TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
The Board of Trustees, who act as Directors of the Charity for the purposes of Company Law, and Trustees for charity law purposes, submit their Annual Report and the Financial Statements of Hammersmith and Fulham Association for Mental Health for the year ended 31 March 2023. The Board of Trustees confirm that the Annual Report and Financial Statements of the Charity comply with current statutory requirements, the requirements of the Charity's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) - Charities SORP FRS102.
Objects
The objects of the Association are:
-
To work for and promote the preservation and safeguarding of mental health and the prevention and treatment of mental disorders among both adults and children; and
-
To work for and promote the study of research into mental health and mental disorders and to obtain and make records of and disseminate information concerning the same.
Activities
We are able to meet our objects through a combination of service provision and strategic influencing. Our wide range of services consists of activities which preserve, promote and safeguard individuals' mental health. Some examples of these services are health promotion with young people in schools, community-based activities such as advocacy, advice and information training in the workplace. Our work in strategic influencing further reaches object 1) by putting the voices of people with mental health problems, and our own professional opinions into a wide variety of settings where the design and delivery of services can be influenced for the betterment of people with mental health problems. It is through this work that we are able to meet object 2) by Influencing commissioning bodies and the West London Transformation Board.
Public Benefit
The Association provides services to benefit those with mental health problems. People with serious mental health issues are one of the most excluded groups in society with an employment rate below 43%. Around 1 in 4 of the population will have a mental health problem at some time in their life and stress is the leading cause of workplace sickness. Around a third of all GP time is taken up seeing people with mental health problems.
Mental health problems can have a devastating effect on peoples' lives and the goals of the Association are both to prevent mental health problems escalating where this can be avoided and supporting recovery if the mental health problem has become serious. Our projects are in 3 categories:
-
Preventing mental health problems escalating. These are of public benefit in preventing unnecessary distress for those affected, avoiding unnecessary expenditure in the health and benefits systems and improving the efficiency of the workplace by reducing sickness and staff turnover. Relevant services are:
-
Education in schools on mental health for both pupils, parents and teaching staff.
-
Psychoeducation- providing adults and young people with insight into their own mental health and developing a toolkit of coping mechanisms to prevent severe mental health issues.
-
Crisis alternative services that prevent mental health crises from escalating and divert effectively from statutory services like A&E.
-
Workplace wellbeing training to ensure employers recognize and support mental health issues in the workplace.

TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
-
Supporting people with mental health problems through the secondary mental health system. These are of public benefit in improving the quality of services delivered and aiding recovery through service users having a voice to influence what happens to them. Relevant services are:
-
Independent Mental Health Advocacy- a form of statutory advocacy for detained patients on wards. The service provides patients with information on their rights and help involve them in decisions concerning their care and treatment under the Mental Health Act 1983.
-
Education in schools on mental health- providing young people with an understanding of their mental health, to prevent mental health issues occurring/worsening in adulthood.
-
Information and Advice- a service that provides support with social issues (often a cause of mental health issues) such as housing, benefits or debt.
-
Supporting the recovery process. These services are of public benefit in preventing relapse, building wellbeing and, where possible, helping service users move on to independence and away from benefits. Relevant services are:
-
Counselling (via sub- contracted arrangement) providing solution focused therapy to individuals in housing associations, so that they can address their mental health issues and sustain their tenancies.
-
Hoarding service- helping provide education on hoarding, peer support groups and de-cluttering to our most vulnerable service users at risk of fires.
-
SMI health checks- helping those with serious mental illness engage with physical health checks through 1:1 support and assistance at appointments.
All services are carefully risk-assessed to ensure service user wellbeing is a priority and all staff work within safe boundaries to keep all concerned safe. In addition, service users are involved as far as possible in every aspect of the organisation’s activity to ensure services meet their needs through co-production, co-design, coevaluation and consultation. All projects are in line with our objects.
Our workplace training is a service provided to organisations and for which we charge a fee. This income allows us to increase the support we provide to people across the organisation in line with our objectives.
The Board of Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Association's objectives and in planning activities for the year and future periods.
Achievements and Performance
Message from Arti Modhwadia- Interim CEO
The last year has been a period of exciting growth and consolidation for our organisation, ending with the creation of a multi-year strategy and restructure of the Senior Management Team (SMT). This growth has been led by the operational teams but supported by our dynamic and agile central function- who have succeeded in making us a financially resilient organisation that is able to facilitate significant growth, recruitment and delivery of services.
This year the SMT saw the introduction of our marketing and comms lead as well our business development manager who generated significant income and helped diversify the services we offer.
HFEH Mind has gone from strength to strength, and we currently have 144 staff and volunteers compared to 101 staff and volunteers last year. At the height of deliver we have provided 25 services, have delivered 89 training sessions through Well at Work and supported 15,000 service users.
Our focus this year has been on enhancing our quality through embedding coproduction in everything we do making us a truly needs led organisation- led by the community for the community. In addition, we have enhanced our marketing and comms function to highlight the impact of our services and tell our story better to attract further funding, demonstrate value for money, with the quality of services we provide. We have seen growth continue across our youth and adult services function- with key projects such as a

TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
parenting project, WYSA (a digital service to help manage waiting lists for children and young people safely), Circle (a crisis service for young people), Safe Space Day (a crisis service for adults during the day) and a hoarding project. This has assisted in the continued diversification of our income portfolio as well as addressing the needs of our local community.
Our workplace wellbeing training function secured business from new organisations and sustained our relationships with existing organisations whilst diversifying our training offer to include EDI training and mental health first aid training.
Towards the end of the year, we focused our attention on creating a coproduced, multiyear strategy. Our strategy addresses the emerging needs of our community and responds to the challenges posed such as the cost-of-living crisis and health inequalities.
Furthermore, HEFH Mind continues to collaborate with Mind in Harrow and Hillingdon Mind, forming West London Mental Health Partnership. This broadens our influence and reach with our service user group and position us to engage with the new Northwest London commissioning areas as part of the NHS 10-year plan. We are a leading member of Mind in London, which is made up of 99% of all the local Minds operating in the Greater London area. We are also on the leadership team of the new commissioning vehicle for all health contracts in Northwest London- namely 3ST (3[rd] Sector Together)
Our plans for the coming years are ambitious but sustainable- based on the needs of our local community. We aim to ensure growth at pace- creating new services and dynamic campaigns that address the emerging needs of our service users. We want increased accessibility to our services and aim to remove as many barriers as possible to address health inequalities. And partnership working will be at the heart of everything we do with all our stakeholders, ensuring collaboration and insight.
Our ambition is underpinned by ensuring we do not lose sight of quality, resilience, innovation and communication. This will bring us closer to achieving our mission- we won’t give up until everyone experiencing a mental health problem gets both support and respect.
Adult Services
Message from Yvonne Jones- Interim Director of Adult Services
This year has been another year of continued growth and more diverse services- meeting the needs of our local community particularly in this cost-of-living crisis and in the face of health inequalities.
This year we have secured in adult services the QPM (quality performance mark) highlighting our quality in our advocacy services- again demonstrating our excellence and value for money.
The high quality and the impact of our services has led to:
-
The expansion of contracts- our safe space provision has a crisis line and a day crisis service due to the impact we achieved.
-
The extension of contracts- our advocacy contract and safe space contracts were renewed and extended.
-
• New services being created- we obtained a hoarding service, an advice service for H&F and Hounslow (which now compliments the services in Ealing) and a hub for women leaving forensic services.
At the height of delivery, we had a total of 55 staff, 12 volunteers and 20 services. This year, we have supported more clients than any other year- working with over 5,000 adults, young people and carers within our community.
We have been successful coproducing and co-evaluating our service users- an area of improvement for us. As such we have been able to identify the needs of our local community better- in line for our new strategy. Our ambitions are to:
-
Work in partnership - ensuring we develop and nurture our partnerships with all our stakeholders including service users, other organisations and commissioners. We will make sure we know what our community needs and design services that meet that need. We will collaborate with experts in other fields to deliver more holistic services. We will build relationships with our commissioning stakeholders to further enhance our growth and demonstrate our quality.
-
Achieve sustainable growth and develop services we know our community need- such as housing support, counselling services, South Asian peer support mental health groups, long term support etc.
-
Ensure we address health inequalities by ensuring our services are accessible to everyone in our community and any barriers are removed as far as possible.

TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
We are excited for what the future holds for adult services and keen to continue our growth- with good pace and want to ensure our quality is not compromised. Furthermore- we will be doing more to ensure staff remain resilient and the organisation keeps good operational staff. We will also have focus on ensuring our impact comes through our comms and we acknowledge where innovation can be used.
This is what our service users and professionals said about the work we have done this year:
“I am writing to say thank you. Your support from 2021 when my mother passed away and my mental health deteriorated got me through a really hard challenge. You may remember I was being made homeless. The matter continued and they took me to court. I have been so ill in the last year I'm on heavy medication and weekly support. But today the judge in court granted me tenancy of my home of 5 years and I'm so relieved I wanted to tell you I'm grateful for the help you once offered me. In my therapy, I speak of you and wish to one day help others when I'm more stable. Thank you for being there when no one else would speak for me”- Advocacy Client
“You service offer shines, the more we know the better we all are at getting people the support they need.”- Third Sector Organisation
Youth Services
Message from Nana Owusu- Director of Youth Services and Clinical Lead
The Youth Services has tackled many challenges over the last year, and the external environment continues to change rapidly. As we move forward, we will continue to listen and respond to the changing needs of the children, young people and families we support.
The past year has been a year of review, reflection and development of our expanding youth services. We have worked towards building on our historic foundations and plan for the future which is reflected in our new strategy that sets out our roadmap to 2026. This ambitious plan balances growth in several areas alongside long-term financial sustainability.
We remain fully committed to providing high quality, inclusive, culturally responsive and trauma informed services. This year has seen the steady development of a more robust youth leadership team (e.g fulltime deputy director, safeguarding & quality assurance lead, Strategic Programmes and Innovation Lead) and development of existing staff that will enable the youth service to execute the delivery of the plans set out in our strategy. Throughout the year we continued to work closely and collaboratively with existing partner agencies as well as established and build new partnerships e.g., CAMHS Crisis services, Ealing SAFE team, Roland, Metropolis, Local GP networks etc.
Our investment in digital resources and use of social media to complement and enhance our mental health provision has assisted in increasing our reach to young people across our boroughs. We continuously review and consult with our young advisors on the ever-changing space of technology and social media.
The team have worked hard throughout this year against a backdrop of living standards falling to historic lows and an unprecedented cost of living crisis fuelled by soaring inflation and years of real terms cuts to benefits that are supposed to meet basic living needs. I’m proud that our services through one to one, groups, workshops etc have reached 11,554 children and their families to provide vital support.
This year saw the opening of the ‘CIRCLE’ UK’ first of its kind crisis prevention hub which has be co-produced with young people, parents and our statutory and voluntary sector organizations. As one of the key ambitions of the strategy was to expand the youth services into the borough of Ealing and Hounslow the opening of the CIRCLE is a notable achievement for the youth services.
In January we were offered the opportunity to become a provider for hospital youth work services for an amazing new service NEON. The NEON project brings together our local NHS and two other voluntary sector organisations alongside HFEH MIND youth services to provide an extra layer of holistic care for young people aged 16-24 that are admitted on to the clinical wards at Northwick Park and Ealing Hospitals.
The Youth service was a key contributor to a national research and paper looking at addressing health inequalities for young people from ethnic minority backgrounds. Our local work using therapeutic arts was cited as an example of inclusive and engaging practice. This paper is due to be published towards the end of 2023. Underwriting all our work is our absolute commitment to place youth voice at centre and forefront of our work. Ensuring all therapeutic services, activities and campaigns are service user lead, evidence-based and based on

best practice. Our youth service co-production group and activities has steadily expanded and developed and has strategically been embedded across all the youth service activities.
The HFEEH MIND Youth Services are ‘Unstoppable’. We won't give until every young person experiencing a mental health problem gets the respect and support, they deserve.
What our service users said about us:
- “After years of struggling to find someone to talk with frankly and openly, I felt a weight lifted and our meeting gave me the energy and strength to keep going. It was a relief to talk to you feeling that you were nonjudgemental or analysing me, but simply listening in order to understand and help my child.” - Parent
Training and Consultancy
Message from Alice Cheshire- Head of Well at Work
During the year, strong progress around the product offer was made with new products added to the suite, a refresh on pricing and a trial of free webinars. The pipeline struggled to build over the course of the year, but despite this, a margin was made on our training offer and generated unrestricted funding for the organisation.
Wellbeing has remained at the forefront of many organisations’ minds, but still in the form of signposting and free resources rather than firm investment and proactive action and so awareness raising, and personal connections will be critical over the next year.
Looking ahead, we will strengthen and rebuild with a particular focus on trying to build out the pipeline, identify some larger value contracts and build some strong local connections.
What our corporates said about us:
- “I find it hard to state just one positive, as the entire session was well put together and delivered brilliantly”. – Hounslow Council
“Really enjoyed the session. The most useful parts for me were the more work applicable parts. I think my knowledge of mental health is fairly good, but the key is being able to apply it in the work environment and with the many other factors that surround that”- Ogilvy
Other
All of us at Hammersmith and Fulham Association for Mental Health (HFEH Mind) reaffirmed our mission statement this year to enhance, remedy, maintain and protect the mental health of the residents. We have identified four key values which our projects and initiatives will work to.
These are:
-
Supporting empowerment;

FINANCIAL REVIEW_
Income
Following a period of significant growth, 2022/23 has been a year of consolidation.
----- Start of picture text -----
m
----- End of picture text -----
In 2022/23 HFEH Mind recorded income of £4.4m, a 10% increase on 2021/22 of £4m. The increase in income is mainly attributable to an expansion in Adult Services, from £1.2m in 2021/22 to £1.7m in 2022/23 and has been achieved through the provision of funding of new services, maintaining and building our current offer specifically the provision of Safe Spaces in each of the three Boroughs and within Accident and Emergency departments. Youth Services income has remained consistent year on year down slightly from £2.6m in 2021/22 to £2.4m in 2022/23. Training and Consultancy income has fallen, £90k in 2021/22 to £71 in 2022/23.
Expenditure
Expenditure has increased to reflect the further diversification of our service provision, funding carried forward from 2021/22 and increased funding obtained in the year.

HAMMERSMITH AND FULHAM ASSOCIATION FOR MENTAL HEALTH (Known as Hammersmith, Fulham, Ealing and Hounslow Mind)
TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
An increase in income and use of restricted reserves carried forward, has reflected in an increase in expenditure from £3.2m in 2021/22 to £4.3m in 2022/23 or by 37%. Control over our central support costs has been maintained, decreasing from £683k in 2021/22 to £662k in 2022/23. Central support costs as a proportion of income fell from 17% in 2021/22 to 14% in 2022/23.
Reserves
HFEH Mind continues to maintain a healthy reserve position.
In the year unrestricted funds increased by £166k, from an opening position of £709k, closing at £875k as at 31[st] March 2023. The movement includes a defined benefit pension scheme surplus of £10.6k (£95.6k surplus in 2021/22). The increase in part can be explained by the opening of the Circle £118k of funded leasehold improvements capitalised as a fixed asset for which designated reserves have been set aside for this purpose. Designated reserves that forms part of the unrestricted reserves increased from £141k to £252k.
The opening of the Circle also helped apply the restricted funding carried forward into 2022/23. In the year restricted reserves fell from £1,092k as at 31[st] March 2022 to £951k as at 31[st] March 2023. Challenges remain in the recruitment of qualified clinical staff to the MHST Youth Services Programme.
Balance Sheet
A reduction in the advance funding of projects towards the year end saw debtors fall to £766k as at 31[st] March 2023 compared to £1,113k the year before. Likewise, in applying the advanced funding creditors in the form of deferred income reduced the creditors balance from £527k as at 31[st] March 2022 to £339k as at 31[st] March 2023. The cash balances held remained relatively consistent year on year (£1,217k in 2023, £1,184 in 2022).
Hammersmith and Fulham Mind participates in a defined benefit pension scheme administered by The Pensions Trust. This year, the liability has reduced by £10k, and the Pension Fund Provision has been adjusted down to £10k. The service deficit payment plan issued by the Pensions Trust involves payment over a ten-year period at an average of £25k p.a., which the trustees are confident that cashflows will be able to meet.
The Trustees note this liability analysed further in note 16 to the financial statements. The Trustees are aware that the deficit on the scheme will fluctuate with changing market conditions and that their responsibility is to meet the required contribution rates, which are built into the annual budgetary processes of the Charity. The cashflow projections are annually calculated to reflect these continuing service deficit

HAMMERSMITH AND FULHAM ASSOCIATION FOR MENTAL HEALTH (Known as Hammersmith, Fulham, Ealing and Hounslow Mind)
TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
repayments. The Trustees do not consider this deficit to represent an immediate demand on the Charity's funds and do not, therefore, consider that there are any resultant limitations on resources available for general application or on the application of any restricted income funds. The restricted income funds have limitations that mean that they cannot be used to contribute towards any additional resource requirements of the Charity's unrestricted funds arising from the pension scheme deficit. We will continue to review and rigorously monitor our pension fund liabilities.
Reserves Policy
Under the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice on Accounting and Reporting by Charities, Hammersmith and Fulham Association for Mental Health segregates its funds into those which are restricted and those which are unrestricted. A further description of these funds and how they are further segregated to include the General Reserve is included within Note 17 to the accounts. Total funds for the Charity as of 31 March 2023 were £1,819k, split between restricted reserves of £951k and unrestricted reserves of £868K (as at 31 March 2022 total reserves were £1,801k, £1,092k restricted, £709k unrestricted).
In line with current best practice, the Trustees have, in reviewing Hammersmith and Fulham Association for Mental Health's Reserves Policy, considered the financial impact of those risks identified as part of the ongoing risk management process. The Board of Trustees has agreed that the Association, in addition to any restricted or designated reserves and commitments to, and investment in, tangible fixed assets, should have unrestricted general fund reserves equal to three months of operating costs. This equates to some £775k. Given the variety of funding streams, the Trustees have determined that this would be sufficient to enable the Association to manage any likely eventuality. General reserves of £637k (Unrestricted funds of £868k less designated reserves of £252k adding back the pension reserves of £21k) is below the 3 months operating expenditure required by Trustees. Over the coming year the Trustees will look to align general reserves to within 3 month operating expenditure.
The Charity has not made any fundraising appeals to the general public during the year, and as a result there has been no outsourced fundraising via professional fundraisers or other third parties. Consequently, the charity is not registered with the fundraising regulator but will look to register in 2023/24. The charity has not received any fundraising complaints in the year.
Plans for future periods

-
Work with neighbouring Local Minds in the new Northwest London region to align ourselves with the new Strategic Transformation Partnership (STP) commissioned in 2020.
-
To operate collaboratively within the new formed Mind in London organisation to create multi borough responses on mental health services
Risk Management and Key Policies
The Board of Trustees have overall responsibility for risk management and Trustees review the analysis, assessment and management of risks on a quarterly basis. To assist in the close monitoring of risk the remit of the Clinical Subcommittee has been expanded to include the systematic review of risk, alongside considerations of strategic direction. Major risks to which the charity is exposed have been reviewed and actions taken in mitigation. The major risks identified include:

TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
-
1) Managing Growth – Rapid growth, comes with the challenge of mobilising resource to address the demand for our services. This is acutely felt in the recruitment of specialist clinical staff that play a critical role in the delivery of our Youth Services MHST programme. Despite these challenges time is being spent on consolidating on this increased capacity to deliver meaningful interventions.
-
2) COVID Crisis, Cost of Living and Health Inequalities – The pandemic has had a profound impact on the communities we serve not only in the volume of cases but also in the complexity of the cases. The provision of Safe Spaces reflects our response to these changes in operating environment, towards meeting face to face outside normal office hours. Nevertheless, we continue to have our on-line presence providing on-line training sessions and development of the TV channel. Our risk management strategies are being continually assessed to reflect the needs of our beneficiaries.
-
3) Safeguarding – An impact of the pandemic has been that the numbers of safeguarding incidents we are required to report have risen significantly, overwhelming our staff and our capacity to serve. Through the employment of specialists staff in this field has substantially improved our capacity alongside greater attention being given to how such instances are recorded and how soon cases are closed- is improving our coping mechanisms. Progress is being continually assessed to enhancing our systems and approaches to this difficult issue.

Independent auditor’s report
to the members of
HAMMERSMITH AND FULHAM ASSOCIATION FOR MENTAL HEALTH
(Known as Hammersmith, Fulham, Ealing and Hounslow Mind)
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Hammersmith, Fulham, Ealing and Hounslow Mind (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 March 2023 which comprise the statement of financial activities, balance sheet, statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
-
In our opinion, the financial statements:
-
Give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company’s affairs as at 31 March 2023 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure for the year then ended
-
Have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice
-
Have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on Hammersmith, Fulham, Ealing and Hounslow Mind's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other Information
The other information comprises the information included in the trustees’ annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements

themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
-
The information given in the trustees’ annual report, for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
The trustees’ annual report, has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees’ annual report We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
Adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
The financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
Certain disclosures of trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
We have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
-
The directors were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies’ exemptions in preparing the trustees’ annual report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the statement of trustees’ responsibilities set out in the trustees’ annual report, 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 that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s 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 material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance 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 aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Independent auditor’s report
to the members of
HAMMERSMITH AND FULHAM ASSOCIATION FOR MENTAL HEALTH
(Known as Hammersmith, Fulham, Ealing and Hounslow Mind)
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect 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.
Capability of the audit in detecting irregularities
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:
-
Identifying, evaluating, and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance;
-
Detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected, or alleged fraud;
-
The internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations.
-
We inspected the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.
-
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the charity operates in, focusing on those laws and regulations that had a material effect on the financial statements or that had a fundamental effect on the operations of the charity from our professional and sector experience.
-
We communicated applicable laws and regulations throughout the audit team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit.
-
We reviewed any reports made to regulators.
-
We reviewed the financial statement disclosures and tested these to supporting documentation 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 tested significant transactions that are unusual or those outside the normal course of business.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities . This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 31 March 2023
1 Accounting policies
a) Statement of Compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note.
b) General Information:
The charity is a private company limited by guarantee, incorporated in England and Wales (company number: 02257523) and a charity registered in England and Wales (charity number: 801259). The charity's registered office is 309 Lillie Road, London, SW6 7LL.
c) Public benefit entity
The charitable company meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
d) Going concern
The trustees have assessed that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern.
e) Key judgments and uncertainties
Apart from the provision for the pension scheme liability as noted in the Trustees' Report, the trustees do not consider that there are any other sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.
f) Income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the charity that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.
Income received in advance of the provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition
g) Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.
h) Fund accounting
Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund.
Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for the charitable purposes.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular purposes.

Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 31 March 2023
- 1 Accounting policies (continued)
i) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT
-
Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of directly delivering the charitable activities.
-
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
j) Allocation of support costs
Resources expended are allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly to that activity. However, the support cost of overall direction and administration of each activity, comprising the salary and overhead costs of the central function, is apportioned on the basis of staff time attributable to each activity.
k) Operating leases
Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.
l) Tangible fixed assets
Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £750. Depreciation costs are allocated to central costs. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use.
The assets are depreciated at the following rates:
- Leasehold Improvements
5 years
-
Fixtures and Fittings 5 years
-
Computer Equipment 3 Years
m) Financial Investments:
Basic financial intrustments are transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities. The trade and other accounts receivables and payables are accounted for on the following basis:
n) Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
o) Cash at bank and in hand
- Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term savings accounts. Cash balances exclude any funds held on behalf of service users.
p) Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
q) Employee Benefits: Pensions
Hammersmith, Fulham, Ealing and Hounslow Mind ran a Defined Benefit Scheme administered by The Pensions Trust. The Pensions Trust ran a multiple scheme for small organisations involved in social, educational, charitable, voluntary or similar work. The financial position and the income and expenditure of The Pensions Trust are disclosed in its annual financial statements. A shortfall has occurred on this scheme and each participating company in the scheme is required to make good their share of the shortfall. The liability is reduced when payments are made to The Pension Trust. In October 2015, an Auto-Enrolment Workplace Pension Scheme was set up for all employees on a Defined Contribution basis.
r) Short Term benefits
Short term benefits including holiday pay are recognised in the period in which the service is received.

21. Pension schemes
SCHEME: TPT Retirement Solutions – The Growth Plan
The company participates in the scheme, a multi-employer scheme which provides benefits to some 950 non-associated participating employers. The scheme is a defined benefit scheme in the UK. It is not possible for the company to obtain sufficient information to enable it to account for the scheme as a defined benefit scheme. Therefore it accounts for the scheme as a defined contribution scheme.
The scheme is subject to the funding legislation outlined in the Pensions Act 2004 which came into force on 30 December 2005. This, together with documents issued by the Pensions Regulator and Technical Actuarial Standards issued by the Financial Reporting Council, set out the framework for funding defined benefit occupational pension schemes in the UK.
The scheme is classified as a 'last-man standing arrangement'. Therefore the company is potentially liable for other participating employers' obligations if those employers are unable to meet their share of the scheme deficit following withdrawal from the scheme. Participating employers are legally required to meet their share of the scheme deficit on an annuity purchase basis on withdrawal from the scheme.
A full actuarial valuation for the scheme was carried out at 30 September 2020. This valuation showed assets of £800.3m, liabilities of £831.9m and a deficit of £31.6m. To eliminate this funding shortfall, the Trustee has asked the participating employers to pay additional contributions to the scheme as follows:
Deficit contributions
| From 1 April 2019 to 30 September 2025: | £3,312,000 per annum |
(payable monthly and increasing by 3% each year on 1st April) |
||
|---|---|---|---|---|
Unless a concession has been agreed with the Trustee the term to 31 January 2025 applies.
Note that the scheme’s previous valuation was carried out with an effective date of 30 September 2014. This valuation showed assets of £793.4m, liabilities of £969.9m and a deficit of £176.5m. To eliminate this funding shortfall, the Trustee has asked the participating employers to pay additional contributions to the scheme as follows:
Deficit contributions
£11,243,000 per annum (payable monthly and increasing From 1 April 2019 to 30 September 2025: by 3% each on 1st April)
The recovery plan contributions are allocated to each participating employer in line with their estimated share of the Series 1 and Series 2 scheme liabilities.
Where the scheme is in deficit and where the company has agreed to a deficit funding arrangement the company recognises a liability for this obligation. The amount recognised is the net present value of the deficit reduction contributions payable under the agreement that relates to the deficit. The present value is calculated using the discount rate detailed in these disclosures. The unwinding of the discount rate is recognised as a finance cost.
