OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
This financial year has been one of intense challenge for our charity. which provides essential health
and wellbeing services commissioned by both the NHS and local councils. As public sector funding
continues to tighten, the financial pressures faced by our commissioners have had a direct and tangible
impact on our operations and planning.
Throughout the year, we have seen increased delays in contract renewals and commissioning decisions
from both NHS trusts and local authorities. Budget uncertainty meanl that several projects experienced
delayed starts or came with greater expectations. Despite these challenges, we have worked diligently
to maintain continuity of care and support.
While income remained constrained, our costs have continued to remain high. Recruiting and retaining
skilled personnel has been very much a key concern for us. as we are conscious that we are unable to
malch the wages seen in parts of the NHS and private sector.
In response, we have implemented a number of cost containment measures, including restructuring
some service delivery models to increase eff iciency and renegotiating supplier contracts. Our employee
retention remains high and we have not had to make any redundancies in this period.
We also deepened collaboration wilh other voluntary and community sector IVCS} organisations,
pooling resources and creating joint bids where appropriale. This partnership approach helped unlock
new sources of grant funding, particularly from charitable trusts looking to supporl integrated health and
social care pilots.
Our efforts to make the charity less reliant on the NHS and local authorities are growing. as we promote
our training to new sectors across a wider geography. With a major focus on supporting Corporates,
Education and the Public Sectors. we have secured two national contracts, providing Mental Health and
Wellbeing support across the UK.
We have, however, noticed that the new Government has created fiscal uncertainty which has had an
impact on corporate spend. This has also had an impact on our more structured approach lo fundraising,
which has experienced its own challenges during the year.
As an organisation, we remain committed to our current vision, mission and values to ensure we remain
relevant to the people we seNe. as well as our stakeholders and supporters.
Our mission and goals aim to provide the structure and purpose of our plans, reflect our commitment to
sustaining and developing partnerships. and ambition to provide broader, wider reaching services to
address the greater need for support.
The objectives of the Association are=
to promote the preservation and the safeguarding of mental health
to promote mental and general wellbeing
to promote the relief of persons suffering from mental disorder
Vision.. Improving emotional health, transforming lives.
Mission.. Where everyone has access to the emotional wellbeing support they need to lead a healthy
and rewarding life.

thal the existing aims and values meet the requirement sel out for small charities. A review of the
mission aims, and core values has been undertaken, and it is fell that they remain relevanl to the
charity's purposes.
Mental illness makes no distinctions. and neither does the Kaleidoscope Plus Group. Since KPG

well-being in society. and wilh Ihe combination of Covid and the cosl of living crisis, more people are
seeking help. KPG works in an environment where our services are needed more than ever, and our
independence allows us lo have a greater impact.

About 20/0 of people have severe mental health needs. with the complexity of needs increasing
1 in 3 adults with menlal health needs is due to adverse childhood events
1 in 5 young people have a diagnosable mental health condition

external factors that will continue to impact our activity and also provide opportunities.

New solutions and systems thinking is required for skills shortages. system failures, and
increasing demands

monitor our performance against both contractual and sector expectations across all service areas to
ensure that effective services are implemented, any gaps are easily identified, and work with a wide
range of Commissioners to develop appropriate inteNentions.

Financial Review
For the yearended 31 st March 2025, the Charity's operations resulted in an overall net deficit of £81,234
{2024= £156.273 deficit). The deficit primarily arose from the cessation of contractual income and a
reduction in revenue generated through fundraising activities. Consequently, this led to an operating
deficit of £84,63812024'. £201,136). The results for this period include legacy income of £170,000, which
provided a significant one-ofl contribution to overall performance. Recognising the non-recurring nature
of such income, the Charity's 2023-2026 business plan places a strong emphasis on income
diversification and long-lerm revenue gr0￿h lo ensure financial sustainability.
Reserves and Investment
We hold unrestricted general reseNes to provide cover for unexpected changes in income and
expenditure, allowing us to continue key activities in the event of-
A temporary loss of income, giving time to adjust the business model or source other income
streams.
Manage short-term financial commitments the Charity is exposed to in the event of loss of
income.
Unrestricted reserves are those funds which are not committed to specific projecls or set aside forfulure
use. The Trustees aim to ensure that unrestricted reserves are maintained at a minimum level of
£1,100,000. This is based on a review in March 24 of the reliability of the charity's income streams, and
the extent to which expenditure is committed. as well as the major risks to which the Charity is exposed.
Trustees have set a target level of reserves at £1,300,000. At the end of the financial year, the reserve
level was slightly below the target. with the unrestricted reserves. excluding Designated Funds, being
£1.257,118 (2024: £1,399,914)-
Investments
Quilter Cheviot manages the multi-asset portfolio of equity, fixed interest and alternative investments
in accordance with their ethical investment and medium risk policy. The ethical restrictions apply and
they manage the porttolio within the agreed asset allocation bandings, they report on a regular basis to
the Board of Trustees. The agreed bandings for 202412025 were.
Fixed Interest
20to40%
UK Equities
20 to 35°/.
Overseas Equities 25 to 35%
Alternatives
O to 250/.
KPG investments are benchmathed against the MSCI WMA Private Investor Income index. However,
typically we also compare against our peer group composite as reported by ARC. The corresponding
benchmath to the Kaleidoscope's QC portfolio is ARC Sterling Balanced Asset. Over the long term, the
portfolio remains comfortably ahead of ARC over a 3- 5- and 10-year periods.
Following recommendations from Quilter Cheviot, at the May 2025 FAR Committee meeting the
Board revised the bandings for 202512026.
Future Operations
The Kaleidoscope Plus Group is continuing a process of an on-going service review to ensure Ihal
relevance of service and qualily, remain a key focus. The charity is making excelleni progress in
developing ils commercial work in the wider geography and into new seclors.
The current cost of living crisis is likely to conlinue to have an impact on the charity and its staff and as
set out in the Charity's 2023-2026 three-year strategic plan the trustees and leadership are seeking
ways to ensure income generalion and diversification remain a f(￿US.
Despite the challenges, contractual targets and relationships with commissioners remained strong with
commissioned income continuing and some contracts confirmed and extended, therefore not materially
affecting the Kaleidoscope Plus Group which remains to be a going concern.

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 Irustees with respect to going concern are described
in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, olher than the financial
statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information
contained within Ihe Annual Report. Our opinion on Ihe financial statements does not cover the other
information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly staled in our report, we do not express any
form of assurance conclusion thereon.

(continued)
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. and to issue an auditor's report 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 the 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 misstatemenls in respect
of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting
irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
We have considered the nature of the sector, control environment and the Charity's performance"
We have considered the results of our enquiries of management and the Trustees in relation to
their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities-
We have reviewed the documentation of key processes and controls and performed walkthroughs
of transactions lo confirm thal the systems are operating in line with documentation-
We have identified any matters having obtained and reviewed the Charity's documentation of their
policies and procedures relating io:
identitying, evaluating and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were
aware of any instances of non-compliance.
detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any
actual, suspected or alleged fraud-
the internal controls established to mitigate risks of fraud or non-compliance with
laws and regulations-
We have considered the matters discussed among the audit engagement team regarding how and
where fraud might occur in the financial statements and any potential indicators of fraud.
As a result of these procedures, we considered the OPFX)rtunities and incentives that may exist within
the organisation for fraud, which included incorrect recognition of revenue. management override of
controls using manual journal entries. purchase ledger, and identified the greatest potential for fraud as
incorrect recognition of revenue and management override using manual journal entries
In common with all audits under ISAS {UK}, we are also required to perform specific procedures to
respond lo the risk of management override.

INDEPENDEf+rf AUDITOR'S REPORTTO THE MEMBERS OF KALEIDOSCOPE PLUS GROUP
(continued)
We have obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the Charity operates
in, focusing on provisions of Ihose laws and regulalions thal had a direct effecl on the delermination of
material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The key laws and regulations we
considered in this context included the Charities Act 2011. Charity SORP 2019, FRS102 and the terms
and conditions attaching to material grants received by the Charity. In addition, we considered
provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but
Complian￿ with which may be fundamental to the Charity's ability to operate or to avoid a material
penalty. These included the Health & Social Care Act, data protection regulations, health and safety
regulations. employment legislation, the Code of Fundraising Practice and gambling legislation.
Our procedures to respond to risks identified included the following=
Reviewing the financial statement disclosures and lesting to supporting documentalion lo assess
compliance with provisions of relevant laws and regulalions described as having a direct effect on the
financial statements-
Performing analytical procedures to identity any unusual or unexpecled relationships that may
indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud-
Reviewing minutes of Trustee meetings-
Enquiring of Trustees and managemenl concerning actual and potential litigation and claims-
Performing detailed transaclional lesting in relalion lo the recognition of income. specifically grants
and legacies, with a particular focus around year-end cul off; and
In addressing the risk of fraud through management override ofcontrols. testing the appropriateness of
journal entries and other adjustments. assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting
estimates are indicative of a potential bias- and evaluating the business rationale of significant
transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business.
We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all
engagement team members and remained alert lo any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws
and regulations throughout the audit.
As a resull of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that not all irregularities, including a
material misslatemenl in financial stalements or non-compliance with regulation, will be detected by us.
The risk increases the further removed compliance with a law and regulation is from the events and
transactions reflected in the financial statements, given we will be less likely to be aware of it, or should
the irregularity occur as a resull of fraud rather Ihan a one-off error, as this may involve 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 vwM.frc.org.ukJauditorsresponsibilities. This description forms

Legacies Income
The recognition of income from legacies is dependent on establishing entitlement, the
probability of receipt and the ability to eslimate with sufficient accuracy the amount

evidence Ihal a gift has been left to them (through knowledge of the existence of a valid
will and the death of the benefactor} and the executor is satisfied that the propety in
question will not be required to satisfy claims in the estale. Receipt of a legacy must be
recognised when it is probable that it will be received and the fair value of the amount
receivable, which will generally be the expected cash amount to be distributed to the
Charity, can be reliably measured.
