## **Objectives and activities (continued)** 

## **The charity's main activities** 

Hive offers adult education classes in various arts and crafts activities. We also provide a range of activities for specific communities and clients both at the workshop and across Bradford District. We offer access to our facilities, creative equipment and support to individuals and volunteers looking to develop their skills and confidence. 

## **Public benefit statement** 

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular the advancement of education and the provision of facilities for recreation or other leisure time occupation. Hive works to promote the inclusion of: 

- vulnerable and disadvantaged children and young people, young offenders and those at risk of offending, through learning, skills-building, creative opportunities and community projects. 

- disadvantaged adults, particularly providing steps back into employment through volunteering, skillsbuilding and self-confidence. 

- vulnerable and disadvantaged older people, through providing activities, social links and combatting loneliness. 

Hive supports continuing life-long learning through a programme of creative adult learning, creative outreach courses, arts and health activities and free drop-in access. Hive also supports local economy and community regeneration through involvement in local events, working in and fostering partnership, creating employment and volunteering opportunities, local procurement and access to workshop facilities. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

Hive has been very busy this year. As well as delivering our usual range of courses and projects, we have been working with the Kirkgate Centre on developing the Shipley Sustainable Community Hub, a project to refurbish and revitalise the building which both organisations have occupied for the last 40 years. 

The building, an old school built in the 1800s, has not had any significant work done on it since the 1970s and is in need of structural, electrical, and environmental improvement. Hive and Kirkgate Centre have set up the Old School Building Company (OSBC - formerly known as the Community Arts Umbrella) to oversee the project and manage and maintain the building in future. The OSBC are completing a Community Asset Transfer of the building from Bradford Council and will then sublease the building to Hive and Kirkgate Centre. The OSBC has been awarded £2.51million from the Shipley Towns Fund for the renovation work, and are developing a plan for the project with architects, lawyers and members of both tenant organisations. 

This work has taken up a lot of time for both organisations, and we would particularly like to thank former Chair of Trustees Steve Mackay, who was involved in the project from the start and put in around seven years to get us to this point, delaying his retirement from the board for three years. Karen Steenson has also been involved since the start and continues to represent Hive at OSBC meetings. We thank her for her continuing contribution to one of the largest projects Hive has undertaken. Susan Bale replaced Steve as Chair of the Hive board and on the OSBC, and has been a real asset in the partnership working between the two organisations. 

Several of our longer-term project workers left during this period, including Claire Rookes, Jane McDonald and Luke Waltham, although they continue to work for us on an occasional basis in a freelance capacity. 

Our regular full programme of courses continued this year and included ceramics, stained glass, painting and drawing and printmaking. We also developed some new courses including Collage and Mixed Media, Creative Journalling, Gelli Printing and Dress-making. 

As we are going to be moving out of our building for a year during the renovations, we have been arranging regular visits to our new venues. St Peter's Church are being wonderful in helping us to relocate to their premises, whilst Bradford College and Shipley Men's Shed are housing our Pottery and Woodwork provision. 

Our regular supported drop-ins continued to be delivered during this period to 350 people. These are free sessions to improve wellbeing and include Woodwork Wednesdays, Drop in and Draw, and Chat and Craft. These sessions are really popular as an introduction to Hive and are used as referral opportunities for mental health partners.

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2023 

## **Achievements and performance (continued)** 

After a period of delivering activities online, Thrive re-established face-to-face sessions with Friday Thrive, a regular creative programme delivered at Hive where participants become volunteers and support the sessions after a period of time. These sessions are valuable for individuals leaving statutory health care to actively engage with the wider community, increasing wellbeing. The project is popular with healthcare providers, in particular Lynfield Mount Hospital. 

We worked with asylum seekers and refugees from Afghanistan between April and July 2022. The project at Oasis Academy Community Hub, based around cultural similarities and collaborations, helped participants to integrate into the local community. Participants explored art forms from another culture, looking for similarities, and incorporate creative techniques from their own culture. We worked with 16 participants and their extended families, also focussing on ESOL teaching (English for speakers of other languages), with participants learning new vocabulary specific to the activities and Bradford City. The project helped to remove stigma towards asylum seekers by giving individuals a voice, informed participants of opportunities across the district, and provided a safe environment for participants to focus on their mental wellbeing. 

In summer 2022 we delivered creative activities to residents of Manningham (BD9) for a full day of celebrations at the Dubrovnik Hotel in honour of the Queen's Jubilee. Over 80 participants joined in the creative fun, including creating flags that represented their ethnic identity and nationality, allowing different community ethnic groups to interact in a positive and safe environment. 

We delivered creative sessions in different wards at Lynfield Mount, with a focus on colour. Each ward had an opportunity to experiment with clay to create self-portraits, pinch pots and hanging mobiles. All the work is now exhibited in the community café for visitors and patients to enjoy. 

Flourish, our project working with refugees and asylum seekers, had an exhibition of work at Bradford Industrial Museum in early 2022. Workshops were also held during Refugee Week exploring journeys and destinations using papercrafts and drawing techniques. Banners and wall hangings made by groups on the Flourish project were exhibited in Bradford’s 2025 Building in Centenary Square. Participants said about their work: 

"I was ashamed of my name but now I’m proud of who I am. The rest of the colours are to represent the beautiful colours of England in the spring and summer time." 

"My work looks like tears of crying for leaving my home country Moscow. Crossing the river by plane to the green of England." 

Our Together With Needle and Thread project focused on the Bradford connections of Louisa Pesel (18701947), born in Manningham, who worked with Belgian refugees and soldiers experiencing shellshock in the First World War (The Bradford Khaki Handicrafts Club). We partnered with Sharing Voices and a hotel housing refugees and asylum seekers, both in Manningham. The work of the Bradford Khaki Handicrafts Club was explored in detail and offered a way of reflecting on the armed forces community in the city and their experiences of returning to civilian life. The work produced on this project is currently begin developed into a book and we are running a session at the Great Get Together, a festival celebrating Refugee Week this year. 

Hive was 40 years old in 2022 and to celebrate we put on an event as part of Shipley Festival, attended by the Lord Mayor. The event had participatory workshops showcasing our current creative activities and projects, including a potters wheel experience, plant dyeing, needlefelting, Arabic calligraphy, creative activities for kids, as well as music, food and giant bubbles. We had over 30 volunteers involved and it was attended by around 350 people. 

A final highlight in the autumn of 2022 was a visit from noted potter and ceramic designer Keith Brymer Jones, who came to look at the studios and see some of the work produced by the potters from Hive. There was great excitement in the build up to this event and it was attended by 60 local potters. Keith also generously donated some clay to Hive, and we hope to see him again when we move back into our refurbished building in summer 2024.

## **Financial review** 

The net expenditure for the year was £22,632, including net expenditure of £16,017 on restricted funds and net expenditure of £6,615 on unrestricted funds. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The management committee of Hive has agreed to maintain reserve funds at sufficient levels in order to allow the smooth operation of the charity’s activities (in accordance with Charity Commission guidelines). Hive aims to hold free reserves (ie. unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets) of between 6 and 9 months (currently £96,534 - £144,800). In line with the Charities Commissions SORP 2005 Paragraph 55(a) Hive will include information about our reserves policy and the level of reserves held in its Annual Report. 

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £136,535 (2022: £139,826), within the range required by the reserves policy. 

## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities** 

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts 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 apply them consistently; 

observe the methods and principles in 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; 

prepare the accounts on a 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 to enable them to ensure that the financial accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

## Hive Bradford 

## Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Basis of accounting** 

These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by 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) and with the Charities Act 2011. 

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. 

There has been no change to the accounting policies since last year. 

## **Going concern** 

At the time of signing these accounts the charity has been impacted by the global COVID-19 virus. The trustees have reassessed the charity’s ability to continue for at least 12 months from the date  the accounts are approved and conclude that no material uncertainties exist that cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern. 

## **Incoming resources** 

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when the charity becomes entitled to the resources, it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. 

## **Grants and donations** 

Grants and donations are only included in the SOFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources. 

Where grants are related to performance and specific deliverables, they are accounted for as the charity earns the right to consideration by its performance. 

## **Expenditure and liabilities** 

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. 

Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out the resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty. 

## **Taxation** 

As a charity the organisation benefits from rates relief and is generally exempt from income tax and capital gains tax but not from VAT. Irrecoverable VAT is included in the cost of those items to which it relates. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets costing more than £1,200 are capitalised and included at cost including any incidental expenses of acquisition. Gifted assets are shown at the value to the charity on receipt. 

Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost on a straight line basis over their expected useful economic lives (3 years for computer equipment, 4 years for other equipment). 

## **Pensions** 

The charity operates a defined contribution scheme for the benefit of its employees. The costs of contributions are recognised in the year they are payable. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal. Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the accounts. 

## **Leases** 

Rents under operating leases are charged on a straight line basis over the lease term or to an earlier date if the lease can be determined without financial penalty.
