Trustees’ annual report (including Directors’ report) for the period
The directors (who also act as trustees for the charitable activities of Langham Arts Trust) have the pleasure in presenting their report and financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st December 2024.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Summary of the main achievements of the charity this year
During the year the Trust was able to support a wide variety of activities in line with its aims and objectives.
Objectives set for the year
During 2024, Langham Arts Trust built on the momentum of previous years to deliver an exciting and impactful programme of activity that remained true to our core mission: to advance the Christian faith through music. With new growth in reach, depth and creativity, our events brought people together across the UK and beyond to experience the transforming power of the gospel through music.
A highlight of the year was Prom Praise: Chariots of Fire , our major Royal Albert Hall event celebrating the Olympic year and the legacy of Eric Liddell. Partnering with Christians in Sport and Searchlight Theatre Company, we shared the story of Liddell’s faith in a powerful fusion of orchestral music, narration and video. The concert was attended in person by thousands and the free livestream has been viewed by over 120,000 people across the world.
Christmas 2024 saw a beautiful new production: ‘A Long Time Ago in Bethlehem’ , exploring 2,000 years of Christmas music from the earliest known hymn – the Oxyrhynchus Hymn – to beloved carols and the 1990 Christmas Number 1 ‘Saviour’s Day’. Once again, thousands came through the doors of All Souls, Langham Place for this unique and moving event and the carol services throughout December.
Prom Praise for Schools returned to the Royal Albert Hall in March, with 62 schools and over 5,000 children, parents and teachers singing their hearts out to the theme of King David: A Hero’s Journey . The entire experience was a joyful celebration and a vivid reminder that it really is ‘all about Jesus’.
In 2024, we also got the All Souls Orchestra back on the road with a visit to Crowborough and relaunched the Langham Arts Big Band at Big Church Festival . We were proud to support All Souls, Langham Place in celebrating their 200th anniversary – a milestone year for the church and a joy for the music ministry to help mark it musically.
The Langham Arts Youth Orchestra launched to great excitement. Over a dozen young musicians gathered to learn about God’s Creation through music, rehearse and perform together and grow in faith and fellowship. Their evening showcase at All Souls was an uplifting testament to what’s possible when young people are encouraged to grow in excellence, confidence and purpose. The vision for the Youth Orchestra is to nurture future generations of musicians who will play skilfully and serve faithfully.
We hosted dozens of supporters at the Royal College of Music for a reception to thank them and share plans for the future. We also launched new initiatives for our growing Membership scheme, including our first online ‘Meet the Director’ event and an in-person reception .

Planning for 2025 is already well underway:
-
Prom Praise: Wonder returns to the Royal Albert Hall in May
-
The All Souls Orchestra prepares for a spring tour to Austria
-
We begin work to extend Prom Praise for Schools beyond London , with eyes set on 2026 at the Royal Albert Hall and beyond
Our programme of regular training and gathering opportunities continued. Musicians meet weekly to rehearse and study the Bible, complemented by termly Music Ministry Gatherings and New Musicians’ Evenings . These sessions are at the heart of the community we’re building – one that’s musically excellent, spiritually rooted and relationally strong.
In every part of this activity, the Trustees are very conscious of and grateful for the massive commitment of time and gifts given freely by so many from the players and singers to the unseen support behind the scenes in roles as diverse as operating cameras, catering support, loading equipment and more.
In preparing their statements on public benefit, contained within this trustees annual report, the Trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position at end of the period
The company experienced a surplus of £763 compared with the surplus £1678 for the previous reporting period to December 2023.
Reserves
This brought the charity reserves to £33358 (of which £31626 is unrestricted). The Trustees policy is to aim to hold in unrestricted reserves three months working capital.
Risk assessment policy
The systems of internal control are designed to identify risk. They include:
-
a strategic plan and an annual budget approved by the board;
-
regular consideration by the board of financial results and variance from budgets;
-
segregation of duties and identification and management of risk.
The major risks to which the charity is exposed, as identified by the trustees, are reviewed on a regular basis. The board seeks to ensure that appropriate systems, controls and procedures are put in place to minimise all risks. The principal risk of the present time concerns the on-going challenges of post-pandemic recovery and on-going uncertainty about the return of live events. The Board is continuing to monitor this area and seeking new funding options.
Principal Sources of funds
The charity continues to be dependent on the following sources:
-
The Trustees were extraordinarily grateful for the continued support of committed partners, including the All Souls Music Partnership.
-
Many generous individuals contributed, with our 2024 Big Give Christmas Challenge raising over £20,000 – our most successful yet.
-
Membership continues to grow, helping foster a deeper connection with supporters.
-
We also remain thankful for our suppliers who have discounted services, particularly our technical teams.
-
The Trustees acknowledge with gratitude the continuing support of All Souls Church PCC , including the provision of office facilities.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Legal status
Langham Arts Trust is a company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 20 November 1996. It is registered with the UK Charity Commission. The company was established under its Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and governed its Articles of Association. In the event of the company being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £10.
Appointment and induction of Trustees
Trustees are appointed by the Board and at each Annual General Meeting one third of Board Members will retire from office. On retirement Trustees are eligible for re-election. The Articles of Association provides that the number of Trustees shall not be less than three and shall not be subject to any maximum. Trustees are also responsible for the appointment of new members, in line with their understanding of the best interests of All Souls Church. With this in mind, the addendum to the Articles includes agreement that roles of Rector (or Rector’s representative) and Churchwardens (or Churchwardens’ representatives) will always be included.
New Trustees undergo an induction to brief them on their legal obligations under charity and company law, the content of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Council and the decision making processes and the recent performance of the charity. They meet key employees and the other Trustees.
Trustees’ & directors’ responsibilities in the preparation of financial statements
The trustees and directors are responsible for preparing the trustees’ annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
The provisions of charity and company law require the trustees and directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law, the trustees and directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Standards and applicable law). The financial statements are required by law to give a true and fair view in accordance with the United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice of the state of affairs of the charity as at the balance sheet date, and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees and directors are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgments 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 on that basis.
The trustees and directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity, and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 and the Companies Act 2006. 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 trustees and directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information on the charity’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
Organisational structure
The trustees meet approximately every quarter to manage the affairs of the charity and instruct the Senior Music Minister and his Senior Leadership Team. The Senior Leadership Team – made up of the Director (Senior Music Minister), Director of Development & Operations, Executive Producer, Head of Community and Outreach Projects and Head of Church Family Music Projects – remains the delegated authority for operational matters including finance, employment, events and production.
The Board is very appreciative of the work done by the small dedicated staff team who not only manage large-scale events at the Royal Albert Hall and across the UK, but also lead worship at All Souls, Langham Place every week, serve at parish services and support training and pastoral care for musicians throughout the year.

Charity number: 1059611, Company number: 3281520
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT
To the Trustees & Members of Langham Arts Trust (‘the Company’);
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2024, which are set out on the pages below.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities Act 2011 and the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. The trustees consider that the audit requirement of section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 does not apply and that an independent examination is required.
It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011;
-
Follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act;
-
State whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An 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 trustees concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.
Independent examiner’s statement
In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
The accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act 2011; or
-
The accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
The accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a “true and fair” view.
I 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 accounts to be reached.
