## **1. CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES** 

## **1.1 Vision and Mission** 

'I want to say that the Support Collective offers solace and support to many people who are feeling isolated and abandoned and possibly in moments of despair. Just through sharing and being listened to, it provides a relief for many. Whether those individual situations are similar or not, there's always something that's learnt and something that can be given. I might have some knowledge that may assist somebody else and that's a good feeling too, to know that you are able to help others. There's a lot of information and knowledge shared within the group, which is invaluable. Then of course you have E at the helm, who is such a discreet and gently guiding support. It's a very kindly collective.' Parent Carer 

'I just thought it looked absolutely amazing! What had tempted me first of all was seeing it on the news report.  I immediately thought, that looks amazing. I thought when I am in Hastings next here I will have a look in. 

I'm absolutely blown away by this! The idea that this is special needs people and it's helping them to get their feelings out. What an amazing job! Absolutely, completely, incredible! To think that these people can produce artwork like this is absolutely amazing! I was just saying to my husband that I like the idea that these could be bought as posters., This is wonderful. We're really, really enjoying it. 

It's totally important for people to look at this and to see what can be achieved. That's what's so amazing. With this, you just think, wow, this should be around the country! This needs to be taken elsewhere and it needs a great space. This is a really great space to have it. I love whoever thought about hanging it like this. Absolutely, excellent! I just think more people need to see it. It's just absolutely wonderful. How do I become involved in a project like this? I would love to become involved. Maybe there are more people like me, who might be fairly local, but might like to become involved.' Extract of visitor interview' Ignition Exhibition', Hastings Contemporary 

**Our vision** is a society that places value on the capabilities of people with complex needs, families and support workers, and invests in stable and sustainable support and care so they can realise their potential.  We believe that art can, through both its process and its final form, reflect and articulate ideas that transcend difference and reach people. 

**Our mission** is to change lives through art by exploring potential and promoting works by neurodivergent artists and makers through a wide range of projects, partnerships and exhibitions. Our programmes evolve through personalised, supported studio practice and radiate out to awareness raising, long-term collaborations, and skills development with social care and cultural partners. 

**Our work** aspires to excellence in contemporary visual art and is uniquely positioned to bridge the social care and cultural sectors in ways that promote sustainable relationships and bring people with complex needs into the heart of civic and cultural life. 

Founded in 1997, Project Art Works collaborates with people with complex support needs, families and circles of support. Our practice intersects art and care, responding to[1] neurodivergence, its gifts and impacts. Challenging paradigms of inclusion, it spans direct practical and holistic support, film, events, projects and exhibitions. 

> 1 **Neurodiversity** is a concept where neurological differences are recognized and respected as any other human variation.

**Project Art Works** 

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2022** 

Our studios provide the conditions for a broad range of autonomous and collaborative practices with neurodivergent artists, who take part on their own terms. Alongside the studios, the Support Collective brings together people who care for people with complex support needs where we share our experience and protect our rights through training, resources and advocacy. 

Our practice responds to the functional and ethical structures of care, respecting self-determination and privacy whilst working towards greater visibility and understanding of neurodiversity in culture. 

Project Art Works is an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation. Alongside neurodiverse artists and makers, the collective includes paid and unpaid caregivers who help each other to navigate and harness health and social care systems. 

## **Our approach** 

From our studio base in Hastings and in temporary studio set-ups during off-site projects and workshops, we facilitate personalised creative pathways for artists and makers. The studio spaces are without hierarchy where events and happenings unfold, and artists work together in purposeful collaboration using total communication - active listening, gesture, sound, signing, and inclusive environments and attitudes. 

## Our aims are to: 

- collaborate with people who have complex support needs in ways that increase their wellbeing 

- provide advocacy and support for families, unpaid carers and support teams of people who have complex needs 

- change perceptions and enable the wider community and art audiences to appreciate how neurodiverse communities enrich our lives. 

The activities and ethos of Project Art Works reflect the social model of disability that in its simplest form moves the focus away from peoples' impairments and towards removing the barriers to inclusion that disable people in everyday life. 

## **1.2 Strategic Development:** 

Our work is planned and developed within the strategic priorities of: 

- DEEPER - through expanding best practice 

- BROADER - through collaborations with art driven change agents 

- BIGGER - across society through strategic communications 

## **1.3 Key achievements 2021/2022** 

Turner Prize 2021 Nomination 

A selection of work was exhibited at the Herbert Gallery and Museum, Coventry. The installation included a studio area and a central constructed space enclosing a physical and digital archive from over 4,000 works by neurodivergent artists and makers over two decades. The archive embodies a visible trace of people who are often hidden in the world. 

'Yet it's one thing for art experts to hail outsiders. It's another to abolish the line between outside and inside, to include such art in the culture of the establishment on equal terms. But that is what Project Art Works do in their emotional room in this year's Turner prize exhibition. Project Art Works provide the materials, space, tutoring and exhibiting opportunities for people they term neurodiverse to make art. They get my vote and I suspect the popular vote too.' Jonathan Jones, The Guardian 

## **Ignition Hastings Contemporary** 

Project Art Works temporarily took over part of Hastings Contemporary for a collaborative residency to recover and reconnect as the winter ended and spring began.  This collaboration marked the emergence from a long year of lockdown and isolation to a more hopeful and safer environment within the gallery space. 

Following on from the residency, the Project Art Works exhibition opening at Hastings Contemporary coincided with opening of The Turner Prize Exhibition at The Herbert Gallery in Coventry City of Culture. 

'In this way, Christopher Tide's simple colour structures Untitled - single towers composed of broad, heavily applied brush strokes, coexist alongside Stanley Ellis and Louise Newham's Untitled (2012) with its animalistic shapes, defined cuts, sweeping strokes. The pieces all occupy vastly different territories, yet to walk from one to the next seems to bring them together in a strange way, as if they are talking to each other, finding points of contact, sinking down into spaces of understanding.' Extract James Zatka-Haas, Disability Arts Online

## **1.4 Deeper - inhouse programmes** 

Adult Social Care funding increased with government grants during the pandemic to support the additional costs associated with PPE. We were able to benefit from this funding in support of the delivery of our in-house programmes. There is a recruitment crisis of Care Workers within East Sussex. The impact is being felt by neurodiverse people and their support network. It has been particularly difficult for parent carers who manage a personal provision for their adult child, being unable to recruit support has placed an increased burden with very little respite available. There is recognition of the importance and impact that Voluntary, community and social enterprises have on the adult social care provision. 

'A key partner in East Sussex is the voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) sector. The VCSE sector generates economic, social and environmental benefits to communities across the county. For every eight businesses that employ staff in East Sussex, there is at least one VCSE organisation. The vast majority of these VCSE organisations are small; they employ at least 6,000 people across the county; and their volunteers contribute a total of 9.6 million hours each year - equivalent to almost 6,000 full-time workers. The GVA (gross value added) of East Sussex VCSE organisations is at least £76m and the value of volunteering to the local economy is estimated at £110m. 

The VCSE organisations are often the first to respond to the needs of communities. Organisations provide specialist support that is often not available from other providers. They take a person-centred approach, supporting people to access the different systems they need in order to be able to live an independent life. They are also providing safe, accessible, and inclusive spaces for individuals, groups and the wider community, that support inclusion and belonging.' Extract from East Sussex County Council Plan 2022/23 

Project Art Works continues to work with health and social care services in East Sussex and across the UK. Demand for our in-house programmes continues to grow with enquiries from Social Services, Transition teams and care settings seeking community based, specialised activity for young people and adults. 

## **Art Freedom Care** 

Art Freedom Care is a programme highlighting the creative and social contribution of people with complex needs, families and support workers. Through holistic support around the individual, we provide the right environment to enable people with complex needs to participate in creativity on their own terms. 

The creative programme takes place in our studios where 40 adults with complex needs have a creative practice throughout the year. Our inclusive studios in Hastings offer specialist visual arts provision for new and existing participants with complex support needs, facilitating their creativity through personalised pathways. Artists and makers can come to the studio for the same session(s) each week, building a community of peers and collaborators. 

Each session is tailored to individual needs and the development of personal creative pathways. 

Neurodiverse artists have had opportunities to represent themselves by taking part in workshops within exhibitions at the Turner Prize, Herbert Gallery, Coventry and Hastings Contemporary.  The work was profiled on a number of online websites and press articles including British Vogue, Disability Arts Online, The Guardian and mainstream television. The National Lottery commissioned us to support a neurodivergent artist to make an artwork for their 30 Million campaign in May 2020. 

The studio has hosted a number of visits from people wanting to find out more about the work due to our increased profile. 

As part of Art Freedom Care, the Support Collective brings together people with lived experience of complex support needs, their circles of support, families, carers, support workers, PAs and representatives from health and social care. We collectively share the aim of working towards person-centred, accountable and inclusive models of support and care, and protecting the rights of people with support needs. 

Through free training, skills development and advocacy, families and caregivers have opportunities to utilise and develop their knowledge. Over the past 12 months we have provided workshops and training that support people to move forward and plan for their future including an introduction to personal budgets, recruiting and employing personal assistants, managing staff and rotas, Positive behaviour support and Makaton. We have also worked with families in crisis or transition using PATH (Planning Alternative Tomorrows with Hope) facilitation. 

'The Makaton training was great. I've just started working with a young gentleman who I knew used basic signing when he was younger but has stopped using it over the years. I've started using it with him and he's remembered it! It's helping me get to know what he wants - his likes and dislikes.' Carer

## **Art Breaks** 

Art Breaks is an ongoing creative programme for children with complex support needs, their siblings and family which is funded through BBC Children in Need and a number of Trusts and Foundations. Covid-19 has impacted on all respite and children's services with an increase in children and young people being home schooled as available provision is inadequate. 

We provide creative workshops at weekends and in school holidays in our buildings. The studios are set up with open propositions of approaches and materials. All of the participants are encouraged to lead on their artistic involvement. Their response to the space and materials inspires innovative artwork and shapes the project and how it is facilitated. There is no pre-determined outcome within the workshops, and individual responses are valued and respected. This personalised approach gives all participants ownership over the environment and recognises all levels of creative input. The project supports all members of the family where participants, parents and siblings can take part in the supportive creative activity that shapes the environment. 

'Amazing, I don't have words to describe it. It was really fun. It gave me, my son and my daughter so much enjoyment and most importantly HOPE' Parent 

'It has made a real difference to their mental wellbeing over this second lockdown period. It had fed L's creative spirit and encouraged her to move forward with her art rather than stuck repetitively redoing the same pictures.' Parent 

## **1.5 Broader - Offsite Programme** 

## **Turner Prize Exhibition 2021, Herbert Gallery, Coventry City of Culture** 

Project Art Works was nominated for our practice which celebrates and raises awareness of the dynamic and extraordinary contribution neurodiverse communities make to art and culture. 

There are drawings and paintings hung up around the perimeter of the space; large scale and imposing, clean, there are little accordion books that fold out behind the glass wall of a vitrine. Then this proper-ness ruptures into something so much more unstable and interesting. The middle of the space is taken up by a huge block with open walled shelves; archive and storage for stack upon stack upon stack of paintings on stretched canvas, rolled up paper works, little boards. The works on the wall at the moment are just the surface, and this big storage set up has a heft. I walked up to a stack to peer round the edge of one canvas, the stack tipped open in the middle like a book. This storage isn't just about hinting at all the other possibilities for arrangement, the heft of this archive is a point in and of itself. Like saying, 'this is what's possible: look at all this work that exists.' The White Pube

## **Ignition Exhibition- Hastings Contemporary** 

Ignition began as a residency in the main gallery space at Hastings Contemporary during the last national lockdown, with artists working in the temporary studio while the building was closed to visitors. Ignition - The Exhibition will feature works made during this innovative intervention as well as works from the Project Art Works archive. A series of public events accompanied the exhibition. 

'This exhibition celebrates the incredible and dynamic contribution of neurominorities to art and society and reflects the commitment and ambitions of Hastings Contemporary to be a cultural hub for Hastings.' Liz Gilmour, Director, Hastings Contemporary 

## Visitors: 8,345 

## **Have You Ever Had, Sharif Persaud Exhibition** 

The exhibition shows artworks made by Sharif Persaud and the film 'The Mask' which was part of the body of films nominated for the Jarman Film Award 2020. First opened in February 2020 at Autograph Gallery London, it was closed by the Covid -19 lockdown. In June 2020 it reopened and the show travelled onto Bexhill's De La Warr Pavilion opening in October 2021. 

'A short film in which a man walks along the South Coast wearing an Al Murray mask has been nominated for a film award. Sharif Persaud improvised dialogue for the camera as he walked the five miles from Hastings to Bexhill. Over the course of The Mask talks about himself and what it means to have autism, mixing his real voice and a more gravelly tone of his alter-ego. And at the end of the walk, he interviews the real Al Murray in the dressing room of the De La Warr Pavilion. 

Now it has been nominated for the Jarman Award handed out by London's cutting-edge Whitechapel Gallery for films that 'celebrate the spirit of experimentation, imagination and innovation.' Chortle magazine

## **EXPLORERS II** 

EXPLORERS ll will build a strong collaborative partnership of cultural enablers working to increase visibility & support for neurodivergent artists in contemporary visual art. 

The project runs from 2021 to 2023 and the core leadership group of Project Art Works, Autograph, ActionSpace, Intoart, MK Gallery, Photoworks, Venture Arts, BALTIC are working with associates and allies to catalyse change. Partners are supporting artist residencies and developing collaborations with others, enabling them to test new approaches and engage different audiences. Encounters between neurodivergent and neurotypical audiences will: 

- introduce cultural organisations to the lives led by neurominorities and their circles of support to promote understanding and more effective ways of working 

- inspire organisational change so that neurominorities have more opportunities to contribute their talents, ideas and experiences 

- show exceptional work of neurodivergent artists and ensure they have a platform to articulate the specific changes organisations need to make to ensure inclusive participation and representation. 

## **DOCUMENTA FIFTEEN** 

Project Art Works has been commissioned to contribute to documenta fifteen, an international showcase of contemporary art, that will take place over 100 days between June 18 until September 25, 2022 in Kassel, Germany. 

Ruangrupa is an artist collective based in Indonesia and form part of the curatorial team for documenta fifteen. 

'We want to create a globally oriented, cooperative, interdisciplinary art and culture platform that will remain effective beyond the 100 days of documenta fifteen. Our curatorial approach aims at a different kind of collaborative model of resource use-economically, but also in terms of ideas, knowledge, programs, and innovation.' 

Project Art Works is 1 of 15 collectives invited by Ruangrupa and the curatorial team, to contribute to documenta fifteen collaborative actions and artworks. 

## **Art on loan** 

Through Art on Loan we develop mutually beneficial relationships with the corporate sector. Art on Loan offers businesses and individuals the opportunity to hire or buy original artworks for exhibition from our archive. The works in the collection have been created by Project Art Works' artist makers and consist largely of paintings, prints and drawings which encompass a diverse range of approaches to image making: from figuration to abstraction. The collection is constantly expanding and is a live and vibrant resource. Art on Loan enables Project Art Works to access corporate philanthropy through our most significant donor asset, the art.  It also enables us to increase awareness about our work and the people we work with in this sector.  We negotiate a donation with each business and this contributes to a more sustainable and diverse funding base. New relationships are being built as companies emerge from the pandemic and return to the workplace. 

## **Premier Inn - Premier Plus** 

Behind the scenes during lockdowns, the Premier Inn team upgraded a significant number of their rooms to Premier Plus. We negotiated a license agreement for reproducing prints of original works in 2020 which has proved to be fruitful. the partnership remains strong with the rollout of Premier Plus rooms is moving at pace.  Project Art Works and the neurodiverse artist' work is credited in every space where the reproductions are used. 

## **1.6 Bigger: communications driving our strategic objectives** 

## **Communications** 

Through increased profile and exhibitions, we have reached a broader range of new audiences, expanding our network and impact. Our website has undergone an accessibility audit by a neurodiverse artist and key areas for improvement have been identified and will be implemented in the first quarter 2022-23. Regular newsletters are sent to subscribers, with news items posted across the digital platforms. A more targeted approach has been taken to provide support and information to key stakeholders such as the Support collective. Digital engagement has increased significantly over the last year in response to our increased profile. 

Media attention has reinforced our national reputation as leaders within inclusion and relevance and demonstrates growing interest in neurodiversity reflected in features in Vogue (225.6K av. daily website page views + monthly print circulation) and The Guardian (720K av. daily website page views to website + av. daily readership print publication).

## **National Lottery 30 Million campaign** 

Following on from the successful national billboard campaign between Project Art Works and Camelot in October 2020 for the National Lottery 30 Million campaign, a second campaign was commissioned. Neurodiverse artist Siddarth Gadiyar was selected to produce a new artwork for the campaign identity. The campaign was supported by a short film which was linked on The Camelot website and was used as part of a feature in The Mirror newspaper and website. The artwork was also used in a national billboard and bus shelter campaign. 

'It will be interesting to see how Sid reacts if he sees his work when he's out and about. I'm so happy he's done it. His whole life I've been told 'he can't go here, he can't do that', so it's amazing he's doing this [The National Lottery campaign] and contributing to society." Susmitha (mother) is full of praise for Project Art Works who welcomed Sid with open arms despite what she describes as a "long list" of challenging behaviours. She said, "I read Project Art Works the whole list and they didn't hesitate, they just said 'bring him'. They make everything safe for him by putting away breakables, shutting all the doors and removing triggers.' Online article, The National Lottery 

The National Lottery nationwide billboard campaigns in 2020 and 2021 and associated advertising campaign in The Mirror featuring artwork made by 2 neurodivergent artists reached over 111.5m people (figure supplied by Camelot).

Reserves were identified for two distinct areas: 

- I Building - the Trustees considered potential risks not covered by insurance or planned expenditure. II Operational - the Trustees considered that reserves should be built up to cover potential risks as follows: 

   - a. 3 months operational costs 

   - b. redundancy costs, contingency for outstanding liabilities, and professional costs

- c. 

- d. contingency for fluctuations in funding cycles. 

In 2021-22 we were able contribute £10,254 toward building reserves that protect the continuation of our core work and provide cover for risks such as unforeseen expenditure and loss of anticipated income. Going forward we aim to develop unrestricted income through Art on Loan and associated sales of work to build reserves. 

The total amount of funds held at 31 March 2022 was £927,886 (2021 - £897,734). Of these funds £758,290 (2021 - £795,805) were restricted. Unrestricted funds were £169,596 (2021 - £101,928). 

## **FULFILMENT OF PUBLIC BENEFIT REQUIREMENTS OF THE CHARITIES ACT 2006** 

Project Art Works provides benefits to children, young people and adults who have profound neurological and physical impairment in the form of access to high quality visual art projects that support them in communication and self-expression and which break down barriers to their rights and equalities. 

These benefits are related to our stated aims: 'The objects of Project Art Works shall be to relieve persons, and in particular children and young people with disabilities by the provision of facilities for the practice and study of art as a form of therapy.' 

The benefits derived by participating individuals are carefully monitored and evaluated against any detriment or harm. Participants are protected through the implementation of a Children and Vulnerable Adults protection policy, and through risk assessments carried out in liaison with care agencies and/or parents. The beneficiaries are appropriate to the aims, with an emphasis on individuals at the highest end of the spectrum of complex needs. There are no direct charges to individuals.

## **Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of Project Art Works** 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of Project Art Works (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. 

In our opinion the financial statements: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended; 

- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'; and 

- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Basis for opinion** 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report.  We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.  We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. 

## **Other information** 

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon. 

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.  We have nothing to report in this regard. 

## **Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006** 

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: 

- the information given in the Report of the Trustees for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and 

- the Report of the Trustees has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. 

## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** 

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees. 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or 

- certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or 

- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

## **Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of Project Art Works** 

## **Responsibilities of trustees** 

As explained more fully in the Trustees' Responsibilities Statement, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

## **Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors 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. 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 noncompliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: 

We identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements from our general commercial and sector experience, through verbal and written communications with those charged with governance and other management, and via inspection of the charitable company's regulatory and legal correspondence. 

We discussed with those charged with governance and other management the policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations. 

We communicated identified laws and regulations to our team and remained alert to any indicators of non-compliance throughout the audit, we also specifically considered where and how fraud may occur within the company. 

The potential effect of these laws and regulations on the financial statements varies considerably. 

Firstly, the charitable company is subject to laws and regulations that directly affect the financial statements, including: the charitable company's constitution, relevant financial reporting standards and company law, and we assess the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statement items. 

Secondly the charitable company is subject to many other laws and regulations where the consequences of non-compliance could have a material effect on the amounts or disclosures in the financial statements, for instance through the imposition of fines and penalties, or through losses arising from litigations.  We identified the following areas as those most likely to have such an affect: child safeguarding, adults at risk safeguarding, employment legislation, health and safety legislation, operating licences regarding the charitable company's operating premises, data protection legislation and anti-bribery and corruption legislation. 

International Standards on Auditing (UK) limit the required procedures to identify non-compliance with these laws and regulations to the procedures, and no procedures over and above those already noted are required. 

These limited procedures did not identify any actual or suspected non-compliance which laws and regulations that could have a material impact on the financial statements.

The extent to whth our pro￿ureS are capable of deteth'ng irregular￿e$, includino fraud is detailed bek)w:
Aud￿ procedures carried out to L1etert irregularities including fraud were as follows..
A risk assessment in respect of the detection of irregularities indudin9 fraud addressed income, expenditure
and management override in particular.
A sample of grant appl*cations made were substantwely tested and vouched to award letters and funds
received or to rejection corresponden￿.
A sample of expEnses ￿Ere substantwely tested by being vouched to supwrts.ng pape￿ork. Where applicable
the expenses We￿ checked to ensure that they were valid in terms of the grant conditions associated with the
funding received. For large and unusual expenses the rationale of the transartions were evaluated.
Journal entries made were reviewed and substantially were iran5fers be￿een projects and core costs. A
sample of such joumals were tested to confirm the transfer5 were bjna fide. For large and unusual journals
the ratlonale of the transath'ons were evaluated.
An assessment of how fraud might occur. Income is substsntially re￿IVed by dirert payment into the bank
account. Petty cash transactions are trivial. Authorisation for expenses is geared to the value of transactions.
There is a hierarchy of who can sign for increasing amounts with duplicate authorisation required for high value
transactions. Control accounts are maintained and reconciled monthly for debtors, cash at bank and in hand
and creditors. Flxed assets registers are reviewed and checked. Observation and enquiry during the course
of the audlt confirmed the assessment.
An assessment of judgements and estlmates. No judgernents have teen incorporated in the accounts. The

## **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: 

Voluntary income is received by way of donations and gifts and is included in full in the statement of  financial activities when received. 

Non Government Grants, including grants for the purchase of fixed assets, are recognised at fair value when the charity has entitlement after any performance conditions have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. If entitlement is not met then these amounts are deferred. 

The charity has received government grants in respect of Covid resilience, Covid infection control and the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme . Income from government  is recognised at fair value when the charity has entitlement after any performance conditions have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. If entitlement is not met then these amounts are deferred. 

Income from investments is included in the year in which it is receivable. 

## **Resources expended** 

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes VAT which cannot  be recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates. 

Costs of generating funds comprise the costs associated with running specific projects.  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. 

Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity. 

Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and includes the audit fee.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements - continued for the Year Ended 31 March 2022** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued** 

## **Fund accounting** 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the Charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits** 

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme.  Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate. 

## **Operating leases** 

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. 

## **Going concern** 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist.
