TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
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 (HFEH Mind) for the year ended 31 March 2025. 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. One in four people will experience a mental health problem of some kind each year in England. Yet only in one in three adults with a common mental health problem are currently getting support. The amount of people with common mental health problems rose 20% between 1993 and 2024 while the number of young people reporting mental health conditions has also risen. Fifty-two percent of 17–23-year-olds have experienced a deterioration in mental health in the last five years. Meanwhile in the workplace, poor mental health accounts for 51% of long-term sick leave due to reasons such as stress, depression or anxiety, while burnout, mental ill-health and work-related stress are now costing the economy £28 billion annually.
Within our boroughs—we have identified the following needs:
-
Hammersmith & Fulham : The suicide rate surpasses both the London and national averages, compounded by elevated rates of drug misuse, social isolation, crime, and unemployment.
-
Ealing: Ealing has a significantly higher proportion of individuals on GP registers with psychosis than the national average and a notably higher rate of sectioning compared to London and England as a whole. The 2023 Ealing JSNA reports over 20,000 residents with diagnosed mental health conditions.
-
Hounslow : Hounslow’s suicide rate is above the London average, and levels of anxiety, low happiness, low satisfaction, and low self-worth exceed both London and national averages.
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:

Achievements and Performance
Message from Roger Clark Interim Chief Executive
Arti Modhwadia delivered her first year as CEO of Hammersmith, Fulham, Ealing Hounslow Mind until February 2025. I have had the honour of leading the organisation since. We have continued with an intense focus on delivering quality mental health services for the residents of our three boroughs.
Our strategy continues to drive our approach, concentrating on our key strategic pillars: sustainability and growth, partnership, and accessibility. At the same time, we have continued to strengthen our cross-cutting themes of communication, innovation, quality, and resilience.
Our income has been sustained at previous year’s level as we have continued to deliver our range of diverse

services. These services include: mental health support teams in schools; safe space centres for adults experiencing a mental health crisis; The Circle for young people in crisis; a gardening project for children and young people, a music project that supports young people and promotes mental health, a men's mental health project to address service accessibility, social prescribing for individuals with mental health issues, and an advice service across the three-boroughs to support service users during the cost-of-living crisis.
This year we have reached over 32,000 people, when including those who utilise our directories and mental health TV channel.
Our Senior team have delivered consistent quality despite the changes in leadership. Our objectives are clear: to increase the number of people we reach through our services by making our services accessible; to reduce health inequalities and disparities; to ensure that everyone in our boroughs who needs mental health support receives it; to expand services tailored to meet the needs of our local population, with service users co-designing and co-producing these services. A further strategic objective is to diversify our income sources, reducing reliance on statutory funding and generating more unrestricted funding through innovation.
We believe this continuing strategic approach for the next year will create a resilient organisation, committed to ensuring that mental health support is available, accessible, relevant and impactful for our community.
Adult Services
This year, between April 24 to March 25 our adult services continued to flourish, providing around 21 diverse support services for individuals aged 18-25 as well as for adults over 25. We delivered over 29,000 interventions to more than 9,000 individuals.
Key Achievements:
-
Crisis Support:
-
We significantly reduced crisis levels within one day for 56% of all service users.
-
86% of our service users avoided using A&E, saving an average of £200 per visit for the NHS.
2. Advocacy:
-
We supported individuals sectioned under the Mental Health Act 1983 and those in the community needing access to mental health treatment.
-
96% of service users felt heard and listened to.
-
89% understood their rights better.
-
82% felt more included in decisions impacting them when an advocate was involved.
-
Information and Advice Services:

-
Achieved over £580k in additional income for those entitled to support and grants.
-
87% achieved their expected outcome.

For the people we helped 98% recorded improved quality of life, 93% had decreased levels of anxiety and 91% had decreased levels of depression.
Recognising a significant gap in perinatal support, our project for non-birthing partners has effectively addressed this need.

TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
-
Improved Outreach: Our advice services are oversubscribed, while other services have capacity.
-
Enhanced marketing and fundraising will be crucial to reach more people, especially those who may not regularly access mental health services.
-
Physical Health Checks: We aim to improve outcomes for our physical health check service, as currently
-
only 43% of service users complete all five checks.
-
By focusing on these areas, we hope to enhance the impact of our services and reach a broader audience.
Children and Young People’s Services
The Children and Young People’s Team at HFEH Mind have had a year of change and development. Consolidating the opening of the Circle has involved recruiting a new team with a broad range of skills and experience; focusing on representing the local community. Numbers of children and young people and families accessing the Circle has increased month on month, as we continue to build key partnerships across our boroughs.
We are delighted to have been successful in winning a Big Lottery Fund application to commence in 2025/26 allowing us to recruit a team of community workers and a parenting co-ordinator who work across our area to provide mental health support and anti-stigma work to communities who do not typically access traditional mental health support.
We continue to use other tools to increase access to services – our John Lyons Funded Mind on Music work delivers music/songwriting-based routes to improved emotional wellbeing in 3 schools. Be Kind to Your Mind funding allows us to offer bespoke and creative approaches to supporting the mental health of children and young people with learning disabilities or with neurodiverse conditions.
In January 2025, our MHST (Mental Health Support Team who provide mental health support in schools) doubled in size following a successful bid. Still working across the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, Wave 12 allowed us to recruit 9 trainees who are employees also studying at UCL for post-graduate diplomas in children and young people’s school based mental health. The Whole School Approach offer within the MHST has developed and delivered a wide range of training for school staff, parents and pupils, and this continues to be a key part of this work.
We provided direct support services to over 7,000 children and young people in the London Boroughs of Hammersmith and Fulham, Ealing and Hounslow in this financial year.
Looking Forwards
We continue to look at ways we can support children and young people who are not attending school because of exclusion, emotionally based school avoidance or ‘missing’ and are working closely with the local authorities to develop ways of working that allow us to provide a more flexible offer, addressing the needs of these families.
We are delivering a full programme of support within the Holiday and Food (HAF) offer as part of our MHST, and the team will be offering mental health support via physical activity and music programmes.
We are working to grow our team of young advisors and are working with our colleagues in adult services to develop this for the transition ages of 18-25. Our co-production co-ordinator in Children and Young People’s Services is also aiming to have a small group of young advisors who are under 11 years old, and to increase diversity within our young advisor group by working closely with minority communities particularly black boys, who are under-represented in our services.
Other
All of us at HFEH Mind reaffirmed our commitment to the mission statement this year.
We provide advice and support to empower anyone experiencing a mental health problem. We campaign to improve services, raise awareness and promote understanding. We are committed to combating stigma, empowering local residents, promoting wellbeing and supporting recovery.

TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Income
The organisation has consolidated its financial position following a period of significant growth achieving income in excess of £4m for the past 4 years.
In 2024/25 HFEH Mind recorded income of £4.82m, a 3% decrease on 2023/24 of £4.98m explained by two changes which broadly netted off:
-
Continued expansion in our adult services provision, from £2.12m in 2023/24 to £2.56m in 2024/25, achieved through the provision new services, maintaining and building on our current offer specifically the provision of Safe Spaces in each of the three Boroughs and within Accident and Emergency departments.
-
At the beginning of 2024/25 the West London Mental Health Service Teams (MHST) contract was transferred to another neighbouring local Mind organisation explaining the reduction in Youth Services income from £2.76m in 2023/24 to £2.13m in 2024/25. Once the transfer of the contract is removed Youth Service increased its income by 28% from £1.67m in 2023/24 to £2.13m in 2024/25
Training and consultancy income performed strongly from £53k in 2023/24 to £89k in 2024/25 following National Mind devolving its training provision to local Mind organisations.
Expenditure
Expenditure has decreased following an unusually high spend in 2023/24 from the utilisation of restricted reserves carried over from 2022/23. In 2024/25 expenditure has kept in line with the level of funding.

HAMMERSMITH AND FULHAM ASSOCIATION FOR MENTAL HEALTH (Known as Hammersmith, Fulham, Ealing and Hounslow Mind)
TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Expenditure has decreased from £5.53m in 2023/24 to £4.64m in 2024/25 or by 16%. Likewise, Central support costs have fallen from £834k in 2023/24 to £747k in 2024/25.
Reserves
With a consolidated growth position HFEH Mind has continued to deliver a modest increase in its unrestricted reserves.
In the year unrestricted funds increased by £100k, from an opening position of £1,004k, closing at £1,104k as at 31 March 2025. The results in the year include a payment of £70k to withdraw from the defined benefit pension scheme following the exit of the last remaining active member in 2024. This settles, any remaining liability from the scheme, subject to a small potential additional payment which is dependent on the outcome of an ongoing scheme wide legal matter. Designated reserves forms part of the unrestricted reserves decreased from £165k to £139k providing for the net book value of the fixed assets releasing £26k to general reserves.
Over the last year restricted reserves have increase from £273k in 2023/24 to £350k in 2024/25. In the year efforts have continued to expend restricted reserves resulting from MHST Youth Services Programme with a reduction of £141k from £273k opening balance closing at £132k. These efforts have been offset by an increase of £218k from the carry forward of funds from other restricted projects.
Balance Sheet
Year on year balance sheet movements have been as follows:
Debtors reduced by 42% from £710k to £415k
-
This helped increase our cash position increasing by 14% from £1,059k to £1,213k.
-
Creditors decreased by 54% from £658k to £306k and is attributed to deferred income with the
-
advance funding of projects (£427k in 2023/24 to £117k in 2024/25)
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 18 to the accounts.
Total funds for the Charity as of 31 March 2025 were £1,454k, split between restricted reserves of £350k and unrestricted reserves of £1,104K (as at 31 March 2024 total reserves were £1,276k, £273k restricted, £1,004k unrestricted).

HAMMERSMITH AND FULHAM ASSOCIATION FOR MENTAL HEALTH
(Known as Hammersmith, Fulham, Ealing and Hounslow Mind)
TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
In line with current best practice, the Trustees have reviewed HFEH Mind Reserves Policy, considered the financial impact of those risks identified as part of the on-going 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 with the flexibility to vary by 10% from this figure. Three months of operating costs equates to some £915k.
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 £965k (Unrestricted funds of £1,104k less designated reserves of £139k) is above the 3 months operating expenditure required by Trustees by £50k.
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. The charity has not received any fundraising complaints in the year.
Plans for future periods
Our future plans include:
Addressing the cost-of-living crisis and rising health inequalities.
Ensuring we work with the police and statutory sector to reduce the impact of right care right person.
-
Responding to emerging community needs identified through coproduction, ensuring our services meet local demands.
-
Expanding our reach by making our services more accessible and diversifying our offerings to ensure everyone in our boroughs who needs mental health support receives it.
-
Increasing partnerships with local organisations, including corporates, local businesses, third-sector organisations, and the statutory sector.
-
Strengthening our position within the Shifting Settings of Care to ensure effective collaboration with GPs and primary services as commissioning and care continue to evolve.
-
Diversifying our funding streams to reduce reliance on statutory funding and generate more unrestricted funding. Collaborating with neighbouring Local Minds in the new Northwest London region to align with the Strategic Transformation Partnership (STP).
Working collaboratively within the newly formed Mind in London organisation to create multi-borough responses for mental health services.
Risk Management and Key Risks
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 and Safeguarding 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:
-
1) Changing landscape with the closure of NHS England and changes within the NHS London and the Integrated Care Boards could mean loss of funding for services. Changes in health provision could mean a significant shift in the contract finances of the organisation and an increased need to transition to increase unrestricted and community funding.
-
2) Continued diversification of our income streams- the organisation is heavily reliant on statutory funding, and we find ourselves in a position where all high value contracts will come to an end at the same time. To mitigate the risk, we have developed a robust income generation and fundraising strategy. Both our head of income generation and head of marketing and communications have high income generation targets for funding in subsequent years, with a view to increase our unrestricted income.
-
3) Increased complexity and impact on staff- though as a third sector organisation our place sits well in prevention and working with those who have low to moderate needs. However, we are seeing more clients with a complex presentation requiring a clinical intervention. To mitigate the risk, we have increased our training offer to staff alongside lunch and learns, lessons learned and workshops. We have a robust set of operational policies and managers with expertise who provide support for staff. This has helped staff manage the initial presentation and then effectively signpost.

- 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

HAMMERSMITH AND FULHAM ASSOCIATION FOR MENTAL HEALTH (Known as Hammersmith, Fulham, Ealing and Hounslow Mind)
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.
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 noncompliance 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.

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
The trustees do not consider that there are any 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 are met.
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.
