The trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning its future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives that have been set.
Achievements and performance

Trustees’ annual report
for the year ended 31 March 2025
Financial review
British Council Support £1,000 for A String Section and State of the Arts Flemish Commission €2,200 Veranos de la Villa.
At the end of the financial year, the total unrestricted reserves of the charity were £20,907 and the restricted funds of the charity were £2,431.
Reserves policy
In the company’s opinion, the principal risk to the organisation is the continuation of future funding streams. The policy adopted to mitigate this risk is to work to build up sufficient reserves to cover a minimum of 3 months’ operating costs. The company’s overheads are relatively minimal, and there are no major investments or loans. As a result, the directors find the above policy quite adequate.
Structure, governance and management
Governing document
The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on March 13, 1996 and registered as a charity on April 2, 1996. The charitable company was established under a Memorandum of Association that established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. In the event of the charitable company being wound up, members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1.
Trustees
All trustees are already familiar with the practical work of the charity, attending public performances and inclusion in the development of the current business plan. Trustees are recruited by the company for their varied backgrounds and specialist knowledge that will support the company in different areas of its existence.
New trustees are invited to meet the board to familiarise themselves with the charity and the context within which it operates and cover:
-
The obligations of Management Committee members
-
Documents that outline the operational framework of the company, including the articles and memorandum
-
The current financial position as set out in the latest published accounts
-
Future plans and objectives
Trustees are given a briefing on their legal obligations under charity and company law, and the content of the Memorandum and Articles of Association. Details of the committee and decision-making process are provided to the trustees prior to their acceptance of the appointment. Following acceptance, further copies of the business plan and recent financial reports regarding the charity’s work are also forwarded.
An introduction pack with questions and answers has been produced, drawing information from the Charity Commission publications, highlighted through the Commission's guide “The Essential Trustee”. This document is used as an induction tool kit for all new trustees.

Reckless Sleepers
Trustees’ annual report
for the year ended 31 March 2025
In shaping our objectives for the year and planning our activities, the trustees have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit, paying particular attention to the area regarding fee charging, where we work closely to address this issue with our presenting partners.
Organisation
A board of trustees of up to ten people administers the charity. The board meets quarterly to discuss issues such as developments, current projects, future projects, finance and audits, contributing to the smooth running of the company. The Chair of the board directs the meetings and is in place to deal with any issues that may arise regarding complaint procedures, and a Company Artistic Director is appointed by the trustees to manage the daily operations of the charity.
Related parties and relationships with other organisations
The charity has an ongoing strong working relationship with a variety of educational establishments, which aids the charity in its commitment to developing successful education programmes. The support from these establishments allows for both long and short term residences benefiting young people from schools, colleges and universities.
Risk management
Within the framework of the quarterly trustee board meetings, discussions are held regarding possible risks the charity may face and the shaping of systems and procedures to deal with and minimise the potential impacts on the company should those risks materialise.

1 Accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
a Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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), second edition - October 2019 (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
The charity has applied the exemption available to small charities in the Charities SORP (FRS 102) and does not include a Statement of Cash Flows in these Financial Statements.
Reckless Sleepers meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note.
b Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern. No key judgments which the trustees have made which have a significant effect on the accounts.
The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

Reckless Sleepers
Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025 (continued)
c Income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the charity that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.
Income received in advance of a provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.
d Donated services and facilities
Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised; refer to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution.
On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.
e Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.

f Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose.
Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity’s work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.
g Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
-
Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs.
-
Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
h Tangible fixed assets
Individual fixed assets costing £500 or more are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on a straight line basis as follows:
Fixtures and equipment
25% reducing balance
12
Reckless Sleepers
Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025 (continued)
i Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
j Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
k 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.
l Financial instruments
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
2 Legal status of the charity
The charity is a company limited by guarantee registered in England and Wales and has no share capital. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity. The registered office address is disclosed on page 1.
