2. Achievements and Performance
2.1 Aims and Objectives
The objects of the Society of Analytical Psychology (SAP) are:
-
With a view to the benefit of the community at large but not otherwise to promote and encourage:
-
(a) The practice and application of analytical psychology in and to medical and other fields;
-
(b) Education and training in analytical psychology, its principles, practice and application;
-
(c) The increase of knowledge in relation to analytical psychology;
-
(d) The diffusion of the knowledge of the advantages that accrue from the practice and application of analytical psychology consistently with the foregoing.
The SAP promotes analytical (Jungian) psychology in four ways:
-
Running courses to train participants in analysis and psychotherapy;
-
Putting on events, lectures, seminars and courses in a range of Jungian and psychoanalytic topics, both at an introductory level and for professionals;
-
Publishing an academic journal to increase knowledge in the field of analytical psychology;
-
Providing a clinic offering that places patients with members and trainees and that offers reduced-fee analysis and psychotherapy.
2.2 Acknowledgements
The Trustees wish to extend their sincere thanks to all members who contribute their creativity, time and energy to the SAP through their teaching and leadership, by convening and facilitating courses, for their work on committees, task groups and on the many selection and hearing panels.
A special thanks must go to three Council members who stepped down at the February AGM: Inge Spencer, the outgoing Chair; Valerie Roach, Treasurer; and Penny de Haas Curnow, Diversity Officer. They were thanked in person at the AGM in February. This was the first in-person AGM we had held for 3 years. Members were also able to join the meeting remotely.
The Trustees also wish to thank the Faculty leads and their teams, the Programme Directors and all our dedicated course convenors and facilitators. We also wish to thank the CEO and the officebased team for their invaluable contribution to the Society.

2.3 Activities
Professional Training and Membership
The Analytic Training (AT) finished the year with 5 trainees and 5 post-trainees. The Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Training (PPT) had 17 trainees & 8 post trainees. We continue to welcome new people onto the professional trainings each year.
The Members of the Society are the heart of the SAP. We welcomed 5 Analytic and 6
Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Members to the Society during the reporting period. The Monday evening monthly Analytic Group continued to meet online, with excellent attendance and a wide and rich programme for members to enjoy.
The SAP continues to offer members opportunities to come together through the Members’ Conversations meetings, which are held regularly. In addition, a series of special meetings for members was introduced, facilitated by Philip Stokoe.
Public Events, Seminars and Workshops
The SAP ran public and professional events throughout the year. Highlights included Jan Wiener and Henry Abramovitch’s, The Final Moment: Endings in Psychotherapy and Analysis and a very popular talk by Murray Stein, Acts of Imagination . Other well-attended talks and discussions were delivered by Nora Swan-Foster, Joy Schaverien, Angela Foster, Carole Angier, Mark Vernon and John F Miller. We also ran a highly successful seminar series presented by Malcolm Rushton, The Shamanic, Trauma and Analysis .
Introductory and Advanced courses
These continue to be very well subscribed, with 26 people attending the Foundations Course (FC) and 9 people attending the Jungian Practice Experiential Group (JPEG) . All courses remained online.
The Supervision course for experienced clinicians continued to be popular, with 22 people completing the Certificate Course. In addition to this, 12 candidates were awarded the SAP Supervision Diploma. We continued to run the modular Diploma in Jungian Psychodynamic Psychotherapy with Adolescents and Young Adults with 8 people successfully completing the course and the first diploma awarded with several others on schedule to complete.
The Clinic
The Clinic received 111 enquiries from people seeking help and each enquirer received a clinical response call. As for applications for treatment, 46 were received. Every applicant received a clinical screening call by the Associate Clinic Director, or Clinic Director. Following clinical screening: 20 patients withdrew; 2 did not proceed after indicating their wish to do so; 2 were not suitable for SAP assistance and 22 patients proceeded to a Clinic consultation (clinical assessment). Of these 22 consultations, 11 were able to pay full-fee for consultation and 11 paid a reduced-fee. The difference between full and reduced fee was met from the Society’s restricted fund created by a charitable donation for this purpose.
5
In addition to patients proceeding to consultation, 2 patients transferred from the private practice of trainees and 1 patient transferred from another clinical service. These three transfer patients became Clinic training patients. The total number of Clinic consultations (22) and clinical assessments in relation to transfer patients (3) (and bringing forward 2 from the year 2021-22) was 27. Of these 27 patients, 7 patients were referred to Society members, 1 was placed with an analytic trainee (a transfer patient) and 16 patients placed with psychotherapy trainees, Of these 16 patients, 2 were transfer patients. In addition, 3 patients were awaiting placement decisions at the time this report period ended.
In the previous annual report, the Clinic noted the emerging pattern of financial hardship facing those seeking help from the Clinic. Indeed, the Clinic anticipated an increase in those experiencing financial difficulty given the challenging and turbulent economic climate during the period of this report. This trend has continued with the majority of patients contacting the Clinic seeking reduced-fee help.
Whilst in-person treatment is our preferred approach, we continue to offer some patients inperson and on-line treatment. This assists those who, for example, have difficulty in travelling to appointments due to illness or disability, geographical location or the cost of travel. The Clinic’s reduced fee scheme makes it possible for patients to access our psychoanalytic and psychodynamic treatment options, in addition to supporting the Society’s training programmes which make such treatments possible. Patients for whom the Society is not a suitable form of help are advised of alternative sources of assistance. Patients who may be at clinical or safeguarding risk are provided with support and assistance until their engagement with other services can be facilitated.
The Journal of Analytical Psychology (JAP)
This has been a year of transitions for the Journal . Alongside new Editors-in-Chief, Ann Addison (UK) and Arthur Niesser (Europe), Carolyn Bates was appointed as North American Editor-inChief, replacing Nora Swan-Foster, who steered JAP capably through the changes in leadership. JAP also welcomed several new review editors.
A new contract with JAP’s publisher, Wiley, came into force in January 2023. This has prompted a rethink of how JAP promotes itself in a changed publishing landscape and has led to the creation of a programme of public events to complement JAP’s published content, including ‘Meet the Author’ sessions and clinical writing workshops, which continue to be developed for next year.
The 2022 Michael Fordham prize (for the paper that demonstrates the most creative and original approach to clinical analytic thinking) was awarded to Dr Sue Mizen for her paper, The Self and Alien Self in Psyche and Soma . The paper was lauded for its presentation of unique clinical accounts, while also challenging the reader to integrate analytic theory and neuroscience in innovative and imaginative ways for clinical work.
The Journal ran a special issue in November 2022 entitled “Our Environmental and Climate Crisis,” guest edited by Deputy Editor, Amanda Dowd, and the April 2023 issue featured all of the plenary presentations from the International Association for Analytical Psychology’s 2022
6
Congress. JAP changed its house style in the April issue, adopting that of American Psychological Association’s 7[th] edition.
The twice-yearly Clinical Commentaries section has proved a popular recent innovation, and the review editors have provided regular book reviews, reviews of papers, and film and culture papers for our readership. JAP has also continued its series of interviews with prominent analysts, the videos of which are available on JAP’s website.
2.4 How our activities deliver public benefit
The SAP provides high quality training to individuals training to become psychoanalysts and psychodynamic psychotherapists. It is on a continuous mission to train as many people as possible who will go on to work with hundreds of patients who need support for a wide range of mental health problems. The work continues to be very much in need as the challenges people are facing in society grow year on year.
Our short courses and introductory courses raise awareness of this work and encourage people into professional training. The programme of public events is open to anyone with an interest in Jungian thinking, in its broadest sense, and Jungian analysis and psychotherapy. The SAP also runs an extensive programme of CPD courses, seminars and talks which enable members of the profession to hone and develop their skills, maintaining the highest professional standards.
The SAP also provides psychological consultation and treatments to members of the public in need, and consultation and advanced learning to professionals delivering such treatments. The fees are kept as low as possible for its educational events, and its clinic operates on a sliding scale basis of fees to widen access to psychological services to those with low incomes.
The trustees have complied with their duty to have due regard to the Charity Commission’s public benefit guidance when exercising any powers or duties to which the guidance is relevant.
3. Financial Review
3.1 Income and Expenditure
The SAP’s income was £552k, compared with £536k last year. The expenditure was £610, compared with £575k last year. (See note 3.5 below.) Part of the Society’s deficit was covered by its investments.
3.2 Investment Policy
The policy covers risk and exclusions. The SAP has instructed Investec, our asset management company, which is now part of the Rathbones group, to adopt a medium risk investment policy. The policy is reviewed every year and incorporates ethical considerations and a detailed breakdown of the portfolio and management approach.
7
3.3 Reserves Policy
The SAP has reserves of £1.7 million (2022 £1.8 million), with £431,000 (2022 £483,000) in restricted funds. The restricted funds are managed by a sub-committee of the Council and are used to support the SAP’s charitable activities according to the terms of each fund as specified in the full reserves policy. The policy is reviewed by Council at the end of each financial year.
The SAP’s unrestricted funds are retained to subsidise charitable activities until the activities can be brought onto a breakeven basis. The SAP has a designated fund to assist with the maintenance of the property at Daleham Gardens. The SAP retains sufficient unrestricted funds to enable all current trainees to complete their training in the event of the charity needing to be wound up.
The SAP makes grants to support trainees who are struggling to afford the training fees. These grants are based on need. The budget for the grants is set annually by Council (£12k for 2022-23) but the decision for who receives a grant is the responsibility of the Restricted Funds and Bursary Committee.
3.4 Value of property
The SAP owns 45% of 1 Daleham Gardens. The Trustees intend to revalue the property in conjunction with the Institute of Group Analysis. The SAP and the IGA had been in discussion with the neighbouring Tavistock Centre who were exploring the potential for their property site and the two surrounding premises which includes Daleham Gardens and neighbouring property. These discussions are currently on hold and the Trustees are not expecting to relocate in the immediate future.
3.5 Special note of serious incident
In October 2022 a payment of £21,000 was made to criminals posing as a legitimate business following the compromise of email accounts. This was reported to the Membership, Action Fraud, the HSBC Fraud team and the Charity Commission. A full and detailed report was produced by the CEO for the Trustees and the wider Membership.
The case is ongoing and is being handled by Norfolk CID and Metropolitan Police cybercrime officers. At the time of writing we are hopeful of recovering some or all of these funds. The Charity Commission required no further action from the Society’s officers.
Following this, a range of additional security and authentication systems have been put in place and we have reviewed our systems with our IT company. Training on cybercrime has also taken place.

4. Plans for the Future
While 2023 started with a lower number of trainees than last year, we remain positive about the growth in membership numbers. We have successfully completed the reaccreditation process with the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC), the regulatory body which accredits our professional trainings.
Maintaining and then increasing our membership numbers remains a priority. How this is achieved is part of a continuing discussion, with debate about the Society’s current and future identity in a changing and challenging landscape – for the entire community, its trainees and, of course, patients. We have set up a new group to review our external application procedures for well qualified and experienced analysts and psychotherapists who undertook their professional training outside the SAP. This group will make recommendations to Council in early 2024.
Similarly, we are addressing the professional development needs of our members in order to increase the number of Training and Supervising Analysts within the Society. Parallel to this is the need to ensure Psychotherapy members have a professional advancement route within the SAP. Work on this is ongoing and involves discussion with the BPC.
Bringing in high levels of revenue to the SAP is essential to subsidise our charitable activities which we operate at a significant loss. We have developed a range of activities under our ‘Education’ portfolio in order to generate these much-needed funds, focusing on our unique ability to run special seminar series, conferences and workshops from a Jungian and developmental perspective. The aim is to develop the current two-year programme into a three-year rolling programme.
5. Governance, Structure and Management
5.1 Governance
The SAP is a registered charity and a company limited by guarantee. The members of the SAP appoint a Council who are the trustees of the charity and the directors of the company.
5.2 Recruitment, Appointment and Training of Trustees
Members of Council are recruited and elected by ballot. Any member of the SAP may nominate themselves to stand for Council. Members of Council serve for a term of 3 years after which they may stand for re-election. No members of Council may serve for more than six consecutive years. After six years the Member of Council is eligible for re-election after a period of 12 months has passed. Council may co-opt up to three people onto Council. Trustees are provided with an induction by the CEO and the Chair and a full induction pack.
5.3 Risk Management
The trustees consider risk as part of every decision and Council has considered how the board might consider risk going forward. The board asks questions pertaining to risk when reviewing the organisation’s policies and procedures, or when considering approval for new initiatives. When the new Council is in place following the March 2024 AGM, a review of risk will be a top priority.
9
5.4 Related Parties
The SAP is a member of the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC), which provides ethical oversight and accreditation of the training courses.
5.5 Independent examiner
Frances Wilde FCCA MBA DChA PgDip, was re-appointed as the Society’s independent examiner.
6. Responsibilities of the Council
The Trustees (who are also the directors of The Society of Analytical Psychology for the purposes of Company and Charity Law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the Financial Statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company and Charity law require the Council to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charitable company as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including income and expenditure, for the financial year. In preparing those financial statements, the Council should follow best practice and:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is not appropriate to assume that the company will continue on that basis.
The Council is responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. The Council is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Approved by Council on 16 March 2024, and signed on its behalf by:

THE SOCIETY OF ANALYTICAL PSYCHOLOGY
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
The Society of Analytical Psychology is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 1 Daleham Gardens, London, NW3 5BY.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006, 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 charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value. 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 charity 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
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Designated funds are a division of unrestricted funds which have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. The purpose of the designated funds are set out in the notes.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
1.4 Income
Income is recognised when the charity 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.
Subscriptions are accounted for in the period to which they relate. As the subscription year is not the same as the accounting year the portion of subscriptions relating to the later period is carried forward as deferred income.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity 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 charity 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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023
1 Accounting policies
(Continued)
1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to pay for the expenditure. The charity is not registered for VAT and costs therefore include attributable VAT.
Wherever possible costs are attributed directly to expenditure headings. Salary costs and shared overheads are allocated to each heading based on employee time spent on that particular activity.
Costs of generating funds comprise those costs directly attributable to the charity's fund raising activities.
Charitable expenditure comprise those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets over £1,000 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:
Freehold premises and improvements Nil Fixtures and fittings 20% reducing balance Office and computer office 20% reducing balance & computer 33% 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 Fixed asset investments
Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.
1.8 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the charity 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).
1.9 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 Accounting policies
(Continued)
1.10 Financial instruments
The charity 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 charity's balance sheet when the charity 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.
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 charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
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 charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
1.12 Retirement benefits
The charity makes contributions to the Company Pension Auto Enrolment Stakeholder Scheme on behalf of employees and all contributed costs are accounted for on the basis of charging the cost of providing pensions over the period when the charity benefits from the employees' services. The charity has no further liability.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the charity’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.

The freehold property at 1 Daleham Gardens was purchased in 1982, in partnership with The Institute of Group Analysis, the Society having a 45% share and occupying the first and second floors with the Institute occupying the remainder of the premises. Neither are self-contained and each holds a 99 year lease from the joint freeholders. The trustees are aware that the property is undervalued but are unable to quantify the value at a reasonable cost. The trustees consider that is not necessary to depreciate the freehold property further after 1/9/15.
