Report of the Trustees |
for the Year Ended 31 March 2023 |
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023. 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). |
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES |
Objectives and aims |
Our aim is to enable individuals with the diagnosis of Personality Disorder or Complex Trauma to determine their own pathways to achieving fulfilled lives free from the challenges associated with their diagnosis. |
Significant activities |
The Haven currently has 188 registered clients and contact with a few of our 16 clients carers. The Haven's resilience groups at the MIND crisis café, Tuesdays in Clacton and Thursdays in Colchester have seen significant increase in attendance as well as wellbeing outcomes. The Discharge Program had its first three participant patients start in February 2023. |
The Haven had a total of 5,352 contact with its registered clients. Of these 4,123 were crisis prevention calls, 779 were 1:1 therapeutic support f contacts (face-to-face or online), and 450 were recovery, social Zoom, and craft groups. There were 68 requests for registration at the Haven Project and 51 of these were registered. The difference was in the main "no show" or "no return" of our application form. |
At the Crisis Café resilience groups, run at the North and Mid Essex MIND Crisis Café, participation has steadily increased from just under 20 per month in April 2022 to 42 in March 2023. The wellbeing scores reported by participants range from 66% of maximum score to 85% of maximum. Comments include: |
"The session was amazing, and it was exactly what was needed. Made it clear to me what I need to do." |
"I would say it has been one of or the best mental health resource I've taken part in overall". |
The Crisis Café is being remodelled and the Haven is hopeful that, our wellbeing results speaking for themselves, we will be part of the second phase. |
The Discharge Program which is designed to help patients with Personality Disorder settle successfully in the community following hospitalisation, started with a small cohort of 3 in February 2023 after an unexpected delay. |
Public benefit |
The Haven benefits not only it's registered clients but also their families and wider community. The same is true for the work done at the Crisis Café. In particular, the Haven helps to reduce the stigma associated with the diagnosis of Personality Disorder and Trauma, and by developing the new platforms (Crisis Café and Discharge Program) this work will reach a wider section of the community. |
Future Plans |
The Haven has taken a very active part in the remodelling of the Crisis Café for the three years starting from September 2024.We are hopeful that our work will speak for itself whilst at the same time we are nurturing our relation with our partner MIND. We are also actively seeking grant finding and accelerating the Discharge Program. |
Funding |
We are seeking to extend the Crisis Café income, augment the Discharge Program and seeking grant funding - including possible a modest reconsideration from the Big Lottery. |

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of |
The Haven Project |
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Haven Project ('the Company') |
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2023. |
Responsibilities and basis of report |
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). |
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. |
Independent examiner's statement |
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: |

2. | the accounts do not accord with those records; or |
3. | the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or |
4. | the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). |
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. |
