Achievements and Performance

	SORP reference
Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole.	Para 1.20	Over the past year Talkthru has seen sustained demand for psychological support following mental distress related to a pregnancy issue for both women and men. We received 99 referrals with 425 planned appointments. We continued to provide our service in a hybrid fashion offering service users the choice of in person face to face, phone or video counselling. This continues to offer greater accessibility for users of our service who may struggle to attend counselling in person due to poverty, childcare or mental health issues. 46% of appointments were delivered by phone. In line with our previous vision and strategy day and to achieve our strategic aim of moving our business model from work provided entirely by volunteer counselors to paid positions occupied by fully trained and accredited professionals, the trustees commissioned an outside agency to draw up a sustainability plan for Talkthru. We have been steadily working during the year to realise our strategic aims. For part of this year our counselling team was reduced due to health concerns however thanks to the valuable role of the counselling manager, Talkthru was able to provide care calls for clients on the waiting

list to ensure their safety and we were able to prioritize the most vulnerable clients. Talkthru continued it’s project with mothers who had had their babies removed into care. The Project Lead successfully liaised with the Public Sector and Third Sector to promote the new service. Women referred into this service have complex issues. Those that engaged with the service reported how beneficial it was to have time and space to process their thoughts and feelings and begin to make healthy lifestyle choices for themselves. In the summer we were able to host a network event sharing our work with members of the local social and health care community along with other third sector organizations. This event was highly valued by all attendants, and it is planned to repeat it in the future. Talkthru was successful in it’s application to become an accredited training placement for Masters counselling and psychotherapy students from Leeds University and has begun to receive students on placement. The Trustees commissioned a fixed electrical line report for Talkthru premises and took the recommended steps to bring the premises up to code, ensuring safety for both staff and clients.

Independent examiners' report to the trustees of Talkthru

I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31st March 2023, which are set out on pages within this return.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees 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.

It is my responsibility to:

examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act;
follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act; and
state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner's statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commission. 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 seeking explanations from you as trustees 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 in the statement below.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the trustees' requirements:

to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act have not been met; or

(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
