident)

## **The Cassel Hospital Charitable Trust** 

## **Independent Examiners’ Report to the Trustees of The Cassel Hospital Charitable Trust** 

## **Year ended 5 April 2021** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Cassel Hospital Charitable Trust for the year ended 5 April 2021, which are set out on pages 10 to 11. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity’s Trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). 

I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached
