Chairs Statement
The 2024/25 financial year was one of significant change and consolidation for DaDa. Our priority was to stabilise the organisation's leadership and position DaDa for a strong future. During the year, we saw a transition in senior roles, with Ngozi Ugochukwu leaving the organisation, Rachel Rogers continuing as Executive Producer, and Zoe Partington joining as Permanent CEO in November 2024. This new structure provides renewed leadership and long-term direction for the organisation.
This period also saw the successful delivery of DaDaFest International: RAGE, our landmark 40th anniversary festival. Alongside this major programme, the CEO and the Exec Producer increased fundraising activity in support of the festival and longer-term ambitions. We strengthened our international profile through a British Council-funded research collaboration with Indonesia and began developing new relationships with disability arts organisations in Brazil. Funding was secured for a new composition project in partnership with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra to be delivered in summer 25, and we continued into Year 2 of our threeyear partnership with Liverpool Biennial, including recruiting the artist and planning for a large-scale cocommission for 2025.

Trustees’ Annual Report for the year ended 31 March 2025
There were also notable changes across staffing and governance. Chris Lowther stepped down as Operations and Finance Manager in August 2024, and we were pleased to welcome four new trustees to the Board: Mandy Redvers-Rowe, Barry Aviason, Erin Pritchard and Christine Bithell. Their experience and insight will strengthen our governance and support the next phase of DaDa’s development.
Future Plans
Looking ahead, our focus will be on continuing to strengthen the Board through a renewed trustee recruitment drive, supporting a diverse and skilled governance team. We will develop a robust business plan and fundraising strategy to underpin core organisational stability and provide ongoing support for artist development. Insights and evaluation from DaDaFest International in March 2025 will be used to inform future commissioning and programming, ensuring we continue to respond to need and opportunity. We will also recruit to key operational and finance staffing roles to support the organisation's continued growth and resilience.
Continued and extended funding through the Arts Council England NPO portfolio secures support until March 2027, with Liverpool City Council funding in place until March 2026. We aim to further strengthen the Board through ongoing recruitment and continue building strategic growth through fundraising and partnership development.
We extend our sincere thanks to everyone who supports us through funding, resources, participation and partnership, and especially to the DaDa staff and Board members who work tirelessly to turn our ambitions into reality.
The trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit in managing the activities of the charity.
The main achievements and performance of the charity during the year and the difference these have made to the beneficiaries of the charity and benefitted wider society.
During 2024/25, DaDa delivered a wide range of impactful artistic programmes, development opportunities and sector-focused activity that benefitted disabled artists, audiences and the wider community.
DaDaFest International —- RAGE (40th Anniversary Festival)
The festival launched with a high-profile event at Unity Theatre in November 2024, followed by a performance from Deaf choreographer Chisato Minamimura. Over the festival period, we worked with 150 disabled artists and delivered 22 live events and 36 workshops across 12 venues. We commissioned 7 new artworks, curated 7 exhibitions, premiered 9 short films, and released 7 podcasts and 1 debut album. The festival attracted audiences of more than 29,000 people and achieved an estimated reach of approximately 561,000. Press and broadcast coverage helped place DaDa firmly back at the centre of disability arts in Liverpool, the North West and nationally.

Individual Artist Development
We continued to support disabled artists to develop new work and professional pathways. This included supporting Joshua Henderson and musicians Mollie and Tyler (both former Ensemble members) in delivering a sold-out album launch at The Bluecoat in June 2024. Josh’s album is now on sale in HMV Liverpool as part of their local artist scheme.
The DDFI commissioning programme also supported emerging and established artists including Dolly Sen (RAGE sculpture), Amina Atig (poetry and film) and Zack Mennell (performance installation), enabling artists to develop new, ambitious work across a range of artforms.
Community, Education and Research
DaDa continued to deliver the long-running Ensemble project, providing inclusive music-making opportunities for disabled young people across Liverpool. Securing long-term funding for this programme remainsa priority.
We also delivered an international research collaboration with Jogja Disability Arts in Java, involving disabled artists from Jogjakarta, Liverpool, London, Wigan and Bali. The project explored creative exchange, identity, and new approaches to personalised access support within in-person creative work.
DaDa Fellows Programme
The Fellows Programme was completed with the presentation of Chris Shapiro's digital work as part of DDFI40.
Edward Rushton Social Justice Lecture
Our annual lecture, delivered in partnership with the Museum of Liverpool, was presented by Irish disabled writer and activist Kaite O'Reilly. Exploring themes of protest and meaningful change, the event also included a panel discussion with Ruth Fabby (former Artistic Director of DaDa), Cheryl Martin (Artistic Director, Red Ladder Theatre) and Julie McNamara (artist and activist).
Liverpool Biennial Partnership
In the second year of this three-year partnership, DaDa continued to support the Critical Friends Group — disabled artists advising Liverpool Biennial on greater inclusion for artists and audiences. DaDa team members provided guidance on access provision and engagement, and Executive Producers worked with the Biennial curator to research and interview disabled artists in preparation for a major co-commission in 2025.
Plans for future periods
2025/26 marks the third year of DaDa’s current Arts Council England National Portfolio agreement. Key priorities for the year include:
-
Continuing to strengthen governance through a trustee recruitment drive. - Using evaluation and audience data from the festival to shape future programmes and artist development opportunities.
-
Recruiting an Operations and Finance Manager to complete the leadership structure.
-
Refocusing the Edward Rushton Social Justice Lecture into a creative residency model supporting artists exploring disability and social justice.
-
Fundraising to secure a longer-term future for the Ensemble programme, with the aim of reaching more disabled young musicians and influencing inclusive music practice across the Liverpool City Region.

Financial review of the position at the reporting date, 31 March 2025.
Over the 2024/25 financial year, the organisation underwent a series of necessary structural changes designed to strengthen long-term sustainability. These changes did require investment up front, but the work is now complete and we are confident that the new structure will allow us to operate more efficiently and achieve meaningful savings in future years.
This was also a year in which we focused on rebuilding and improving our public profile after a period of reduced visibility. We invested in strengthening our staffing, refreshing our communications, and reasserting our position within the sector. These improvements have already helped us increase recognition, build stronger relationships, and better represent the value of disability arts and disabled-led cultural work.

Company Registration Number - 02636606
Trustees’ Annual Report for the year ended 31 March 2025
The largest planned expenditure of the year was our 40th Anniversary Festival, a major milestone not only for the organisation but for disabled artists in Liverpool and beyond. The programme wasa significant investment in the future of disability arts, offering a large-scale platform to showcase talent, engage audiences, and develop the wider sector.
As has been the case for more than a decade, we balance festival years with planned savings in non-festival periods. The 2025/26 financial year will not include a festival, and we anticipate reduced spend in artistic programming, casual staffing and overall programme costs while maintaining our partnerships and delivering our Arts Council England strategic commitments. We will continue to support artist development in the Liverpool City Region and explore new and diverse income streams where possible, ensuring expenditure returns to a sustainable level while sustaining a strong programme of activity.
Policies on reserves.
It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six months' running costs. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity's current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. While this policy is currently under review and consideration, unrestricted funds are £67,202 at 31 March 2025, with three months running costs projected as approximately £40,000 at current spending levels.
Availability and adequacy of assets of each of the funds
The board of trustees is satisfied that the charity's assets in each fund are available and adequate to fulfil its obligations in respect of each fund.

Report of the Independent Examiner to the Trustees of the charitable company on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025
| report to the Trustees on my examination of the financial statements of the charitable company on pages 10 to 25 for the year ended 31 March 2025 which have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) as modified by FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2019, applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , and under the historical cost convention and the accounting policies set out on page 14.
Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and the Independent Examiner and the basis of the report
As described on page 6, you, the charitable company's Trustees, who are also the Directors of the Company for the purposes of Company law, are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2011 and all other applicable law and with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, applicable to smaller entities, and for being satisfied that the financial statements give a true and fair view.
The Trustees consider that the audit requirement of Section 144(1) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) does not apply, and that there is no requirement in the memorandum and articles of the charity for the conducting of an audit, and that the accounts do not require an audit in accordance with Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and that no member or members have requested an audit pursuant to Section 476 of the Companies Act 2006. As a consequence, the Trustees have elected that the financial statements be subject to independent examination.
Having satisfied myself that the financial statements are not required to be audited under any legal provision, or otherwise, and are eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:-
a) examine the financial statements of the charity under Section 145 of the Act;
b) follow the applicable procedures in the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement and scope of work undertaken
Since the charitable company's gross income exceeded £250,000, the charitable company's examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the Act. | confirm that | am qualified to undertake the examination because | am an authorised member of CIPFA, which is one of the listed bodies.
| report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under $145 of the Act. In carrying out my examination, | have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act setting out the duties of an independent examiner in relation to the conducting of an independent examination. An independent examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charitable company and of the accounting systems employed by the charitable company and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from you, as Trustees, concerning such matters. The purpose of the examination is to establish as far as possible that there have been no breaches of charity legislation and that, on a test basis of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures made, the financial statements comply with the SORP.
The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and information supplied by the Trustees in the course of the examination is not subjected to audit tests or enquiries and does not cover all the matters that an auditor would consider in arriving at an opinion. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide
Consequently, | do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements, and in particular, | express no opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view of the affairs of the charity, and my report is limited to the matters set out in the statement below.
| planned and performed my examination so as to satisfy myself that the objectives of the independent examination are achieved and before finalising the report | obtained written assurances from the Trustees of all material matters.

Independent Examiner's Statement, Report and Opinion
Subject to the limitations upon the scope of my work as detailed above, | have completed my examination: and can confirm that:-
The accounts of this charitable company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006;
The gross income of the charitable company in the year ended 31 March 2025 appears to exceed the sum specified in Section 145(3) of the Act, namely £250000, and that | am qualified to act as Independent Examiner in accordance with that section by virtue of my being a qualified member of CIPFA;
This is a report in respect of an examination carried out under 145 of the Act and in accordance with Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act which may be applicable;
and that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by Section 386 of the Companies Act 2006 and Section 130 of The Charities Act 2011;
the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 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;
have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles set out in the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2019, applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP).
| 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 financial statements to be reached.

Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025
1 Accounting policies
Policies relating to the production of the accounts.
Basis of preparation and accounting convention
The accounts have been prepared on the accruals basis, under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) and 'FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2019, applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , and in accordance with all applicable law in the charity's jurisdiction of registration, except that the charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2019, applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), in preference to the previous SORP, the SORP 2005, which has been withdrawn, notwithstanding the fact that the extant statutory regulations, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 refer explicitly to the SORP 2005. This has been done to accord with current best practice.
Going Concern
There are no uncertainties about going concern.
Risks and future assumptions
The charity is a public benefit entity.
Policies relating to assets, liabilities and provisions and other matters.
Debtors
Debtors are measured at their recoverable amounts at the balance sheet date.
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.
Financial instruments including cash and bank balances
Cash held by the charity is included at the amount actually held and counted at the year end. Bank balances, whether in credit or overdrawn, are shown at the amounts properly reconciled to the bank statements.
Fund Accounting
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.
There are no designated funds.
Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal or as implied by law.
There are no endowment funds.

DADA- Disability and Deaf Arts
Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025 2 Liability to taxation
The Trustees consider that the charity satisfies the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by chapter 3 part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively on the specific charitable objects of the charity and for no other purpose. Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the charity, and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities.
3 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.
4 Significance of financial instruments to the charity's position
There are no significant implications of such matters.
