Ensuring our work delivers our aims
We review our aims and objectives and activities each year by looking at what we have achieved and the outcomes of our work in the previous 12 months. The trustees report the success of each key activity and the benefits the charity has brought to those groups of people that it is set up to help. The review also helps the trustees to ensure the charity’s aims, objectives and activities remained focused on its stated purposes.
The trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity’s aims and objectives and in planning its future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives that have been set.
The Focus of Our Work
In the year 23/24 Mind in Salford has continued to deliver its innovative services. We confirm that we have complied with the duty in Section 4 of the Charities Act 2006 to have regard to public benefit guidance published by the Commission.
We have continued to focus on the provision of Advocacy across Salford and at Edenfield; low and medium secure units. We have also continued to deliver Advice services across Salford. We have delivered the peer support service as part of the Living Well pilot programme.

Achievements and Performance
In this year, we continued to see the impact of the cost of living crisis on people’s mental wellbeing. Our Welfare Rights & Debt Advice services has been busier than ever supporting people to deal with increasing debt, and fuel and food poverty in Salford.
The Salford Advocacy Hub has continued to work with large numbers of clients and in many cases with high levels of complexity. The service has still managed to exceed all targets and KPIs and has an excellent reputation with both commissioners and the heads of statutory services whom we work alongside.
The Mindfulness for people of colour programme had excellent outcomes in this year. Training people of colour to deliver mindfulness programmes in their local communities and receiving mentorship from experienced mindfulness practitioners who identify as people of colour also.
From June 2023 our Menopause project delivered training to 211 people in the form of taster sessions and open access courses.
We created a corporates partnership with Metrolink in Salford, raising awareness at Time to talk day events at train and tram stations and raising funds through clothing banks and donations.
Worked in partnership with Salford City Council on the creative health initiative.
Through funding from Salford City Council, we trained up 427 new Mental Health First Aid champions in the community.
We also became part of the Community Leaders Development Programme (CLDP) in Salford. With the aim to Connect with community leaders to improve access to population health services.
Our Strategic pillars working groups with our staff have continued to meet to steer and shape our organisation and place lived experience at the heart of everything we do. To this end, we have refreshed our vision, mission and values to reflect our goals and ambitions for the people of Salford and beyond:
Mission

For the year ended 31[st] March 2024
Financial Review
The charity’s turnover was £1,178,160 (2023: £1,397,168) in the twelve month period. This was predominantly achieved through the delivery of service contracts, and grant funded projects £1,105,294 (2023: £1,347,449) with the remaining income received from trading activities £32,020 (2023: £24,252), donations £35,906 (2023: £23,210) and bank interest £4,930 (2023: £2,257). The charity aims to continue to diversify its income streams.
Principal Funding Sources
Our service contracts are delivered for:
Salford City Council, Salford CCG, Greater Manchester Mental Health Trust, Salford Citizens Advice Bureau and National Citizens Advice (MAPS).
Our Grants are from:
Mind (National Association for Mental Health)
Investment Policy
Aside from retaining a prudent amount in reserves each year, most of the charity’s funds are spent in the short term. Any surplus made by the charity is being considered by the management committee in terms of opportunities for investment as a standing agenda item.
Reserves Policy
The Management Committee has examined the charity’s requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. It has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity should be a minimum of three months of expenditure. The reserves are needed to meet the working capital requirements of the charity and the Management Committee are confident that at this level they would be able to continue the current activities of the charity in the event of a significant drop in funding. The charity’s present level of reserves is £318,148 (2023: £374,148) (unrestricted funds less fixed assets and designated funds). This represents just over 3 months total costs. The trustees are aware that reserves have been falling in recent years. The level of reserves is still within policy, and the charity has been successful in taking on new projects in 24/25 which should mean that reserves will not fall further.
Plans for the Future
In 2024/25 we will be seeking funding to expand our LGBTQIA+ one to one therapy service as part of the Rainbow Mind partnership. We will be applying to the lottery Community Fund. We will ensure the expanded service caters for people with multiple marginalised identities and intersectionality’s.
We will continue to run our Strategic Pillar working groups with staff to embed Lived Experience at the very heart of the organisation. The groups will continue to inform the updating of our 5-year strategic plan. We will also update our Mission, Vision and Values to refocus are service delivery and campaigning work.
We will apply for funding to implement the ‘Money & Me’ programme as part of our Welfare Rights & Debt mental health specific service. This will allow us to do preventative work and carry out more financial capability sessions with clients whilst also addressing the mental health and the connections between the two.
We will develop our sleep project and apply for funding to support people in our community who struggle with sleep issues, which have a detrimental effect on their mental health.

Structure, governance and management
The organisation is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, registered as a charity on 10th April 2014 in England and Wales.
Mind in Salford has a Trustee Committee of not less than five Members who meet as a full committee on a monthly basis and are responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the charity. A scheme of delegation is in place and day to day responsibility for the provision of services rests with the Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
The charity was constituted as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) in 19[th] March 2014. The trustees are members of the charity, but this entitles them only to voting rights. The trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity.
All trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no benefits from the charity. There have been no expenses reclaimed by the Trustees from the charity during the accounting period.
Where new trustees are appointed they are given a formal induction to the work of the charity and provided with the information they need to fulfil their roles, which includes information about the role of trustees and charity law. New trustee roles are promoted through local and national volunteering websites and through local stakeholder networks. Applicants are sent a trustees pack and asked to fill in a trustee application form. Applicants are shortlisted by a minimum of two trustees and all shortlisted trustee applicants will be invited to have a phone conversation with the charity’s chair followed by an interview with at least two current trustees. New Trustees are appointed when they have the necessary skills and capacity to contribute to the charity’s management and development.
The remuneration of the personnel comprising the Senior Management Team (including the CEO), is set through our pay scale review document, researched and written 2 years ago by our external Human Resources consultants –‘Solutions for HR.’ The Pay scale review sets out the salary bands for senior management dependent on responsibility and experience. Each role and corresponding salary bands were bench marked against similar roles across the Third Sector locally and nationally to give us lower and upper brackets. The pay scales document is scheduled for review and update in August 2021.
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Statement of responsibilities of the trustees
The law applicable to charities in England & Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

They are also responsible for safeguarding assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Risk management

Independent Auditors’ Report
to the Trustees of Mind In Salford
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Mind in Salford (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and the related notes. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charity’s affairs as at 31 March 2024, and of its incoming resources and application of resources, 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 Charities Act 2011.
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 Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity 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 charity'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 trustees’ annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report 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.

Independent Auditors’ Report
(continued)
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 there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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 in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the trustees’ report; or
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 6, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of financial statements which 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 charity’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 charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act.
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 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 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
[continued …]

Doc ID: e974b50ddc7971a5081189e5b861a70a5b23ef40
Independent Auditors’ Report
(continued)
of irregularities, including fraud. The specific procedures for this engagement and the extent to which these are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
-
enquiry of management and those charged with governance around actual and potential litigation and claims.
-
enquiry of the charity's staff, management and those charged with governance to identify any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations.
-
reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.
-
reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
-
auditing the risk of management override of controls, including through testing journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, and evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2024 (continued)
1 Accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
a Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair view'. This departure has involved following 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) issued on 16 July 2014 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
Mind in Salford meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note.
b Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
No key judgments which the trustees have made which have a significant effect on the accounts.
The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

c Income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the charity that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.
Income received in advance of a provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.
d Donated services and facilities
Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised; refer to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution.
On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.
e Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.

f Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose.
Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity’s work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.
g Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
-
Costs of raising funds comprise the costs of commercial trading including Mindfulness, Training Service, Student Placement and their associated support costs.
-
Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of Advocacy, IMHA Advocacy and Welfare Rights and Debt Advice undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs.
-
Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
h Allocation of support costs
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs which support the charity's programmes and activities. These costs have been allocated between cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities. The bases on which support costs have been allocated are set out in note 9.
i Operating leases
Operating leases are leases in which the title to the assets, and the risks and rewards of ownership, remain with the lessor. Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.
j Tangible fixed assets
Individual or group of similar fixed assets costing £2,000 or more are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on a straight line basis as follows:
Asset Category Annual rate Computer equipment & software 20% to 33% Office fixtures and equipment 20%

k Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
l Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
m Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
n Financial Instruments
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are intially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loand which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest model.
2 Legal status of the charity
The charity is a charitable incorporated organisation registered in England and Wales and has no share capital.
