Objectives and activities

The charity's objects

For the public benefit, to promote and protect the mental health and wellbeing of men who are experiencing issues that are having a detrimental affect on their mental health and wellbeing by the provision of support and practical advice.

Public benefit statement

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular the advancement of health and the saving of lives.

Achievements and performance

Club Development

We are very proud of the way we handled the global pandemic ensuring that we could safely remain open to ensure our service continued. In 2021, 28 additional Andys Man Club groups were opened and welcomed to the family, which took the total support groups at the end of 2021 to 72 groups. In addition to this, the online platform was left running as we were still seeing men wanting to use the platform due to anxieties surrounding Covid and geographical issues on attending an in-person club. The online platform regularly sees around 100 men attending a week. By the end of 2021 we were recording numbers of around 1,700 men attending Andys Man Club support groups per week.

Due to the expansion of the clubs, we now have a volunteer base of around 450 men that donate their time to opening the doors of Andys Man Club groups. Everyone of our volunteers is also a user of the service. In addition to this our volunteers attend events across the UK, take part in media publications speaking out about their experiences and also deliver presentations within businesses and organisations to raise awareness of Andys Man Club.

Our volunteers are the unsung heroes of Andys Man Club and the dedication and commitment from them all is astounding. We have adapted our training process due to Covid and this has now been developed to be delivered online, which assists us to reach many more volunteers due to geographical location and has been pivotal in the development and growth of Andys Man Club.

Employees

In 2021 we increased our staffing due to the demand on the service. In January 2021 we put in place two additional employees, a marketing and communications champion; to work on advertising and promoting the service and to also assist with building partnerships and relationships. An additional project development champion; to help support the existing Andys Man Club groups and also to focus on the development of additional groups. This allowed the additional project development champions to split their workload and take a more focused approach on specific areas. In March 2022 a trustee resigned from their duties and joined the staffing team. This was a project development champion role and their focus is to oversee the Andys Man Club groups in Scotland, whilst also focusing on the development of additional groups. Finally in October 2022, we welcomed a part-time administration assistant to the admin. team to help support the increase in workload with administration duties. We ended 2021 with a staffing team consisting of 8 employees.

Trustee Board

In January 2021 Andys Man Club made two additions to the trustee board and welcomed a new charity secretary and a treasurer who have been detrimental to the development and governance of Andys Man Club.

Achievements and performance (continued)

Additional achievements:

Andys Man Club in addition to being registered with England and Wales Charity Commission is now also registered with The OSCR Scottish Charity Regulator.

Andys Man Club Halifax was awarded the Queen's award for voluntary service in August 2021.

Throughout 2021, Andys Man Club has formed many partnerships with businesses and organisations a few as listed are; Hallmark Cards, Royal Mail, Britvic and Asda. Currently Hallmark are producing an Andys Man Club greetings card that is sold within every Tesco in the UK. Royal Mail at present are sporting our logo on all their Yorkshire vehicles to raise awareness whilst we deliver presentations across all their branches. Britvic are supporting Andys Man Club with refreshments for the groups and supporting us with any events that we have. Asda is currently providing all of our support groups via their community champions with supplies of coffee, tea and biscuits. Our project development champions deliver over 100 presentations a month to a wide variety of organisations from businesses, third sector organisations to public services.

Our biggest achievement of 2021 is opening the doors of our clubs, continuing to provide support across the UK whilst opening more sustainable groups to support more men of the UK. Although we have 72 groups we are one club, with one aim, to help one guy, to save a life.

Financial review

The net income for the year was £154,281.

The financial position is monitored regularly. A medium term financial plan (MTFP) for 5 years is maintained and income /expenditure is reviewed by the Board at monthly meetings. Where it is considered that this has a material impact on the MTFP the plan is amended accordingly. As a growing organisation it is recognised that income needs to keep pace with that growth. The financial monitoring separates out income needed to fund existing costs from new income needed to fund expansion. This ensures that new expenditure decisions are only made when income and reserves are sufficient. Income is also monitored by geographical region each month.

At the time of signing these accounts, the charity has been impacted by the global Covid-19 virus. The trustees have reassessed the charity’s ability to continue for at least 12 months from the date that the accounts are approved and conclude that no material uncertainties exist that cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Reserves policy

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £647,075.

Andys Man Club holds reserves so that in the event of donations being reduced or funding being withdrawn by our current funders, there will be the capability to keep running whilst alternative funding is sought and/or to provide time to wind the affairs of the organisation prior to closure.

The amount held in the reserves account will be calculated with reference to changes in operational running costs that may have occurred in the previous year.

It is the charity’s policy to hold 6 – 12 months running costs (£184,943 to £369,886). This level of reserves will be reviewed on an annual basis and/or in the light of changes to our commitments.

Prudent budget assumptions were made for 2021 as the pace of recovery from the financial impact of Covid was uncertain. In the event income recovered better than anticipated, particularly in the last quarter, whereas expenditure on events, promotions and travel were still lower than budgetary provision. This meant that at the year end the level of balances significantly exceeded the reserves policy target. These additional funds will be used to accelerate the growth of the organisation to allow Andys Man Cub to reach even more men in need of support. The medium term financial plan will be kept under review to ensure that funds are utilised in a way that will best promote the objectives of the charity and maintain the level of reserves within the policy target.

Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2021

Plans for future periods

Our main priority is to reach as many men as possible on a weekly basis. To do this we have an ambitious growth plan which aims to increase the number of clubs over the next three years from 72 at the end of 2021 to 172, 282, 392 respectively. We will be ensuring that the staff and back office systems are in place to deliver this growth.

We also are refining our facilitator training programme to cope with the increased demand and to ensure our people provide the best service as well as feeling supported.

We will continue to expand our work with partners to get the message out that there is a place for men to talk and also to and to provide links with organisations that are able to compliment our work.

Statement of trustees' responsibilities

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards.

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company 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 charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. 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.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.
