Healing for the Heart (SCIO)
Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 October 2025
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 October 2025. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities
Counselling and Psychotherapy
2024/25 proved to be a year of significant change for our community counselling service. In the final quarter of 2023/24, the Board and Senior Management Team (SMT) agreed a restructure for the counselling service, set to begin in January 2025. The aim of the restructure was to bring the cost of our service delivery down, but maintain the skills, experience and quality within our service to sustainably and adequately support clients, volunteers and staff.
By removing sessional work and redeploy our salaried counsellors in Clinical Development Worker roles, we have:
-
developed more capacity to support trainees and volunteers. This in turn has increased the percentage of hours delivered by trainees and volunteers (59% of sessions).
-
created a bigger clinical team supporting the newly created Clinical Manager post in holding clinical risk as well as bolstering the support structure for all our counsellors.
-
boosted the capacity of our fast-track service, Kairos Counselling and Psychotherapy (KCP) with most sessional counsellors now operating as KCP counsellors.
For reference, KCP is a fixed £60 fee route to counselling with one of our qualified counsellors and offers greater flexibility to clients in terms of frequency and number of sessions. Half of the fee goes to Healing for the Heart meaning KCP helps to fund the community counselling service.
It should be noted that the decision to make these changes was not made lightly. For several staff members the new structure has meant taking a financial hit in challenging economic times. Nevertheless. the team have shown great resiliency and have worked hard to make the new structure work. Clients continue to come through our doors and leave having made choices which positively impact their lives.
Through the community counselling service, we have supported 267 people, a reduction from the previous year due to the staff changes outlined above, but we have seen more referrals come through KCP. We are therefore proud to say that our community service waiting list has remained stable with no client having to wait more than a than 3 months before starting sessions.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable Activities
Community Development
2024/25 has been an exciting year for the Community Development Department, seeing the team grow from two to four members, increasing the team's skillset, experience and expertise.
The aim of Community Development at Healing for the Heart:
To identify community needs across Glasgow and create, develop, and deliver projects that improve mental health and wellbeing, while strengthening supportive community networks that foster connection and resilience.
What we do:
Psychoeducational Community Group Work
We deliver group-based learning sessions that help community members build knowledge, skills, and confidence about mental health. Some of these groups happen weekly on a rolling basis, creating a stable presence in a community, building trust and connections. Other groups are offered as one-off sessions or set blocks to work with a specific community and address a specific need.
Training
We provide targeted training for community members and partners, including:
-
Community Resilience Model (CRM)
-
Addiction awareness and recovery
-
Reflective practice
-
Connection and relationship-building skills
Who we reach:
We support people across Glasgow, with a particular focus on communities most affected by socio-economic disadvantage and social inequality. We partner with schools, community centres, and organisations to reach:
-
People in recovery
-
Children and families who benefit from community groups and local support networks
-
Grassroot community groups
-
Asylum seekers and refugee communities
Our work is project-based and responsive, allowing us to build creative partnerships and connect with communities who face the greatest barriers to wellbeing.
Across all our Community Development projects:
-
81% of participants said their awareness about mental health has increased
-
78% of participants said their self-esteem has increased
-
73% of participants said their confidence has improved
-
68% of participants appreciated how we provided a safe and friendly space
-
63% of participants said their feelings of isolation has decreased
Premises
Following the move to the Europa Building on Argyle Street in July 2024, we have made the space our own and transformed it into a peaceful, trauma informed and person-centred space to meet clients and staff where they are at. Throughout the year, we have sought to expand group sessions, training and other events on site, to capitalise on the location's excellent accessibility.
Staffing
As outlined above, 2024/25 proved a period of significant change for all departments within the organisation. Alongside the restructure of the counselling service and its clinical staff team, as well as the growth of the Community Development Department, we also wished a happy retirement to our founder and CEO Shona Stirling. Following a stint as interim CEO, Stefan Meens took on the permanent position as CEO from June 2025.
The Board of Trustees and the entire staff team wish to extend their gratitude to Shona for all her energy and commitment. She has worked tirelessly to sustain the organisation from its inception, through the challenges posed by the Covid pandemic, up until the move into the Europa Building.

Volunteer support
Volunteers are an invaluable part of what we do at Healing for the Heart. Almost 60% of our community counselling sessions are provided by volunteers. In addition, volunteers form a crucial part of making our work in the community happen. Throughout 2025, we have evaluated and updated our volunteer support structures and procedures to reflect how much we value our volunteers.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
For the year ended 31 October 2025, the charity generated a surplus of £101,813 (2024: £1,765). At 31 October 2025, total reserves stood at £323,569 (2024: £221,756) of which £105,843 (2024: £85,114) were unrestricted, free reserves and £152,334 (2024: £71,250) were restricted.
The charity also holds a separate designated clinical continuation fund of £65,392 (2024: £65,392). Given the nature of our work, should there be a sudden termination of funding this sets aside six months of clinical costs while other funds are sought.
Reserves policy
Our reserves target remains static at £108,000 in order to preserve the ability to wind down the clinical service over 6 months.
2020 - £60,000 reserves 2021 - £108,000 reserves 2022 - £108,000 reserves 2023 - £108,000 reserves 2024 - £108,000 reserves 2025 - £108,000 reserves
The current unrestricted reserves, excluding designated reserves, of £105,843 is slightly below this target. The trustees are aware that their reserves policy is not currently being met and are working towards increasing the unrestricted reserves of the charity.
FUTURE PLANS
Following the substantial changes implemented in 2024/25, we will look to reshape the medium- and longer-term strategy that connects the mission, the staff team, and the charity’s future direction to ensure stability and sustainability for years to come, despite the many (financial) challenges that the Scottish Third Sector faces.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
As Healing for the Heart is a SCIO, the official governing document we operate under is our constitution.
Our senior management team, comprising of the CEO, Clinical Director and Operations Manager, meet regularly to manage operations and work with the board to develop vision and strategy.
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
Our Board of Trustees meet quarterly and hold, not only the DNA of the organisation but the oversight of all that is happening. With the current increased demand for services and the cost of living crisis hitting not only individuals but also organisations, they have the interests of both staff and service users to consider. It's become clear that, for the size the organisation has grown to, our board are small in number. A recent skills audit indicates areas where there are gaps. A recruitment and interview process is currently underway to help us to expand both skills and networks.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Key management remuneration
In the opinion of the Trustees, the Key Management of the charity comprises Chief Executive. Total employer costs relating to these posts for the year ended 31 October 2025 were £55,821 (2024: £28,303). The CEO took a three month sabbatical with an interim CEO taking their place. Upon their return, they decided to leave the organisation and gradually reduced their hours. The board opted to keep the interim CEO in post alongside the other CEO which is why there is an increase in the key management remuneration.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Healing for the Heart (SCIO)
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 October 2025 set out on pages seven to eighteen.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). The charity's trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1)(a) to (c) of the Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under Section 44(1)(c) of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of the independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention :
-
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 44(1)(a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with Regulation 8 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations
have not been met; or
- (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
