## **THE BLACK DYKE BAND (1855) LIMITED** 

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Period 1 January 2020 to 31 March 2021** 

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the period 1 January 2020 to 31 March 2021. The trustees 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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

The Trustees have referred to the Charity Commission general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the aims and objectives in planning future activities. 

The charity's objectives are to advance the education of the public in the matter of the arts by: 

a) promoting artistic activities including the composition of and performance of music including but not limited to brass band music; 

b) promoting the education and training of members of the public musical performance and composition techniques, including but not limited to those relevant to brass band music; 

c) promoting and maintaining music teaching facilities; 

d) providing scholarships, exhibitions and bursaries to enable individuals to further their musical education; and 

e) maintaining a library of brass band and musical composition scores and reference works. 

## **Significant activities** 

The income of the charity is primarily generated by the activities of The Black Dyke Band (1855) Promotions Limited through  its income from concerts, recordings and sale of merchandise. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

Early in the period, The Black Dyke Band performed in concerts, released new CD recordings, and took part in competitions whilst continuing its work with the young people through the Yorkshire Youth Brass Band. This changed in March 2020 when the Covid-19 pandemic struck and all normal band activities were suspended. The Trustees sought alternative income streams to help get the band through the difficult times. 

The main source of this was a Recovery Grant from Arts Council England which the band used to fund online lessons and a new website front end to help promote the band's activities. 

Thanks to previously secured funding, the band headquarters continues to establish itself as a Heritage Centre celebrating the history of the band and its members. 

Music Director Professor Childs and his players continued their work with the Yorkshire Youth Brass Band. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

The charity achieved as surplus of £90,714 for the period ended 31 March 2021 (2019 - £25,880). Unrestricted funds at the year end are £594,887 (2019 - £559,791) with restricted funds at £67,461 (2019 - £11,843). 

The reporting period is 15 months long, whereas the comparative period is 12.

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Reserves policy** 

At the year end, the charity had free reserves of £486,994 (2019 - £462,680). Any surplus assets are invested in interest bearing cash balances and the trustees seek to maintain reserves adequate to finance the charity's activities. 

Most of the charity's expenditure is spent on the direct costs of playing at concerts and taking part in competition. 

## **Going concern** 

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 

Due to the global COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent restrictions put in place by the UK Government on 23 March 2020, the band was not been able to rehearse or perform from that date onwards. This significantly impacted the income streams of both the charity and its subsidiary in the 2020/21 financial year. Since the reporting date, those restrictions have been removed and the  band has been able to continue rehearsing and performing. 

The charity and its subsidiary were placed in a period of incubation, operating on minimum costs, whilst the situation continues. The trustees explored alternative income streams and were able to secure funding from Arts Council England and sponsorship from a reputable instrument manufacturer.  The charity sought financial assistance from the Government where available. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Charity constitution** 

The Black Dyke Band (1855) Limited is a company limited by guarantee, incorporated 9 October 1996, and also registered as a charity on 16 December 1996. The company was established under a Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended by a special resolution dated 28 November 1996, which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and it is governed under these Articles of Association. All trustees are members of the charitable company and have undertaken to contribute such amount as may be required, but not exceeding £10, to the charity's asset should there be a deficit in them on the charitable  company being wound up. 

## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** 

The number of trustees must not be less than three but is not subject to any maximum. Trustees are required to retire from office on a rotation basis at the Annual General Meeting. The trustees required to retire by rotation are those who have been longest in  office. If the charity, at the meeting at which a trustee retires by rotation, does not fill the vacancy the retiring trustee, if willing to act, is reappointed unless it has been resolved at a meeting not to fill the vacancy. No other person can be appointed or reappointed as trustee unless they are recommended by the trustees. The trustees may appoint a person who is willing to act to be a trustee either  to fill a vacancy or as an additional trustee.  The induction of new trustees is completed by existing trustees. 

## **Organisational structure** 

The charity is required to hold an Annual General Meeting each year in addition to any other meeting in that year, and is required to specify the meeting as such in the notices of calling it. The Annual General Meetings are required to be held not more than  fifteen months apart. No business can be transacted at any meeting unless a quorum is present. Each member has one vote at a meeting. A resolution put to the vote of the meeting is decided on a show of hands, unless a poll is, before or upon the declaration of the result of the show of hands, demanded by the chairman or at least two members present in person or by a member or members representing not less than one-tenth of the total voting rights of all members having the right to vote at the meeting. In a case of equality votes, whether on a show of hands or on a poll, the chairman is entitled to a casting vote in addition to any other vote he may have.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE BLACK DYKE BAND (1855) LIMITED** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Black Dyke Band (1855) Limited ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the period 1 January 2020 to 31 March 2021. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the  Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). 

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.

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is  probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Intangible fixed assets** 

Intangible fixed assets are included at cost less attributable amortisation. Amortisation is provided on a straight line basis as follows: 

Website                              - 20% on cost Online lessons                    - 20% on cost 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

|---|---|
|Improvements to property|- 2% on cost|
|Musical instruments|- 20% on cost|
|Computer equipment|- 20% on cost|

## **13. RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES** 

At the end of the year the charity was owed £455,227 (2019 - £395,760) by The Black Dyke Band (1855) Promotions Limited.  There is no interest accruing on this balance, nor are there any terms as to repayment. 

## **14. POST BALANCE SHEET EVENTS** 

Due to the global COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent restrictions put in place by the UK Government on 23 March 2020, the band was not been able to rehearse or perform for much of the reporting period. This significantly impacted the income streams of both the charity and its subsidiary in the 2020/21 financial year. Since the reporting date, those restrictions have been removed and the band has been able to continue rehearsing and performing. 

The charity and its subsidiary were placed in a period of incubation, operating on minimum costs, whilst the situation continued. The trustees explored alternative income streams and were able to secure funding from Arts Council England and sponsorship from a reputable instrument manufacturer. The charity sought financial assistance from the Government where available. 

## **15. ULTIMATE CONTROLLING PARTY** 

There is no ultimate controlling party.

## **16. LENGTH OF REPORTING PERIOD** 

The reporting period for the accounts is for the 15 months from 1 January 2020 to 31 March 2021. The reason for the longer reporting period is to bring the charitable company's year end in line with the end of the tax year and subsequently many of the organisations with which the charity works. 

The charity has notified the relevant authorities of its intention to run an extended period. 

As a result of the longer accounting period, the comparative amounts presented in the accounts, together with the related notes, are not entirely comparable.
