The Board of Trustees presents its report and audited financial statements for the period 1 April 2020 to 31 March 2021.
The Trustees are pleased to present their annual directors' report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ending 31 March 2021 which are also prepared to meet the requirements for a directors' report and accounts for Companies Act purposes.
The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
Bristol Mind's Memorandum of Association sets out the organisation's principle organisational objectives which are for the public benefit and are compatible with the Charities Act 2006. These are:
To promote the preservation of mental health and to assist in relieving and rehabilitating persons suffering from mental disorders or conditions of emotional distress requiring advice and treatment, in association with Mind in accordance with the aims and objectives of Mind. (Please note the language used is historic, current terms used are 'experiencing emotional or mental distress')
Our organisational aims are:
-
Prevent: Improve the mental wellbeing of our community - to help prevent the development of emotional and mental health issues.
-
Support: Improve (individual) emotional and mental wellbeing by providing support to people who need it.
-
Campaign: Reduce the stigma and discrimination associated with mental health issues so there's equality of access to support for all our communities.
Public benefit
All Bristol Mind's charitable activities focus on the provision of accessible and effective mental health support, education, and campaigning for people resident in Bristol and the surrounding areas. Such a programme of activity is invariably of public benefit insofar as it contributes to healthy, active citizens, family and community cohesion, and increased social inclusion and mobility. Public benefit is also derived from the prevention of escalating levels of mental ill-health among Bristol Mind's service users because of their accessing the organisation. That Bristol Mind offers an effective and timely service for vulnerable people is of public benefit in terms of cost-effectiveness in both the short and long term.
The strategies employed to achieve the charity's aims and objectives are to:
-
Promote mental wellbeing and social inclusion and assist recovery.
-
Support people at times of crisis.
-
Enable people to have their voice heard through access to advocacy.
-
Provide training and consultancy that improves the effectiveness of agencies, communities, and individuals to support recovery and sustain wellbeing.
-
Create opportunities for people recovering from mental health problems to use skills, gain experience, and achieve life goals through volunteering.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
STRATEGIC REPORT
Achievement and performance
In March 2020 the Government implemented lockdown restrictions as a result of the Covid 19 pandemic. Bristol Mind had already instigated an IT replacement programme with a roll out of laptops and mobile telephones to all staff. As a result, all of the staff were able to work effectively from their homes. This enabled us to manage our services while keeping clients and colleagues safe and well.
Services continued to operate remotely throughout the year either through digital platforms or through phone support. Mindline, Meeting Minds, Mindline Trans and the Hate Crime Service all saw increased demand as a result of the pandemic. Likewise, the counselling services including the LGBTQ+ service, the Shielding service, with funding from Pears Soap, Mind Without Borders and the Greenspace project were all able to provide continued, effective support throughout the year.
The advocacy services found working under lockdown more challenging, with obvious issues around visiting hospitals and care homes throughout the pandemic. Many clients found adjusting to video conferencing difficult. However, it remains a testament to all our staff and volunteers that we were able to have most services running within a new 'normal' throughout an incredibly difficult year.
Fundraising
Bristol Mind relies heavily on local business to support us by making us their Charity of the Year ("COTY"). Prior to lockdown this had proved an invaluable source of income, with a number of locally based organisations making significant contributions to our services. With the advent of lockdown restrictions this income stream has significantly reduced as people have been unable to take part in face-to-face fundraising activities resulting in a significant reduction in COTY donations. That said, we saw a significant increase in donations made through our Just Giving site, resulting in an overall reduction in income of only £17k.
Bristol Mind would like to thank all our friends, funders and donors for their generous support throughout the year.
Management
Bristol Mind underwent several changes at senior management level during the year. This included the appointment of an interim CEO while the Board of Trustees considered next steps. In 2021/22 the Board will begin a national recruitment campaign to appoint a new permanent CEO to take the organisation forward.
Financial review
Financial position
The Covid 19 pandemic had a significant impact on Bristol Mind's finances during 2020/21 resulting in a net deficit of £83k (2019/20 surplus of £123k).
Overall gross income showed a moderate reduction on the previous financial year, with £869k generated during 2020/21 compared with £886k in 2019/20, a reduction of £17k. The charity traditionally generates significant income from its Charities of the Year (COTYs). The pandemic and particularly the resulting lockdown has had a significant impact on this income stream, with donations of £126k during the year compared with £226k in 2019/20, a reduction of £100k. We continue to thank all our donors for their very generous support during this extremely difficult year.
Overall gross expenditure during the year was £952k, an increase of £190k on 2019/20 gross expenditure of £762k. This was largely due to increased staff costs, IT investment and maintenance work to the building. The IT investment programme was long overdue and ensured the charity could continue its work during the pandemic.
The unrestricted reserves of the charity are £359k (2020: £449k) which helps us to weather cashflow variations in funder payments.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
STRATEGIC REPORT Financial review
Reserves policy
Bristol Mind has unrestricted general, designated, and restricted reserves. The Board has reviewed the general reserves considering the following:
- Diverse sources of income
-
Working capital requirements
-
Key risks, their potential impact on reserves and the timeframe in which mitigating actions could be put into action and the impact they would have
-
Increased level of uncertainty in charity fundraising
-
Continuation of the Covid-19 pandemic
Trustees have therefore agreed to continue to maintain general reserves at a minimum of three months running costs. This will help the charity to withstand a sustained fall in income while providing the capability for Trustees and the CEO to then make sure expenditure could be reduced in a managed fashion, avoiding the need to halt important work abruptly and allow service years to move on in a supported and managed fashion.
If difficulties were to arise then it has been calculated that reserves of £238k would be needed to continue running current services for at least three months. This figure is based on operating costs only. The reserves policy is reviewed on an annual basis unless there are significant changes to business circumstances.
Unrestricted reserves on 31 March 2021 were £359k, £90k lower than the previous year, but still more than the minimum reserves level specified in our reserves policy. However, the on-going financial effects of the pandemic, particularly on charity donations remain unknown. Given this uncertainty, Trustees are committed to maintaining the reserves at least the target level in the changing financial environment while ensuring that surplus funds are utilised to support charitable objectives.
Unrestricted reserves consist of a contingency fund, as well as a general reserve set aside to meet any unexpected changes in the financial environment.
Restricted funds are only available for expenditure as directed by the donor. At 31 March 2021 Restricted funds totalled £25k, a breakdown of which can be found in note 12 to the financial statements (2019/20 £17k).
Going concern
The accounts have been prepared on the assumption that the charity is able to continue as a going concern. However, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to have a profound impact on the global economy and may in turn affect the charity.
The Trustees have considered the impact of this issue on the charity's current and future financial position. Fundraising and donations now account for a significant proportion of the charity's income. This is likely to be significantly affected by any economic changes because of the pandemic. As at the balance sheet date, the charity holds unrestricted, general reserves of £359k including a cash balance of £428k. The Trustees consider that the charity has sufficient reserves and cashflow to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from the date on which these financial statements are approved.
Future plans
Our key goals for the coming year at Bristol Mind are:
-
Recruit a permanent CEO.
-
Carry out a full review of our premises needs.
-
Continue our COVID-19 recovery plan. This will include both understanding the increasingly complex need of our clients but also ensuring that our governance and financial systems are robust and allow us to be sustainable as we face a time of unprecedented challenges at all levels.
-
To continue to diversify our income to ensure we are financially robust and reduce our reliability on public sector.
-
Secure additional funding.
-
Review our service offering.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Trustees of Bristol Mind
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Bristol Mind (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 March 2021 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 Practice).
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 2021 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 Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International 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 significant doubt on the charitable company's ability 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 the 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 form 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 information 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 is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the Report of the Trustees is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or
-
the charitable company has not kept adequate accounting records; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes 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 internal 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 concern 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 6
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Trustees of Bristol Mind
Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditors 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 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.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK), we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances.
-Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the trustees.
-Conclude on the appropriateness of the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the charity to cease to continue as a going concern.
-Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the charity or activities within the charity. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit and we remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
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.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.
