## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 August 2025** 

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2025. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

Evolve is a charitable organisation, a CIO, working to improve the emotional and psychological wellbeing of its clients. Evolve conducts its mission to deliver counselling services to adults at the lowest possible cost, wherever possible seeking to subsidise sessions for those on low incomes. By working to grow and foster a membership body of professional counsellors, Evolve strives to improve access to quality counselling and psychotherapy for all, and to create a positive working environment for those in the profession. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

The Charity has continued to deliver high quality mental health counselling throughout the year to private individuals and the staff of corporate organisations. Evolve is continuously expanding its active number of counsellors, making training available to them to achieve better standards in the sector, and running an internal business improvement programme to help work to flow efficiently.

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Achievements** 

The Trustees set several objectives for the year, against which fair progress was made, despite the financial and operational pressures being faced by our key client sectors, and some internal personnel challenges making business continuity and efficiency difficult to achieve: In a year of mixed results, Evolve highlights the following. 

Efforts continued to control any deficit and to move Evolve into a surplus, with an unrestricted development fund on which to draw. Aiming for cost savings, Evolve continued to outsource basic business functions and kept a tight rein on other recurring costs. 'One -offs' - such as the high cost of interim support while Evolve was recruiting its counselling lead - were a regrettable but inevitable consequence of three unfortunate hires. These forced personnel changes and gaps undoubtedly hampered good service delivery to our clients, impacting on session numbers and a fall in revenue. 

As in the previous year, Evolve focused attention on key clients as a path to financial stability. In addition, Evolve initiated and pursued an opportunity for potential takeover of a similar mental health service provider, and for close collaborative partnership working with another. Despite stepping back from these, Evolve remains committed to scaling up and broadening its offer, to meet more clients' needs in a sustainable model. 

The need for revenue growth and to replace exiting clients cutting back on mental health support, began to be addressed in August with the recruitment of a new Business Development lead. Work was immediately put in hand to review and update current or maturing contractual arrangements, and to seek out new sources of revenue funding and charitable support. 

Evolve Trustees and staff met at their annual 'away day' - examining options for a development programme to be funded from surplus once a fair reserve target is achieved. Evolve agreed that further progress was needed to build a 'stable platform' - financial, people, and resources - from which to launch innovative new lowest cost/highest quality/easiest access mental health services. 

A rolling programme of Trustee recruitment was launched to successfully bring the governance board up to full strength, aiming for a mix of specific counselling knowledge, business skills, charitable and public sector knowledge, and external contacts and networks to help the Evolve team. 

After launching Evolve's first volunteering programme in 2023/4, further recruitment took place securing new voluntary assistance for tasks including projects support, finance, fundraising, communications, marketing, and sales development. Evolve has been favoured with very dedicated and competent individuals freely giving their time since this programme started. 

Recognising there was scope to bring better control and performance management into the Operational/Service Delivery facets of Evolve, the key Head of Counselling post was, after two unsatisfactory appointments in 2024, restructured as Clinical Services Coordinator from December. Evolve's Trustees and CEO commend the immediate improvements accomplished by Hazel Bowyer-Adams in this new post. With this appointment achieved its was at last possible to carry out a business systems review and improvement programme, towards the end of 2025, which will enhance clients' and counsellors' experiences of Evolve. 

A fair amount of progress was made in all the above areas, despite the huge financial and operational pressures being faced by our key client sectors across this year. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial review** 

Total income received during the year was £182,967 compared with £257,608 in the previous year. The Charity generated a deficit of £1,510 compared to a surplus of £15,773 the previous year. As a registered charity, Evolve is exempt from Corporation Tax and Income Tax on its charitable activities. 

The Trustees have set a budget for 2025/26 that continues the sound financial footing and prepares to expand the charity's activities.

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 August 2025** 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Reserves policy** 

The Trustees' policy is to maintain a sufficient level of general reserves to enable the Charity to continue to support those clients with whom its counsellors are already working. The number of sessions this requires varies from time to time. The Charity also needs to allow for an orderly curtailment of activities and its commitments to staff and suppliers and so has designated a fund for this purpose during this year. The estimated free reserves required varies and is recalculated annually and this policy is reviewed on an annual basis. 

As of 31 August 2025, the Charity held £63,531 of unrestricted reserves, £35,000 of which is designated by Trustees to cover the costs of ensuring all current clients can receive their full treatment. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Structure** 

Evolve Counselling is registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) with charity number 1181861. The Charity is an organisational member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). 

Evolve is a membership organisation. Membership of the CIO is restricted to trustees and members; counsellors working for us who have applied and been appraised for having sufficient training, personal therapy, and experience to provide counselling to the Charity's clients. 

The Charity delivers high quality counselling through its counsellor members. The Charity's primary areas of operation include Cambridgeshire, Peterborough, South Lincolnshire, Rutland, Northamptonshire, Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Norfolk, and Suffolk as well as online throughout the UK. 

Counselling services are available at lowest cost to individuals aged over 18 years of age, and mental health training and awareness sessions are provided to organisations on a contractual basis. The latter clients include NHS trusts, not-for-profit organisations, local councils, and corporates of all sizes. The surplus from these contracted services allows the Charity to support those who could benefit from counselling but cannot afford the cost of fees charged by counsellors in private practice or wait for NHS care. Counselling sessions for fee-paying clients are provided on a sliding fee scale, based on client income. Evolve could not operate without the dedication and commitment of its counselling members, who offer counselling services to the Charity's clients at counselling payment rates lower than they could achieve in private practice. 

## **Governance** 

The Trustees are responsible for the affairs of the Charity, and those who held office during the year are listed above. Evolve is governed according to a written constitution, this requires a minimum of three and a maximum of ten trustees. New Trustees are recruited through open advertising to both existing counsellors and the wider public. They have been particular in their diligence ensuring that work has been undertaken ethically in line with British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) standards. 

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, 'Charities and Public Benefit'. The decisions of the Trustees are supported, delegated to, and carried out by, a professional CEO. 

## **Management** 

The Trustees are supported by a full-time Chief Executive Officer (CEO), who in turn leads a Clinical Services Coordinator (CSC), a Business Development Lead (BDL), and a varying roster of dedicated and skilled volunteers who assist in developing the charitable mission. Management work is supported by various committees, which bring together trustees, paid staff, volunteers and from time to time, external experts.

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Risk Management** 

The trustees monitor risks at each Board meeting through a comprehensive risk register. All aspects of corporate risk are considered in the four separate Committees (Public Benefit & Funding; Finance Governance & Risk; Clinical Standards & Development; Operations & Management), implementing procedures to mitigate any potential impact should those risks materialize. Overall Risks and mitigation are then reported and considered at FG&R, and thus upwards to the main Trustee Board. With renewed focus on risk being 'owned' by Trustee Kat Buniel and the procedure above, Evolve is satisfied with its risk profile.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Evolve Counselling** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Evolve Counselling ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 August 2025. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

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: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). 

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 accounts to be reached.
