Structure, Governance and Management
Mid and North Powys Mind is a registered charity and a company Limited by guarantee, governed by a Memorandum of Association dated 13[th] July 2023.
Director recruitment and appointment
Directors are responsible for the control and management of the Organisation.
The Organisation seeks to ensure that the Board of Directors includes an appropriate range of skills and is also representative of different sections of the community. It also seeks to recruit and retain Directors who reflect and have knowledge of the issues surrounding mental health and the communities and area in which the Organisation operates.
The Associations Articles state:
-
All Directors shall be members
-
There shall be three categories of Director (Elected, Appointed and Co-opted)
-
The total number of Directors shall be no less than three. The Directors may appoint further of their number by annual co-option providing that the co-optees do not exceed two. The total number of Directors is not subject to any maximum.
Process
All New Directors will be appointed through a process of application, short listing and interview by a small panel, followed by recommendation to the Board of Directors. All Directors are subject to satisfactory references. Occasionally existing Directors or staff members may put forward names of people about whom they have knowledge and think may be interested and suitable to be approached by representatives of the Board of Directors.
3
All Directors are expected to give their time and energy freely to the Organisation.
All potential Directors should be aware that the law disqualifies some individuals from acting as a charity Director.

Financial Review
Incoming resources in the period were £1,358,690 of this £1,341,882 related to project restricted activities.
Our funding for the year has been received from the following sources – Powys teaching Health Board, Powys County Council, National Mind, Henry Smith, Moondance Foundation, PCC Housing Support Grant, Welsh Government, transforming Towns, Welsh Government Community Facilities programme, PAVO, Shared Prosperity Fund, Tesco, Newydd, Children in Need, Community Ownership Fund, National Grid and ACIS. Along with donations from various individuals.
During the year Mid and North Powys Mind has been able to offer a vast range of activities and opportunities to all our clients and the wider community. All service developments are undertaken after financial risk management to ensure the Organisation maintains its level of reserves.
4
The Directors have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the charity faces and confirm that systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen these risks.
Reserves Policy
It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the free reserves of the charity, at a level which equates to approximately six months unrestricted expenditure (closure costs). Due to uncertainties over consistent future funding for Mid and North Powys Mind, together with annual shortfalls of specific funding for projects, additional sums have been retained to enable projects to continue to operate. This provides sufficient funds to cover management, administration and support costs.
Responsibility of Directors
Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Directors to prepare accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing those accounts, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the accounts; and
-
prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Charities Act 1993. They 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.

Independent Examiners Report to the Directors of Mid and North Powys Mind
I report on the accounts of Mid and North Powys Mind for the period ended 31st March 2025 which are set out on pages 9 to 16.
Respective responsibilities of Directors and examiner.
The Directors of Mid and North Powys Mind are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Directors consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of The Charities Act 2011 (“the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. The charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a member of MAAT.
It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
To follow procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b)) of the Charities Act, and
-
To state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examiners Report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commissioners.
An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeks explanations from you as directors concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out on the statement below.
Independent Examiners Statement
In connection with my examination, no material matters has come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
-
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
-
the accounts did 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 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 accounts to be reached.
