    HEARTS AND MINDS 

    Hearts and Minds is a youth-led mental health charity providing group and one-to-one peer support for young people aged 14-25 experiencing mental health difficulties.
    Analysis by Giving is Great

    Positives:

    • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers

    Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

    • Over half the Board have joined recently

    Financial issues to consider:

    • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
    • Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 3 years and the current period appears to have been extended
    • Income has been volatile recently and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
