Charity Commission Guidance and Governance Codes of Practice The Committee governs the organisation with reference to guidance published by the Charity Commission and best practice as outlined in the Charity Governance Code and occupational slandards for Committee members.

Hearing Voices and Support and Connect Services Corporate Services: Resources Director & Finance Director, finance and admin stafflvolunteers Organisational Model Mind in Camden has 25 full time equivalent staff in 35 posts. As well as directly providing services, this core staff team manages and co-ordinates a very wide range of activities provided by volunteers and sessional staff (many of them people who use our services and those with lived experience) and also through staff, volunteers and people who use services in other organisations, because many of our projects take a collaborattve capacity building approach to joint work.

Organisations we collaborate with formally National Mind Mind in Camden is an independent charity affiliated to National Mind. The benefits of this to the charity include.. Access to a London and nationwide network of charities working towards similar goals. The opportunity lo engage in, and keep informed of, national issues and campaigns around mental health. Practical help and sharing of some resources. A block insurance arrangemenl that substantially reduces insurance costs for the charity Collaborative work with other bodies Collaboralive work is one of the key elements of our Strategic Plan, so we continue to involve a very wide range of stakeholders in all our projects and are, in turn, involved by them. The most fundamental partnership to us is undertaking joint work with the people who use our services (e.g. the joint provision of support groups). Beyond this, we engage with every type of organisation in the rnental health, education, arts and community sectors, including local, national and even international organisations and groups. We have over 150 partner organisations who engage in joint activities with us, from running peer support groups as part of our capacity building and networking projects to conducting joint work with individuals who use our services - this includes all types of statutory and voluntary organisations working in prisons, with children, with adults, in the community, in hospitals and in secure units and in Immigration Removal Centres. The nature of the agreements we have with them ranges from formal sub-contracts (both as lead and as a sub-contractor) and other written agreements, to quid pro quo and informal mutual interest arrangements.

MIND IN CAMDEN TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 We also provide administrative work experience placements for young people from local schools and colleges and for local organisations enabling people with learning disabilities to learn work skills and find employment. As of April 2022, we became the Banker in the local Resilience Network Alliance - where ourselves, commissioners and several providers working locally have come together to provide joined up services in Camden. This has had an impact on how our reserves targets are calculated (see Rese￿eS Policy below). It would not be possible to list every instance of collaborative work we undertake because they are so many, and they change and develop all the time - there are more specific examples in the rest of this report 3. The objects and underlying principles of our work Mind in Camden's charitable objects as staled in our Memorandum ofAgreement are.. a) To work for, promote and provide for the wellbeing, interests and rights of people who have mental ill health bl To work for and promote the preservation and safeguarding of good mental health The underlying values of our work.. We see mental health as a continuum we all move along at various times in our lives - there is no 'us' l= well and 'normal') and 'them' (= ill and 'disDrdered') We work in a way that sees voices, visions, unusual beliefs, anxiety and extremes of mood as a respons@ to real events, understandable feelings and cultural influences that people can identify in their own lives rather than as delusions, hallucinations, or symptoms of a bio-medical 'disorder' We promote and respect diverse cultural and personal understandings of menlal health, and diversity in the wider context. We look to combat the isolation. low self-esteem and stigma that psychiatric labels and diagnosis can bring by recognising and valuing people's own experiences and definitions of their mental health. We believe Ihal recovery is self-defined. We treat people with Current or past lived experience of mental health issues as actual or potential assets, contributors and partners, not passive recipients of services. We promote wellbeing by supporting individual responsibility, independence, interdependence, and inclusion in the wider community. The sew-help, peer support and co-production models we adopt in our se￿iCe8, and promote lo olhers through our Hearing Voices projects, training and consultancy, spring directly from this view of mental health. We place a high value on engaging in partnership work in everything wo do because we see it as a means of.. Extending what we Gan offer peop18 who take part in our directly provided s8rvices. Influencing other organisations and individuals to adopt non-stigmatising, self-help, peer support and co-produced ways of working. Learning from others We constantly look to improve the services that we and others provide by learning, training, and sharing. We value volunteering as a means to engage as wide a range of skills and experienGes as we possibly can to increase the quality, quantity and reach of our work. It is estimated thal one person in four will experience some form of mental health issue in their lives 25°/0 of the population. In addition to distress experienced internally, there is also much

MIND IN CAMDEN TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 discrimination and stigma attached to the diagnostic labels the distress can bring; associated problems include discrimination, poverty, social exclusion, physical ill health. unemployment, homelessness, and addiction. Our charitable objects and aclivilies aim to benefit the public by addressing these issues. 4. Activities undertaken for the public benefit, achievements and performance a} Hearing Voices & Distressing Beliefs Projects i) Voices Unlocked "This training has been fantastic- I have learnl so much, and l am really looking fonvard to starting th& group. I have laarnl there is no 'us and them,, and that we can hold this space in our setting d8spNt8 the chall817ges" (fraining attendee) Voices Unlocked works with prisons, forensic units, and Immigration Removal Centres (IRCS) to support those who are detained in these settings who hear voices, see visions, have other sensory experiences or distressing beliefs, as well as those who have a range of related eXperIen￿S including trauma reactions, dissociation, suicidality and self-harm. We do this through delivering Irainings to staff working in these institutions lo beller understand and feel equipped lo support people with ovewhelming or confusing experiences, as well as encouraging institutions to sel up peer support groups. We offer ongoing mentoring and support to staff in prisons, forensic unils and IRCS, and we assist them in holding peer support groups through training group facilitators and co- facilitating with them. The global pandemic resulted in Voices Unlocked needing to think about how, in addition to offering online training, we Gan offerways of supporting detained voice hearers. One way we have achieved this is to create 50 'coping kils,, which are clear plastic bundles of resources to support people who are hearing voices or having overwhelming experien￿$. We were able to include a grounding objecufidget toy, a journal, a puzzle book, pencil, a fold-out coping strategies poster, booklets on hearing voices from the Understanding Voices website from Hearing the Voice, an allergy sensitive chocolate bar, and for some coping kits. exercise dice, for those who prefer to cope with their experiences in a more physical way. The initial feedback to the 26 kits we have delivered so far has been resoundingly positive, with HMP Pentonville saying that not only have they supported people when they are alone in their cells, but they have also given the group members things to discuss and talk through or work on together in the group itself. We were also able to begin involving the opinions and ideas of people with lived experience of criminalisation and hearing voices by holding a focus group for ex-prisoners wilh experiences of voice hearing, which led to fruitful discussions which offered feedback on our service, our coping kits, and proffered the idea to set up a peer support space 'with purpose, for ex-prisoners to meet others in similar situations, offer support and solidarity to each olher, bul to also have autonomy and capacity to try and create meaningful change for voice hearers who are currently incarcerated. We also were able to build a connection with a prison who had funding lo pay someone wilh experience of being in prison and hearing voices to talk to their group members. -To have a space where I wony be judged and where I can tell my story is so important. It has helped me recover, and now being a facilitator is an honourf, (group member/faGilit8tor) Vol￿$ Unlocked has delivered a range of trainings and have been able to begin returning to face- to-face trainings, meaning that in-house trainings can be given which will create opportunities for group members to train to be facilitators instead of just staff members. We have delivered training in group facilitation, one-to-one support, and supporting people who are suicidal in forensic settings. We have also started to place more emphasis on our work with IRCS and have been invited to

Ai?d they ￿ non-judgemental presence- it felt safe and ok lo make a mistake" (Iraining allei?dee) li} Voice Collective: our children and young people's project "Compassion and open-mindedness seem, to me, to be at the heart of Voice Colleclive s approach. In practice, this means always treatii?g everyone with courtesy and care, as opposed to the judgemei7t aiid harshness whiGh is Gommon forpeople with distressi17g sensory experie17ces to receive. Their compassion sels them apart from the often rushed and cold intervention provided by medical mental health seThices, and their open-mii?dedness facilitates their ground-hreaking work. I truly can l overstate Ihe pow8r of th8S8 values" (parent) Voice Collective works to provide support to children and young people under the age of 25 who hear voices, have other sensory experiences, difficult or Ltnshared beliefs, and related forms of distress. We achieve this through various means, including delivering training and workshops to mental health professionals and youth workers, offering one-lo-one support lo young people and their families, holding peer support groups for young voice hearers and parentslcarers, an online forum space for young people who hear voices, creative workshops, and partnerships with allies in academia who share our ethos of exploring experiences Ihal might be overwhelming or confusing for people, and not pathologising them. We are excited to have launched our Discord seNer as an online space for young voice hearers across the world to connect with and support each other, which has been co-produced with young people we work with. We have also been able to work with Media and Comms professionals through the John Lyons Trust scheme which was in partnership with the Media Trust. With the voluntary help of a company called Few and Far, we have been able lo produce a new modernised aeslhetic for Voice Collective and develop a new website which takes into consideration feedback from the old website. Our groups continue to run and be in demand, as does one-to-one support. .1 cannot even begin lo lell you what a lifeline your s8rvice has been" (young person) Voice Collective continues to be a leading light in supporting young people in dislress, incorporating meaningful involvement of people with lived experience, youth-cenlred peer support, as well as being part of conversations about reimagining safeguarding. We are collaborating on numerous projects in partnership with both NHS trusts and universities to develop resources that will help schools be better equipped to have helpful conversations with young voice hearers, and for there to be space lo explore voice hearing from different perspectives and frameworks, including multiplicity and voice hearing in relation to disordered eating. We continue to be invited to speak al national and international conferences and events. One-lo-one support remains an integral part of our work, with parents and young people finding onversations with our team a safe space lo be listened to, validated and supported. We find ourselves supporting people from a range of backgrounds and with varying experiences of mainstream mental health services. Some have found mental health seNices helpful, others have found them harmful, and everything in between. It speaks volumes Ihat Voice Collective are able to provide helpful support to people regardless of their experiences of other servi￿S. "The support we get via zoom Galls is just amazing. Having an opportunity to talk is such good ther8py. However, as well as being able to lalk we also problem solve issues 8nd always end the call armed wilh some invaluable advice/slrategies/8ltemalive way of looking at things.

The shared wisdom and siipport are inva1118ble to me and18m very grateful foryou facilitation and the contribution of all the members" (young person) The Camden Peer Mentoring Programme is an innovative partnership between Mind in Camden and Fitzrovia Youth in Action, helping sGhools and youth organisations to develop a culture of peer support for young people. The programme is designed to help normalise the act of talking about emotional health and the challenges young people face, and it helps young people lo identify where to get support if needed. In each participating school or youth organisation. young people are recruited, trained and supported to provide mentoring to their peers. The training is AQA accredited and explores values on mental health, empathy and the differenl ways lo support someone, listening and communicalion skills, boundaries, and confidentiality in peer mentoring. More and more of the spaces have returned to face-to-face as restrictions have allowed. We worked with a range of young people and utilised a variety of model types and techniques including traditional peer mentoring, aclivily-based group models, and peer support discussion based models. Voice Collective have been supporting their peer mentoring programme being held in Camden schools, as well as supporting their Girls Group, which is a peer support space for girls in Camden, and offers a range of activities including cooking, in addition to conversations about what is going on in their lives and offering a space to explore their wellbeing or any issues that arise for them. We have been able lo deliver bespoke training to FYA staff and volunteers which explains the Hearing Voices Movement, as well as Mind in Camden's overall ethos and approach to understanding dislress and supporting those who are ovenMhelmed or struggling. We have liaised with the FYA team to discuss the peer mentoring scheme and to conceptualise how it might be utilised to support the Voice Collective Discord seNer and allow an opportunity for members of the server lo gain a qualification and become peer mentors. Other collaborations include FYA and Voice Collective delivering sessions which share our knowledge and expertise in peer support, in one-to-one contexts and group contexts respectively. Voice Collective continue to hold reflective spaces for group facilitators, staff and volunteers alike, whiGh remain open to FYA staff. iv) The London Hearlng Volces Network 'Just wanted to say a huge th8nk you for the training you deliv8red- it was such an ii)sightful and affirmlng experience. I found il really valuable to he8r nol only people's personal stories but Iheir id&as about some big questions.. what support sho(Ild look like, how we conceptualise me17tal h6allh, how lo talk about voices Il's bee17 a really fruilful space for me to think about how we woH( at PP. I've been telling the whole te8m about f8scinating the training was and how wann and mobilisii?g Ihe almosphere was" (training attendee) The London Hearing Voices Network (LHVN) has continued to operate online and deliver Hearing Voices Group Facilitation training, regular critical mental health trainings. as well as our quarterly nelwork meeting. We have continued to offer our events online to reduce costs and increase accessibility, however we did hold a network meeting in collaboration with the Erasmus funded project 'Art of Voices, which was in-person and offered creative sessions with attendees as well as general discussion. Highlights this year have been a joint training with the Hearing Voices Project Manager and the Vvildflower Alliance in the US, discussing peer support for people who are suicidal and exploring suicidalily with an ethos that is also reflected in our work around voice hearing. This is an area of growing interest in the mental health sector, with a real demand for critical or alternative perspectives on understanding and supporting those who are struggling with suicidality. Several attendees wished to b8 kèpt informed of_: any further developments LHVN might make on this top,'c, 10

MIND IN CAMDEN TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 and led to the Hearing Voices Project Manager delivering a training session on the intersection of healing voices and suicidality. We also are very pleased with the delivery of our quarterly network meetings. Working online has given them a new vibranGy, appealing lo people who may not previously have come lo Camden, furthering our reach and Influen￿ within the world of Hearing Vol￿S and critical mental health approaches. We have also held regular online reflective spaces for facilitators of hearing voices groups in London in order to provide the supportive spaces which used to be part of the network meetings. LHVN were able to partner with the Phoenix Servi￿ and other Mind in Camden seNiGes lo try a virtual reality experience called 'Goliath' which is based on someone's personal experience of being diagnosed with schizophrenia, being hospitalised, and finding community and support in the gaming ' world. The Hearing Voices Project Manager spoke at the launch event for Goliath at the BFI in May 2022 in partnership with We Are Anagram who developed Goliath. The Hearing Voices Project Manager has also been invited to speak al several other events, including a panel event for discussing and launching a series of films depicting people's experiences of hearing voices and diagnosis or psychiatric treatment with Art Angel. LHVN remains a first point of contact for people researching voice hearing and looking for signposting or support, and we continue to respond lo enquiries about hearing voices groups and the hearing voices movement more widely. Erasmus Project 'I've been a client and 8 Iherapisl foryears so I saw things that were close to me. There was a lot of theory, but it was also spontaneous, 8 total giving over to the process, so unpretentious and that s important. It s so simple, and so much was said without using words. I like listening to stories so that was 8 nice w8Y to learn, through authentic storytelling. I could see how much hard work 8nd how much energy went into it. I'm grateful the hierarchy is horizontal, that s the reason I became a Iherapisl" The Erasmus funded project, called 'Art of Voices, is a partnership between Mind in Camden and various projects operating in the Balkans countries and the general Balkans Hearing Voices Network. The aim is to create a training resource aimed at professionals to work with voice hearers in crealive and compassionate ways, composed of a faGe-to-face pilot delivery of the training in Sarajevo, and then an online version of the training for people to access outside of the in-person training. Mind in Camden's role has been to largely oversee and supetvise the development of the training, using our specialist knowledge in developing trainings, especially around supporting voice hearers, and to guide the projects in the Balkans to collectively deliver a cohesive training which covers many creative modalities, inGluding bibliotherapy, arts based activities, and dance, drama and movement. Each participating project has specialised in a particular modality and has individual supeNisions as well as having access to group supervisions for everyone to come together and ensure that the individual modules link together. Due to language barriers and the mental toll of people trying to convey their thoughts and reflections in English rather than their first languages. group supervisions have been held in two parts, the firsl having the project members coming together to talk in Bosnianlserbianlcroatian in a shared understanding of the languages, and Ihe second part in English to discuss what had arisen in the first part of supervision with the Mind in Camden team. We hosted a rneeling in London in February 2023 for participating projects to meèt face-to-face and discuss the projeGI and to build team cohesion, and to plan the multiplier events to promote the training, as well as thinking ahead to the delivery of the training in Sarajevo. Mind in Camden was responsible for the multiplier event in London and held it in partnership with LHVN, offering in- person creative sessions to allendees and discussing the project with them.

MIND IN CAMDEN TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 Mind in Camden is offering ongoing guidance and supervision to the projects involved, and is working towards the pilot delivery of the training in Sarajevo, as well as considering how the training might be transitioned to an online learning format. vi) Backroom support for International Hearing Voices Projects (IHVPI: International Hearing Voices Projects is 8 small voluntary led UK registered charity that provides support for the Inlernational Hearing Voices Movement by convening an annual international congress (Recently held in Canada, Greece, Spain, the USA and France, and online during COVID- 19 Reslrictionsl, CLJrating the Intervoice website at htt 'llwww.intervoiceonline.or providing a social media presence and providing support for budding national movements. There are now around 24 countries that have their own established national hearing voices networks, and many more where the movement is growing. This has been supported by the pioneering work of Ihis organisation. For several years Mind in Camden has provided backroom services lo IHVP including basic accounting, co-ordinating AGM meetings and the submission of required information to regulators in return for a small management charge levied on income. We are pleased to undertake this work as it is in line with our values and our aim to promote the adoption of more person-centred and human righls-based approaches to mental health. b) The Phoenix Wellbeing and Recovery Service The Phoenix Wellbeing and Recovery service is one of our longest-running offers. It is emblematic of Mind in Camden's mission to promote self-defined recovery and to work alongside people with current and past lived experiences, co-creating an active, thriving community. It is described by members as a safe space wh&re people can be themselves without fear ofjudgement. Members directly support each other with their wellbeing and co-creale an environment which fosters independence and interdependence. We aim to create every workshop, group or event with participants rather than for them, giving people a sense of agency over Iheir lives and Ihe support available to them. Phoenix has now returned to entirely in-person activities and support spaces. Members and slaff hold community meetings on Tuesdays and Fridays, where participants co-produce weekly activities and organise regular community trips around London and the surrounding areas such as Brighton and Cambridge. Members have continued to grow the programme, adding to our roster of ongoing group activities, including yoga, laughing meditation, art club. hearing vol￿S peer support, anxiety peer support, knitting, and a Sunday social club. These activities run alongside our external support spaces, including various therapeutic groups, benefits support, and employment workshops. The Phoenix member volunteer programme has expanded to six member volunteers. Member Volunteers actively support new members to integrate into the service, support staff and volunteers in setting up the spaces ahead of events, facilitate walking groups, and co-facilitate peer support spaces. The increased confidence members have reported in taking on more responsibility within the Phoenix has directly translated lo these members volunteering with other organisations and. in one case, gaining part-time employment as a sessional worker in another charity organisation. The volunteer programme has been set up and delivered by sessional workers and is becoming a crucial part of people's recovery. We established a dedicated staff member responsible forworking with members to find mainstream opportunities and offers in the community. This role identifies and supports people attending activities outside of Mind in Camden. Members were keen to participate in volunteer opportunities throughout the borough but needed help figuring out where lo start. We sel this role up in 12

MIND IN CAMDEN TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 collaboration with members to support those considering moving on from Phoenix as part of their managed exit strategy. The Phoenix continues to work alongside the Healthy Minds Community Programme to produce monthly Zen Day wellbeing festivals, which operate as an open-to-all promotion of wellbeing activities people can practice in their own lime and serves lo promote both the Healthy Minds Community Programme and the Phoenix Servi￿ to the broader population. The initiative inlrodLAces Phoenix members to community centres throughout Camden," promoting their services and supporting members to familiarise themselves with multiple support hubs. Developing closer ties lo the Healthy Minds Community Programme suits our longer-term aim of helping members to move on from the service. The Healthy Minds Programme bridges the more held space of the Phoenix service and non-mental health services. Our peer support groups {PSGs) continue to grow in size and popularity. We opened a second anxiety group at the beginning of October 2022 to accommodate demand. We plan to open several more in the coming months, including a bereavement group. This year we established an ongoing monthly supervision group for facilitators of PSGS, These monthly supervision groups allow facilitators to reflect and share best practices, experience being a group member, and try co- facilitating in a supportive space where they can get live feedback. The Phoenix setvice's funding is due to end in March 2024, and members have been working with the ¢ouncil in a series of engagement meetings to co-produce what the future of day services will look like in the borough. Members have been excited to contribute to the plans and have their say on the future of the service, giving lols of valuable feedback lo commissioners. Members organised themselves, planning the route to the Greenwood Centre where the engagement session occurred, and collaborated to ensure their voices were heard. We are proud to have recently recruited one of our long-running lived-experience sessional workers into the position of Recovery Worker. The recruit has volunteered with Mind in Camden for several years before becoming a sessional worker during the pandemic. They have been inslrumental in setting up and supporting member volunteers, providing high￿UalItY one-to-one support. They are a role model to members, and we are pleased they are now a fully-fledged Mind in Camden team member. Key Figures: 660/0 of our co-produced activities are based in community settings. 1,248 sessions delivered throughout the year, of whiGh at least 800kn were peerlvolunteer led Over 90 people attended our peer support groups We trained 12 new volunteers who joined Ihe service this year in addition to the six member volunteers. What our members and volunteers say: "During my time with the Phoenix community I h8ve had the pleasure of meeting and working with a divprse group of bright, ¢Aring 8nd dediG8tpd individuals.

MIND IN CAMDEN TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 was an honour to learn ai3d grow with service users who regiilarly joined the Dance movemenl psychotherapy open group" c) The Camden Mental Health Alliance The Alliance was envisioned lo plan, coordinate and manage a range of support and services for those who are concerned about their own or their family or friends, mental wellbeing. With other partners, it IS Working to build community resilience and reduce stigma and inequalities in mental health. Alliance partners include services at Likewise, VoiceAbility and The Advocacy Project, as well as our Alliance manager al Voluntary AGlion Camden and our commissioners at Camden Council. The initial contract, which commenced in April 2022, is two years with an option to extend for further year. The assumption from Camden is that if successful it will be re-contracled with a longer time period. In Ihis, the firsl year of the Alliance, a huge amount of work was pul into forging the relationships and innovative ways of working which will hopefully take this radical partnership to new strenglhs for many years to come. At Ihe same time, each constituent service has continued lo work to ils strengths, within the same sel of resources. We were yet lo see the official 'swilching on, of much of the extra work we had done, developing the Front Door single point of access, our joint Getting to Know You service user navigation phase, and our rebrand as a group of strongly networked organisalions. We were already seeing the benefits of an influx of new opportunities from the strengthening of our partnerships, as well as efficiencies in training and capacity sharing. il Alliance group work: The Healthy Minds Communlty Programme {HMCP) The Healthy Minds Community Programme {HMCP) bridges the gap between mental health provisions and community-based services by collaborating with Camden organisalions and r8sidents to deliver free wellbeing activities. Our wellbeing activities are group based and specifically tailored for people who may be experiencing difficulties with their mental health or are socially isolated. Our groups evolve to reflect current Camden demographics and consist of adult education courses, cornmunity art projects, creative workshops, and sports and fitness groups. HMCP has been operating as part of the Camden Alliance since the beginning of the financial year. working alongside other charitable organisations to deliver a more integrated system, ultimately benefitling service users as we advance. Members and lived experience advisors have been and continue to be instrumental in developing how we operate, from co-producing a terms of reference to designing the Alliance-wide referral form. One of the highlights of this year's programme has been our collaboration with the Foundling Museum. Initially sel up as a series of tasters, we worked with the Foundling Museum to deliver three eight-week courses where members worked wilh a commLFnity artist lo develop knot-making, printing, lie-dye and textiles skills. Each course culminated in a public exhibition in one of the museum's galleries. Members co-produced copy for the Foundling Museum website and took ownership of Iheirwork. The Foundling Museum put on a series of maker's spaces between these courses, where previous attendees were encouraged to share their skills with newcomers. This sense of sharing skills enabled one particularly isolated participant to become an art gallery volunteer with the museum independently. Through the Alliance, we have developed closer ties with Likewise. who now regularly hosl our Zen Day.. Urban Wellbeing Festivals. We continue to run our Urban Wellbeing Festivals monthly, touring different community centres within Camden. This year we took up residencies in the Bengali Workers Association's Surma Centre, Likewise, and Casllehaven and Queen's Crescent Community Centres. Touring different community centres has broadened our appeal to diverse populations and 14

MIND IN CAMDEN TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 introduced our current membership lo valuable local resources such as weekly food banks, free employment training, free classes and much more. Our long-running partnership with the Mary Ward Centre ended in March 2022 due to the Mary Ward relocating lo Stratford. Our membership values having access to adult education courses as part of the programme, and we established a new partnership with the Workir)g Men's College to fulfil this area. We ran three adult workshops through WM College, including sculpture, frame making and pottery. Alongside this, members had access lo a £65 bursary lo pay for a course within VVM College'8 current prospectus. Key Figures". We re￿iVed 131 referrals representing a 59 % inGrease from the previous year. All 131 be¢arne new Healthy Minds members within four weeks of us receiving their referral. We trained 20 development and engagement volunteers who support us by co-facilitating our groups, offering emotional and practical support, and calling around members lo engage them in our activities. We provided over 800 hours of group support spaces, over 85°A of these were delivered out in the community. 243 people allended our offers throughout this period, including our current membership, previous members, and the general public interested in our programme. We delivered six tailored "How to have better conversations about mental health. trainings lo our partner organisations. 15 members used our WM College bursary to fund mainstream adult education courses Fe6dback from our mental health training: "Thank you so much for the excellent Iraining session today. il was very insightful and enjoyable" "The thing I liked most about the Iraining was the traii?erfs knowledge of mental health ~ 8ny questions we had were answered really well" "I came away from the Iraining being more aware of the external f8Ctors that affect people's mgntal heallh, as well as my own wellbeing" "I havgn't been so honest and open in years! Thank you" li) Alliance one-to-one work: The Mental Health Social Prescribing service {MHSP) Our Social Prescribing team value a collaborative and human approach. At the heart of its work, MHSP supports clients to consider what's important to them and make meaningful connections within their community. Through up to 12 one-to-one sessions, they explore ways in which clienls can enrich their lives by doing things that support their relationships and mental health. By engaging with social prescribing and identifying their strengths, Clients can build confidence in making decisions that best serve their own interests and wellbeing. With MHSP'S consistent and reliable support, clients can leave feeling more hopeful and inspired for their futures. The MHSP service is a partnership between Camden and Islington NHS Foundation Trust and Mind in Camden. The seNice is now part of the Camden Core Teams and offers Social Prescribing to people within Primary Care. The team aims to work with people who have social needs which are best supported through linking with community resource5 rather than through statutory Servi￿$. Over the period of April 2022 - March 2023, some key developments are=

MIND IN CAMDEN TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 MHSP has begun using Dialog+ instead of previous monitoring tools to measure outcomes, in preparation for alignment of outcome measurement throughout the Camden Mental Health Alliance services. MHSP was a part ofthe old Camden Primary Care Mental Health Network, which became defunct in September 2022. Instead, MHSP has transitioned lo become part of the Camden Core Teams, from where it now receives its referrals. The previous MHSP manager moved lo a new role in Mind in Camden and the newly recruited manager was not able to access Ihe NHS IT systems with clienl referrals for some months, due to delay at Camden and Islingion. In addition, the full-lime link worker was unexpectedly off sick for several months and a parl time link work8r left and was re-recruiled. All of this increased wailing lisl times. The Mental Health Social Prescribing Group was started to provide a peer support space for individuals who have been Ihrough the Social Prescribing programme. From April 2022 until March 2023, the team received 156 referrals from healthcare professionals, including psychiatrists, nurses, social workers, psychologists, GPS from The Core Teams, icope and differenl Camden based GPS. As a result, the team has conducted 140 initial assessments and a total of 270 sessions, delivered according to client preferences via Zoom sessions, face-to-fa¢e, and telephone appointments. Since the Camden Core Teams do not yel have a building we can use, Link Workers have moved lo working in a variety of environments, including Barnes House and local community centres. This has increased alignment with Mind in Camden's values in that clients have reported feeling like the sessions are less clinical as th8y were previously at St Pancras Hospital, Camley Centre. Staff have reported enjoying working from Barnes House as this gives a sense of unity with Mind in Camden as an organisalion, and other staff members working in a similar capacity. The partnerships with the South Core Team, Northwest Core Team and Kentish Town Core Team are conlinuously flourishing, as link workers are involved in team meetings and establish regular contact with referrers to feed back the work done with clients. The MHSP service user group has been adapted according to client feedback and the Social Prescribing team's value assessment. Clients that go through the one-lo-one SP journey are offered an optional invitation to the group. This has been found to create longer-lasting impact of Social Prescribing. provide 'social practice, for those who still struggle with social conneclion, and a way to soften the ending of client's one-to-one sessions with their link worker. A long-standing Social Prescribing volunteer has offered creative narrative workshops to a select few clients (six to date) to co-creale a story out of their journey. The feedback on this has b8en remarkably positive, highlighting the value of SP work and the creative narrative workshops. iii) Alliance Community Development: Cultural Advocacy Project The Alliance Community Development work within Mind in Camden is comprised of the Cultural Advacacy Project team. This team, delivered in partnership between Mind in Camden and Voluntary Action Camden (VAC) has aimed to develop partnerships with BME community groups and organisations to embed culturally appropriate mental heaKh and wellbeing programmes, focusing on connectedness, reducing isolation and building resilience. Community volunteers and leaders are upskilled in mental health awareness and facilitation of peer support groups, wellbeing events and individual support to increase community resilience. The team also builds connections between community organisations and the Trust, facilrtating feedback on learning and community experiences to create dialogue and change. 16

MIND IN CAMDEN TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 Some key developments are of note over the period this report covers: The Cultural Advocacy Project has begun tts rebrand into the Community Development team, where il is beginning to expand ils flexible and ground-up learning approach lo community development towards working with other community groups representing those with protected characteristics The Community Development team has begun to work alongside Core Team Community Development workers, sharing best practice and increasing reach across the diversity of need in Camden's population and embedding work within statutory services. Community Development continues its work with refugees, e.g., running a three-day training on welcoming new arrivals, intended lo support the new Ukrainian population in Camden, its ward work supporting BME patients approaching discharge, and its community outreach through partnerships with various organisations. The service is running partnerships with eight organisation5 this year, continuing to support Bangladeshi, Black African and Arab communities and continuing partnerships with school parents, estate-based community cenlres and faith ￿ntres. Peer support groups run weekly around the borough, with about 70 people attending. New groups include a knitting and craft group for women from Hong Kong, as this was identified to be a new population group in need of community support. We continue to employ an imam embedded in the Camden Arabic Association community as a sessional worker participating in our team. What our members say: "It s a lifeline" "It's a place where I can socialise and feel less isolated and alone. I really value coming to the space beG8use I meet so many like-minded people. We are a real comn7unity" "I love the music Iherapy group. I love singing my heart out and hearing Others sing too" 'Lovely f8Gilit8tors, great work, very inclusive and diverse" °The staff were bnlliant 8nd very hiimanising" "I find it calming being here.

MIND IN CAMDEN TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 d) The Support and Connect Service The Support & Connect Service is a collaboration between Mind in Camden and Likewise- a local community organisation that is also a valued partner in our Alliance services. The setvice embeds our staff into statutory core mental health services in Camden. It has progressed from being a COVID-19 response service meeting the needs of the most vulnerable people in the borough during the pandemic, to a service whose reach includes efforts to influence broader systemic change as per the NHS Mental Health Community Framework. Towards the end of the year the service was tendered out and Mind in Camden and Likewise successfully partnered in a bid to cor7tinue to provide the service under contract from Aprtl 2023. The seNice continues to offer person-centred practical and emotional support and aims to be holistic, individualised, flexible, and responsive to the needs of each person, empowering them to guide their mental health recovery using a co-production approach. It follows a rough structure of offering maximum len to twelve sessions within a maximum of six monlhs. Support workers then review the work with the individual and either continue, close the seNice, or offer a pause. Pausing means that for a period of six months, service users may come back to have additional focused support lasting two lo three sessions. The service has continued to evolve and expand. It nDW comprises three sub-services.. one-to-one community mental health recovery support work, welfare rights support, and community development work. Over the last year, the service has become increasingly embedded within the three Camden Mental Health Core Teams {Kentish Town, North, and South), addressing the need for joint work with VCS (Voluntary and Community Sector), SOGial care, and clinical NHS teams in line with the Community Mental Health Framework forAdults and OlderAdults. As a Core Team service, the Support and Connect service has b8en able to take advantage of being part of a broader network of professionals. where cross referrals and input from statutory seNices is slreamlined. All refeTrals now come in via the Core Team inbox and are Ihen passed on to the service. as appropriate. Mind in Camden and Likewise colleagues have been working closely together to align the work across the two organisations, reflect on shared values, and consider how these are carried out in practice. Reflective spaces have also been set up for staff divided by Core Team to consider on how our seNiGe can smoothly navigate and integrate with NHS teams while adding a non-Glinical dimension to NHS services. Additionally, the support workers from both organisations have created a regular peer reflection space to ensure best practice and increase the impact of the work. In the last year, Mind in Camden has added two new community mental health reGovery support workers to the service, making a total of six support workers, including the senior support worker, t￿0 in each Core Team. There are six support workers from Likewise. Mind in Camden support workers have offered the service to 198 people through our one-to-one support between 1 $1 April 2022 and 31 $1 March 2023. The service has also recruited and trained eight new VDlunteers to extend the social engagement opportunities with the one-to-one work. The welfare rights support position offers one-to-one support for more complex benefits cases, while also upskilling the team and developing resources to be used across the Core Teams. At present we are looking to recruit a welfare rights worker by partnering with Citizèns Advice Camden as they have extensive experience in this field. The community development work aims to understand and build connections wilh local communities in Camden for the purpose of addressing mental health concerns and barriers to access in these communities. The community development worker began engaging with the Core Teams over the 18

MIND IN CAMDEN TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 last year and now serves the South Core Team. He has connected with numerous community organisations, such as North Camden Zone, Holborn Community Association, the Bengali Workers Association, the Camden Chinese Community Centre, Filzrovia Youth in Action, and UCL Wellbeing SeNices. He has also held numerous mental health and wellbeing workshops. The role and work continue lo develop with the Iwo counterpart roles silting in Likewise for the other two Camden Core Teams. The impact of the service is best described by the people who use it.. "I was fortunate lo be able to access the sewice in March 2Q21 and Èo have weekly on8-to-one sessions with a Con7munily Mental Heallh Recovery Support Worker.

Effect on Activities: The majority of our services continue to facè increased need. Post COVID-19 we have also experienced Gonsiderably more difficulties appointing to some posts, though this varies and may be contributed to by other factors that have impacted on Ihe economy. Other organisations we are in contact with doing similar work report similar issues. Financlal Impact: There has been no long-term financial impact beyond some funding lost during the period. During lockdowns and restrictions, we were granted extra money to maintain and even extend our serviGes- some of this funding has been confirmed for future years, making contribution to our financial health and stability. Cyber Sacurity Certificate: The onset of the pandemic significantly affected our working patterns with every member of staff working at home for some or all ofthe lime. There were many benefits to this new flexibility, but it also brought with it new technological and practical challenges, including an increased threat from cybercrime. We worked closely with our IT company to address this issue and we were awarded a Cyber Security Certifi'cate. We are aware that having sound procedures is only part of the task and thal we must continue to be conslantly vigilant. Ongolngi future and wlder Impacts: In lerms of how we provide services we have found that many can be provided effectively and safely online, so we continue this element of our services in mixed online and face-to-face services. fj Public benefit of our services We have assessed the benefi't that our charity provides to the public through our services as..

MIND IN CAMDEN TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 g) Our environmental footprint and the impact of our services Mind in Camden is committed to reducing ils environmental impad at our centre and offices at Barnes House and in our working practices generally. For over ten years we have been a member of the Camden Climate Change Alliance, which is a Council initiative aiming to reduce the borough's carbon footprint. We have benefited from advi￿, annual monitoring, workshops and local green initiatives from the Alliance. Our carbon footprint has reduced by 530A Sin￿ 2012113 and we have won several award8 for our work. In December, we were selected to take part in the Mayor {of London)'s Business Climate Challenge, which entails making a commitment to carbon reduction and we benefit from £6,000 of technical support to h8lp us to achieve it. 5. The contribution of volunteers "I have really loved volunleering with Iwind in Camdenl J have learned so much about Admin and Front-line work and have found a job as an Admii?istrator ii? 8 G178rily. But besides to this, I have enjoyed so much lo be around people who care about mental health and aboul each other. It has been a grèat experience for me" (admin volunteer) .1 really appreGl8te the chance lo contribute something...to give something back...., (Phoenix volunteer) The contributions made by volunteers is vital and we appreciate the diverse skills and fresh perspectives they bring to our seNices. Many of our volunteers are people who use our services or who have lived experience of mental health issues. During the pandemic, the role of volunteers changed and there were fewer of them. Those who were able to help mainly engaged with online activities and providing doorstep support during the lockdowns. During this year, we have returned to in-person volunteering and have reGruited new teams to help Phoenix, Social Prescribing, Hearing Voices, Healthy Minds and Support and Connect. The people who us8 our se￿iceS are encouraged to take on volunteering responsibilities. Roles can range from people simply helping out with the pradical aspects of Servi￿ delivery like answering emails, setting up rooms or providing refreshments, lo running or co-facilitating groups, lo providing one-to-one support, depending on what people want to do. We Continue to b8 very ably supported by our Trustees who are all volunteers. There has been an average of 75 volunteers in 2022-23. Pre-COVID-19 there were between 100- 120 in any given y8ar. but this has reduced due to a combination of some of our services being reconfigured and rt being more difficult to find volunteers for some roles. We usually provide several work placements for local schools at the 8nd of the school year, but there were no requests last year. At the end of 2022-23 we had started to r8ceive requests again for the summer of 2023. In 2022-23, we estimate volunteers contributed approximately 10,920 hours or 1,560. working days. Using the London Living Wage rate of£11.95 per hour as a benchmark, the financial benefit would have been equivalent to £130,494. 21

MIND IN CAMDEN TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 6. Financial review Principal income sources Our principal sour¢8s of income were: Camden Council provided £1,008,585 {580AI of our income through contracted servI￿s, including Alliance and Phoenix services. Charitable Trusts and companies, several of whom fund our Hearing Voices projeds, represent £119,665 (7%} of our in¢ome. £529,702 {300hl comes from local NHS org8nisations funding Social Pr8scribing and new Single Point of Contact projects. £52,058 (3%> comes from Camden Mind Ventur8S, the charity's trading subsidiary. £8,999 (1 %) comes from Personal Budget The remaining £29,535 {1%} is from sales, mainly of training, some fees, and one-off donations. It is of note that £69,490 {40h) of our total income goes to pay for services from other organisations. £479,789 (270A} of our total turnover goes out in payments to our Alliance partners. Investment policy Most of the charity's funds are revenue grants to be spent within each budget year. We need quick access to our limited reserves in order to cover cash flow and to meet unexpected expenditure. so there are no funds available for long lerm investment. The Management Committee delegates the Finance Director to invest the relatively lesser amounts of funds that the organisation has available in a short-term money market account to generate interest, with low interest rates this aclivity amounted to only £3,297 in this financial year. Reserves policy Current Reserves levels are outlined on Page 40 of the accounts. Nole that some reserves are restricted while the poliGy below covers unrestricted and designaled reserves combined. Why Mind in Camden needs reserves. a} They help to manage the risks of legallfinancial liability around ent8ring into contracts with individuals and organisations. b> They protect the chaTity from insolvency or serious cash flow issues during times of change. c} They enable us to temporarily support projects that are short of funding until funding is found. W8 do not see the deferment of difficult deGisions as an effective use of reserves so our criterion for Ihis use is that it must be shown to be likely thal funds will be raised to cover the costs. d} Often when organisalions face a substantial loss of income, they have lo quickly shed posts and lose core capacity that could have helped to generate more income, or to better manage the transition to a lower income state. Since we now have fewer but larger contracts, this presents an increased risk, so there may be a need to support core capacity in the short to medium term in order to 'buy time, to fundraise andlor make a well planned and gradual transition lo a new administrative structure. e} lfvhen reserves are at an acceplable level, we can us8 them as an investment. For example, we have used designated funds to conduct a pilot projecl to meet the needs of local refugees and to refurbish our premises to make the space better for our service users and staff. fj We also have liability for many repairs in our premises leases. Reserves provide a way of meeting one-off obligations for major items Ihat would not be attractive to funders. g) Resèrves can play a positive role in cash flow management, espécially when slatutory grants are often late in arriving. 22

MIND IN CAMDEN TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 h) It is generally seen as a marker for financial health and prudence to have an appropriate level of reserves - it demonslrales financial competence and helps in ensuring we pass due diligence tests for conlraots or other partnerships. il Some forms of revenue income carry a higher-level risk, for example, contracts where income 16 on a per capita basis and income that relies on sales. Reserves provide a buffer if our forecasts prove to be inaccurate - this is a particular risk when engaging with new contrads and untried markets, which is often the nature of our environment. j) Where higher levels of risk mean higher potential gains, the better our reserves level is, the more risk we can reasonably and safely sustain. This can increase confidence when, for example, bidding in lowest unit cost competitive tenders - however, we would always be prudent in assessing how much risk is involved and identifying the benefits of taking it. The level of reserves needed. Since reserves are accrued in order to provide for unforeseen circumstances, it is not possible to state an exact figure that will cover all eventualities. A commonly used rule of thumb in estimating the reasonable amount of reseTves a voluntary organisalion should have been that of three months. running costs {25%) of the organisation's overall turnover. For a long time, it was unrealistic for us to achieve this because each year we struggled to create a balanced budget and were often faced with a choice of Grealing a fund for reserves at the expense of posts andlor services. Since the aim of reserves is to préseNé the organisation's Servi￿$, we believe it would be contradictory to cul services in ordér to create more reseNes. However, due to areful management of expenditure, some unexpected income and better costings of applications we have now Suc￿eded in building reserves to an appropriale level. A further Gonsequence to us of larger contracts is Mind in Camden taking on the'bankerf role in relalion to a large Alliance conlract. Unlike the lead provider role - where we subcontract some elements of services and therefore retain liability and responsibility for them - this involves us being contracted for 'passing on, funding to other organisations in the Alliance, with the funder retaining liability and responsibility which is then shared with all partners in the Alliance. This means that, while our lurnover increases by the sum given to us to pass on, including this onsiderable sum (this year £479,789) in our calculations for reserves levels would distort the rese￿eS target. We manage this by deducting the passed-on sum from both income and expenditure in order to establish the level of rèserves needed. Pro-active management of reserves We note that many funders 8xpress concerns about making grants to organisations that hold more than one year's resérves. We will automatically review the sltuation if we reach more than a six-month level. However, these percentage levels are proportionate to turnover, so we will take into account potential shrinkage andlor anticipated growth in establishing if our level of reserves is reasonable. For example, if we think that turnover will SLtbstantially increase or be very variable in subsequent years we might hold a higher level of reserves in anticipation of these changes, as reserves are something Ihat, by their nature, cannot be directly fundraised for and so must be built up over time. Also, we recognise that a level of reserves above our target may be h81pful if we do lose one of our larger contracts, so we will not 'spend down, to the 25%18vel unless it is juslified or it meet some urgent need. Even with this in mind, it is highly unlikely that We would ever allow reserves to go above the one- year level. 23

MIND IN CAMDEN TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023 In the same way. we would not maintain the 25% of reserves at any cost, so we may decide (with good reason) to allow them to dip below this level, in which case we will asse5S the risk level and take action accordingly. It is unlikely we would allow reserves to drop below 140/0 of turnover. What steps we will take to establishlmaintain reserves We will continue to manage risk with conservative budgeting and tight control of spend, achieving surpluses wherever possible, and to actively monitor reserves through analysing the impact each revenue budget will have on reserves levels in each budgeting process. We will also look to ensure the structural inlegrity of our revenue budget by identifying Ihe underlying causes of any ongoing tendency lo set deficit budgets or to use reserves in ways that could sub51antially undermine their level. We will, when identifying designated funds from reseNes for capital or other one-off expenditure, always consider th8 impact on the level of reserves overall. Designated expenditure Given that reserves are at an a¢ceplable Fevel, the Trustees have designated funds to improve our premises, facilities, services and online Presen￿. The movement of designated expendrture during thè y8ar is explained in note 13 in the main accounts. 7. Plans for the future Our plans includ8'.

Responsibilities of tho trustees As explained more fully in the Trustees, Responsibilities Statement, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied thal they give a true and fair view and for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from mat8rial mis5tatemenl, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assuran￿ is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregale, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users laken on the basis of these fi'nancial statements. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedur8s in line with our responsibilitles, Outlined above, to det8Ct material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud are set out below. In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following.. We enquired of management, which included obtaining and reviewing supporting documentation, concerning the charity's policies and procedures relating to: 27

We reviewed the financial statement disclosures and tested these to supporting do¢umentalion to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations. We performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud. In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, we tested the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments, assessed whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias and lested significant transactions that are unusual or those outside the normal coutse of business.
