## **Charity Structure and Governance**
Mentell is constituted as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO), operating under the Charity Commission’s Foundation Model governing document. This legal structure provides the organisation with both charitable status and a clear framework for governance, accountability, and decision-making. The Board of Trustees holds overall responsibility for the management and strategic direction of the charity, ensuring compliance with its governing document and the effective delivery of its charitable objectives for public benefit.
Trustees are selected based on their lived experience of men’s mental health issues, including suicide, or their professional expertise and skills relevant to Mentell’s mission. This approach ensures that governance decisions are informed by both personal insight and professional competence.

## **Objectives & Activities**
## **Summary of the purposes of the charity**
To improve mental health of males (18+) by promoting self-help choices within the context of mutual support.
## **Summary of the main activities**
Free to access (weekly) peer to peer support groups for men 18+ to talk in a safe and confidential environment, free from advice and judgement. The service had 100% uptime throughout 2024, supporting 1,432 men across the UK with zero waiting time and operated both face to face and online offerings.
The charity also deploys a nationwide campaign called TYBB (Turn Your Borough Blue) that aims to raise awareness for men’s mental health and male suicide in places where men have meaningful conversations. This includes Pubs/Bars, Barbers, Coffee Shops and Local businesses. The initiative has recently expanded to cover Bookies, Gyms and Builders/Builders merchants.

## **Achievements and Performance**
## **Introduction**
Mentell is committed to advancing men's mental health across the UK by scaling access to high-quality peerto-peer support. Our strategic priorities for 2024 were focused on expanding our service provision and deepening the conversation around men's mental health through our award-winning Turn Your Borough Blue (TYBB) community work. Ultimately concentrating our efforts to achieve our collective vision - a world where every man regardless of race, region or wealth can talk about their issues, big or small, in safe, non-judgmental spaces.
## **State of the nation**
In 2024, UK suicide still accounted for the most significant risk to a man's life (under 50 years old) and impacted more men (74.5%) than women (25.5%). 2024 Gov figures estimated 14 men per 100,000 died by suicide in the calendar year. What the statistics fail to convey is the full extent of the suffering felt by the partner, children, family and friends impacted by each death. The ripples of a loss of life continue daily for those who keep their loved ones in their hearts; suicide magnifies that loss, which is why our mission doesn't just touch the men who benefit from our service, but every relationship they hold. Our core mission goes beyond preventing death, it's about helping men reconnect with life. While it is difficult to measure, we know from countless stories that our service extends far beyond the individual in the circle.
## **1432 Reasons to keep going**
In 2024, Mentell received 1,432 new member signups, providing those men with access to weekly, free, and confidential spaces to talk. Of the 1,432 self-referred signups, 430 became regular service users attending online and in-person peer-to-peer support groups across the UK. Most men found our service either through their local health care professional (27%) or the TYBB community work (27%). The vast majority (67%) of our new members were male, aged between 30 and 60 years old, an age demographic which sits within the highest suicide rates in the UK. Compared to previous years, we also started to see a growing trend of younger men (18-29 years old) accessing our support, now accounting for 18% of the 2024 membership base.
## **Community Matters**
In 2024, the community team signed up 224 pubs, bars, and businesses to Mentell's TYBB campaign. That's 224 more venues in the UK actively promoting men's mental health in their premises and to their customers. To this day, the greatest source of new Mentell signups remains a simple beer mat. Everyone connected with the charity would like to thank our community stakeholders for switching their Mentell beers mat over every month, hosting charity pub quizzes, and continuing to fly the Mentell flag high and proud.
## **To the men who make it happen**
At the heart of Mentell is a group of highly committed, well-trained volunteer facilitators who, despite their lived experience, have dedicated their time and energy to learning how to hold space. It costs Mentell over 100 mentorship hours and up to £2000 of associated training fees to train one lead facilitator. In 2024, Mentell's service users received 8,270 volunteer hours from a pool of 50 facilitators, each ensuring our service is delivered to the highest standards of safeguarding and supervision.
## **Changing lives one man at a time**
In 2024, just under 4000 bums on seats were registered at our Mentell circles by a pool of men needing safe spaces to talk. Some men came for a reason, some for a season, and others remain lifelong users of the service. Our core service (Mentell circles) maintained a 92% satisfaction score from the men who benefited
- 4 -
from it. Hundreds of men went on record to share their life-changing experiences, including Jacob Lowe, who became an ambassador for Mentell, launching our one-step campaign and raising thousands of pounds for our mission in the process.
## **Lifting spirits along the way**
In 2024 our research shows that regular participation (6+ sessions) in Mentell's groups significantly enhances men's well-being by 45% compared to pre-intervention scores, as nationally recognised evaluation tools (The Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scales) show. Surveys also indicate reduced reliance on NHS mental health services by 49% pre v post-intervention.
## **Broadening our reach**
In 2024, the charity invited several veteran service users to form a steering panel to help Mentell better understand how to work with and engage with Veterans. That same focus group highlighted that feelings of being a victim or a burden prevent many veterans from seeking support. However, when given the chance to help others, these same veterans are often the first to step forward. This feedback led to the creation of the "We Still Need You" campaign, encouraging veterans to give back by becoming a Mentell facilitator instead of joining as a member. As a result, Mentell has committed resources to scale this veteran pathway, including working with Cheshire East Council on several partnership grants as we move into 2025.
## **Building from within**
2024 was also a year of developing our charity infrastructure and recruiting key personnel to drive it forward. Mentell was born from Andy's (co-founder) vision and then, through the goodwill of many, found a way to thrive despite spinning many plates without professional expertise for years and years. Andy has held that vision since 2017 and driven the charity through unprecedented years of growth to the point where we are dealing with NHS-commissioned projects every month. As a board of trustees, our priority has been to ensure that service growth matches our infrastructure to support Mentell, not just in the present, but for many years to come. At the start of the year, the trustees allocated a budget for the first time since Mentell's inception to modernise and overhaul the charity's governance and operational capacity. The spending was significant and needed; external consultants helped the charity replace outdated systems and policies that derisked key areas of operation and have now placed Mentell on a firm footing for future growth. The board would like to thank our former chair, Alanna Atkinson, who stepped down into a temporary executive role to project manage our consultants during the 2024 transformation period.
## **Annual Facilitator Retreat**
Each year, Mentell brings our community of facilitators together for a weekend retreat in the beautiful Peak District, a nature-based space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with one another. It’s a rare opportunity for the men who give so much of themselves week after week to rest, recharge, and share new ideas. This year, 35 facilitators joined us, including several new faces who each received a hand-carved wooden ring, engraved to symbolise their journey with Mentell and their growth into lead facilitators. The moment of presenting these rings was deeply moving, a reminder of the trust, care, and shared purpose that lies at the heart of our work. The retreat remains one of Mentell’s most meaningful investments each year, reflecting our belief that by caring for those who hold space for others, we strengthen the entire circle.

## **Financial Review**
## **Review of the charities’ financial position at the end of the period**
Total income during the year was £343,914, a decrease of 12.1% on the prior year’s figure of £391,106.
Even though there was a decrease in income, the charity’s activities were still able to expand. Total 2024 expenditure was £431,426 (2023: £292,375) resulting in a net decrease in funds of £87,512 (2023: £98,731) and total funds at the year-end of £120,646 (2023: £208,158).
This meant that Mentell still started 2024 in a financially stable situation, with funds available to continue to expand its work, serving more men and bringing greater awareness of men’s mental health issues.
## **Financial Footing**
Due to several restricted projects rolling over from 2023 and planned spending on infrastructure, the board were always aware that the expenditure would outweigh income for 2024. During this period, the charity has consistently maintained three months of reserves. As we look ahead to 2025, there is a full pipeline of commissioned activity that will help rebalance the deficit.
## **Reserves Statement**
The charity’s policy is to maintain a reserves position to cover between 3 and 6 months of operational costs. Our recurring costs average around £25,000 per month therefore we started 2024 with over 4 months fuel in the tank.
The trustees expected the level of reserve cover to reduce during 2024 as activities expand and as some funds were utilised to strengthen the charity’s infrastructure to ensure that its continued growth is built on firm foundations, supported by robust systems and organisational resilience.
## **Amount of reserves held**
At the end of 2024 the charity held reserves of £120,646, of this £120,646 were unrestricted (free reserves).

## **MENTELL**
## **REPORT TO THE MEMBERS ON THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF MENTELL**
## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024**
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2024 as set out on pages 4 to 11.
## **Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner**
As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).
The charity’s trustees consider an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the 2011 Act, and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility as independent examiner to:
- ~ examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act
- ~ follow the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 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 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 of disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters.
The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.
## **Independent Examiners Statement**
I have completed my examination for the year ended 31 December 2024.
I can confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
- ~ accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act or
- ~ the accounts do not accord with the accounting records to comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act
- ~ 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 (FRS102)].
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
## **Independent Examiners Qualification**
Since the charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination, being a Fellow Member of the Association of Accounting Technicians, which is one of the listed bodies.

## **MENTELL**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**
## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024**
## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## **Basis of accounting**
Historically the charity has prepared their accounts on a ‘Receipts and Payments’ basis.
As the income of the charity now exceeds £250,000 in this financial year, the financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) ‘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 January 2022].
## **Going Concern**
The trustees are satisfied that there are no material uncertainties about the charity’s ability to continue.
## **Incoming resources**
All income, including grants and donations, is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, that it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Restricted funds are to be used for specified purposes as laid down by the donor.
Expenditure which meets these criteria’s is identified to the fund, together with a fair allocation of overheads and support costs.
Unrestricted funds are for grants, donations and other incoming resources received or generated for charitable purposes.
## **Resources expended**
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. All expenses, including support costs and governance costs, are allocated or apportioned to applicable expenditure headings.
Charitable expenditure shall include all expenditure directly related to the objects of the charity, including the cost of goods and services, that have been incurred in charitable activities.
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required, and the amount for the obligation can be measured reliably.
## **Governance costs**
Governance costs shall include all expenditure directly related to the administration of the charity including expenditure incurred in the management of the charity's assets, organisational administration and compliance with charitable and statutory requirements.
