OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
Our charity operates to relieve social anxiety and alleviate mental health pressures through providing activities that are inclusive and engaging.
We aim to, through our various scheduled activities and ad-hoc events, encourage men and women to participate as a group. We allow anyone over the age of 18 who needs us, into our support groups, regardless of financial circumstances, race, religion, sexual orientation or educational level. We adapt our activities to be inclusive and in line with the consensus of services users.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Minds for Men Wellness for Women
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Minds for Men Wellness for Women (the Trust) for the period 6 April 2023 to 5 April 2024.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
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.
