Mental Fight Club Report of the trustees For the year ended 30 April 2021
Reference and administrative information set out on page 1 forms part of this report. The financial statements have been prepared on the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the CIO's trust deed, applicable law, and the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting by Charities (effective January 2015).
GOVERNANCE AND STRUCTURE
Founded, led and delivered by people with mental health experience, Mental Fight Club (MFC) exists as an openhearted collaboration between its teams, volunteers, and practitioners. With dedication, we work together to continue the high-quality delivery of Mental Fight Club’s projects. Our patrons’, partners’ and stakeholders’ unstinting support makes our work possible.
Mental Fight Club is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) and its governing document is a constitution. There is a recruitment process for Trustees including an application process, interview, references and period of shadowing on the Trustees Board. At the start of the 2020/21 period, MFC’s six trustees were Lamis Bayar (Chair), Grace Smith (Treasurer), Khaldoon Ahmed, Robin Hatton-Gore, Martin Ball and Elinor Wyn Hynes. At the AGM Khaldoon Ahmed resigned as Trustee.
Our Annual General Meeting was held online on 25th March 2021 due to COVID restrictions.
PUBLIC BENEFIT STATEMENT
The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit and publication by Charity Commission "Charities and Public Benefit".
Mental Fight Club is a charity founded, led, and delivered by people with mental health experience. Its charitable objective is:
“The promotion of social inclusion amongst people who are socially excluded from society or parts thereof as a result of mental ill-health, through the provision of creative events which foster social connection and allow for the exploration of mental illness, recovery and well-being for all.”
In fulfilment of its charitable objective, Mental Fight Club has continued its creative and inclusive approach to project development and delivery throughout the year.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Mental Fight Club runs three key projects, The Dragon Café, The Dragon Café in the City, and Re:Create Psychiatry, as well as a proliferation of activities, which undergird and amplify its work. The national lockdown restricted how we could pursue our charitable purpose, but we managed to provide weekly connection to hundreds of Patrons.
In the virtual community, The Dragon Café
Although Covid restrictions prevented The Dragon Cafe from physically meeting we have kept the community together with online activities.
Free and open to all, our pioneering project has welcomed Patrons near enough every Monday since 2012. In 2020-21, we celebrated 47 Dragon Mondays online together. After meetings stopped in mid-March 2020 we soon shifted to Dragon Cafe Connect online activi ties to engage with Patrons and new audiences isolated by the lockdown necessary to combat the pandemic. The move online was made possible by the digital expertise available within The Dragon Café Team.
Throughout Covid-19, the weekly programme brought new and existing Patrons together with over 8, 500 online views and registered attendances over that period for a range of activities. Encouragingly, we had new patrons joining our community of minds, which is heartening as it also connects them to the wider projects provided by MFC.
We continued to work over the year to strengthen our existing equality and intersectionality work yet more in order to support those who face the challenges of navigating mental health ill-health while also facing additional stigma through racism and homophobia- celebrating Black History Month, International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia and International Woman’s Day.
Amongst this year’s creative online programme highlights were:
-
At The Table - part of Healthy London Social Prescribing pilot
-
Southwark Rebel Woman - songwriting and performing on International Woman’s Day 8th March 2021 on Resonance Radio and London Bridge Business District
-
Great Get Together - Southwark Community Festival -radio broadcast including The Dragon Cafe Singers “Finding Our Way”
-
Dragon Mindfulness
-
Speaking out - improving confidence
-
Theatre

Mental Fight Club Report of the trustees For the year ended 30 April 2021
Initially the online provision was a live youtube programme going out every Monday between 3.00-m and 4.30pm, but in September we fully restored participatory sessions where people could talk and interact with the session presenters and activity leaders. Being online has increased the geographical spread of the participants and we now have people in different continents dancing with us on Monday's.
As part of MFC's shift to online provision, the Dragon Cafe Singers have been harmoniously getting together every week to enjoy a deepening social bond. Every week, they have been selecting songs from their repertoire as well as new numbers.
In the virtual working from home community, Dragon Café in the City
Similar to the Dragon Cafe, our collaboration with Shoe Lane Library and the Corporation of London continued online with regular fortnightly Wednesday sessions engaging with existing and new audiences
Over the year, we delivered 24 events, and over 135 different activities which yielded over 1,600 creative interactions. There were a wide range of creative activities including festive healthy eating, making of affirmation calendars, laughter therapy and discussions on challenging topics such as medication, wellbeing and fatherhood, modern masculinity , bereavement, anxiety and much more. Participants value the project. 87% of participants responding to a Dragon Cafe in the City survey agreed or strongly agreed that attending helped to improve their mental wellbeing.
In the Mental Health System, Re:Create Psychiatry
Re:Create Psychiatry (ReCP) e nables mental health professionals to better understand people who have lived experience of mental ill-health, and allows service-users to in turn better understand mental health professionals. To achieve this, ReCP curates conversations, which bring those who use mental health services and those who provide them together to collectively envision solutions to the challenges of the contemporary mental health system.
In April 2020, our ReCP conversations moved online. Online resources were being shared via the ReCP fortnightly newsletter and ongoingly via social media . Two monthly online meet-ups were organised and online workshops were held to develop an animated film, produced by Mindwick, about Covid-19’s impact on our mental health. This film was co-developed by people with mental health experience, health professionals, researchers as part of a Wellcome Trust grant.
In Education and Research, bringing MFC’s collective knowledge to bear
Mental Fight Club continues to work to create awareness of the pivotal role knowledge acquired through lived mental health expertise – personal and collective – can be made to play in contemporary society. In doing so, we engage with the spaces where new knowledges are

formed.
- Relate, Create, Integrate,
Support from the Wellcome Trust, continued during 2020-21. Artists with lived experience of mental ill-health are working closely with researchers to develop creative events and productions exploring thematics related to mental health.
In Training and Development
Opportunities for training for volunteers, staff and Patrons were limited to online provision and groups. These were run in July and December 2020.. MFC contractors also accessed one to one support and supervision provided by Moving Pieces
- An Ethnography of The Dragon Café
Josephine Bardi, PhD student at the School of Health Sciences, University of Nottingham, continued her study of The Dragon Café. Funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), the research takes the form of a detailed ethnography that seeks to illuminate the ways in which The Dragon Café functions as an enmeshing of place, people and processes. Josephine completed her PhD in 2021.

We thank our funders over the last year who have been so very supportive of our activities and flexibility in their funding to allow us to continue to provide our wellbeing activities online.
Going Concern Statement
The Trustees consider that the charity is likely to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from the date of which the financial statements are approved for the following reasons:
-
MFC holds unrestricted reserves of £60,560 which is 3 months’ running costs
-
MFC holds designated reserves of £19k ring fenced for MFC events
-
MFC has a cash balance of £227k (As at August 2021)
The Trustees therefore consider it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis for the preparation of the accounts as detailed in note 1b to the financial statements.
Reserves policy
We continue to be a going concern as we secure and apply for funding required to sustain and grow Mental Fight Club’s activities in 2022/23. Our reserves policy is to have a minimum of 3 months running costs in unrestricted funds, which is £60k. Our unrestricted reserves currently are £61k.
Mental Fight Club has a risk policy and assessments which are reviewed by the Trustees. The principal risks and uncertainties identified by the charity are:

Depending on the situation, which at the time of writing continues to be unpredictable,this may continue beyond January 2022. The Trustees are considering safety first and foremost.

STATEMENT OF RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES
The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with 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).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and the incoming resources and application of resources, including the net income or expenditure, of the charity for the year. In preparing those 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 accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
❏ state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
❏ prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the constitution. The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charity's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Mental Fight Club Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 April 2021
__________
1. Accounting policies 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 in 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).
Mental Fight Club meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.
b) Going concern basis of accounting
The accounts have been prepared on the assumption that the charity is able to continue as a going concern, which the trustees consider appropriate having regard to the current level of unrestricted reserves. There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
c) Income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the items of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from the 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.
Income received in advance of provision of contractual services is deferred until criteria for income recognition are met.
Income from the sale of goods and services is recognised when the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred.
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 the economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised.
13
Mental Fight Club Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 April 2021
__________
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) Funds accounting
Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the 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.
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. These costs have been allocated between cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities on the following basis:
Raising funds 8.9% Charitable activities 91.1%
i) Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows:
Furniture and equipment 4 years straight line
Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £500.
14
Mental Fight Club Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 30 April 2021
j) 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.
k) 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.
l) Creditors
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.
m) Financial instruments
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
n) Accounting estimates and key judgements
In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The key sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are depreciation as described in note 1i) above.
