Annual Report
ApriL 2022 - March 2023
“Thank you for delivering a fun and interactive session. We learnt there is always someone who will listen.” Feedback from Mental Health Awareness for young farmers.
## **Welcome**
The past year has been a hugely busy period for our organisation – with the need to develop new services proving critical given the rapidly changing world around us.
2022 – 2023 has seen the fall-out of the Covid-19 pandemic, and a slow transition back to a new ‘normal’. It has also seen a war break out in Europe, and a rapidly evolving cost of living crisis which has presented significant challenges for many people. All this is to say – the need for mental health support has never been greater.
During this period, we have committed ourselves to developing and delivering services which continue to put the holistic needs of our clients at their heart. We have supported 4,463 individuals with 14,394 attendances across our services. As we continue to face new challenges, we are devoted to fighting for the needs of our communities – forming strong partnerships which embody our vision, mission and values and ensure that our clients are at the heart of everything we do.
This year has also seen our new senior management team adapt and grow into new roles alongside colleagues across the organisation – furthering our strategic
ambitions. This has ensured that lived experience has been further embedded from the ground-up within our organisation – ensuring peer-driven service design is present in everything we do.
As we begin to focus more on developing services that are committed to meeting the emerging needs of the community, our dedicated and passionate staff and volunteer team continue to take challenges in their stride. This ensures we are providing the highest quality support for all of our clients.
**As we continue to face challenges posed by the everchanging mental health landscape, we are committed to making a sustained difference in the communities we serve.**

feedback from young people actively
shaping the breadth and depth of
support provided.

3,325 children and young people benefited from a range of targeted interventions, including Cognitive Behavioural Coaching courses and Wellbeing Support. In addition to the wellbeing support on offer, we have delivered several mental health awareness sessions for young people, encouraging greater awareness of crucial themes.
We delivered emotional resilience courses during this period, known as ‘Bounce Back’. On average, 95% of young people engaged in these courses said that they had helped to improve their wellbeing. We also provided one-to-one Wellbeing & Resilience Action Plans (WRAPs) during this period - with 81.53% of young people participant stating that sessions improved their wellbeing.
These targeted interventions were supported by a broad span of wellbeing activities which enable young people to build new skills, make new friends and develop their communication skills.
We also provided support to young carers, attended a school fair where we enabled young people to learn circus skills, and have also been involved in family fun days provided by Early Help in Maidstone. Alongside this we delivered a pilot Mental Health Awareness session for young farmers - allowing us to better engage rural communities.

How Our Training Is Used...
**----- End of picture text -----**
“I have stayed on the phone with someone who was very suicidal after a domestic abuse incident until the police showed up. I then gave her the 24/7 suicide prevention numbers for her to call if she needed to.”
- Feedback on how a Youth Suicide Prevention Course participant has used their training three-months on.
“I support someone with previous mental health problems and now a sudden illness and bereavement of family member. Noticed they were looking stressed/unhappy and asked them how they ‘really are’. Resulted in an open answer and not just a ‘fine’.”
-- Feedback on how a Youth Suicide Prevention Course participant has used their training three-months on.
“The person was very depressed and suicidal and turned up at my door in the middle of the night. I let them sit and talk about their thoughts. I asked what had made them want to end it all and he said he felt there is no point in living and has had enough. He has 2 failed relationships which happened in quick succession.
He told me he had 2 failed attempts recently when he was found. As he talked he spoke fondly of his youngest child and kept replaying a video. So I encouraged him to talk more about his sons. His mood improved. He was soon talking about up coming birthdays and he left feeling better. I listened more than I spoke. He is on antidepressants.”

## **Financial review**

Total income for the year was £495,773 with a net deficit being generated for the year ended 31 March 2023 of £233,746 (2022: net surplus of £147,194).

## **Funds held as custodian trustee**
No funds are held by Mid Kent Mind as a custodian.

## **MID KENT MIND**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023**_
## **Going concern**
After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.
## **Reserves policy**
The Charity Commission’s CC19 guidance Charity reserves: building resilience states: “There is no single level, or even a range of, reserves that is right for all charities. Any target set by trustees for the level of reserves to be held should reflect the particular circumstances of the individual charity. To do this, trustees need to know why the charity should hold reserves and, having identified those needs, the trustees should consider how much should be held to meet them.”
In the current environment where grant funding has become more sparse and charities are competing against each other for income like never before, the trustees of Mid Kent Mind have taken the decision that the charity work towards maintaining 12 months operating costs in their reserves along with all other expenses that would need to be met in the closure of the charity.
As Mid Kent Mind provide services to some of the most vulnerable people in our community that are vital in them maintaining their wellbeing and not meeting crisis points for their mental health, we believe, that any loss of services would need to come with long term warning over the period of a year so we could assist everyone to transition to alternate providers where possible and protect them from potential self-harm or suicide.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT**
## **TO THE TRUSTEES OF MID KENT MIND**
I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Mid Kent Mind (the charity) for the year ended 31 March 2023.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act).
I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
Since the charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of , which is one of the listed bodies.
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared financial statements in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn.
I understand that this has been done in order for financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
- 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or
- 2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
- 3 the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

## **MID KENT MIND**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**
## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023**_
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **Charity information**
Mid Kent Mind is a charitable incorporated organisation registered in England. The registered office of the charity is 23 College Road, Maidstone, Kent, ME15 6YH.
## **1.1 Accounting convention**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's memorandum and articles of association, the Charities Act 2011, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "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 2019). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, [modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value]. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
## **1.2 Going concern**
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
## **1.3 Charitable funds**
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
## **1.4 Income**
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.
Grants are included in the Statement of Financial Activities on a receivable basis. The balance of income received for specific purposes but not expended during the period is shown in the relevant funds on the Balance Sheet. Where income is received in advance of entitlement of receipt, its recognition is deferred and included in creditors as deferred income. Where entitlement occurs before income is received, the income is accrued.
Other income is recognised in the period in which it is receivable and to the extent the goods have been provided or on completion of the service.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)**
## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023**_
## **1 Accounting policies**
**(Continued)**
## **1.5 Expenditure**
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
## **1.6 Intangible fixed assets other than goodwill**
Intangible assets acquired separately from a business are recognised at cost and are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.
Intangible assets acquired on business combinations are recognised separately from goodwill at the acquisition date where it is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity and the fair value of the asset can be measured reliably; the intangible asset arises from contractual or other legal rights; and the intangible asset is separable from the entity.
Amortisation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Software 3 years straight line basis Website development costs 3 years straight line basis
Intangible assets in the course of construction are not amortised.
## **1.7 Tangible fixed assets**
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Tangible fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Freehold land and buildings 2% straight line basis on buildings Property improvements 10 years straight line basis
Freehold land is not depreciated.
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
## **1.8 Cash and cash equivalents**
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023**_
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **(Continued)**
## **1.9 Financial instruments**
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
## _**Basic financial assets**_
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
## _**Basic financial liabilities**_
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
## _**Derecognition of financial liabilities**_
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
## **1.10 Employee benefits**
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
## **1.11 Retirement benefits**
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

MKM owns the property at 23 College Road Maidstone, where it has its offices. Funding was provided by various bodies principally what was then called "The Maidstone Health Authority".
There is a restriction registered saying “No disposition by the proprietor of the land is to be registered and none shall take effect unless made with the consent of the Housing Corporation (being The Maidstone Health Authority), when such consent is required under the provisions of section 9 of the Housing Associations Act 1985”.
The property is held under the name of Maidstone Association for Mental Health Ltd, a company registered as an Industrial and Provident Society which was deregistered in 2001. The society either became or transferred its business to Maidstone and Mid Kent Mind.
Maidstone and Mid Kent Mind became Mid Kent Mind in 2018.
