TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the LLR Mind's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and "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 1 January 2019).
Objectives and activities
The constitution defines the charity's objects as:
To preserve and protect the health of those impacted by mental health problems (hereinafter referred to as "beneficiaries"), in particular but not exclusively by:
-
promoting the preservation of good mental health in particular by enabling and empowering everyone experiencing mental health problems to live with, manage, and recover from their condition;
-
relieving the needs of people with mental health problems by working to increase the understanding of mental health and mental health problems by gathering and disseminating information and working to raise awareness, promote understanding, and challenge stigma and discrimination;
-
influencing, contributing and encouraging the development of public policy and good practice relevant to mental health, including fostering and promoting cooperation between other persons and bodies at local and natinoal level, and particiapting in relevant activities; and
-
education the public in the casues and effect of poor mental health.
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the LLR Mind should undertake.
The main activities of the charity are:
-
Community Wellbeing Service - The Community Wellbeing Service (CWS) is a triage and signposting service for adults (18+) with emerging, non-complex, mild to moderate mental health needs. Individuals receive support from our advisors to design a plan to improve their health and wellbeing. Plans focus on non-medical/clinicial solutions, including advice, guidance and signposting to local support. Direct support with mental health and wellbeing is provided as well as information, advice and guidance related to contributory factors such as debt/money management, housing, benefits, employment and education. Staff work alongside PCN staff to increase access to support for individuals struggling with their rmental health.
-
Good mood Groups - Good mood Groups (GMGs) are informal get togethers designed to connect individuals to other like-minded people within their communities, as well as provide access to wellbeing support, and opportunities to share interests and skills. Attendees can chat, take part in activities, access peer support, learn about and improve your mental health, and find out about other local services and activities that could support them. They are free drop-in groups, allowing people to dip in and out as necessary. We also try to provide a free drink wherever possible.
-
Neighbourhood Mental Health Cafes - Neighbourhood Mental Health Cafes (NMHCs) provide a safe and welcoming space for people struggling with their emotional and mental wellbeing. They are tailored and responsive to the needs of the local population and provide a meaningful and supportive alternative to A&E or other urgent services at the time of crisis. Allowing access without an appointment, they offer drop-in support in a safe environment, a hot drink, a listening ear, practical support, as well as the ability to refer and or signpost to additional services if required. The cafes deliver practical support at the point of presentation to de-escalate mental health distress and signposting those with complex/urgent need to the relevant urgent care service. Supporting individuals to manage their distress, developing and supporting the use of healthy coping strategies and, overall, to instill hope and promote self-worth and purpose.
-
Supported Self Help - Supported Self Help (SSH) is a guided self-help, early intervention programme which aims to give adults (18+) the knowledge and skills to understand, protect and improve their mental health. After a simple assessment, beneficiaries select a pathway relevant to their current situation and are then offered up to five weekly one-to-one sessions via video calls, telephone calls or face-to-face in community venues. Practitioners support them to try tools and techniques and create a toolkit of resources that work for them. Outcome scores are recorded at the beginning, middle and end of their course of sessions (where all sessions are completed).

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Achievements and performance
Overall, LLR Mind has supported 1,539 individuals.
For Supported Self Help, beneficiary improvement is measured through the clinical tools: GAD7, PHQ9 and SWEMWBS. Of the 332 beneficiaries, 85% showed improvement in their GAD7 scores, 86% showed improvement in their PHQ9 scores, and 74% showed improvement in their SWEMWBS scores.
For the Community Wellbeing Service, beneficiary improvement is measured through the clinical tool SWEMWBS and their Wellness Plan. Of the 162 beneficiaries, 89% showed an improvement in their SWEMWBS score, and 80% showed positive progress on their Wellbeing Plan.
For Good Mood Groups, we are targeted to support 500 individuals across 5-10 groups. We supported 960 individuals (including 120 unique attendances) across 6 groups.
For Neighbourhood Mental Health Cafes, we are targeted to support 240 unique attendances. In the five months that the service ran across the 2024-25 year, we supported 85 unique attendances.
Financial review
The charity's work is reliant on funding from various sources to support the services provided. The main sources of this funding are other charities (including other MIND charities) as well as healthcare organisations.
During the year to 31 March 2025, the charity received total income of £360,544 (2024: £nil), which included income from donations and other fundraising of £57,361 (2024: £nil), income from services provided under contracts of £298,677 (2024: £nil), income from workshops and other training of £4,126 (2024: £nil) and interest income of £380 (2024: £nil) from cash deposits.
Further detail of the income from donations and other fundraising is provided in note 3 and includes funds of £20,317 (2024: £nil) received from Coventry & Warwickshire MIND when the activivities of LLR MIND were separated and transferred into the LLR MIND charity.
Income from services provided under contracts includes a core grant of £30,000 from Mind (NAMH) to fund core roles within LLR MIND, along with Service Level Agreements and other grants from organisations totalling £268,677 to fund specific service provisions. This also includes £130,502 from Coventry & Warwickshire MIND where they have partnered with LLR MIND to provide mental health services.
The charity's total expenditure for the year ended 31 March 2025 was £341,703. Given the nature of the charity's services, the main cost is that of staff employed which totalled £258,241 (2024: £nil).
The charity's activities resulted in a total surplus of £18,841 (2024: £nil) for the year ended 31 March 2025, which includes a surplus of £8,991 (2024: £nil) on restricted income funds.
Reserves policy
It is the policy of the LLR Mind that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six month’s expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the LLR Mind’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised.
Unrestricted funds (excluding those funds designated for a specific purpose by the Trustees) were £6,752 (2024: £nil) at 31 March 2025, which is below the required level; however, the charity started operating in April 2024 and will need to build the required level of reserves over a period of time whilst providing the necessary level of services.
Plans for future periods
To strengthen local representation and broaden the Board's skillset, we are working towards amending the Mind trademark licence. This change would allow up to one-third of the Board to be recruited from outside the Federation. By opening a portion of the Board to external candidates, LLR Mind aims to being in diverse perspectives and expertise from the local community, while maintaining strong ties to the Federation.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Structure, governance and management
The charity is constituted as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO), as a body corporate under Part 11 of the Charities Act 2011. The CIO was registered with the charity commission on 30 August 2023.
The Trustees are legally responsible for the governance and management of the charity. Trustees are responsible for setting strategies and policies for ensuring these are implemented.
The trustees who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were: Coventry, Warwickshire & Worcestershire Mind (Chair) - represented by S Hill Northamptonshire Mind - represented by S Hillier Mind (NAMH) - represented by B Pledger Burton and District Mind - represented by L Barrell Minds Matter (Trading Activities) Limited - represented by K Willows Derbyshire Mind - represented by J Hotchkiss Nottinghamshire Mind - represented by N Rea Kettering Association for Mental Health (Kettering MIND) - represented by C Davison
Method of recruitment and appointment of trustees
LLR Mind has followed a unique formation process, having been developed from with the Mind Federation rather than as an external charity affiliating to it. Due to the requirements of the Mind trademark licence, all trustees must already be affiliated with the Federation. Therefore, our recruitment method is unique: trustees are exclusively drawn from seinor leaders or Board members within the Federation.
Our Board is composed of representatives from corporate entities within the Federation, each represented by a senior leader or Board member from their respective organisation. This ensures alignment with the Federation's values and governance standards.
Organisational Structure
The Board meet on a bi-monthly basis and are responsible for strategic leadership, governance, and oversight to ensure the charity operates effectively, ethically and in line with its purpose. In addition to the Board, LLR Mind also have a Lived Experience Leadership Panel (LELP), who meet on a monthly basis to ensure that all activities include the voice of lived experience.
Following the departure of the CEO in April 2025, the board now delegates day-to-day management of the charity to the Operations Director.
Members' liability
All of the trustees are members of the company and guarantee to contribute £1 in the event of a winding up.
The trustees' report was approved by the Board of Trustees.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF LEICESTER LEICESTERSHIRE AND RUTLAND MIND
I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Leicester Leicestershire and Rutland MIND (the LLR Mind) for the year ended 31 March 2025.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the trustees of the LLR Mind you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
I report in respect of my examination of the LLR Mind’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act 2011.
Independent examiner's statement
Since the LLR Mind’s gross income exceeded £250,000, the independent examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with the relevant version of the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn. I understand that this has been done in order for the financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the LLR Mind as required by section 130 of the Charities Act 2011.
-
2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
3 the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of financial statements set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the financial statements 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 financial statements to be reached.

LEICESTER LEICESTERSHIRE AND RUTLAND MIND
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
The charity is constituted as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO), as a body corporate under Part 11 of the Charities Act 2011.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the LLR Mind's governing document, the Charities Act 2011, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "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 1 January 2019). The LLR Mind is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The LLR Mind has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a true and fair view. This departure has involved following the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the LLR Mind. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the LLR Mind has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
1.4 Income
Income is recognised when the LLR Mind is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the LLR Mind has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the LLR Mind has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

1 Accounting policies
(Continued)
1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Computers
33.33% on straight line
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
1.7 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the LLR Mind reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).
1.8 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
1.9 Financial instruments
The LLR Mind has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the LLR Mind's balance sheet when the LLR Mind becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
1 Accounting policies
(Continued)
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the LLR Mind’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
1.10 Taxation
The charity is exempt from tax on income and gains to the extent that these are applied exclusively to its charitable objects.
1.11 Employee benefits
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the LLR Mind is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
1.12 Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the LLR Mind’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
