Trustees’ Report for the year ended 31 March 2023 (cont’d)
Beder Mirjan Limited (Company number : 11958311)
Beder Mirjan Limited is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Beder (CIO). The figures of the subsidiary are consolidated within these financial statements. The company’s details for the year are set out in note 12.
The officers of the Company during the year were:
Abdul Razzak Mirjan – Director Karon Cook - Secretary
Structure, Governance and Management
Governing Document
Beder was formed and registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation in January 2020 and is governed by its constitution dated 20[th] January 2020 and updated on 14[th] January 2021. It was established with a mission to prevent suicide and preserve and protect the mental health of young people and adults in particular through partnering and supporting mental health and suicide prevention charities in the UK. It also works to provide opportunities to increase awareness of mental health issues with young people and adults in the UK through joint initiatives.
Organisation
The charity is administered by a board of trustees, who meet quarterly.
Appointment of Trustees
Any proposed trustee appointments are put forward by a member of the board of trustees for consideration during a trustee meeting. Each proposed trustee is approved or declined by the majority of the board of trustees. Upon the board of trustees approving a trustee appointment then the appointee is offered the appointment as a trustee of Beder.
Trustee Induction and Training
We encourage trustees to independently undertake any mental health and suicide prevention training such as the Mental Health First Aid training courses.
Objectives and Activities
Beder was set up as a legacy to 18 year old Beder Mirjan, who sadly passed away after taking his own life in April 2017.
The main aim of Beder is to softly raise awareness around the topics of mental health and suicide prevention. Beder wants to overcome the fear and stigma surrounding these important societal issues to help ensure those suffering with their mental health realise that they are not alone and there is always support surrounding them so that taking their own life is not the only option.
Beder organises a range of in-person events and initiatives and is currently supporting Samaritans and Shout as its official charity partners in order to help raise awareness around their existing resources and support such life-saving support.
We feel Beder, as a charity, is certainly growing in the right direction as the Beder community continues to expand and provide a platform for us all to play our part in raising awareness around these important societal issues.

Significant activities – 1 APRIL 2022 to 31 MARCH 2023
Beder FC x Nike, Pro Direct Soccer and Bruno Fernandes
Beder announced a partnership with Pro:Direct Soccer who generously supplied a totally bespoke and personalised Nike kit for Beder FC. This exciting partnership shows the power and impact which we can have through Beder FC, as a vehicle and football, as a sport, to raise awareness around these important issues.
As part of this partnership, we worked with Bruno Fernandes and Pro:Direct Soccer on a special piece of content for Mental Health Awareness Week that had Bruno Fernandes talking openly about how he looks after his mental health and how he found talking to someone worthwhile. This content sat across Pro:Direct Soccer's Instagram, TikTok and Youtube channels as well as Beder's. Link: https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd712s6JZDs/
Beder x Lucky Saint

The Beder World Cup Experience – 6 to 18 December 2022
We organised, curated and delivered a first of its kind exhibition and experience harnessing the power of football, during the knockout stages of the World Cup, to softly raise awareness around mental health and suicide prevention in support of Beder which took place in London between 6-18 December.

Watching the World Cup Live and Panel Talks including an inspiring panel session gaving people the chance to get to know the individual behind the ‘footballer’ as Alexander Iwobi came down to The Beder World Cup Experience to talk about his career and how he looks after his mental health with Marvin Sordell and Mayowa Quadri.
Beder x James Gillespie at The Jazz Cafe – 17 January 2023
Beder hosted a special concert with James Gillespie at the Jazz Cafe in London as it saw over 300 people come together, through the power of music, for an unforgettable evening raising over £11,000. Beder’s objectives are to challenge the stigma surrounding mental health and suicide prevention, stimulate a dialogue to softly raise awareness and provide a platform for us all to play our part in normalising the conversation around these important societal issues.
Beder x Clear Channel
Beder partnered with Clear Channel who supported Eat with Beder and allowed it to go nationwide ahead of its publication on a range of billboard advertising. Throughout August, there were Eat with Beder adverts across over 100 locations nationwide.
Beder FC x BBC
Founder of Beder, Razzak Mirjan, took part in an interview about Beder FC with BBC at QPR, Loftus Road which was later released across BBC Bitesize and BBC Sport after connecting with a BBC Reporter, Kimberely Boak, ahead of The Beder World Cup Experience as we hoped she could attend. She was unable to attend but remained keen to carry out an interview about Beder FC.
Beder looks to lead the way collaboratively, build meaningful and authentic relationships with our partners and supporters whilst creating greater accessibility to information and opportunities to promote self-care and manage our mental health.
Beder strives for our work to have genuine, long term and sustainable impact. We believe that initiating conversations and creating safe spaces where a range of perspectives and experiences can be heard is key to this.
Beder prioritises taking a soft-touch approach to raising awareness, with empathy at the forefront of everything we do. We want to help make talking about what is on your mind less daunting and overwhelming.

Investment Powers
Under the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the charity has the power to make any investment which the trustees see fit.
The trustees are looking to build reserves within the charity to provide a stable financial base to support future activities and so the charity funds are kept in an instant access cash account.
Reserves Policy
Charity Commission guidance requires trustees to consider the need for a charity to maintain reserves. Free reserves are defined by the Charity Commission as funds which are neither restricted nor designated and which are not tied up in fixed assets necessary for operations.
At 31 March 2023, the group free reserves were £92,190 (2022 : £75,757).
At this stage of development of the charity the trustees are looking to build the charity’s reserves in order to ensure that the important work of the charity is sustainable and have therefore not yet developed a reserves policy.
