## Chair of the Board of Trustees Report
2023-24 has been a year of successfully sustaining a period of growth with our varied contracts and projects, which our chief officer has covered in in her report. I would like to highlight a couple of areas in my report.
We again successfully achieved our National Mind MQM. This quality mark is proof that we meet a high standard in our governance of Burton and District Mind. This process means a great deal of time and hard work for our staff as well as carrying out our daily activities.
Secondly, and probably the most important achievement of the year was a purchase of 67 Branston Road from our landlords. Chris and John have supported us for the last 10 years. We cannot thank you enough for their kindness, help and generosity in achieving our ambition to own our own premises.
I would like to thank the trustees for their support and contributions over the last 12 months. A special thank you to our vice chair Kay whose experience, knowledge and support has been invaluable.
All of these achievements would not have been possible without the hard work and diligence of our amazing team.
A huge thank you to everyone in the Burton and District Mind family.
Ken Builth, Chairman
## Treasurer’s Report
Burton and District Mind continued to successfully increase its year-on-year income to £1.4m of which 78.8% is restricted funding.

New contracts also required us to increase our headcount by 75% (Recovery Workers) representing the main increase in our cost base. We now also own our registered office “Birkett House” which is part funded by a small mortgage. We continue to ensure that all other costs are managed to ensure value for money.
We have maintained our Reserves Fund of £68k, which covers our winding up costs should they be required. This is reviewed every 6 months to ensure it reflects the current structure/risk.

## Chief Officer’s
## Report
We were delighted to be the chosen charity 2023 for our Burton Mayor Syed Hussain. We’d like to thank Syed for raising our profile within the local community and inviting us to several events he organised as fundraisers throughout the year.
We successfully completed our Mind Quality Management review through National Mind. We were required to submit a considerable number of documents for scrutiny and host a site visit for a Lead reviewer, Peer reviewer and a Service user rep last year, it was a lot of work for the team. We are very proud of the positive outcome.
Anger Management counselling was added to our NHS funded talking therapy contract this year as a further option for the wider services provided by the Staffordshire Wellbeing Talking Treatments Service. We continued to provide a bank of NHS funded services in the community through other services such as Future Focus, Safe Hands and Safe Haven and we hope to secure a permanent home in Tamworth for Safe Haven Café next year.
After several years our Building Better Opportunities project ended on 30th March. BBO was a fixed term project funded by the Lottery and European Union funding. BBO helped support lots of clients overcome barriers with CV writing, interview techniques, retraining, returning to education and supported some clients back into the job market. We were fortunate to retain Amina our amazing BBO worker as she has taken up the role as main Office Administrator.
Following the growth of our services and volunteer team we increased our levels of face to face training this year. The team have benefited from Mental Health awareness, Autism awareness, Bid writing, Active listening, Personality Disorder and Mental Health First Aid training.
We completed the legal process on our property at Branston Road in May 2023. Purchasing 67 Branston Road was a huge achievement and a long-term dream for Burton and District Mind.

## Chief Officer’s
## Report
During our history we have rented 3 properties in 32 years of operation. Each move has been a great upheaval for our team, clients and service, and finding appropriate property for our operations has been a difficult task. Furthermore, renting property was an identified risk for our service and its operations. Through securing 67 Branston Road we have gained greater stability for our charity and an asset for the future.
Since our move to 67 Branston Road in December 2013 we have been supported by our wonderful landlords Chris and John Birkett. Chris and John have been a constant source of support for our charity and with the addition of their project ‘the Muddy Boots’ gardening project at the rear of 67 we have shared a joint ethos for the promotion of emotional wellbeing and community support. Chris and John gave us first refusal on the property when they made the decision to sell, and we were lucky enough to secure a mortgage to purchase 67.
Much to the surprise of Chris and John we renamed 67 ‘Birkett House’ in July as part of a grand unveiling and as a way of thanking them for their incredible support and generosity over the years.
We have since completed some improvements to the building and with the removal of the old family bathroom we were able to redevelop some of the rooms to create additional and much needed office space and hot office space for our team of community Recovery workers.
It’s been a full year with many on-going achievements, this this would not have been possible without our dedicated team of trustees, volunteers, staff team and associates. Thank you all so very much for your time and passion for the work we achieve together.

## Operations Manager’s Report
A year has gone by, and we are continuing our face to face counselling sessions. We have experienced an increase of clients requesting face to face sessions rather than remote sessions. Much of our NHS talking therapy sessions continue a remote basis as this helps clients access the service more easily if they work, have caring commitments or simply would struggle to access the service.
Over the year while working with the Midlands Partnership Foundation Trust (MPFT) has rebrand the service and is now called Staffordshire Talking Therapies and rebrand our service within the service and we are now called the Counselling for Wellbeing Pathway. These changes has helped define our service with the Staffordshire Talking Therapies which has expanded beyond Cognitive Behavioural Therapies and has enhanced its work with the Counselling Pathways.
Our relationship with the Midland Partnership Foundation Trust has progressed and we are now also providing the Anger Management Pathway alongside the Counselling for Wellbeing Pathway. To support this additional work, we have employed a new counsellor Edward Degg for the Anger Management Pathway. This pathway has been building on the referrals and the clients that we are seeing within the service, albeit remotely at present but at some point, possibly moving this to a face to face. Our counsellors across the 2 pathways have continued to provide face to face, remote and out of hours work counselling across Burton and Tamworth with clients who have been struggling with their mental health. I would like to thank all the counsellors on these pathways in their continued hard work and support that they have provided for our clients on the MPFT contract.
Alongside our Counselling for Wellbeing team, we have also seen an increase of referrals in our Low Cost and Private counselling, this has allowed clients who after being given the choice of the NHS pathway have chosen to pay for their treatment.
Additionally, to this we have also had an addition to our team Rob Hallott who provides the new Coaching Pathway. This new service is running alongside the Low cost and Private counselling, clients are assessed for this pathway and then depending on appropriateness for the pathway are then allocated to Rob who has specialist training in Coaching.

## Operations Manager’s Report
Funding has meant that we are still reviewing the Young People’s counselling that Liz Matthews is currently providing 1 day a week at Deferrers School sixth form for another year, but we have not been able to secure any additional funding for this at present. We are currently reviewing other funding streams to support this work in the future.
A big thank you to all our Therapists Associates and Salaried who have continued to provide our counselling services to NHS, counselling and coaching to Low cost, Private, Thinkwell counselling for another year and have maintained the quality of work to allow clients to continue accessing the services that Burton & District Mind have to offer.
It has been another year of success for our Therapy team, and we are hopeful that the relationships that we have gained and maintained will continue to prosper, a big hank you to all who have had a hand in this, we couldn’t have done it without you.
“ I would like to thank Ed for his caring empathy. I found him to be a very good listener , I would wish it to be known that I found his whole approach very professional and friendly. Thank you and best wishes to the team. AB”
“ the counselling has been really helpful, the space to talk and be listened and I have already started putting some of the techniques into place, thank you so much, 😊 ”

## Development and Sustainability Report
## Keri Lawrence, Development and Sustainability Officer
## Overarching Goal
Burton and District Mind to increase sustainable capacity through geographical and community growth, income diversification and increased service user and volunteer involvement, in preparation for future Mental Health contracts.
## Foreword
## If 2022-2023 has been about Development, this next year needs to be about Sustainability.”
The Development and Sustainability Team has continued to grow and support new audiences. We made use of new systems to monitor and measure progress towards sustainability to ensure that the team is self-funding into the future. Two key developments this year include the development of an Older Adults Outreach service, led by Alzheimer’s Society (and funded through Midlands Partnership NHS Foundation Trust), and the successful completion of our Catalyst Community Fundraising Project (funded by Mind) which has achieved its funding targets and will continue to ensure we have resources to support community fundraisers in the future.
In addition, Emma Godfrey, Project Support Coordinator, has successfully applied for project funding for the first time, increasing the number of funding skills we have in the team. This provides a new model of working to expand the team in the future.
## As before, our key objectives are:
1. Community Help: East Staffordshire, Lichfield District and Tamworth
- Borough
2. Volunteer Programme
3. Commercial Modelling
4. Increased Capacity and Infrastructure
## Community Help: East Staffordshire, Lichfield District and Tamworth Borough
## Activity Projects
Over the year, Burton and District Mind provided 14 projects, and not including Older Adults Outreach, has supporting 115 people with wellbeing, self-esteem, and social connectivity
## Coproduction and Participation Opportunities
## Inter-charity Sports Day
On the 3 September 2023, under Amina Miah’s careful arrangements, we hosted our first ever Annual Retro Sports Day and what a day it turned out to be!
We saw lots of exciting activities, healthy fun competition and most importantly a lot of charity togetherness not only within our team here at Burton and District Mind but other charities from across Burton who came and took part. Throughout the day we had a total of around 130 people at the event.
Seven charities were represented on the day, with four of the charities providing a team.
Throughout the day we had 10 events such as Cups & Saucers, an obstacle course, a 3-legged race, Tug of War and even a Basketball shootout! Each event had the chance to win a medal. In addition. seven businesses supported the event with food and other activities. Although the day was not arranged as a fundraising event, it raised over £700 in funds.

## Sideways: Neurodivergence Steering
## Group
Between April 2023 and to conclude in April 2024, the Development and Sustainability Team arranged 7 online sessions as a steering group to explore:
- Connections between neurodivergence
- and mental health problems.
- Burton and District Mind’s approach to the matter.
“Involve lived experience to create the project as much as possible. Ask them what they would like and not assume what they need. Individualized care, covering the social aspect as well as emotional support while adjusting to a new/late diagnosis.” - Sideways participant
- Evidence of need regarding new services and developments.
The meeting group was well attended with 22 individuals representing themselves, their communities and/or their organisations throughout the period. A survey was conducted towards the end of the project with the following results:
As outcomes of this project, the Development and Sustainability Team commit to:
1. Developing a new neurodiversity workshop with a view to delivering this to workplace health and the community.

## – Eco Therapy

“I really got a lot out of today’s session. Felt good. Channelling controlled aggression focused all anger into the bat and sent that flying down the range. Excellent therapy.”

visualisations were great too.”

“It was great for having reasons for getting out of the home environment which was very stressful at the time of starting the course. It was like a haven to de-stress/Relax and unwind. The course has supported me with my self-confidence and self-esteem as well as my communication skills and relaxation. It has helped me to be punctual and on time for groups and be more organised. I loved Forest bathing and meeting new people. I would say to other people thinking of coming along, feel the fear and do it anyway, you might be pleasantly surprised. People are always made to feel welcome”

## Trent and Dove Floating Mental Health Support Report
John our Floating Mental Health support service has continued to work out of the Burton and District Mind office, as although the Trent and Dove office has reopened after covid, Trent and Dove have made changes to their offices the reception assesses to the building. John has benefited from being based at 67 and is able to gain support from our team of community Recovery Workers and other peers within our team.
This year John has accessed the Trent and Dove volunteers’ team to help support and maintain some client’s gardens and support with decorating where the client was unable to take care of these jobs themselves. The volunteer team have also removed unwanted items that can affect property condition to support clients with their tenancy agreements

John has helped improve client’s mental wellbeing and prevented loss of income, supported health related issues that can prevent clients caring for their homes. This post has supported over 150 Trent and Dove clients improve their health and wellbeing in the last 12 months.

John has supported clients with benefit claims and tribunals, to challenge DWP decisions, without this support clients who might otherwise have struggled to attend these meetings alone. Throughout the year John has also supported clients to link-in other appropriate local agencies such as Health and Social care, Burton Albion Community Trust, Places of welcome and Ecotherapy to name a few.
John has continued to be a vital source of support to Trent and Dove tenants providing his clients with the useful information, and assistance they need to improve their home environments and personal budgets and make improvements to their health and overall wellbeing.

## Future Focus Report
## 1 April 2023 – 31 March 2024
In its second year of operation, Future Focus has experienced significant growth. The team has expanded, including the addition of a language specialist Recovery Worker, Shakila Shaheen, who will assist the South Asian ladies referred by the Community Mental Health Team.
Additionally, Sarge Cockayne has joined as a Recovery Worker to support individuals whose mental health presents additional challenges. Prior to becoming a paid employee with the Burton and District Mind team, Sarge volunteered with us, highlighting the development of our volunteers.
Collaborating with the Future Focus partners has provided us with the opportunity to create new offerings tailored to our participants.
The Recovery Workers are continuously identifying local needs, and the partner organisations have begun developing activities to address these unmet needs, such as cooking groups for individuals and craft groups.
We frequently receive positive feedback from our participants as well as other healthcare professional, as highlighted below:
The team continues to implement creative strategies to help participants achieve their goals and enhance their quality of life, with personalized care at the core of our approach. We have celebrated numerous successes, including participants leaving their homes for the first time in seven years and starting new jobs.

and effort”
“I couldn’t have gotten to this point in my life without the support from Future Focus, the
talks have helped me massively, I can begin to see life differently, and the chats have given
me a different perspective on life. That I am not a bad person that I can’t change the past
that I can move on and build a good foundation and future for myself.”
“I have often had thoughts about things but I did not had anyone I trusted to talk too, no-
one who would really listen to me, not really listen, no-one to talk to especially at times
when I have been completely overwhelmed. I have found myself saying very often I’d never
thought of it like that and yes I can see why that would have happen or why others would
react to me that way, that my history isn’t who I am anymore, that’s has helped so much, so
thank you”
“I don’t think I would still be here if it wasn’t for my Recovery Worker. I have had really good
support and feel I can go it alone more now from being a broken person”.

## Safe Hands Report
Safe Hands has gone from strength to strength with the addition of a Deputy Team Leader to better support the out of hours service and team. Two additional part-time workers have provided additional hours to cover holidays and emergency cover and provide extra support the Safe Haven café team.
The team have developed strong working alliances with the Crisis team in the East and West localities. Training and development opportunities have been shared as a whole team which has allowed our team to build their knowledge and practice. Out team contribute to care planning and have been trained this year to complete basic observations on their visits.
A Safe Hands booklet has been developed for participants who are allocated to the Safe Hands service. The booklet continues simple techniques to support our participants recovery and useful pages of support contacts, organisations to build their own wellness plans for the future. This booklet will continue to be added to as the service grows, informed by our team’s knowledge and the needs of the participants the team support within the service.
We are look forward to new opportunities for the team and future developments with the addition of the new Mental Health Crisis Assessment Centre opening on the St Georges site in Stafford in Oct 2024. We are exploring new ways to further develop and deploy the Hands team through new opportunities within local mental health services.
Safe Hands are making a difference to the Crisis team and the patients using the service by providing a listening ear and giving time to talk, allowing the Crisis team extra resources to support more patients in initial stages of crisis. Our team are sometimes called upon to accompany a Crisis team worker on care planning visits, allowing to wider Crisis team to cover more calls. We have received good feedback from patients who have received the Safe Hands service and experienced positive outcomes from the service.
As we are a relatively new service, we will continue to adapt and develop the service to the needs of the community we support. We will continue to encourage good working practices and promote the work ethic and ethos of Burton and District Mind.
## Feedback from the Crisis team
“K was particularly grateful to B from Safe Hands, and said he found them to be empathetic and very supportive regarding supporting him and giving information for Andys Man Club. They were singled out for praise from both K and his sister”
“On today’s visit she praised Safe Hands for their ongoing support given to her. In particular named T, as so caring and compassionate and how their presence alone, was relaxing and enabled her to ground herself and begin to rationalise her own thoughts”
Just thought you should know of their amazing work with patients.
## Safe Haven Report
As we come to the end of the year, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on what we’ve achieved together at Safe Haven. It’s been a busy year, and we’ve got plenty to be proud of.
## A Year in Numbers
## Individuals Supported:
Over the past 12 months, we’ve had approximately 1,680 individual service contacts. Each person we’ve supported has brought their own story and challenges, and we’re grateful to have been there to offer support.
## Highlights and Successes
## More Than One-to-One Support:
We recognised that people were looking for more than just individual support. In response, we started weekly workshops, weekly yoga sessions and regular drop-in sessions. These have become valuable spaces where participants can learn new skills and connect with others.
## Wellbeing Wednesday:
We launched Wellbeing Wednesday, a 12-week healthy eating course. Participants learned how to prepare nutritious meals on a budget. Many have told us that they’re now cooking more at home and feeling better for it.
## Arts and Crafts Workshops:
We held several arts and crafts sessions, including resin workshops where participants made keychains, coasters, and stress-relief items. These sessions provided a relaxed environment for people to express themselves creatively. We also welcomed the team over at New Era, who joined our participants in creating a mural for a local bus stop. The bus stop was adorned by key quotes from our participants that serves as a message of hope to the local community.
