Pallant House Gallery Annual report and financial statements For the year ended 31 March 2025 Chairfs Statement l am delighted to present this Annual Report for 2024-25. a year in which over 70.000 people visited Pallant House Gallery in person. with many thousands more engaging online. This growth in reach, both physical and digital. underscores our national standing as a centre of curatorial excellence and public value. Our exhibitions programme this year was exceptional in both ambition and reception. The Shape of Thing5: Still Life in Britain and Dora Carrington= Beyond 81oomsbury attratted widespread critical acclaim. celebrated for their fresh scholarly insights and their capacity to shed new light on lesser- known corners of British art history. These exhibition5 were accompanied by fully illustrated catalogues, original research and a rich public programme- hallmark5 of the Gallerfs commitment to interpretation. education and engagement. In parallel, we reaffirmed our support for contemporary practice with commissions from Phoebe Cummings and Rana Begum. and a new presentation of work by Maggi Hambling. ensuring that historical and contemporary voices continue to speak to one another across our programme. The Gallery'5 nationally recognised Community Programme continued to flourish, reaching a wide range of participants from across the region. Demand has grown to the extent that we now hold waiting lists for several of our initiatives - clear testament to the social impact and reputational strength of this work. The programme plays a vital role in advancing the Gallerfs mission.. using art to foster belongin& wellbeingand creativitywithin ourcommunity. Schools remain 3 priorityfor us given the poor state of creative education in this country. Commercially. the restaurant and bookshop continue to contribute meaningfully to the organisation's sustainability. However, the strength of demand- partictslarly at peak times- has highlighted a broader challenge across our estate= we are close to capacity. Our Queen Anne buildin& though elegant and historically important. constrains our abilityto accommodatethe scaleof audiences and programming our vision demands. Most notably, it limits how we display our permanent collettion alongside temporary exhibitions. If we are to tell a coherent and compelling story of British art. this spatial constraint must be addressed in the year5 ahead. The Board and I have supported a significant strengthening of the Gallery's professional leadership through the appointment of senior colleagues in Development and Digital, and a restrurturing of the Curatorial and Visitor Services functions. These changes have already enhanced our organisational capacity and effectiveness. and we are grateful to the team for embracing them so energetically. However, these investments come against the backdrop of a material operating deficit. While historically the Gallery has benefited from generous bequests and one-off gifts. this model is not sustainable. It leaves the organisation vulnerable to short-temi shocks and hampers long-term planning. Our strategic focus now is to build a more resilient financial model. rooted in a multi-year approach to fundraising. more sophisticated systems and processes. and a sharpened commercial edge. This includes the revitalisation of our marketin& communications and audience engagement functions to grow and diversify income across all areas of activity. Pallant House Gallery is proud to be rooted in Chichester. and we are grateful to Chichester Oistrict Council for its ongoing support - most recently through extensive repairs and redecoration to Pallant House, the freehold of which it owns. The Gallery has also invested in environmental improvements, Page 4 of 43
Pallant House Gallery Annual report and financial statements For the year ended 31 March 2025 including UV film installation. roof repairs and upgrades to our kitchen facilities. In 2025, we will deliver further infrastructure enhancements with the installation of a new ground source heat pump and improved IT systems. supported by external grants. Unlike many peer institutions. the Gallery receives no regular funding from Arts Council England or Central Government. This places us in a uniquely exposed position- mainta•ning a nationally significant collection. presenting major exhibitions and delivering wide-reaching community programmes without the safety net of public subsidy. In this context. the role of individual donors. corporate supporters and our wider community becomes ever more critical. Supporting Pallant House Gallery is not simply about preserving a beautiful building or a prestigious programme, it is a commitment to the cultural, civic and educational life of our region. The Board and Executive are aligned in their priortties for the year ahead- to strengthen income generation, deepen audience engagement. and develop the estate and infrastrurture that will secure the Gallery's long-term future. In all of this. we are guided by a belief that access to great art should not be the preserve of capital cities or in5titution5 of scale. but something that can and must be made possible here - in the heart of Chichester- for all.

Pallant House Gallery Annual report and financial statements For the year ended 31 March 2025 Public Benefit Derived from our Activities Public Benefit Derived from our Artivities TheTrustee5 of the Gallery have paid regard tothe Charitycommission's published guidance on public benefit. They believe that people who have equitable access to the visual arts derive real benefit from the experience through the expansion of their creative ideas, prattice and understanding. The Gallery cultivates long-term engagement across all its programmes, contributing to lifelong learning, he31th and wellbeing and addressing the deficit in sLhuols. The Gallery provides the opportunity for people to gain a better understanding of the cultural and artistic make-up of our society and enhances their personal response to and enjoyment of creativity. Performance and Achievements During the Year Summary of Financial Results The Gallery delivered a surplus of £377k in the year {2023-24: surplus of £1.250kl. However. at an underlying level. the Gallery continues to incur operational deficits, with an operating deficit for the year of £421k12023-24- £238kl and £454k of net cash utilised for operating activities12023-24- £512kl. Whilst income increased by 3% to £2,364k during the year {excludinggifts of artwork and investment gains). costs increased by IO% to £2.785k. The Gallery made a strategic decision to seek new multi-year corporate partnership5 and is pleased to have Secured three Significant partnerships over the next three years as well as a £260k grant from Fidelity UK. Memberships of our Patrons and Friends. schemes also performed well. However, admission income was down on the previous year. The increase in costs partly refletts a conscious decision made by thetrustees to invest in staff and to commence long overdue projects but also fattors beyond our control such as increased national insurance and utility costs. and the absence of a rates rebate received in 2023-24 that was exceptional in nature. The Gallery's primary source of public fundin& an annual grant of £130k from Chichester Distrirt Council. has been confirmed {with annual inflationary increases) until March 2030. Capital Project In September 2024. the Gallery reinvigorated its consideration of a major capital development project that will expand and enhance its offer for audiences. Various strands of work were undertaken to inform the feasibility of this project. including a Collettions Measurement Programme and audience development research. A Masterplan will be developed following selection of the preferred option in the coming year. Page 7 of 43

However. costs also increased relatrve to the prior year due to external factors such as increased national insurance contributions, higher utility costs, and the absence of a rates rebate received in 2023-24 that was exceptional in nature.

There are numerous restricted funds which are listed by purpose later in the accounts. Each fund relates to a separately identifiable activity that has attratted its own funding from various donors with the proviso that their support is to be applied only to that projert. Normally the Gallery has agreed tofund any balancefrom its wider resources to ensure a successful outcome. These projects are usually short term. typically completed within a year. and taken together represent the essence of the Gallerfs core operation. Desi nated funds unrestricted Oesignated funds tomprise of artworks and buildings therefore by their nature. are illiquid. Donated artworks. recognised a5 heritage assets. constitute the majority of designated funds. with the remainder comprised of buildings which have been built or acquired through philanthropic giving. Trustees have reviewed the resep4es policy during the year. which was last arnended during 2017-18. and believe that it remains appropriate. The reserves policy is as follows". The Gallery should hold cash balances in unrestricted fvnds. of at least £200.(MJ) or, if greater. the cash projected to be required for its activities for the followin8 two months. This is currently achieved through holding liquid accounts within cash and investments. The endowment fund of £3(K).000 provided by the Friends in 2018-19 should only be held in readily reali5able investments so that it acts as a second layer of resep4e5 if required to meet unexpected adverse circumstances. The other endowment funds should continue to include in excess of £500,( of readily realisable investments that could be sold as a third layer of resen4es. whilst otherwise continuing to provide income for the core operation. This reserve5 policy was met during 2024-25 and up to the date of signing this report. atwhich point, £292k of unrestricted general funds were held. The policy continues to be reviewed annually, and the trustees have resolved that it should continue in force for a fvrther year. The trustees recognise that operating deficits are realistically unavoidable until higher levels of 5UStainable income can be secured, which in turn will mean it is likely that the Gallery will continue to draw on re5Èrves. Current forecasts to September 2026 show that deficit5 should be contained comfortably within the level of resev4es currently in place. Consequently, the trustees conclude that there are not any material uncertainties about the Gallerfs ability to remain a going contern in the foreseeable future. To improve the financial sustainability and resilience of the Gallery. a Three-year Plan is being developed which seeks to build upon income generating measures already started in 2025-26 and launch new initiatives which, it is hoped, will lead to a step change in income levels.

Pallant House Gallery Annual report and financial statements For the year ended 31 March 2025 Investment Policy and Objectives Under its Articles, the Gallery has the power to invest funds in the furtherance of its charitable objettives. The Gallerfs investment policy is to grow the endowment funds and generate a reliable income stream to help fund operations. This 'total returns, basis is based on a medium level of risk. Funds are invested over a 5-year term on a discretionary basis in a fund that has a strong ethical and sustainable ethos. The Galler<s endowment funds are invested in Sarasin & Partners Endowments Fund for charities. which is a global multi-asset CAIF unit trust that adopts responsible ESG standards. In the financial year ending 31 March 2025. the Gallerfs Portfolio. managed by Sarasin increased in value by just £141k, significantly lower than the £807k grovrth the previous year. Note that this capital grovrth is not realised. which mean5 that no cash was received. and the growth could be reversed. Sarasin distributed dividends of £304k, slightly down on the previous year. Principal Risks and Uncertainties The trustees have a duty to identifyand reviewthe risks to which the Gallery is exposed and to ensure appropriate measures are taken to mitigate risks to within the Gallery's risk tolerance. Thi5 is primarily achieved through risk management measures. recorded in the Gallervs risk register. The trustees have delegated the review of the Gallerfs risk register to the Finance. Audit and Risk Committee I'FARC'I. The risk register is regularly reviewed by the executive and was last reviewed by FARC in June 2025. following a risk workshop involving tru5tee5 and the executive. The risk register describes each risk and allocates likelihood and consequence scores. Measures are then identified which accept, transfer or limit the activity that has generated the identified risk. Examples of these measures are insurance (including the Government Indemnity Scheme) and an emergency artwork safvage priority list. This approach ensures that the Gallery manages risks to an acceptable level. Financial risks are managed and reviewed more regularly with quarterly FARC meetings to review the current and projected financials of the Gallery so that timely correttive artion can be instigated to minimise or avert any adverse impacts. The key risks to the Gallery are: Reduction in income- the Gallery no longer receives funding from Arts Council England and faces increasing competition for other sources of public funds. To deal with the challenging funding environment, the Gallery has diversified its income streams and focussed resources on applying to a wide range of trusts and foundations and seeking private philanthropic support and corporate partnerships. Insufficient storage space for the collection- the collection grows as artworks are generously bequeathed to the Gallery, assigned via the Acceptance in Lieu scheme and on occasion, acquired. To mitigate against the lack of storage. a rationalisation of the collection is ongoing to identify suitable off site storage options. Loss of key personnel - as a small organisation. each individual plays a significant role in the Gallerfs success and therefofe when stsff leave. there is a risk of loss of knowledge, as well Page 17 of 43
Pallant House Gallery Annual report and financial statements For the year ended 31 March 2025 as experience and expertise.

Pallant House Gallery Annual report and financial statements For the year ended 31 March 2025 Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objettive5 are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial 5taternents as a whole are free from material misstatement whether due to fraud or error. and to issue an auditorfs report 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 IUKI will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are Considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Irregularities. including fraud. are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities. outlined above, to detert material misstatements in respect of irregularities. including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud are set out below. Capability of the audit in detecting irregularities In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respert of irregularities. including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. our procedures included the following..

We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the charity operates in. focusing on those laws and regulations that had a material Èffect on the financial statements or that had a fundamental effect on the operations of the charity from our professional and sector experience. We communicated applicable laws and regulations throughout the audit team and remained alert to any indications of non<ompliance throughout the audit. We reviewed any reports made to regulators. We reviewed the financial statement disclosures and tested these to supportins documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations. We performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexperted relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud. Page 24 of 43

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leadingto a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliarnce with regulation. This risk increase5 the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transattions reflerted in the financial statements. as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurrin8 due to fraud rather than error. as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery. collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
