REPORT OFTHE TRUSTEES
For the Year Ended 31 March 2024
The trustees, who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Att 2006,
present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2024.
The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of
Recommended Prattice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the
Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland IFRS 1021
{effective l January 20191.
Chair Statement
It has been another exciting and evenrful year for Changes as we continue to attract more members
from across Bristol, ensuring we reflect the rich diversity of the Bristol community. This has been
achieved not just by the hard work and dedication of our staff. but also our volunteers and trustees
who give up an incredible amount of their time to Changes. Without this commitment and
dedication from our volunteers and trustees, Changes would not be able to deliver the great service
that it does and is recognised for, so a big thank you to you all.
This year is the end of my second year as Chair of Changes and I want to use this opportunityto
thank my fellow trustees for the considerable amount of time and dedication they have given to
Changes over the last year. l also want to thank Alessandra and Louisa- our two co-directors- who
worked with the board and myself. and to the all the staff who have played such an important role in
the Charity. As I have mentioned already the board is incredibly grateful for the work of both staff
and volunteers. With that in mind, the board started work with Alessandra and Louisa to set out a
strategyfor supporting both volunteers and staff in terms of training and support that we hope we
can report back on in more detail next year. However, suffice it to say the intention is to ensure
volunteers and staff continue to feel supported and trained, and confident to deliver high quality
services that we have come to expect from Changes Bristol.
There have been some staff changes over the year and it is always sad to see staff leave. However. I
wanted to acknowledge that Louisa Woods- one our co-direttors- left this year to move on to new
ventures. Louisa was a keyfigure in driving through a number of initiatives as we looked to review
and modernise governance processes at Changes. l am very grateful to her for the time we spent
working together and we all wish her well for the future.
During this last year, we have said goodbye to a number of trustees.. Cecile Biscotte, Joshua Bundy,
Lasani Wjetunge. Tom Hartnell. Hannah Roddis and Jess Brydon. While all those leaving have played
an important role over the time they were trustees. I want to place on record the board's particular
thanks and best wishes to Jess Brydon who was a long-time member of the board and before that a
group facilitator. She was the acting Chair when I was appointed two years ago and played a key role
in helping me to settle in. for which I will always be grateful.
We also welcomed in three new trustees: Meg Waters. Matt Dunderdale and Miriam Khan who
bring a rich and diverse set of experiences to the board.

As a mental health charity, we were particularly pleased to be awarded a contract from the Sunrise
Foundation Multiyear Grant for student engagement. The grant allows us to work more closely with
young people to support their mental health awareness by offering volunteer training to young
people.
Finally, the board have been working on several projects over the year, a key one has been reviewing
and updating the Articles of Association {the charitys constitution as required by the Charities
Commission). I hope to be able to report back in full at the next AGM and in next yearfs report on
how that has developed.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and Aims
The provision of mental health support for the area of Bristol and the surrounding area including
residents of South Gloucestershire. North Somerset and BANES. Changes Bristol Ltd provides its
support through the provision of peer support groups following a structure originally developed by
Changes Stoke and other types of peer support and mental health education.
Mission Statement
Changes will be recognised as an accessible and effective mental health service. Changes aim to
promote the recovery and mental wellbeing of those in mental distress in Bristol and the
surrounding area.
Core Values

Diversi
and Inclusion
We seek to ensure our community is inclusive, free of harmful power dynamics and representative
of the population we serve. All of our services are 'safe spaces. but we have created dedicated
spaces for Women of Colour. Men of Colour, LGBTQIA+ individuals, women and men, as we
understand that these communities all face unique and nuanced challenges.
Alessandra Gava and Louisa Woods led the Charity as CcpDirettors over this year with Louisa Woods
departing Changes Bristol at the end of March 2024. Louisa's contributions to the running of and

development of Changes Bristol will be missed by all. Alessandra Gava became full time Director at
the beginning of March 2024. In January we were delighted to appoint a new Head of services, Liam
Cooper-King, to oversee the operational running of our services.
We held a well-attended AGM in March 2024 with our special Guest Speaker and founder of
Changes Bristol Richard Pearce which also celebrated our 20th anniversary with our members.
Signrficant Artivities
Strategic targets achieved in 2023124 included-
Continued support from The Henry Smith Foundation whose grant covers core costs that Sustains
the further development of the charity
Responding to the impact of the Cost of Living Crisis on wellbeing
Continuation of online support groups in line with demand.
New Student and Community Engagement projett with the award of a multi-year grant from The
Sunrise Foundation.
Continuation of support groups for groups of a specific characteristic online as requested by
members including a Women's group, Men's group, LGBTQ+ group and the Women of Colour

-continuation of the South Bristol peer support service, with 4 groups and provision of safe support
groups to meet the needs of the community as requested by citizens of South Bristol and
commissioned by the BNSSG Integrated Care Board {ICB), the Inner City and East City Centre Group
and the opening of a peer support group in North Bristol commissioned by the ICB.
Continuation of the Befriending Service for mental wellbeing through the Bristol City Council
Impact Fund.

Continued improvement in training and supervision provision to our volunteers.
Public Benefit
The Trustees have complied with their duty under Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due
regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.
Volunteers
Key to the ethos of Changes Bristol is the use of volunteers in the delivery of the service.
Without volunteers our services could not run. 103 volunteers were involved in the delivery of the
services of the charity over this year as Befrienders, Peer support group facilitators, Trustees and
Marketing & Comms and Fundraisers. We strongly encourage service beneficiaries to become
volunteers in order to continue their own wellbeing recovery and assist in the development of the
service. We recruited new members of staff and volunteers to facilitate additional peer support
groups and trained an additional 31 volunteer befrienders and 47 volunteer facilitators over this
period.
Some feedback from our volunteers:
On Befriending:

"From my end of the phone, itjust seems like such a simple but incredibly effective way of making a
connection with those who genuinely need it. I feel the UK can be quite a lonely and isolating place
{coming from Ireland myself) so anything we can do to make it friendlier is so important!"
'Wolunteering with Changes Bristol as a befriender has been really rewarding. I have built up a
strong bond with my'befriendee, and I have seen improvements in their mental health since we first
started chatting. Also a shout out to all the staff who are so supportive of their volunteers and
ensure they are always comfortable in their role.-
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Jen Witts Nature Facilitator and Project Worker
One of my favourite aspects of my role at Changes is building strong relationships in our community.
We've been privileged to enjoy many extracurricular activitiesltrips in the last year and have built
new and strengthened existing partnerships.
All of them have been special and meaningful in different ways. The mural project with People's
Republic of Stokes Croft was an amazing opportunity for our members to get creative, learn new
skills and spread awareness about mental health and our work in the City. We were all really proud
to see it displayed with its bright vibrant colours in such a prominent place in Bristol. It was also the
first time that PRSC had worked in this collaborative, co-created way and they really enjoyed the
deeper connections it gave.
Bristol Ferries have taken us out several times now, it's been a unique opportunity for (sometimes
lifelong} residents to see the City from a different perspective and enjoy the calm of being on the

water. They also generously gave members free day tickets to have a trip in their own time, which
they found really special.
Our trip to Westonbirt Arboretum was part of an ongoing project and relationship. Many members
braved the freezing downpour in January to be one of the first groups to plant trees in their new
Community Woodland. It had the excitement of a school trip as we took the coach larranged by
Westonbirt) to the site and planted 85 trees! It would have been 100 but they ran out of plastic
guardsl
The final trip was to see the Wildlife Photography Exhibition of the Year at Bristol Museum. we had a
lovely time enjoying the phenomenal pictures and discussing them afterwards. This was part of my
commitment to securing Keep Going Keep Growing as a weekly group throughout the winter, as we
had been faced with moving to fortnightly sessions due to lack of funding. As part of this endeavour
l also secured some free hire space at Bridge Farm and low cost hire for the roundhouse at
Springfield Allotments.
All of our members had such a good time at the events and outings. it was a joy to witness the ease
in which people chatted away, got Stuck into new tasks and found exciting new interests. I'm always
on the lookout for new ways for our members to connect with the amazing opportunities that we
have in the City and continue to expand our reach and connections.
In April 2023. Changes Bristol was successfully awarded a further two year extension to deliver peer
support groups for mental health in South Bristol and Inner City and East Bristol. We also received
extra funding for our online LGBTQIA+ and Women of Colour Peer Support Groups and funding for
peer support groups in North Bristol.
We developed a pilot for a series of in person peer support groups for our LGBTQIA+ and Women of
Colour Groups and we hope to build on this provision in the coming year.
The Cost of Living Crisis had a detrimental impact on financial. energy and food security and health
and wellbeing of people living in Bristol. having been awarded a grant to support people's wellbeing
we opened 6 new wellbeing groups across the city and provided 185 sessions in total.
We recruited 11 volunteers to support these groups who received an additional 'finance and mental
health training. that we developed for this project. We had hoped to recruit higher numbers of
volunteers, however one of the impacts of cost of living crisis was that less people were able to
volunteer and recruitment was a challenge. This is something that occurred on a national level as
less people had free time to volunteer therefore more staff were involved in the delivery of this
work that we had anticipated and ambitions had to be scaled down. These groups, however, worked
as intended to provide much needed support to people experiencing difficulties and we worked
closely with ou r partners Richmond Fellowship and the Citizens Advice Bureau Bristol to signpost
people to financial advice and support.
People attending these groups shared that they were feeling less depressed and feeling more
important
more conf ident in general and less anxious"
'less alone in my experiences and felt

understood and cared for by the community" helped me find or remind me of strategies to help mv
mental health and wellbeing"
The second wellbeing grant we were awarded in response to the cost of living commenced in
January 2024 which had a different approach in supporting communities. We were able to continue
2 weekly groups in the last quarter of the year and work more closely with 4 community hubs to
understand the different needs of communities and what would be of most benefit to them.
Our Befriending Service for mental health connected 150 people through weekly telephone calls and
walks. 43 Volunteer Befrienders made an hour phone call each week to support people in this
service. We had 951 walk attendances over this period joining 73 walks in and around Bristol. Our
walking groups have grown thriving communities with peer support at their heart. We are so
thankful to all our befriending volunteers who have given their time to support people going through
difficult periods, showing the importance of connetting and leaming from each other.
'My experience of the Befriending service has significantly reduced my sense of social isolation. It
has given me a focal point for my week to know that I have someone who will actively listen to me
and encourage me to talk in my otherwise quite isolated world experience. I think that Changes did a
very good job at matching me with a befriender that really brings me out of myself. and opens up my
mind to other opportunities and possibilities.
"How nice it was to talk to somebody every week and know that I could just talk to somebody. One
thing that was important was I didn't always want to talk about myself and we shared experiences."
Our peer support groups had 5477 attendances from 874 members. The group spaces continue to be
open access, with no referral or diagnosis required. We hold weekly groups around the city and
online, including our specific safe space groups for Women of Colour, people who identify as
LGBTQIA+, women and men.
Hillfields Group - Celtic Connection Fund Grant through the Quartet Community Foundation.
This group had 248 attendances between April 2023 and March 2024. 6 volunteers supported this
group by facilitating meetings and this group continues to be an important resource for the
community.
100% Felt less socially isolated. 75% increased social interactions. 100% had more positive feelings
Ifor example, life calmness, compassion. forgiveness. contentment, generosity).
100% Feel they can express themselves. 33 people said they were experiencing depression and 38
people said they were feeling anxiety on registration. Over the surveys during the lifetime of the
grant. 90% of members of this group said that coming to the group had benefited their mental
health with IO% not sure.
Over the year we have also been able to continue weekly groups that we deliver through the money
we raise through fundraising attivities throughout the year. We are proud that we deliver peer
support groups for mental health every day between Mondays to Fridays with a mixture of morning,
afternoon and evening groups. online and in person.
'Really friendly and welcoming no pressure but lots of support"

"Changes has helped me increase talking openly about my feelings"
"Changes have helped me feel less alone and more connected with other people. It gives me a space
to openly talk about my experiences and emotions without feeling judged. I feel validated and cared
about when I go to the group and if l am struggling during the week, knowing I have the group on
Tuesdays gives me motivation and encouragement to get to the group and gives me a space to talk
openly and honestly."
To promote positive conversations around mental health in the community we spoke at schools and
universities and we delivered mental health awareness training to loca I businesses.
The Green Social Prescribing Program across Bristol, South Glos and North Somerset funded an
extension of our Nature Wellbeing Group Keep Going Keep Growing delivered between our own
gardens at The Wellspring Settlement. The Trinity Centre and Boiling Wells at St Werburghs
Community Farm. This group supported people with their wellbeing by growing, crafting, gathering
around a fire and over the winter period we hosted indoor mindful art sessions. We were delighted
to return to the Boiling Wells site that Changes members had worked on when the site was first
developed so it felt especially good to return nature connections back into our services.
"I have noticed many changes in myself since I started coming to the group. It has helped me to
believe in myself again and grounded me so much. It has given me the confidence to go out and do
more things."
We are thankful for our VCSE Mental Alliance membership, sharing learning with other voluntary
sector mental health charities in Bristol and participating in strategic work to improve the sector.
Fundraising
We held a successful Make and mend, and raffles with the help of our fundraising volunteers.
Changes Bristol is grateful to all of the support from citizens, corporate partnerships and local
businesses who held events to raise money for the charity through running marathons, sports
challenges, and music events throughout the year. Our Christmas Big Give Campaign was
enormously successful which allowed us to continue to deliver groups that are not funded by grants.
We would like to thank the local businesses who pledged funds to our campaign and the Champion
Match Funders.
Service Monitoring
The Trustees provide oversight on the quality of services delivered by Changes Bristol and have put
in place regular reviews of service use. Changes use a number of methods to ensure the services are
delivered effectively and measure outcomes. outputs and indicators of wellbeing.
Service user feedback and member forums are used to ensure those that use the service are able to
influence its development. The Directors, Head of Services and Service managers and Deputy
Service5 Manager are responsible for monitoring the service. Senior Managers ensure these
processes are effective and that monthly reports are prepared. All services keep quantitative records
of service use and the number of beneficiaries and systematically collett feedback.
