## **Prema Report of the Council of Management For the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

The company is established as a company limited by guarantee and is registered with the Charity Commission. The affairs of the company are governed by its memorandum and articles of association. The liability of the members in the event of the company being wound up is limited to a sum not exceeding £1.00. 

## _**General**_ 

The former “Prema Project” existed to oversee the assets of the Prema Trust (shares and investments and their building, Bethseda Chapel, which is used by Prema for its business).  During the Financial year 1996/7 the Prema Project took the decision to 'wind up' and to sign over all of its assets to Prema, thus making both the Chapel and the monies invested, the property of the trading company. At the AGM in November 1997, it was agreed the shares now owned by the company should be cashed in and the money be invested in the existing COIF account.  This "nest egg" was then invested in the fabric of Bethesda Chapel as part of a major refurbishment programme in FY 2015/16. 

Prema is overseen by a Council of Management - independent people who either have a specialist working knowledge in the area of Prema's trade, or those who have significant links/understanding of local politics and how Prema might be best positioned to enjoy a healthy, continued funding relationship with existing investors. The members receive no remuneration for their time investment in Prema - the Council does not take expenses, it relies solely on goodwill and belief in the mission of the organisation. 

## _**Recruitment and appointment of new members of the Council of Management**_ 

The Council of Management holds its AGM each Autumn. New members to the committee are actively recruited (via the existing board and/or staff).  The Council of Management seeks to bring individuals onto the board who have a specialist knowledge or experience which would lend itself well to Prema's operation and plans for future development. 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

Prema exists to allow the community to interface with quality arts activities through a programme of creative opportunities and cultural expression. The programme embraces an ambitious education programme of workshops, weekly classes and seminars as well as an impressive outreach programme which offers dynamic arts opportunities to schools and community & health organisations within Gloucestershire's administrative boundaries (and farther afield too). 

In addition to its prominent education programme, Prema is a Centre of Excellence for contemporary and emerging artforms. Arts Council England - South West (Prema's largest single investor) has included this organisation in its portfolio of funded organisation (NPO – National Portfolio Organisation) in recognition of Prema’s strategic developmental role for emerging artists and arts practices. This role is delivered via a programme of Performance, Physical Theatre, New Dance and Installation based visual art and all the hybrids between established and emerging artforms.  ACE (SW) also maintains investment in Prema by way of supporting the full participatory and education programmes delivered by the Centre.

## **Prema Report of the Council of Management For the year ended 31 March 2021** 

Prema also receives grant funding from Stroud District Council, currently £5,000 per annum. It should be noted that the current investment is less than one third of the Council's investment in the mid 1990s. This action was taken due to the compulsion for all local authorities to dramatically reduce their investments and costs in the light of economic downturn and global recession. It is for this reason that Prema has sought to diversify its own earned income streams and to become less reliant on grant aid – however, the size of this organisation, its rural location and the ratio of quality vs. afforability means that Prema is (and will continue to be) unable to function without the investment from Arts Council England and other grant-making bodies. 

Prema's administrative base is Bethesda Chapel, South Street, Uley, Dursley GL11 5SS.  We promote a large number of events at the Centre itself, but we also have a growing demand to promote activities in other venues - often in partnership with other promoters.  Our schools outreach programme is very popular and we (in accordance with suggestion from SDC) have worked in partnership with other venues and community organisations to offer affordable, accessible, robust creative programmes for members of the community (in its broadest context) and to promote developmental, challenging projects and events which respond to the cultural palette of the locality, but also to show tomorrow's mainstream today. 

## **Achievements and Performance** 

## _**Developments, Activities and Achievements during the year**_ 

This was an unusual year for Prema with pandemic affecting the outputs and income of this charity.  It has been a period of great uncertainty and heart-break for Prema and its supporters however we have been immeasurably more fortunate than so many.  We have been fortunate to maintain the core funding from Arts Council England and also Stroud District Council as well as make good use of the Job Retention Scheme (furlough), meaning that the key elements of expenditure have been covered. Our ability to earn any significant income has been hampered by a year which has been plagued by lockdowns, outbursts of the virus, fear and apprehension from every member of the public in regards to their safety away from home.  But it has also brought about a sense of dread for the financial stability of everything and for everyone for the foreseeable future.  Prema is in a lucky position to have ongoing core investment until March 2023 from Arts Council England and has used the fallow periods of the pandemic to plan for the future and rationalise expenditure and staffing resources to afford this charity a greater sense of financial balance moving forward. 

## _**Going concern**_ 

As we experience trying financial times in the UK alongside an increasingly politicized culture, the certainty of continued core funds for Prema looks increasingly shaky. As reported above, Gloucestershire County Council have disinvested from all but their essential services and the stability of investments from Stroud District Council is somewhat fragile. The certainty of monies from Arts Council England matched with a reduction in staff working hours means that we can look forward to a future – one which is far from certain – but a future nonetheless.

## **Prema Report of the Council of Management For the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## _**Risk**_ 

As highlighted above, the future looks uncertain. This is not particular to Prema – every arts organisation in England, Wales and Scotland is experiencing similar financial problems due to the effects of the pandemic. Prema is a relatively admin-light organisation. Being small and independent, it means that Prema can quickly and effectively change or adapt to the funding climate. Its brand is strong, its programme even stronger and we believe that through careful planning and robust communication with our peer organizations and funders, that we may still look forward to a long and healthy future. 

## _**Fundraising**_ 

Prema has continued to work with other arts organisations in the county to boost fundraising capacity and skills so that we are able to build projects and initiatives as well as exploring a more sustainable seam of income. We fundraise through a variety of means - a permanent collection box on site, personalised letters sent to those who are frequent users of the arts centre and also developing relationships with 'high-worth individuals' who have an established reputation as benefactors for particular creative or community-based projects. 

Due to the covid lockdowns and prelonged closed periods donations have been minimal in the year to 31 March 2021. 

All donations that were received in the year have been included within unrestricted funds. 

## **Financial review** 

The financial statements are set out on pages 9 to 21. 

As shown in the Statement of Financial Activities schedule, there has been net income in the year of £24,060 (year ended 31 March 2019: total net expenditure of £18,929). 

The in-year surplus has arisen primarily due to ongoing grant funding continuing in the year from the Arts Council and Stroud District Council (see note 3) in period when expenditure has reduced significantly due to the covid shutdowns.  The in-year movement is therefore somewhat misleading. 

Furlough grant income from HMRC of £36,659 was also received in the year, to partially offset payroll costs in the shutdown periods.  This has been included in the accounts within "other income", see 

In addition Prema also received covid relief grants in the year totalling £25,000.  £15,000 was received from the Arts Council, of which the Council of Management consider £8,520 was spent in the year on specific expenses required to re-open following the covid shutdowns.  The balance of £6,480 has been carried forward at the year end.  £10,000 was received in the year from Stroud District Council and that income has been wholly deferred in this accounting year, to be expended when activity and trading resumes.  The total covid grant income carried forward at the year end of £16,480 has been included in the accounts as unrestricted deferred income, see note 17.

## **Prema Report of the Council of Management For the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## _**Reserves**_ 

All funds have positive fund balances at the year end, with cumulative charity funds totalling £551,352 

The Council of Management consider unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity are adequate, and will continue to monitor transactions with the aim of retaining sufficient reserves for the future by both investigating ways of increasing income and reducing costs. 

## _**Unrestricted funds**_ 

During the year ended 31 March 2021 there was net income of £27,967, compared to net expenditure 

Unrestricted funds held at 31 March 2021 totalled £100,093, increased from £72,126 held at the previous year end.  As mentioned above, this increase is somewhat misleading as ongoing grant funding received in the current year is in effect unspent in the year due to covid shutdowns.  The Council of Management consider this fund increase will be utilised in future years, once activities trading can hopefully return. 

## _**Restricted funds**_ 

Restricted funds comprise National Lottery funded assets, grant and donation funded building works and a piano bursary. 

There is net expenditure within restricted funds of £2,715 in the year, and £1,200 endowment funds, relating to the continued depreciation of the historic buildings cost. 

## _**Specific changes in fixed assets**_ 

Changes in fixed assets are shown in detail in the notes to the accounts.  There were minimal changes in fixed assets in the year. 

## _**Share capital**_ 

The company is limited by guarantee and therefore has no share capital. 

## _**Independent examiner**_ 

There has been no change of independent examiner during the year, which remains as Anita Buckley from Number Hut Limited.

**Report of the Council of Management For the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **Prema** 

## **Statement of Responsibilities of the Council of Management** 

The Charities Act and the Companies Act require the Council of Management to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the Board is required to :- 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. 

- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed , subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

The Council of Management are also responsible for maintaining adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies  Act 2006 and comply with regulations made under the Charities Act. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The Council of Management are also responsible for the contents of the their report, and the responsibility of the independent examiner in relation to the Council of Managements' report is limited to examining the report and ensuring that , on the face of the report, there are no inconsistencies with the figures disclosed in the financial statements. 

## **Method of preparation of accounts** 

The Council of Management 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 "(FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **Approval** 

This report and the annual accounts were discussed at a meeting of the Council of Management and were approved by the Council of Management on 8 November 2021.

## **Report of the Independent Examiner to the Council of Management on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 March 2021** 

I report on the financial statements of the Charity for the year ended 31 March 2021 which are set out on pages 9 to 21. 

## **Respective responsibilities of Council of Management and examiner** 

The charity's Council of Management (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s Council of Management consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Charities Act), and that an independent examination is needed. 

I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Chartered Association of Certified Accountants. 

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law, or otherwise, and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Charities Act, 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Charities Act, and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An independent 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 the Council of Management concerning any such matters. 

The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the next statement.

## **Prema Report of the Independent Examiner to the Council of Management on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **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 386 of the Companies Act 2006 and 

- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities 

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.

Approved by the Council of Management on 8 November 2021 and signed on its behalf by 

**Simon Opher Chair 17 December 2021** 

The notes on pages 11 to 21 form an integral part of these accounts.

**Notes to the Accounts** 

## **Prema** 

## **for the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## _**Basis of preparation of the accounts**_ 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charites preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities, the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. 

## _**Accounting convention**_ 

The financial statements are prepared,on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value, unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s). 

## _**Incoming Resources**_ 

Incoming resources are accounted for on a receivable basis. 

## _**Investment Income**_ 

Bank interest is included in the income and expenditure account on a receivable basis. 

## _**Grant Income**_ 

Revenue grants are credited to the income and expenditure account as receivable. 

Fixed assets acquired with grant assistance are stated at cost and depreciated over their useful economic lives.  The receipt of the grant is recorded as a restricted fund in the statement of financial activities. Depreciation charged on fixed assets purchased by grant money is shown as expenditure out of the restricted fund. 

## _**Recognition of liabilities**_ 

Liabilities are recognised on the accruals basis in accordance with normal accounting principles, modified where necessary in accordance with the guidance given in the SORP. 

## _**Resources Expended**_ 

All expenditure is included on an accruals basis and is recognised when there is a legal or constructive obligation to pay for expenditure.  Charitable expenditure includes both direct costs of the programmes and support costs relating to these activities.  Governance costs include those costs incurred in the goverance of the charity and its assets and are primarily those associated with constitutional and statutory requirements. Support costs include central functions and are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly relate to charitable activities. 

The allocation and apportionment of costs between charitable activities, governance and support costs is based on the use of each specific resource. 

## _**Fixed assets and depreciation**_ 

All tangible fixed assets are stated at historical cost less depreciation. 

Website development costs have been capitalised as a tangible fixed asset in accordance with FRS 15 and UITF abstract 29.  It is considered reasonably certain that the website will generate future economic benefit at least as great as the amount capitalised over its anticipated useful life of 5 years. 

11 



**Prema Notes to the Accounts** 

**for the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **1 Accounting policies, continued** 

Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets (less their estimated residual value) over their estimated useful economic lives. 

Freehold land - Buildings 2% straight line basis Fixtures and fittings 20% reducing balance basis Website 20% straight line basis 

## _**Stock**_ 

Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. 

## _**Debtors**_ 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid after taking account of any trade discounts due. 

## _**Creditors and provisions**_ 

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably.  Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## _**Taxation**_ 

As a registered charity, the company is exempt from income and corporation tax to the extent that its income and gains are applicable to charitable purposes only. Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the company, and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities. 

## _**Funds structure policy**_ 

The charity maintains a general unrestricted fund which represents funds which are expendable at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the objects of the charity. Such funds may be held in order to finance both working capital and capital investment. 

Restricted funds have been provided to the charity for particular purposes, and it is the policy of the board of trustees to carefully the monitor the application of those funds in accordance with the restrictions placed upon them. 

There is no formal policy of transfer between funds or on the allocation of funds to designated funds, other than that described above. 

## **2 Winding up or dissolution of the charity** 

If upon winding up or dissolution of the charity there remain any assets, after the satisfaction of all debts and liabilities, the assets represented by the accumulated fund shall be transferred to some other charitable body or bodies having similar objects to the charity.
