FINANCIAL REVIEW
The charitable company's incoming resources for the year ended 31 March 2024 totalled £3.172,061 {202>
£3.228.735). Resources expended totalled £3,227,346 {2023: £3,214,859), resulting in a total net deficit of
£55.285 (2023.. net surplus of £13,876).
At the year end, a pension liability arising from obligations to a multi•8mploy8r defined benefit pension
scheme has been recognised at a figure of £2,346 (2023.. £5,023).
Reserves pollcy
Th8 Trustees are very conscious of the need to act prudently wlth th8 administration of the funds of the
charity and assess the levels of free reserves they consider the charity should hold in order for all existing
and plann8d activities to be Ilnanced. Wlth significant amounts of money belng Invoiced to the NHS on a
monthly basis. there was also a need to hold r8S8Nes sufficient to cover any cash-flow issues when
payments from this source, or 81s8where. are d8lay8d.
The Trust88s ar8 also aware of the need to meet all contractual obligations if, for any reason. the charity had
to cease 8Ctivity and hold that th8 complex r8sponsibiliti8S th8 organisation undertakes must be supported
by an adequate level of reserves.
The trustees have a policy of re￿Iewing the levels of reserves each year. Sinc8 th8 prevlous yeavs revlew,
the Charty expanded in both workload and personnel. The trustees were of the opinion that the Charfty
should retain free unrestricted res8r¥8S to cover 3 months of ongoing expens8s and also have sufficient
funds to cover any closure costs should they arise.
As at the year ended 31 M8rch 2024, the figure in free unrestricted re5eNes (that is unr8Strict8d r8serv8S
represented by net current a5sets} was £1,115,759 (2023: £1,195.498) A r￿Ure of £77,926 (2023: £53,616)
is in restrictsd reserves 8nd therefore is not avai18ble for general purposes of the charity at the y8ar 8nd.
Principal Fundlng
The charlty generally remains dependent on funding from statutory sources, but these show a diversty of
funding streams. However, forecasts for the year 2024 - 2025 show a radically different weighting to
previous years, due to the news that the reprocurement exerclse for the NHS Talking Therapies resulted in
all lots in Kent and Medway being given to the private company of Vita Health Care, to th8 d8trim8nt of the
previous charitles. including North Kent Mind. Our organI5ation therefore had to readjust to a loss of
approximately 50% of it5 income. Because of this. foreca5t5 for 2024-2025 show income from rents and

PLANS FOR THE FUTURE
Future developments
Given the loss of fundlng from the NHS. North Kent Mind's Senlor Leadership Team and Trustees
Imp18mented several changes to ensure the regrowth of the organlsation. Thes8 Include..
A restructuring of the organisation wlth some redund8ncies and some retlrements.
An expansion of Counselling and Therapy seNlces to include a hSgher level of client contributlons.
Continued expansion of the CYP seNice to capitalise on funding availablè.
Man8ged expansion of the Supported Houslng Service to take on 8 new unlts mad8 avallable by other
providers closlng.
Cr8ation of e new Servlce Development Team.
Development of the organisations extemal Tralnlng Service.
Further Investigation and appropriate applICa￿On to any approprlate new funding opportunitles.
At the same time, the org8nis8tion is looklng to purchase the Almshouses in Dartford, which It has rented for
the last 30+ y8ars. The purchase of the Almshouses Is to be financed by a bank loan, and North Kent Mind's
free unrestricted reserv8s should not be advensely affected by th8 PLtrchase.

Charities SORP (FRS102).
We have also identified other law5 and regulations that do not have a dlrect effect on the 8mount5 or
d15c105ures within the financi81 statements. but for which compliance is fundamentsl to the charitable
company's operations and to avold material pen81ties, including General Data Protection R8gulation and
emplcyment law.
HavlThJ reviewed the laws and regulation5 applicable to the charitable company. w8 designed and
