## **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|As a male mental health charity, senior
management has regular consultation
sessions with Martin Seager, The founder
of the first male group in the British
phycology association.
Martin advises senior government and
conducts research for various
organisations. These sessions are vital to
the organisation. At the beginning of the
year, HiS had a documentary made of the
charity, which involved some of the team
as well as some of the clients themselves.
The support we received from our clients
was amazing, considering some started off
with no confidence at all, only
communicating via text. Watching them
blossom is definitely our reward.
The outcome of the documentary was
rather emotional, with not just HIS’s story,
but the journey of our clients and the
viewer’s views. Tim’s family were
overwhelmed with gratitude for the work
HIS Charity does. We were ecstatic to be
invited to join the government’s research
paper for the APPG, a boy of today.
In June, we did a presentation to
parliament officials on the charity. Outlining
that as a charity, we do HIS: Help
information support. Supporting males with
their emotional & mental health, ensuring
that they thrive, not just survive, not putting
a timeline restriction on somebody’s
healing, and building a unique care
package around their needs. We
emphasised how as an organisation, we
build a solid system that holds and
supports individuals, ensuring they don’t
fall through the gap. How calibrating holistic
therapy and talking therapy can have a
profound positive effect on individuals.
MP’s were interested in setting up a pilot
scheme for us, as we don’t work in the
same format as the NHS.|
