Report of the Board of Trustees for the year ended 31[st] March 2021

Objectives and Activities
Organisational Information
PhotoVoice is an award-winning international charity which works to bring about positive social change through participatory photography projects. We build skills in underrepresented and at-risk communities to use photography as a tool for communication, self-expression and advocacy.
PhotoVoice’s pioneering projects have amplified the voices of refugees, people who are blind and partially sighted, street children, landless indigenous tribes, people living with HIV/AIDS, young people who have been the subject of sexual exploitation, former prisoners and those with differing requirements for inclusion.
PhotoVoice always works in partnership with local community organisations and other international or UK based organisations.
Charitable Objects
The Charity’s objects are to advance education and community development in the UK and internationally, using participatory photography methods and training in photography, communication and advocacy skills. This enables the participating individuals and communities to express themselves, raise public awareness of the issues and experiences they encounter, and help them to improve their quality of life. The Charity runs training courses and advises other charities, groups and institutions carrying out development projects in the use of photography to advance their own programmes and activities.
Vision
PhotoVoice’s vision is for a world in which no one is denied the opportunity to speak out and be heard.
Mission
PhotoVoice’s mission is to build skills within disadvantaged and marginalised communities. To achieve this, we utilise innovative participatory photography and digital storytelling methods. These skills enable individuals to represent themselves and create tools for advocacy and communication. Through this, and through developing partnerships, we deliver positive social change.
Public Benefit Statement
The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 4 of the Charities Act 2006 to have due regard to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit, ‘charities and public benefit’.
PhotoVoice’s charitable purpose is enshrined in its objects - the education and training of disadvantaged people throughout the world in the field of photography. The Trustees ensure that this is carried out for the public benefit by delivering programmes and services that are of value to the participants of the projects. The participants are members of the public known to and/or identified by Partner organisations (including NGO’s, Local Authorities, Aid Agencies) with whom and for whom PhotoVoice develops the projects. The partners have the specialised working knowledge of the target groups (for example, refugees, vulnerable youth, people with disabilities) and these partnerships ensure that PhotoVoice’s activities reach the right recipients and thus fulfil the charity’s core objectives.

Achievements and Performance
Key Aims
-
Work with underrepresented groups using participatory photographic methods which enable selfexpression and development, raise awareness, and provide tools for advocacy
-
Champion the appropriate use of participatory photography by international development and local grassroots organisations by promoting knowledge sharing, setting standards, providing best practices, training and related consultancy services
-
Promote the images and words produced in participatory photography projects through targeted newsletters, publications, events, and exhibitions, as well as traditional mass media and new media to raise awareness on the perspectives of communities and individuals
Performance against plan
PhotoVoice focused on three key goals in 2020-21:
-
Continue to promote and champion longer term engagement programmes for communities, encouraging social change
-
Expand and improve its education and engagement programmes, working with different partners and delivering high quality training courses
-
Use its new office space to develop a timetable of external engagement events, including exhibitions, courses, and talks, where possible given the emergence of the coronavirus pandemic.
Key achievements during the year
-
The impact of Covid-19 on PhotoVoice’s operations had significant consequences on its planned activities, with opportunities for workshop delivery and travel severely hindered. The team was able to design and deliver a new bespoke training and projects platform, called PhotoVoice Connect. This enabled PhotoVoice to deliver new engagement activities throughout the year, and offered consistency for its existing programmes.
-
In 2021, PhotoVoice relocated offices to a new sole-occupancy premises in Shoreditch, having relocated from its office in Whitechapel. This provides a multi-use gallery and training space, which will be the cornerstone of PhotoVoice’s future external engagement activities.
-
Care Leavers in Focus – one of PhotoVoice’s largest programmes, was able to continue despite the challenges presented by the impact of Covid-19. Participants and partners all remained engaged throughout, and while the project experienced significant delays, amendments were made to ensure it was able to work towards the development of a new resource, due for launch in 2021.
Future plans
PhotoVoice will focus on three key goals in 2021-22:
-
Develop and implement a new strategic plan to cover a three year period, to establish a future focus which strengthens PhotoVoice’s role as expert contributor to discussions and projects utilising ethical photography for social change.
-
Continue to strengthen the ways in which we engage with supporters, participants, and training attendees through a combination of online opportunity and in person activity
-
Develop a programme of projects and opportunities which continue to develop PhotoVoice’s methodology, addressing the opportunities and challenges which have emerged as a result of Covid19
5
Projects During the Year
UK Projects in 2020-21
-
Care Leavers in Focus
-
A multi year project funded by the Esmee Fairburn Foundation, working with young people in the care system across England and Wales. The project will culminate in a new resource to provide information for young people, and advocate for greater service user involvement in designing local services.

Financial Review
Funders
PhotoVoice extends its thanks to all our funders as well as partner organisations, project volunteers and support staff, donors and PhotoVoice members, including:
-
The Esmee Fairbairn Foundation
-
Jocarno Fund
-
The King Baudouin Foundation
-
Reed Smith
Financial Review
In 2019-20, PhotoVoice’s income decreased from £228, 080 in 2019-20 to £219,821 in 2020-21– a decrease of 1%. Its outgoings decreased from £216,645 in 2019-20 to £186,587 in 2020-21 – a decrease of 14%.
This results in a carried forward balance of £104,498 of which £36,380 is restricted, and £61,117 is unrestricted. This is a stronger financial position than expected given the context of the global pandemic.
However, the Trustees expect the financial climate for PhotoVoice – like many organisations - to continue to be challenging throughout 2021/22, particularly as a result of some of the financial support mechanisms available to charities and small organisations due to close. PhotoVoice’s emphasis will be on establishing long term projects and funding streams, building up its reserves, and operating on the basis of expenditure remaining below income. The impact of the coronavirus pandemic remains likely to have significant repercussions for PhotoVoice’s ability to deliver projects, particularly international programmes.

Statement of Responsibilities of the Trustees
The Trustees, who are also directors of PhotoVoice for the purposes of company law, are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (UKGAAP). Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2011, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. The Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Audit Exemption
The Directors have decided to take advantage of the audit exemption provisions of the Companies Act 2006. However, under the provisions of section 145 of the Charities Act 2011, Aamer Shehzad, Accountability Europe Limited, Omnibus Workspace, 39-41 North Road, London. N7 9DP.

Independent Examiners’ Report to The Trustees of PhotoVoice for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of PhotoVoice for the year ended 31 March 2021 which are set out on pages 14 to 28
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:

accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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
-
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.

DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES IN THE PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR MARCH 2021
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) confirm that for the year ended 31 March 2021.
-
the company was entitled to exemption from audit under section 477 of the Companies Act 2006, and
-
members have not required the company to obtain an audit of Its accounts for the year in question in accordance with section 476 of the Act. However, in accordance with section 44 of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the accounts have been examined by an independent examiner whose report appears on page 14.
The trustees acknowledge their responsibilities for ensuring that the charity keeps accounting records which comply with section 386 of the Act and for preparing financial statements which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company as at the end of the end of the financial year and of its incoming resources and application with the requirements of sections 394 and 395 and which otherwise comply with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 relating to financial statements, so far as applicable to the company.
16
Comparative figures for the previous year by fund type are shown in Note 13.
The Notes on pages 18 to 28 form an integral part of these accounts.
These accounts, which have been prepared in accordance with the provisions in the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies, were approved by the trustees on 14th December 2021 and signed on their behalf by:
Russell Watkins, Chair of Trustees
Company registration number: 3938488

PHOTOVOICE Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 March 2021
-
Accounting Policies
-
a) The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with 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 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
-
b) Reconciliation with previous Generally Accepted Accounting Practice
In preparing the accounts, the trustees have considered whether in applying the accounting policies required by FRS102 and the Charities SORP FRS 102 the restatement of comparative items was required.
- c) Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis
The trustees have prepared and considered trading forecasts and cash flow requirements for a period of 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements and have concluded that it is appropriate to prepare these financial statements on the going concern basis.
Governance costs include the corporate management, strategic planning, restructuring and one-off consultancy to develop the organisation, as well as independent examination and legal costs.
- d) Income
All income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the charitable company is legally entitled to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amounts can be measured reliably.
Voluntary income is received by way of donations and gifts and is included in full in the statement of financial activities when receivable. Donated services and facilities are recognized as an incoming resource at the estimated value to the charity of the service or facility received.
On receipt, donated professional services and facilities (Gifts in kind) are recognised based on 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 item is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt. Volunteer time is not included in the financial statements.
Investment income is recognised on a receivable basis.
Income from commercial trading activities is recognised as earned (as the related goods and services are provided).
Grants received in advance are deferred at the year end to when the grant entitlement becomes unconditional
- e) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT
18
Resources expended are recognised in the period in which they are incurred. Resources expended include attributable VAT which cannot be recovered. Resources expended are allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly to that activity. However, the cost of overall direction and administration of each activity, comprising the salary and overhead costs of the central function, is apportioned by an estimate of the amount attributable to each activity, based on the number of staff members as per note 6.
Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows:
Computer equipment and software 3yrs (straight line)
Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £2,000. Depreciation costs are allocated to activities on the basis of the use of the related assets in those activities. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use.
Rentals payable under operating leases, where substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership remain with the lessor, are charged to the statement of financial activities in the year in which they fall due
f) Funds structure
The charitable company has a number of restricted funds to account for situations where a donor requires that a donation must be spent on a particular purpose or where funds have been raised for a specific purpose. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund together with a fair allocation of management and support costs.
g) Allocation of support costs
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs which support the charities activities. These costs have been allocated between cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities. These costs are broken down into more detail in Note 4.
Where expenditure on a project or programme area exceeds the restricted funds available for that project or area, then the 'overspend' is met by transfers from unrestricted funds during the year. Should sufficient appropriate restricted funds subsequently become available these transfers will be reclaimed.
All other funds are unrestricted funds, which the trustees are free to use for any purpose in furtherance of the charitable objects. Unrestricted funds include designated funds where the trustees, at their discretion, have earmarked a fund for a specific purpose.
The costs of generating funds relate to the costs incurred by the charitable company in raising funds for the charitable work.
h) Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
- i) Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
- j) Creditors and provisions
19
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
-
k) Analysis of staff costs, trustee remuneration and expenses
-
l) Staff costs comprise:
Wages and salaries Social Security costs Pension contributions Redundancy Costs
The average number of employees (including casual and part time staff) during the year was as follows: 3.6
There are no employees whose emoluments as defined for taxation purposes amounted to over £60,000
During the year there were no payments made to the trustees for remuneration or expenses.
-
m) Pension
-
All staff are enrolled in a pension scheme with Nest.
-
n) Foreign Currency Translation
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the accounting date. Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. All differences are taken to the statement of financial activities.
