Protein Dance Report of the Trustees

For the year ended 31 March 2023

The Trustees, who are also directors for the purposes of company law, have pleasure in presenting their report and the financial statements for the charitable company for the year ended 31 March 2023, another year in which Protein demonstrated its value to the communities it serves and the dance sector more widely.

The Trustees have adopted the provisions of 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 the Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The company's Charitable Objectives are to promote, maintain, improve and advance the education and appreciation of the public in dance and other Arts including, drama, mime, film, singing and music.

OVERVIEW

Protein has over 25 years' experience of creating high quality, innovative dance theatre work in both professional and community settings and is recognised as a ground-breaking sector advocate.

Our mission is to connect people and everyday life through dance, both on and off stage, provide dance experiences that everyone can be moved by, amplify the voices which are least heard in mainstream culture and to remain relevant, proactive and humble.

In 2022-23 our popular family show The Little Prince toured around the UK once again, including to rural venues as part of the Rural Touring Dance Initiative. En Route, our promenade production created during the pandemic, was revived and further developed for Greenwich and Docklands International Festival as En Route to Common Ground, featuring contributions from local artists and 3 local community groups.

Our There and Here co-created dance and music project with adult refugees, migrants and asylum seekers culminated in performances for invited audience at The Place theatre and was celebrated through a special sharing of the documentary film about the project at Woolwich Works during Refugee Week.

A highlight of the year came at The Stage Awards in January 2023 when There and Here won the award for Community Project of the Year.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS

In the 2023-24 year the company aims to:

Statement on public benefit

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Significant activities

PRODUCTIONS:

En Route to Common Ground

A development of the original En Route from 2021, Protein was commissioned by Greenwich and Docklands International Festival to present a new iteration, En Route to Common Ground, for the 2022 festival.

En Route is a unique promenade experience, journeying from Woolwich Common, through Woolwich Town Centre down to the river at Royal Arsenal Riverside. Over a 3-hour period covering 4.5km the audience enjoy dance, specially commissioned live music and storytelling.

Building on the success of the original production, the cast of En Route to Common Ground was expanded to include two local artists, one on Kora and drum and one performing a traditional Nigerian song. Additionally, community performers were incorporated which was not possible in 2021 due to the pandemic restrictions. This included the Some Voices Choir, who run a regular group at Woolwich Works, adults from past Protein projects, including refugees and asylum seekers from the Spring 2022 There and Here project and participants from the 2021 Open Fridays sessions, and young people from the Tramshed.

En Route to Common Ground was experienced by a total audience of around 6,000 people.

'Fun and exciting, bringing the community together!' - Audience member

The Little Prince

The Little Prince is Protein's family show based on the iconic story by Antoine de Saint-Exupery.

In Spring 2023 the main stage version of the show toured nationally, giving 14 performances in 8 venues. We then switched to the adapted version for rural and smaller venues for a 2-week rural tour supported by the Rural Touring Dance Initiative. This involved 8 performances (of which 4 were schools performances) at 7 different rural venues in Somerset, Wales, Norfolk and Chichester, as well as 4 school workshops.

The tour culminated at our home of Woolwich Works in Royal Borough of Greenwich where we performed the smaller version of the show, giving 3 free schools performances and 3 public shows, all of which sold out. Ahead of the run in Woolwich, the company delivered 12 primary school workshops which engaged 650 young people living in the Borough.

The Little Prince was experienced by almost 3,000 children and their grown ups.

'Thoroughly entertaining. Great choreography, humorous, thought provoking and poignant' - Audience member

'Picture This' exhibition at The Lowry

Protein's production of The Little Prince featured in an exhibition at The Lowry in Salford from July to October. The exhibition looked at six popular children's books that have a strong visual identity on the page and have also been vividly brought to life on stage. Protein loaned costumes and prop pieces as well as the original costume design drawings by designer Yann Seabra.

PARTICIPATION:

Refugees, Migrants and Asylum seekers

Our Spring 2023 co-created dance and music project There and Here culminated in two performances at The Place theatre in London to a large and enthusiastic crowd, mixing family, friends, industry guests and partner organisations.

Led by Luca Silvestrini with 2 dance artists, a musician, and our work placement student from Northern School for Contemporary Dance the participants came together every weekday over a three and a half week period to share stories, sing, dance and create movement as well as share a hot lunch, which was provided. A contribution to travel expenses and childcare costs was also given to participants.

The project was delivered in partnership with The Place with funding from the Rebecca Dykes Foundation. The Islington Centre for Refugees and Migrants also supported the project with volunteers who assisted participants to travel to The Place to attend taster workshops and the first few days of the project.

We also connected with the British Red Cross and Care4Calais, both of whom brought participants to the project and supported their participation.

I am very happy to be with you for a while and I learned a lot from you. This was a very successful and excellent project. - Participant

It's beautiful to see high quality multi-generational participatory performance, whilst poignantly humanising refugee people and celebrating a multitude of cultures. - Audience Member

Following the project, we continued to deliver weekly dance workshops at the Islington Centre for Refugees and Migrants through to the summer. Thanks to funding from The Place we able to continue the sessions in Autumn 2022 and Spring 2023 and attendance numbers steadily increased to an average of 25 people participating each week, including families and children, elders, wheelchair users and seated participants.

We were delighted to be invited to present an adapted, shorter version of There and Here at the Islington Centre for Refugees and Migrant's 25th anniversary celebration which took place at the Amnesty International building in November. Members of the original cast rehearsed alongside newcomers to adapt the piece at weekly rehearsals in the Autumn.

HOST

In May Luca led workshops on 'Dance on Location' and participated in a 'Conversations on Dance & Age' artist panel as part of HOST in Ipswich. HOST is a celebration of dance and age organised by Dance East and Encore East, which brought together older dancers with artists, practitioners and choreographers to dance and talk in a programme of workshops, presentations, discussions and performances. Luca's sessions, delivered to 35 dancers, explored the implications and opportunities when creating and performing dance outside the conventional theatre frame.

ARTIST DEVELOPMENT:

Northern School of Contemporary Dance placement students

The 2021-22 placement student finished their time with the company in May, having toured with The Little Prince, co-led the refugee project, taught children's workshops and performed at the opening of Woolwich Works.

A new placement student joined Protein for the 22-23 year in August, going straight into the cast of En Route to Common Ground. They also went on to tour with The Little Prince and teach workshops.

People Dancing in the Summer

Luca led an all-day professional development opportunity on 'People, Places and Unusual Spaces' in Leicester in July as part of the People Dancing summer school.

Embrace

Embrace is Protein's ongoing professional development programme and includes practical and reflective work that allows space for sharing and discourse around working in or practising dance today.

In November 2022 we convened an iteration of Embrace titled Navigating Change. Life and Business coach June Gamble worked with Protein to deliver zoom sessions for artists from the sector and the Protein staff team.

Corso per DanzEducatore in Bologna

In early January, Luca was once again invited to lead a three-day intensive on Community Dance Practice at Mousike's Corso per DanzEducatore in Bologna, Italy. Luca is a long-term course leader of this two-year course for dance practitioners coming from all over Italy and his module is one of the highlights of the programme.

ROYAL BOROUGH OF GREENWICH/WOOLWICH WORKS:

As well as En Route to Common Ground and the performances and engagement activity for The Little Prince Protein delivered the following activity in the borough.

The Queen's Platinum Jubilee Weekend

Protein was involved with a number of celebration events over the Queen's Jubilee weekend.

On Thursday 2 June we took part in the Together 22 event in Charlton Park where we had a stall in the 'Community Village'. On Saturday 4 June we ran free family dance workshops for children and their grownups at Woolwich Works to explore and make dance together. And on Sunday 5 June Protein joined a street party outside the Woolwich Common Community Centre together with Taru Arts, a local carnival organisation, leading dance through seven decades of the Queen's reign, reaching 300 local people.

Woolwich Common Community Centre Opening

We were proud to be asked to perform at the opening of the new Woolwich Common Community Centre building on 8 June. Eryck Brahmania performed a solo from Border Tales.

Refugee Week 2022

For Refugee Week in June we held a number of events celebrating the contributions, creativity and resilience of refugees and people seeking sanctuary.

On Tuesday 21 June we joined the Lewisham Refugee and Migrant Network Migrant Hub at Woolwich Common Community Centre where we led a dance workshop.

On Thursday 23 June Luca and Caron led a Zoom workshop in association with People Dancing to enhance dance artists' confidence and skillset when inviting refugee communities to take part in dance projects.

The highlight of the week was There and Here - A Celebration on Saturday 25 June. This was a special event featuring the premiere of the documentary film about our performance project with refugees and asylum seekers earlier in the year. There were artist and refugee-led craft workshops, dance and music activities and a free buffet lunch. Representatives from Greenwich Borough of Sanctuary had a stall providing information and resources. We had 115 attendees including the Syrian Women's Dance Group, refugee families based in Greenwich and participants from Protein's project There and Here.

Dance through the Decades at Christmas Market

As part of the Royal Arsenal Christmas Market, organised by Berkeley Group and GCDA, Protein and Taru Arts returned to the project originally created and presented as part of the Queen's Jubilee. This festive edition of Dance through the Decades took place just outside Woolwich Works on Saturday 26 November with around 200 children and adults participating.

Young people in care workshops

Protein was commissioned by Greenwich Virtual School and Inclusive Services, who support Looked After children in the borough to deliver dance workshops as part of their weekly club. A group of the participants also attended a performance of The Little Prince at Woolwich Works

DIGITAL:

International Film Festivals

Protein's work continued to be featured at international film festivals. LOL (lots of love) featured in the Busan International Performing Arts Festival in Korea.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Significant events

Incoming resources for the year were £413,542. Total resources expended in the year were £387,648. This led to an in-year surplus of £25,894.

FUNDERS

The company's principal funders in the year were Arts Council England and Royal Borough of Greenwich. The project with refugees, migrants and asylum seekers was funded by the Rebecca Dykes Foundation (Princes Exchange Foundation), for which a restricted accrual of £11,119 was carried forwards from 2021-22. Funding of £1,410 was received from Trust for London as match funding for the crowdfunding campaign towards the refugee project.

The continued delivery of weekly dance sessions at the Islington Centre for Refugees and Migrants in Autumn 2022 and Spring 2023 was supported by The Place.

In summer 2022 Protein commissioned fundraising consultants Achates Philanthropy to work with the company on a funding review and a new fundraising strategy to support the diversification of funding streams going forwards.

OPERATIONAL CHANGES

In November 2022, Arts Council England (ACE) announced that it would not be continuing to fund Protein as a National Portfolio Organisation (NPO) for the period from 2023 to 2026. Transition Funding of £141,841, equivalent to 7 months of the previous NPO grant, has been secured from ACE to enable the company to develop and adapt to a new operating model.

From April to September 2023 Protein will undertake a period of organisational development, streamlining our structure and overheads and transitioning to a new operational model to embed sustainability going forwards. Staffing will be adapted to a more nimble, flexible model with the capacity of the core team scaled up and down with support from our existing pool of expert freelancers, according to the requirements of the programme.

A revised fundraising plan has been developed in collaboration with fundraising consultants and earned income will be increased through proactively seeking additional external commissions and engagements for the Artistic Director, building on the reputation Protein has established as the expert sharing learning around community participation through dance.

Reserves

The company's Reserves Policy is to maintain an unrestricted designated fund of £80,000 as working capital, which represents approximately three months' central costs and a modest contingency. This reserve is to aid cashflow and provide for an orderly wind-down in the event of an unexpected reduction in the funds raised.

At the year end, total reserves amounted to £169,863. The reserves include the Company's Core Cost Reserve (designated) of £80,000 and a Touring Reserve (designated) of £39,530. The net book value of the company's fixed assets at the year end was nil, and the company's free reserves at 31 March 2023 amounted to £50,333.

RISK MANAGEMENT

Protein regularly reviews its risk register in order to mitigate the risks which the company faces. The key risks currently being managed include funding, inflation and staff capacity.

Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The directors are confident that the group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence and meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future for a minimum of twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. The directors are continually reviewing their plans and forecasts and believe that the going concern basis is appropriate.

Protein Dance Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended 31 March 2023

1. Accounting Policies

Basis of accounting

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for investments which are included at market value and the revaluation of certain fixed assets and 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 the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), and the Companies Act 2006.

Protein Dance meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).

Going concern

The financial statements are prepared, on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention.

Incoming resources

All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when the Charity is entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:

Income and endowments

Voluntary income including donations, 'gifts, legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general nature is recognised when the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.

Donations and legacies

Donations and legacies are recognised on a receivable basis when receipt is probable and the amount can be reliably measured.

Resources expended

Liabilities are recognised as resources expended when there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the Charity to the expenditure:

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset's use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.

Charitable activities

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Governance costs

These include the costs attributable to the Charity's compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and Trustee's meetings and reimbursed expenses.

Taxation

As a registered charity, the company is exempt from income and corporation tax to the extent that its income and gains are applicable to charitable purposes only.
