Risk Management The major rlsks to which the charltable company Is exposed have been identifled and reviewed, and systems or procedure5 have been establlshed to manage those rlsks. The major rlsks are; Temporary Cash flow problems. We avold these problems through applylng our reserves pollcy (see below), Injury to a member of the public or an artist during a production or rehearsal. We carefully risk assess and adlust all activitles to maximi5e safety. We also ensure we have publlc Ilabillty Insurance and employer's liablllty Insurance whenever we are undertakln8 activitles. Reputatlonal damage caused by poor critical or audlence response to a production, We work with experienced art15ts and regularly evaluate the progress of projects to ensure high quallty. An advantage of our long track record Is that one poor project Is unllkely to ruin our reputatlon. Organlsatlons who commls5ion u5 are unhappy with the work we produce. We carefully agree wlth commlssloners what we wlll produce and engage them in frequent dialogue as a project develops to ensure that we are meetlng the agreed targets and produclng somethlng they are satisfled with. Through applylng our reserves pollcy Isee below) we ensure that we always have enough money to remain solvent If a commlssioner withdraws fundlng for a project. Failure to engage suff iclent members of the public and deliver publlc benefit. Trustees review projects to ensure that they wlll deliver publlc benefit. We invest in marketinE and press activitles to ensure that our productlons wlll reach good numbers of members of the public. We also belleve In the Importance ofthe depth of engagement of audience member5 beyond Simply the numbers of those engaged. Digital risk, concerning protectin8 the intellectual property and onward use of digital activities and safely secu ring and processing data given many OF the charitable company's activities are delivered digitally, We place great emphasis on protectlng against these risks and have extensive strategies in place to do so. Loss of talent. Much of the success of Fast Familiarfs work relies on the talent of the creatives who work for us, We seek to ensure that we can continue to work wlth these creatives by glving them interesting and challen8lng work and remunerating them reasonably well {but in line wlth our position as a charity). Resee5 Policy The Trustees monltor their creditors each year to ensure that they have sufficient reserves to meet their ongoing Ilabilitles. The Trustees keep a mlnlmum of £10,000 in reserve {and normally considerably morel to cover cash flow problems whlch can be caused by funders who tend to withhold a percentage of funding until an evaluation has been delivered or to allow us to remaln solvent In the event that a commissioning organisation does not pay us. We also keep

Fast Famlllar Llmlted l Report of the Trustees Year from l April 2023- 31 March 2024 Forget What You Know A pervasive game about surveillance, clvll rl8hts and processes of structural dehumanisatlon. Forget What You Know u5e5 pervasive game as an Inoculation tactic. situating players in a counter-factual world within our own where civil rights are being eroded In the name of security.. where a group of people are being Systematically deprlved of their humanlty. To create this immersive world, the experience draws on accounts by Jews in 1930s Germany whlch describe the legislatlon and rumour-mongering whlch laid the foundatlons for the Holocaust. Participants follow digital clues to real world locations, where they uncover secrets about what15 happening. What action will they take? And will everyone make It to the end? Forget what you know mixes immersive story-telllng, scavenger hunt and historical fact to ask urgent questions about power and freedom. Durlng thls year we recelved a seed commlsslon from Dr Ellen Pllsworth and Professor Davld Brauner at the Unlverslty of Reading to develop a structure and outline for the piece. During future years we plan to complete and perform It. Invaslve Specles A 5ite-5peclflc audio walk on the Isle of Mull, whlch asks timely questions about how humans can co-exlst wlth the natural world. Commlssloned by An Tobar and Mull Theatres.

Following the walk, partlcipants can browse the booklet that accompanle5 the experience, discovering more about the walk's themes, and leavlng their own reflections for future vlsltors, Durlng thls year we spent more tlme developln8 this piece, Including creating a complete scrlpt and worklng wlth composer Jamle Perera to explore possibilities for a sound design for It and dld a work In progre55 performance for test audlence5. We are now working with An Tobar and Mull Theatres to seek funding to complete and perform the piece, Canaries We were commlssioned by JW3 to undertake some work developing a piece explorlng how dlfferent people can, because of thelr lived experlence and sense of identity, look at the same object and have radlcally dlfferent emotions and responses. The idea was that this would result In an in5tallatlon in which vlsltors look at objects and have headphones on whlch they can hear dlfferent characters describlng their response to the object and the reasons behlnd It. Objects mlght include thlngs as diverse as an England flag and plastic tupperwares. Durlng thls year we undertook Ideation and development work on the prolect and interviewed a wlde range of people about objects that they had dlstlnctive, surprlsin£ or visceral responses to.
