**HAYDN FESTIVAL TRUST** 

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2022** 

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st December 2022. 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 activities** 

This year I was very pleased that we were able to support a full weeks festival after the last few very difficult years  due to the covid pandemic restriction, with us only able to support a one day festival last year. 

The week of lunchtime and evening concerts were enthusiastically received by the audiences who were delighted by the live performances of Joseph Haydn's music. 

We are already planning another full week of concerts for the 2023 season. 

I want to thank the Trustees, the Festival Friends for their financial support, and all our volunteers for their dedication to the task of supporting the Trust's mission of the advancement of classical music, particularly relating 18th century compositions, by financially supporting the Festival, and by educational school visits. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

The company has incurred greater musician costs and related expenses this year with putting the festival on for a week rather than one day last year. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

The funds are currently at £14,754 which is being maintained to allow the festival to continue and promote classical music to the local area. 

During the year ended 31st December 2022, there was a deficit of income over expenditure of £16,159 compared to £8,133 last year. The Charity has sufficient reserves to support the festival for the foreseeable future. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document** 

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, dated 2nd June 1998, and constitutes an unincorporated charity. 

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

The charity does not use any particular method to recruit and appoint new trustees but relies on the goodwill and assistance from local residents.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF HAYDN FESTIVAL TRUST** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Haydn Festival Trust** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Haydn Festival Trust (the Trust) for the year ended 31st December 2022. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). 

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

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

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or 

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

3. 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 which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

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.
