VISION

The Charity aims to enhance the quality of life of local people by providing arts, social and educational opportunities.

MISSION STATEMENT

Our vision is of delivering a vibrant, lively programme for the community.

Core activities

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Thanks to the generous support of funders and donors, and the work of our professional practitioners and volunteers, BCB has succeeded in bringing widely accessible community arts projects to local groups, schools, and individuals. In the financial year 2024-25, children and young people were able to access quality performing arts through our Brixton Youth Theatre (BYT), BYT Younger, Acting Together, and Holiday Activity and Food programmes.

Projects have also been delivered to promote the well-being of local residents and to strengthen community cohesion and social inclusion.

The accounts show a deficit of £4,946 deducted from brought forward retained funds of £47,096, leaving a reserves balance of £42,150 available for charitable activities. Seven projects were delivered in the year, and Trustees agreed that shortfalls in project funding should be met from reserves, on a case-by-case basis. Eleven volunteers assisted with projects, and we thank them for their support. All activities were free of charge to participants.

PROJECTS

Brixton Youth Theatre

BYT is led by Artistic Co-Directors Max Gold and David Baker.

BYT developed four strands of work: BYT Youngers (7-11), BYT Older (13+), Holiday Activity and Food (HAF) programmes and the outreach project BYT Acting Together for young refugees aged 7-11 from asylumseeking families housed in Lambeth.

BYT'S AIMS:

Brixton Youth Theatre Report

BYT Older Group - 13+

Over the past year, BYT continued to run its highly popular drama and performing arts programme for young people aged 13 and over. Across three terms, we delivered more than 40 workshops, which included skills development sessions and rehearsals for our annual production.

Our workshops took place every Friday from 18:00 to 20:00 and included a wide range of creative activities such as drama games, acting exercises, filmmaking, scriptwriting, spoken word, monologue and casting workshops, self-tape sessions, and specialist masterclasses.

In addition to weekly sessions, we organised regular theatre trips to see professional productions at venues including the Young Vic, National Theatre, and the Unicorn Theatre. These visits broadened our members’ understanding of the industry and deepened their appreciation of live performance.

This year’s programme included a public performance of the play the group had been developing and rehearsing. The young people presented their work to an audience of family, friends, the local community and industry professionals, receiving highly positive feedback both individually and as an ensemble. This ambitious project challenged them creatively and personally, helping to build confidence, teamwork, self-discipline, communication skills and problem-solving abilities. It encouraged mutual support, risk-taking in a safe environment, and the development of patience and resilience. The production was very well received and now serves as a strong foundation for future creative work.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

BYT Older Group - 13+ (continued)

BYT also supported events in the wider community. We were invited by The Friends of Brixton Library (FoBL) to create a performance commemorating the life and legacy of Benjamin Zephaniah.

Our young people brought his work to life in a well-attended celebration, earning praise for their sensitivity, talent and professionalism.

Other highlights this year included many casting and audition opportunities, career development sessions, insights from visiting industry professionals, work experience placements and expanded responsibilities for our BYT Ambassadors. These activities, alongside our regular workshops, help maintain the energy and excitement that keep young people fully engaged in the programme.

We concluded the year with our annual BYT Open Mic, celebrating the talents of our members through music, dance, monologues and spoken word.

Celebrating BYT Alumni

We are extremely proud of the achievements of past BYT members. Many have gone on to secure professional work in major film, television and theatre productions. Several have also earned places at prestigious institutions, including the BRIT School, London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA), the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, and the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama.

FUNDERS:

Children in Need Brixton Community Based

BYT Youngers - 7-11

BYT Youngers is a programme for local disadvantaged children aged 7-11. The group meets every Friday from 16:15 to 17:45 across three 13-week terms, taking part in a wide range of activities including drama games and exercises, improvisation, storytelling, devising, script work, performing, and public speaking.

Through engaging, creative, and fun drama activities, we aim to support the personal development of children and young people, helping them to build confidence, communication and interpersonal skills, creativity, and selfbelief.

In September 2024, we received continued funding from the National Lottery Community Fund Awards. This support has been invaluable and has played a crucial role in helping us build on the success of the project. We are already beginning to see the impact of this work, with several participants reaching the appropriate age and ‘graduating’ into the BYT Older group. This progression pathway is an important part of our long-term vision to create a clear ladder of opportunity and to keep young people engaged in positive activities throughout their teenage years - providing a sustained alternative to the negative behaviours that are common in the local area.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

BYT Youngers - 7-11 (continued)

We are also seeing children and young people developing cross-project links with other strands of our work, including our HAF programmes and the Acting Together project.

Across the year, participants have been working on scripts such as Olympic Dreams, The Emperor’s Silent Daughter, and a series of duologues, which we plan to perform for friends and family. Young people have also enjoyed theatre visits to the Unicorn Theatre, and some have even had casting opportunities as a result of their growing skills and confidence.

BYT Acting Together

Our Acting Together outreach project is based at Wheatsheaf Community Hall in Vauxhall and runs after school throughout the year during term time. The programme provides workshops for children aged 7-11 who are housed in hotels in Lambeth, as well as for children living on local estates.

The project aims to use drama and performing arts to support the development of spoken English, build confidence and self-esteem, develop creativity and help children achieve in school. We also aim to provide a safe space and a welcome respite from life in a hotel room, while encouraging integration with children and young people from nearby estates who also take part in the project. Activities include storytelling, public speaking, improvisation, group-building games, devising and performance. The project also creates opportunities for parents and carers to meet, mix and socialise.

In addition to the regular drama sessions, we have taken the children on theatre trips, including visits to Shakespeare’s Globe and the Unicorn Theatre. Young people have also taken part in our other programmes such as HAF and BYT Youngers. We have supported individual children as well; for example, by helping one child write a reference for school, and coaching another for a scholarship audition.

We have also run taster sessions for children living in hotels in Clapham and Streatham, and plan to extend the project to reach more of these young people.

We are extremely grateful to The Walcot Foundation for supporting this project for two years and helping so many young people. We are now in the process of seeking new funding to ensure it can continue.

Holiday Activities and Food (HAF)

This is a programme of centrally funded drama workshops during the school holidays, for children in receipt of free school meals.

We have run playschemes for 7-11 year-olds over the Easter, Summer, and Winter school holidays in the year. The activities are varied, and in addition to drama include Tai Chi, music, devising and nutrition. A key component of the project is a well-balanced hot lunch.

A nutritious hot lunch is prepared by a member of our team with the necessary food and hygiene certification.

There is an overlap between the attendees from BYT and the BYT Younger groups, as so many of these young people met the eligibility criteria. We have also been pleased with the number of children attending from asylumseeking and refugee backgrounds.

This is a government-funded programme. However, to include the enrichment element, we have supplemented funding from our reserves, which has enabled us to take the children to a professional show. This included ‘Hansel and Gretel’ at Shakespeare’s Globe over Christmas. We are also grateful for the support of St Vincent's Centre, Brixton, for the subsidised space rental.

FUNDERS:

The Journey Makers

Journey Makers is an Arts and Crafts programme for adult asylum seekers and refugees. This has increased in popularity, and we have very positive feedback from participants citing improved mental health, confidence and improved English language skills. It also provides a sharing of advice with people at different stages of the immigrant journey. Again, the project was supported by BCB reserves whilst we look for further funding. Our coordinator is a former asylum seeker whose son has attended our drama projects.

PLANS FOR 2025/26

We are delighted with the increased output from BYT as detailed in the project report. We are also grateful to Children in Need for their continued support for BYT, which allows the programme to flourish.

We are keen to build on our work with the refugee community within Lambeth and are actively developing projects that will improve integration and social cohesion in our area.

The charitable company is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The charitable company has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charitable company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.3 GOING CONCERN

Brixton Community Based Ltd has reported a deficit of £4,946 for the year.

The trustees are of the view that the immediate future of the charitable company for the next 12 months is secure and that on this basis the charity is a going concern.

1.4 CHARITABLE FUNDS

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Designated funds comprise funds which have been set aside at the discretion of the trustees for specific purposes. The purposes and uses of the designated funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

1.5 INCOME

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the charity is legally entitled to the income after any performance conditions have been met, the amount can be measured reliably, and it is probable that the income will be received.

Donations and legacies, including core grants, sponsorship and gifts, are included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable. Grants, where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.

Incoming resources from charitable activities include income from performance fees received under contract. Grant income included in this category provided funding to support performance activities, touring or workshop projects and is recognised where there is entitlement, certainty of receipt, and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.

Page 10

BRIXTON COMMUNITY BASED LTD NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

1.5 INCOME (CONTINUED)

Investment income is included when receivable.

Grants received for specific purposes are treated as restricted funds. Income is deferred when performance fees or grants are received in advance of the performance or event to which they relate.

1.6 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.

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.

1.7 EXPENDITURE

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payments to third parties, it is probable that the settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. It is categorised under the following headings:

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the staging of its projects and performances. It includes both costs allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

1.8 TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS

Items costing in excess of £500 are capitalised. Tangible fixed assets are shown at historical cost.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Fixtures and equipment 33% straight line

1.9 CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.10 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.

1.11 TAXATION

The charitable company is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part II Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

Page 11

BRIXTON COMMUNITY BASED LTD NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

1.12 DEBTORS

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid. Accrued income is measured at the amount due to be received.

1.13 CREDITORS

Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in a transfer of funds to a third party, and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably.

Other creditors and accruals recognised at their settlement amount due.

2 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

In the application of the charitable company’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised, where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
