education work 'My Journey My Birmingham,, focusing on the collection and aiming to deepen the thinking of
th8 children and explore some of the challenges and opportunities of migration to the UK in the latter parl of tha
20th Century. We also developed and delivered the 'Joufneys to Birmingham, Heritage Summer School in
August 2023 at the Midlands Arts Centre. The aim of the Summer School was to harness an interest in heritage
and explore migration using the lens of the Ern&st Dyche Photographic Collection. These activities marked the
culmination of this three year landmark projecl which has left a legacy both for the company in the form of
Sampad Associate Schools (see below) and the city, in a more accessible Dyche Archive Collection at the
Library of Birmingham.
Diwali 2023
This year, we collaborated with a diverse range of partners. including the University of Birmingham, B.'Music,
Network Rail, and the West Midlands Combined Authority (MCA), to celebrate Diwali across th8 city. Our
flagship event, Ujala, hosted at The Exchange in partnership with the University of Birmingham, was a vibrant
celebralion of community, unity, love, and light and included inleraclive workshops, poetry readings, storytelling,
dance and music perfomiances. In partnership with OPUS, we also brought Diwali to New Street Station. The
festivitie8 included a striking Yakshagana perfomiance. Bollywood dance from local groups, and a diverse range
of music performances, from garage-infused Bhangra to Indo-jazz piano. Additionally, in collaboration with the
West Midlands Combined Authority and the Indian Consulale. we curated the City's annual Diwali show.

and remembered those who lost their lives during this period of national Crisis. Sampad was commissioned to produce
an art work which captured the experiences of members of the South Asian communily. Local artist Tasawar Bashir
produced a soundscape from interviews he collected. logelher with oral histories which were gathered by spoken word
artisl Nafeesa Hamid and Sampad staff.
These memories were also added to the National Ar¢hive. meaning Ihe personal experiences of members of the South
Asian cornmunily were captured and stored for fulure generations alongside the experiences of those from the many
different communltles in England today.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
for the year ended 31 March 2024
- Creatlng the Workforce for the Future- Internshlps & Tralnee Producers
We recognise that disappointingly there continues to be an under representation of black and Asian people
working in the arts and heritage sectors. Sampad plays its part in developing this lalent for the sector as a whole
and so we continue to deliver opportunities to train young people wishing to start and develop a career in the
arts and heritage sectors. In 2023-24 we had 2 interns from University of Birmingham. In addilion, we secured
funding from Birmingham City Council Cultural Leadershp Funding Round foi two part lime Trainee Creative
Producefs who had the opportunity to lead on elements of BEDLAM. Sampad Associate Schools and our PRO
GATI programmes.
Dance Leaders Group
Sampad was invited to be a DLG Hub and host a Senior and Youth Ambassador in 2023-24. DLG is an open,
independent ne￿Ork of dance professionals and leaders across the West Midlands with a hunger to collaborate
and a commitment to inclusion and equality. We were delighted lo have Reena Tailor and Simran Sheemar work
with us on this project as the Ambassadors and to encourage th8 South Asian danc8 sector to engage with this
network.
Fundralslng actlvltles
Sampad continu8S te be part of Arts Council England's National Portfolio for the period of 2023-26 whlch gives
us a good foundation for our core costs. However, this year Birmingham City Council served a Section 114
Nolice, in effect meaning that their expenditure is higher than their income. Although we received our full grant
of £19. 731 for 2023-24, this was cul by 50Yo for 2024-25 and that from 2025-26 by 100%. This in particular
impacts our community and learning programmes and will require us to invest furth6r resource in fundraising in
order to bridge this gap but also to raise further funds for our ambilious plans for the future.
Of the back of this disappointing news however, we ended the year with a large grant award from the Inclusive
Communities Fund for our BEDLAM partnership project. Together wilh The Birmingham REP, Midland3 Arts
Centie and Red Earth Collective, we were awarded £196. 180. (See below for Future Plans).
BEDLAM
The BEDLAM project from 2022-23 culminated in May 2023 through an exhibition at Midlands Arts Contre which
also featured work by our BEDLAM Partners The Birmingham REP, MAC and Red Earth Collective. The
exhibition attracted audiences in excess of 43,000. The exhibilion featured embroidery and woven work, hand
made and painted pottery. print making and photography created by participants taking part in creative
workshops led by professional artists in our Sparkhill and Chelmsley Wood Wellbeing Hubs. The project was
funded & supported by Birmingham & Solihull Mental Health Foundation Trust.
International
Sampad continued its relationship wilh Serendipity Festival, Goa (India) to commission a new work Damaru for
presentation at the Festival and in Kolkata in December 2023. This time we worked with FABRIC as a co-
commissioner. Damaru brought two exciling young dancers logelher - Shyam Dattani and Nilava Sen under
the mentorship and guidance of Morag Deyes and Tanushree Shankar and musicians Shadow & Light to
explore human relationships and interplay be￿een creation and destruction. silence and sound, allraction and
aggression.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserdes policy
The Sampad Board has considered the guidance published by the Charity Commission in r88P8Ct to reserves
and feel it prudent to maintain a level of reserves both to support the ongoing activities of the charitable
company and Io establish a buffer against any d8crease in income. Th8 Board has therefore set a policy thal the
reserves target should be 9 month5 of expenditure. Due to the long term uncertainties over funding
requirements, the organisation looks to hold this level of reserves to enable the organisalion to dynamically
manage any period of funding shortfall whilst delivering core acttviti8s and outcomes.
The current reserves target is £319.000. Unrestricted reserves are currently £498.842 and therefore the
Trustees have committed to spend £179,842 to bring the reserves in line with the policy. The Sampad Board has
set aside designated funds of £179,842 (2023.. £170,804) (note 16) towards specific expenditure to sustain and
develop Sampad's business aclivities over the nexi 3 years.
FUTURE PLANS
BEDLAM 2024 From April - December, Sampad and fellow BEDLAM partners The Birmingham Rep.
Midlands Arts Centre anrj Red Earth Collective will run a comprehensive community programme engaging local
residents in arts and wellbeing activities. This will culminate in the BEDLAM Showcase events in November
2024 with an accompanying exhibition.
Wa will continue to build on Ihe strong foundations lamj by the first year of Sampad Associate Schools through
building connections with new schools, training artists to work in school settings and running a Summer School
programme.
Our performance programme will seek to thrill. delight and educate audiences across a range of venues and In
partnership with other organisations across the region. Recognising the challenges facing this city and the arts
sector as a whole, we look forward to developing new partnerships lo reach different audiences in different
spaces.
Continue lo work with partners lo programme a range of events for audience across the city and beyond
including B.Music, Sandwell Hospital, Solihull Borough Council and Birmingham Conservatoire,

that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an
audit conducted in accordance with ISAS {UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Mi5Statements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they
could reasonably be expected to influence ihe economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial
statements.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of d8lecting irregulaflties. including fraud is detailed below-
Enquiring of management and employees. including obtaining and reviewing supporting documentation,
concerning the charity's policies and procedures relating to'.-
Identifying, evaluating. and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any
instances of non-compliance.
Detecling and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they were aware of any actual. suspected, or
alleged fraud and.
The internal controls established lo mitigate risk relating to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations.
We identified areas of law and regulation that could reasonably be expected lo have a material effect on the
financial statements from our general commercial and sector experience, discussions with management (as
required by auditing standards) and discussed with manag8m8nt the policies and procedures regarding
compliance with laws and iegulations.
All identified laws and regulations were communicated throughout the audit team, and they remained alert to any
ndicalions of non-compliance throughout the audit.
The mosl significant Gonsiderations for the charitable company were as follows:_
The Charily is subject to laws and regulations that affect the financial statements which include financial
reporting legislation (namely The Companies Act 2006), taxation legislation and the Charities Act. We assess8d
the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our audit procedures concerning items
recorded in the financial statements.
The charity is also subject to other operational laws and regulations where the consequences of non-
compliance could have material effect on the amounts or disclosures in the financial statements through
imposing fines or withdrawal of funding contracts. Areas where this would have an effect include health and
safety, Bribery Act 2010. employment law, data protections and child protection legislation (DBS checks for slaff
and volunteers).
Auditing standards limit Ihe audit procedures to identifying non4ompliance of these laws and regulations to
enquiry of management and inspection of regulalory and legal correspondence, rf there is any. Therefore, if a
breach of operational regulations is not disclosed to us or evident from relevant correspondence, and audit will
not detect the breach.
To idenlify risk of material misstatement due to fraud, we carried out discussions amongst the audit team to
assess areas where and how fraud might occur in the financial statements and any potential indicators. The
following areas were idents'fied :_
Management override of controls through the posling of inappropriate accounting entries or journals
We do not believe Iheie is a fraud risk relating the revenue recognitK)n as the revenue is straightforward, with
limited opportunity for manipulation.
We did not identify any additional fraud risks.
We tesled the appropriateness of accounting journals and other adjustments made in the accounls preparalion
based on a risk crileria.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
SAMPAD (SOUTH ASIAN ARTS DEVELOPMENT)
Owing to the inherent limitation of the audit . there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have delected some
material misstatements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with
auditing standards. For example, the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulation is from the
events and transaction reflected in the financial statement, the 18ss likely in the inherently limited procedure
required by auditing standards would identify it. In addition. as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of
non-detection of fraud, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the
override of internal controls. Our audit procedures are designed to detect material missiatement. We are not
responsible for preventing non-compliance or fraud and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance wilh all
laws and regulations.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial
Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uklauditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report
of the Independent Audilors.
Use of our report
This reporl is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body. in accordanc8 With Chapter 3 of
Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable
company's members those matters we are required to state lo them in an auditors, report and for no other
purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyon6 Othèr than
the charitabl8 company and Ihe charitable company's members as a body. for our audit work, for this report, or
for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the year ended 31 March 2024
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charitable company. which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102. have
been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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),, Financial Reporting Standard 102 'Th8 Financial Reporting Standard
applicable in Ihe UK and Republic of Ireland, and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have
been prepared under the historical cost convention.
Sampad (South Asian Arts Development) meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaclion valLJe unless othe￿iSe stated
in the relevant accounting policy.
Golng Concèrn
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no
material uncertainties exist. The truslees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level
of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted
income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able lo continue as a
going concern.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement lo the
funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
No amount is included in the financial statements for volunteer time in line with the SORP (FRS 102).
Voluntary income by way of grants, donations and gifts is included in full in the Statement of Financial
Activities when receivable and when the amounts are known with certainty and are measurable. Grants.
where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charilable company,
are recognised when it becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.
Incoming resources from grants, where related to performance and specific deliverables, are accounted
for as Ihe charitable company earns the right to consideration by ils performan￿. Where income is
received in advance of performance il is treated as deferred income and included within creditors.
Expendllure
Liabilities are recognised a5 expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation commilting
the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in
settlemenl and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an
accrua15 basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category.
Where cosls cannot be directly attributed to parlicular headings they have been allocated to activities on
a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charitable company in the d81ivery of its
aclivities and services for its beneficiaries.
Governance costs include those costs associaled with meeting the constitutional and statutory
requirements of the charitable company and include audil fees and costs linked to the slrategic
management of the charitable company.

Tanglble flxod a88et8
Tangible fixed assets costing £350 or more are capilalised and recognised wh8n futurè economic
benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible
fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulaled depreciation and any accumulated impairment
losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be
included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to a51ocate the cost of tangible fixed assets 18SS their residual value over
their eslimaled useful lives.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis..
