## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023** 

## **Constitution** 

East Devon Music is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation governed by its constitution dated 21 February 2020. 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

The principal objectives of the charity are to advance, promote and develop the arts for the people of Honiton and its surrounding district, but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, to broaden the range of educational and community activities through the mediua of expressive and performing arts.  The principal activity of the charity is the presentation of high quality live music. 

## **Achievements and Performance** 

Our activities were severely compromised by the untimely death of our Artistic Director, Tim Phillips, in November 2022.  As a result we were able to present only one concert (dedicated to our benefactor Jean Price) in June 2023, featuring harpist Harriet Adie.  We are keen to help young musicians and in this regard sponsored an Award for East Devon through the charity Awards for Young Musicians. 

## **Financial Review** 

Our total income for the year was £1,107  (2022 ‐ £629) and our expenditure was £5,296  (2022 £6,718).  Our accumulated cash funds for the year are £ 111,159 (2022 ‐ £115,348)
