STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes an unincorporated charity.
Reserves policy and Risk management
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.
The trustees have given consideration to the risks by the charity and the main risk has been identified as the shortterm nature of the various charitable grants which are received and which are vital for the financial viability of the charity. In view of this the trustees are aiming to build up the free reserves to a level which would at least provide some security to cover period when there is a shortfall in the receipt of charitable grants.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objects
The objects of the Charity are to benefit the public by providing relief and rehabilitation for persons resident in the United Kingdom suffering or recovering from any form of mental illness by provision of opportunities for such persons to engage in therapeutic activities.

Review of Activities
Friends of Cathja retains its attendee led ethic. The project offers regular participation in supported therapeutic creativity in the form of woodwork and art. Project hours are based around a workshop, Monday to Friday 10:003:30 offering structure and routine. Beyond that attendees determine their own outcomes, based on the understanding that the individual is most empowered by being in control of their own lives. As many decisions as possible are taken by workshop attendees, in relation to their work, the duration of attendance and the operation of the whole project. Current staff includes of two of the three permanent staff being people who joined the project as attendees.
The project continues to help attendees reduce their dependency on NHS services and move towards full reintegration in society. Continued to provide vital services for residents who suffer from mental health issues.
In June 2019, we opened a new shop in Isleworth, that traded successfully till February 2020, when it closed because the developer began work. The Catja provision closed in March with the lockdown, but attendees were supported in July 2020, under appropriate safety measures and continue to offer emotional and practical support.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021 set out on pages six to fourteen.
Respective responsibilities of the trustees and examiner
The trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under Section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the Charity is not subject to audit under Company Law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011Act); and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of the independent examiner’s report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:
-
(1) to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP FRS102) have not been met; or
-
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
