TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2023.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "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 published in October 2019".

The legal and administrative information page forms part of this report.

Objectives and activities

The objects of the charity are to advance education for the public benefit by the promotion of the arts, in particular but not exclusively the art of drama.

In order to achieve these objects the charity:

The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the trust’s aims and in planning future activities.

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

Activities of the Charity

The Charity has had a positive and productive year seeing a return to more confident touring and the development of projects initiated during Covid-19. More specifically, the Charity’s activities have benefited the public throughout the year through:

Leeds Young Film Festival

The charity was commissioned by Leeds Young Film Festival to collaborate with three Leeds cultural organisations in Millenium Square to enhance the experience of family audiences attending the film festival. Tutti Frutti commissioned Leeds based writer Chris O’Connor to write the Secret Silver Screen Society which was a series of short interactive performances that took place in four different spaces in the Carriageworks Theatre and Leeds City Museum and appropriately timed these to take place between film screenings. 94 children and their families attended the performances alongside the films.

Arts Engagement

This year has seen the second of a five-year funding programme secured from the Didymus Charity to develop arts engagement projects in the Harehills area of Leeds and its environs. The newly appointed Project Co-ordinator, Suvi Saraf, has worked hard on developing the Tutti Frutti club, an arts engagement project that takes place after school, for children aged 3+ in partnership with Harehills Primary School. Leeds Inspired funding supported the pilot of the club in summer 2022 and further funding was secured from Mohn Westlake, to develop the project over a three-year period, and from the Pears Youth Fund to reach more children locating it in a second local school; Hovingham Primary School. The children have engaged in and enjoyed workshops in dance, music, creative writing, storytelling, crafts and puppetry delivered by a cohort of culturally representative Leeds-based professional theatre practitioners. The aim of the project is to engage children in the low socio-economic area of Gipton and Harehills in high quality arts and cultural activities as there is a lack of provision for this young age group and socio-economic barriers for them to access other facilities and clubs. The delivery of the project is based on the well documented evidence that it is vital for children to have relevant cultural experiences that will develop their creativity, self esteem and aspirations and stimulate their imaginations helping them see the world with fresh eyes.

Suvi has been networking with local organisations and community members and run several focus groups with local school parents to better understand their aspirations and needs for their children through the arts.

Jerwood Weston Creative Busaries

A successful application was made in partnership with Leeds Playhouse, for a Weston Jerwood Bursary for a designer to work with the two companies for a year. Bradford based designer Warda Abassi was the successful candidate and she designed the Leeds Young Film Festival project the Secret Silver Screen Society as part of her bursary and was then employed to design Jack Frost and the Search for Winter by Joseph Coelho in autumn 2022. A further successful application has been made for a Jerwood Arts Bursary for two more designers for 2023/24 and 2024/25.

TUTTI FRUTTI PRODUCTIONS

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

Jack Frost and the Search for Winter by Joseph Coelho

This was a new commission from the Children’s Laureate Joseph Coehlo and brought together a predominantly global majority* team to work on the production. Eleanor Manning directed the production and Warda Abassi, fresh from her Weston Jerwood Bursary, designed the show. The show toured nationally for 8 weeks followed by a three-week Christmas run at Sheffield Studio Theatre. 127 performances took place to a total audience of 10,294. There was a strong environmental theme to this show and it was also the first in which we have attempted to reach the Baseline level of the Theatre Green Book, a new initiative that supports the arts in becoming more sustainable in its practices.

*Those who are ethnically and culturally diverse, and who experience racism in our society.

Ugly Duckling by Emma Reeves

This popular show was remounted and performed for four weeks in December at the studio in Derby Theatre as their Christmas production for children aged 3+, parents and carers. 48 performances took place reaching an audience of 2,345. The show then toured the USA for 13 weeks delivering 70 performances in 21 venues to audiences of 25,395. The show was extremely well received and surpassed all targets. As only the second time touring the USA, the show has consolidated the relationship with the US agents and a further two years of touring the US are already planned.

Sweet Dreams by Mike Kenny

A series of performances of this audio play, that was made during lockdown as it was unable to tour nationally, took place over a weekend in November 2022 at the Junction in Goole. The audio play, and associated podcasts on the wonders and benefits of sleep, were enjoyed by families over 5 performances and are available for audiences to listen to on our website.

Financial review

The Charity has weathered the post-Covid period well and has felt a slow return to more confident producing and touring over the year. Audience numbers have increased on the previous year and the US tour was extremely successful. The tutti frutti club remains extremely important reaching children in low socio-economic areas where access to the arts present challenges to the local families and children. Venue bookings remain hesitant and the trend of programming well known book adaptations or stories predominates. Fee income is conservative in the face of a climate of safe programming. The enhanced level of 50% Theatre Tax Relief for touring has been very welcome and allowed the company to generate a surplus on the year.

The Charity has had continued success this year in fundraising employing Fundraising Manager Janet Myers on a freelance basis. She and the team have successfully generated funds for current and future projects from Didymus Charity, Wades Charity, Pears Youth Fund, George A Moore and Mohn Westlake Foundation, to whom they extend great thanks. Funding was also jointly secured with Leeds Playhouse from the Jerwood Weston Foundation.

The Charity is core funded by Arts Council England and Leeds City Council to whom it extends great thanks. The year has seen new grant giving rounds for both these funders and the charity has been successful in maintaining its position as a national portfolio organisation with 3 year of funding from Arts Council England and a further 1 year of funding from Leeds City Council.

Reserves policy

The trustees have established the level of reserves that the charity should have as amounting to twelve months operating costs at a minimum due to the current climate and future funding uncertainties. At 31 March 2023 the charity has free reserves of £200,913 (2022: £222,549) which equates to 12 (2022: 14) months operating costs.

Risk management

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

Structure, governance and management

The charity is a company limited by guarantee by its Memorandum of Articles of Association dated 9 August 2001. The company adopted revised Memorandum of Articles of Association on 26[th] January 2011 when it became a charity. A further amendment was made to the Memorandum of Articles of Association at the AGM on 14[th] October 2015 in which the number of trustees was increased from 7 to 9.

Trustees to run the charity are identified through contacts within the arts and education fields, by advertising through organisations like Arts Council of England, NCVO, board banks and targeted advertising for specific skill requirements and diversity.

The trustees' report was approved by the Board of Trustees.

The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the charitable objectives.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which have been set aside to fund particular future activities of the charity.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements. 1.4 Income

All income is accounted for when the charity has entitlement to the funds, certainty of receipt and the amount is measurable.

1.5 Expenditure

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Where expenditure cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities as a basis consistent with the use of resources. Raising funds relates to those costs incurred in obtaining donations and legacies.

Costs of charitable activities include the cost of performances and other activities undertaken to further the purpose of the charity.

1.6 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets costing more than £500 are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases: Musical & Stage equipment 25% straight line Fixtures and fittings 20% straight line Computers 33% straight line

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
