Audit & accounting basis
From AI-extracted PDF accounts
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Price Bailey LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“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 the charitable company'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.”
Significant events
- “The Foundation recorded a deficit of £0.7m in 2025, compared to £1.4m the previous year, as planned, continuing its specific objective of achieving financial stability.”
- “The Foundation's income decreased 11% in 2025, mainly due to its subsidiary, Mental Health at Work CIC, ceasing trading, resulting in a £0.6m reduction in charitable trading income.”
- “Legacy income for 2025 was £1.5m, a strong contribution but £0.4m less than the exceptional figures from 2024.”
- “Growth in fundraising events offset the income decline, raising £0.9m in 2025 due to successful new events.”
- “Donations from individual and corporate donors increased by 9% in 2025 due to successful fundraising efforts that secured new corporate partnerships.”
- “The Foundation's expenditure decreased by 17% in 2025, partly due to the absence of Mental Health at Work CIC.”
- “Mental Health Programmes expenditure decreased from £4.1m in 2024 to £3.4m in 2025, largely due to the ending of several programmes.”
- “The 32-hour work week pilot was approved for implementation by the board in 2025, based on positive findings.”
- “A comprehensive brand refresh project was completed, with the Foundation's website re-launched in September 2024.”
- “The 'See Me' anti-stigma programme's impact report was completed and shared with the Scottish Government, with an independent review underway to be reported in July 2025.”
- “The 18th Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival ran from 10-27 October 2024, featuring over 240 events across 20 local authority areas.”
- “The 'Creating Connections' suicide prevention initiative was delivered between April 2024 and March 2025, providing 1,073 peer support interventions.”
- “The 'Trauma Awareness Training in Sports Settings' project, funded by Simply Health, ran from April 2024 to March 2025, training nearly 600 staff.”
