CORALI DANCE COMPANY (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE AND HAVING NO SHARE CAPITAL) DIRECTORS' AND TRUSTEES' REPORT
for the year ended 31st March 2025
Report of the Trustees
The Trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and “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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016)
Objectives and activities
In setting our objectives and activities, the Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit.
The Trustees sum up Corali's charitable purposes, as defined in its Memorandum, as the following: Corali uses dance to engage and inspire people with a learning disability by putting on original performance works and by offering ongoing professional development, engagement and training opportunities. Corali removes barriers to enable people with a learning disability to contribute meaningfully to cultural activities, positively raises awareness of disability and supports people with a learning disability to lead full and healthy lifestyles.
The charity’s objectives are:
-
to present high quality public performances created by dancers with a learning disability
-
to provide professional and personal development opportunities in dance for people with a learning disability
-
to work in partnership with other organisations in the dance and disability sectors to forward methodologies and promote best practice
The Trustees felt that our purposes were best achieved by continuing our core programme, alongside strengthening our infrastructure and existing partnerships.
Our core programme consists of:
- An artistic programme made up of a core company and a youth company, delivering UK-wide public performances and regular professional development for dancers
An engagement programme made up of an adult community class, a class for young people aged 14-25, a schools
- programme, community outreach sessions, special projects and workshops, and training for external organisations and professionals
The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding which activities the charity should undertake.
Achievements and Performance
Artistic programme
April 2024 – March 2025 was a wonderfully successful year for Corali, widening our audiences across the UK and featuring four highprofile and ambitious projects: Phantasia, Leadership in Action, Finding Ivy and Kick Up youth company projects.
Phantasia was our exciting new performance programme led in partnership with The Place, London. The project kick-started in July with our dancers taking part in Choreodrome , The Place’s own prestigious dance development programme. We collaborated with artists Mark Beldan and Matt Webb to develop two new performances that were premiered at the Place in March 2025, alongside a work-in-progress by Kick Up, our youth company. The premiere was accompanied by a photographic exhibition by artist Jon C Archdeacon, that captured the creation process of Phantasia .
“It was such a high-quality production with unique and interesting choreography and beautiful sound. Loved it!” Audience comment, Phantasia, March 2025

Leadership in Action, Corali’s dance leadership development programme, saw us working in partnership with People Dancing to deliver the first ever national learning-disabled dance leadership symposium. The day took place at Attenborough Arts in Leicester in June 2024. The sold-out event included Things to Remember, performed by Corali dancers, as well as workshops and discussions. 100% of attendees expressed that they would value a follow-up event.
“Everyone has a really strong voice if you give them a chance.” “Coming together is so impactful!” Leadership in Action participants, June 2024
In January 2024, we began an impactful partnership with the Percussion Orchestra at City Lit, exploring the difficult subject matter of British-born individuals with learning disabilities who were victims of the Nazis’ Aktion T4 programme. This culminated in a performance at City Lit in May 2024.
Kick Up youth company performed at Brixton House in July 2024, showcasing the culmination of their studio practice over the year, incorporating spoken word, movement and film. The film element will now tour as an independent artwork under the title Frame Work. In February 2025, Frame Work was selected and screened at U.Dance regional platform at Trinity Laban in London.
“Our young people freely expressing themselves, their focus and commitment and their faces once they have seen themselves on the big screen !” Kick Up parent
Our engagement and outreach work continued to blossom in 2024-25. Our programme of classes (two community classes, a youth company class and a professional development class) continue to be well-attended and are a great bedrock for our annual activities. They also provide a connection to the wider community of people with a learning disability. During the year we completed the first year of our new facilitator course to enable dancers with a learning disability to develop workshop-leading skills.
Our outreach programme, co-delivered by a tutor with a learning disability, comprised workshops at local and national special schools including Artsmark schools, and for London-based community groups. We led dance leadership workshops at Fabric in Birmingham, and for the People Dancing summer school in Leicester, as well as online. We were delighted to lead our summer intensive Are You Ready at Brixton House and to deliver a special workshop at The Curve gallery, Barbican in London.
‘Inclusivity embodied!’ People Dancing Summer School
Over 1200 audience members attended our live performance and film screenings, 418 people took part in our engagement programme and we reached 75,600 people on social media.
Developing our sustainability and structure
We are grateful to our high impact team, which for this period was made up of 3 part-time staff and 3 key organisational associates. Arianna Carloni - who joined the team as General Manager in November 2023 - has become a valuable team member, being the great combination of friendly and hardworking! Nik Rayworth continues to drive our engagement and outreach programme with energy and enthusiasm, and she moved from an associate position to a PAYE employee. Our organisational associates were Kate Sarley as Finance Consultant, Jennifer Dyer as Fundraising and Impact, and Saskia Horton as Inclusion and Access. Notably, in 2024-25 Jennifer’s accessible evaluation research was nominated for a Digital Cultural Award by Arts Council England (ACE), and Saskia launched our new governance advisory group, Corali Voice. Corali Voice is made up of representatives from our annual programme, and is a vital addition to our structure, ensuring the voices of our learning-disabled community are represented at board level and providing a new dynamic to our decisionmaking processes. Our artistic, engagement and outreach programmes continue to be delivered by our excellent, talented and committed team of artistic associates, including our three Associate Artistic Directors: Housni Hassan, Jacobus Flynn and Bridget Chew.

Simon Jarrett, our chair of eight years, stepped down in February. Although his tenure was due to end in 2023, he took up a cochair role with Lindsey Pugh to support the embedding of a new staff structure. Lindsey Pugh then became chair in February. We are excited to work with Lindsey in this capacity. We are so very grateful to Simon for his excellent stewardship during his time as chair and look forward to keeping in contact with him.
Sarah Frankenburg stood down as trustee in September 2024, after nine years. We are so grateful to Sarah for her commitment and input over this period. She continues to keep in touch with the company and is in the process of setting up an informal group of ex-Corali trustees called the Corali Chorus . In February we ran a successful trustee recruitment campaign, and two new trustees joined the board in May 2025.
In October 2024 we held a whole company away day at Siobhan Davies Studios, expertly facilitated by consultant Jan Winter. The morning provided the opportunity to work with the board to approve a new team structure (see below in Plans for the Future), and the afternoon brought everyone together to dreamscape future projects/partnerships and ensure an exciting and galvanised company vision.
With an office revamp at the end of March 2025, we continue to enjoy our base as part of the creative hub at Carlton Mansions, the offices adjoining Brixton House. All our regular annual programme classes continue to take place in the theatre's state-of-the art studios.
During the year we continued to develop key partnerships that support the development of our practice and widen our audience, such as Demonstrate!, our holiday project for disabled children aged 8-14, in partnership with Brixton House. We also took part in Cabrolé in November 2024, a new partnership with the company Eric Longa.
Financial review
We are extremely grateful to all our funders for their continued support of the company.
2024–25 was the second year of our 3-year National Portfolio (NPO) grant from Arts Council England (ACE). This grant has now been extended by ACE until March 2027, in recognition of turbulent economic times and a change in government. The grant is of £101,840 per year, including an additional uplift grant of £64,500, providing a firm foundation for our finances as well as supporting the company’s overall continued ambitions.
This was the first full year of our 5-year grant of £132,000 from City Bridge Foundation. This grant contributes to our annual programme of classes, as well our new facilitator training course, Aspire, and our governance advisory group, Corali Voice.
In February 2025 we heard the good news that we had secured a grant of £5,250 from Abderrahim Crickmay Charitable Settlement, towards our performance programme Phantasia . We were delighted to receive a second generous grant from this funder, who had also supported the project’s research and development in 2024.
We were delighted to receive grants from three new funders: £5,937 from The True Colours Trust towards our summer intensive and youth company programme; £3000 from the Three Monkies Trust towards our youth engagement work; and £3000 from the Garrick Charitable Trust towards our Phantasia performance programme. St. James’s Place Charitable Foundation gave a grant of £1,500 towards our youth company programme, and we are hugely grateful to them for funding us for a second year running. We completed our Monitoring and Evaluation project funded by the CriSeren Foundation and are hugely grateful for their continued and ongoing support of Corali.
The 2024–25 deficit was covered by the surplus generated in 2023–24. The 2023–24 surplus was primarily due to one-off income: an Arts Council project grant (to tour the main company work) and a backdated Theatre Tax Relief (TTR) claim. From now on, we will record TTR claims in the financial year in which they are received.”

During the previous financial year, under the guidance of our Finance Consultant, we conducted a finance system review that led to bringing payroll and bookkeeping in-house. This resulted in a reduction in support costs in this financial year.
Reserves Policy
As of March 31, 2025, Corali held a total of £204,451 in unrestricted reserves. Of this, £75,712 as an operational reserve designated winding-down fund, £50,000 designated reserve funds towards artistic costs, and free reserves of £78,739. The operational reserves are to cover core activity in the event of a period of unforeseen difficulty or needing to wind up the charitable company in an ordered and proper fashion. The company reserves policy is reviewed by the finance sub-committee annually and approved by the Trustees.
Risk
The Trustees regularly review the major risks to which Corali is exposed, aided by a clear and regularly updated risk register. Where appropriate, systems or procedures are or have been established to mitigate any risks faced by the organisation. Internal control risks are minimised through clear authorisation procedures for all projects, activities and financial transactions. Procedures are also in place to ensure the health and safety of staff, participants and visitors.
Plans for the future
Corali has exciting and ambitious plans to tour the new performance and film work we created during the year. We are in conversation with The Mount Without in Bristol to present Phantasia in early 2026 and we will return to The Place with an extract of the work, including an informal seminar about our practice, in September 2025. Two company films are touring: Dancing to Art (2019) is being shown at the BFI as part of a celebratory weekend of disabled filmmaking, and our youth company film Framework (2024) is being screened as part of U.Dance National Festival at Sadler’s Wells East.
We continue to develop our partnerships: we are in discussion with People Dancing to develop a follow-up dance leadership symposium in tandem with our own dance leadership development programme; we are taking part in a second Cabrolé event at the South Bank; and are in discussions with Thick & Tight to be part of the national tour of their dance programme Natural Behaviour .
In October 2024, Artistic Director Sarah Archdeacon worked with consultant Jan Winter to revise and refine Corali’s organisational structure as a way to further develop the impact, ambition and succession of our small team. The proposed structure was scrutinised by the board at our October away day and approved at our December board meeting. This plan came into operation in April 2025, and features a complete staff review, including the creation of a new post and the position of General Manager becoming Senior Producer.

Corali Dance Company meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.

Furniture, fixtures and equipment 20% on reducing balance or over useful life
(iii) Income
Income derived from co-production agreements, performance fees and other sales is credited to the Statement of Financial Affairs (SOFA) in the period to which it relates on the basis of entitlement - excluding value added tax. Grants and donations represent amounts from individuals, corporations, trusts and other funding bodies and are credited to the SOFA in the year in which they are expended.
(iv) Expenditure
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis excluding value added tax.
Costs are allocated to a category in the SOFA either because such costs are directly incurred in relation to such category, or because they are support costs in respect of which an apportionment has been made between the SOFA categories.
Support costs consist of infrastructure costs for salaries, premises, office administration. Such costs are apportioned on a reasonable and consistent basis to the various SOFA categories with a view to determining, as accurately as possible, the total resources expended for each category. The basis of apportionment used is either a function of staff time applied to a given activity, or an estimate of the proportion of costs associated with the same, or a combination of both.
Direct and Support costs are separately shown by natural classification in Note 4 to these accounts for each SOFA category of cost.
