ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE: Charitable activities undertaken for the public benefit

Our main focus in 2022/23 has been leading the campaign for a men's health strategy, while continuing to raise awareness of men's health issues through Men's Health Week, providing men's health information direct to men via our website and our Man Manuals and extending our ongoing Men's Health Champions training programme.

Working in partnership for a Men's Health Strategy

Following the launch of our Men's Health Strategy campaign in November 2021 and the publication of our case for a men's health strategy in the March 2022 edition of 'Trends in Urology and Men's Health', our focus over the summer of 2022 was the building of a strong coalition to support the campaign and working to raise awareness of the need for a men's health strategy in parliament.

In November, we wrote to the Secretary of State for Health & Social Care to put forward our case. Other signatories included representatives from the ManKind Initiative, Men's Health Unlocked, the Men and Boys Coalition, Orchid Cancer Appeal, Global Action on Men's Health, Combat Stress, CHAPS Men's Health Charity, UK Men's Sheds Association, Oral Health Foundation, The Dyson Institute, Blue Ribbon Foundation, Boxing Futures, Survivors Manchester, Future Men, The Fatherhood Institute, Dads Unlimited, Rugby League Cares and Andy's Man Club. In addition, we had 11 academics as signatories including Professor Alan White, Professor Steve Robertson, Professor Ben Hine, Professor Nicola Graham-Kevan and Professor Paul Galdas.

Other backers of our campaign include the Patients Association, Prostate Cancer UK, Association of Mental Health Providers, British Society of Sexual Medicine, Primary Care Urology Society, School and Public Health Nurses Association, the Adult Dyslexia Association and the Black Men's Consortium.

To date, we have 644 signatories to our petition, 414 backing the campaign and 117 signing the letter.

Throughout the year, the steering committee - which includes our Chief Executive, our Patron and representatives of the Men and Boys Coalition and Men's Health Unlocked met regularly and coordinated support to push ahead our activities in parliament.

This paid dividends towards the end of the financial year, as we were able to engage directly with the Chair of the Health Select Committee, Steve Brine MP, to scope ideas for a potential men's health review, sharing ideas as to what a men's health review might look like. This review - directly citing our work - launched shortly afterwards.

Raising awareness: Men's Health Week

One of our top priorities was, once again, to organize Men's Health Week 2022. And the MOT campaign for Men's Health Week was a clear hit.

The main message for men was 'It's time for your MOT' addressing the impact of lower engagement with primary care by men during the Covid pandemic.

Early-stage cancer diagnoses fell by third in the first lockdown in 2022 and that shortfall continued. Macmillan reckon that around 50,000 people missed a cancer diagnosis during the pandemic. Prostate cancer diagnoses, for example, were down 29% between 2019 and 2020. That's not because prostate cancer was getting rarer (it wasn't), but because men weren't seeing their GPs to begin to get diagnosed. Indeed, male GP visits fell more than female visits.

Meanwhile, NHS Health Checks, which should be offered to most people over 40, were paused. To address this, we offered:

More than 2,059 different people ordered our Men's Health Week Man MOT campaign pack to enable them to support the week with events and social media.

THE MEN'S HEALTH FORUM

Report of the Trustees FOR THE PERIOD 1 APRIL 2022 TO 30 MARCH 2023

We had high profile social media support from MIND and Prostate Cancer UK and our Chief Executive had a 10-minute slot with Trisha Goddard on Talk TV - as well as interviews with various other radio stations including BBC Radio Leeds and BBC Radio Lancashire.

Man Manuals and information for men

Alongside our campaigning for policy change and Men's Health Week, we continued to focus on distributing our award-winning information for men as widely as possible. During 2022/23, we had more than 780,000 visits to our website at www.menshealthforum.org.uk. In addition, we circulated more than 45,000 printed manuals to men - via direct sale, via employers and via bespoke printing - with the Man Manual, Man MOT, Man MOT for the Mind and Beat Stress being the most popular.

In addition, we continued to reach people via X (formerly known as Twitter) with around 14,000 followers by the end of the year and had nearly 12,000 signed up to receive our emails as well as increasing numbers of followers on Facebook and LinkedIn.

One area with continuing high levels of participation are our forums on Health Unlocked, where over 31,000 people have participated to date.

Men's Health Champions programme

Our training programme continues to grow driven by the Men's Health Champions programme with more than 300 people trained as Men's Health Champions since the programme launched. This is supplemented by our Man MOT training direct to workplaces, Toolbox Talk training, as well as our new 'How to make health services work better for men' training.

We continue to publicise the training - mainly via email - although our lead trainer, Jim Pollard, also presented to the NHS Health & Wellbeing Champions conference in November about our Men's Health Champions programme and had a very positive response.

Working with others

In addition to our work on a Men's Health Strategy, we continue to work to in partnership on other issues where men's health plays an important role including via:

Separately, we are active members of Global Action on Men's Health, supporting their work to raise men's health as an issue globally and regionally amongst professionals and policy makers.

On the academic front, we continue to support:

while also taking part in more ad hoc events such as a round table on men and cancer organised by the European Cancer Organisation.

We also continue to engage on government policy issues and consultations, including:

We also have worked constructively where possibly with DHSC policy teams where possible, with a positive and constructive meeting the CVD Health Team at DHSC - which led to a workshop on July 1 to support the development of a cardiovascular disease campaign.

In addition to the materials widely used for Men's Health Week, we continue to support men's health via local government, most recently through participation in a joint Local Government Association panel on men's mental health at the Annual Public Health Conference in March 2023.

Organisation:

After more than 18 years of service as a Trustee, John Larkin, stood down in May 2022. We are very grateful for the legal expertise he brought to the board and, in his many years as Treasurer, his careful scrutiny and consideration of our finances.

THE MEN'S HEALTH FORUM

Report of the Trustees FOR THE PERIOD 1 APRIL 2022 TO 30 MARCH 2023

At the same time, we welcomed Ruth Pott, Annette Fenner and Ajanta Biswas to the board and their depth of knowledge and experience in across a wide range of men's mental and physical health research and inequalities issues.

The Forum continues to rely on its staff and associates to deliver its day-to-day work - particularly Martin Tod, our Chief Executive, and Jim Pollard - our Editorial and Creative Consultant and Lead Trainer. We are grateful for everything they do to drive the Forum forward.

Even today, too many men are dying too young

As we refreshed our evidence base for a men's health strategy, it reinforced, once again, the vital need for us to continue our work and continue the progress made during 2022/23.

In 2022, 19% of UK male deaths - around one in five - were before the age of 65.

Men are:

The number of male deaths per year overtook female deaths per year during the pandemic for the first time since 1981 and have stayed higher ever since.

In September 2021, the ONS reported the first decline in male life expectancy since the 1980s.

Society pays a huge cost for this - with 676,000 years of life lost every year in the working age male population in England and Wales (16-64), mostly through avoidable premature mortality.

Aside from the emotional and social consequences, this imposes huge costs in health costs, sick pay and welfare benefits and the economic and tax losses of lives unnecessarily cut short.

And it doesn't have to be this way: a sex- and gender-informed approach to healthcare and prevention will produce better results both for men and for women. Improving men's health is better for everyone.

There is plenty to do - and we look forward to working with our supporters and partners to help make it happen in 2023/24.

FINANCIAL REVIEW Principal funding sources

The principal funding sources for the charity are currently by way of grants, donations, training and sales of publications.

Investment policy and objectives

Aside from retaining a prudent amount in reserves each year most of the charity's funds are to be spent in the short term so there are few funds for long term investment. Having considered the options, the Trustees agreed that income be kept in a high interest account to ensure the best interest rates with immediate access.

Reserves policy

The Trustees have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets ("free reserves") held by the charity should equate to an amount that would enable the charity to continue its current activities for three months in the event of a significant drop in funding. This amount has been calculated at a minimum of £50,000. Should there be a significant fall in funding, it would be necessary to consider how this would be replaced or how activities could be changed.

At the balance sheet date free reserves were £4,825 (2022 : £25,438). The Trustees are more than aware that the current deficit of £45,175 (2022 : £24,562) is below the ideal reserves level.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006, incorporated on 16 January 2001 and registered as a charity on 5 July 2001. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. The Articles of Association were last amended on 29 November 2013.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

The directors of the company are also Charity Trustees for the purposes of charity law and under the company's Articles. Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association the members of the Charity are elected to serve for a period of three years renewable by resolution of the Trustees for a further term of three years.

The organisation has a robust recruitment system to ensure a broad skill mix on the Board. A skills audit of Trustees is periodically undertaken and in the event of particular skills being lost due to retirements, every effort is made to recruit new Trustees with the appropriate skills.

Knowledge of men's health is not essential but we require potential Trustees share the organisation's mission, vision, values and beliefs.

Organisational structure

The Trustee Board of The Men's Health Forum was made up of between six and eleven individuals who meet frequently during the year and are responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the charity.

Management responsibility of the organisation rests with the Chairperson, John Chisholm, who is responsible for ensuring that the charity delivers its strategic objectives as set by the Board.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees The Men's Health Forum

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Men's Health Forum ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the period 1 April 2022 to 30 March 2023.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 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:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  2. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

  3. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

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.

THE MEN'S HEALTH FORUM

Notes to the Financial Statements FOR THE PERIOD 1 APRIL 2022 TO 30 MARCH 2023

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity 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.

Financial reporting standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions

The charitable company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland':

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

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.

Raising funds

Costs of generating funds incorporate the salaries, direct expenditure and overhead costs of the staff who undertake fundraising work.

Charitable activities

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred on projects undertaken in pursuance of the charitable aims of the company.

Governance costs

Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include costs linked to its strategic management.

Allocation and apportionment of costs

Resources expended are allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly to that activity. Certain costs, which are attributable to more than one activity, are apportioned across cost categories on an appropriate basis.

Stocks

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

Donated services

Where services are donated which the charity would otherwise have purchased then such services are measured on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity and included within incoming resources.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Going concern

The accounts are prepared on the going concern basis which assumes that the business will continue to operate for the foreseeable future. This basis relies on income being generated in what is an uncertain climate for Charities. The trustees believe that income can continue to be received and that preparing accounts on the going concern basis remains appropriate in the circumstances.
