HOUSE OF IMAGINATION (REGISTERED NUMBER: 06173241)

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2021. 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 Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

House of Imagination (formerly 5x5x5=creativity) is an arts research charity that improves children's life chances by helping them to explore and express their ideas and develop creative skills for life. House of Imagination creates places and spaces to research, share and celebrate the power of imagination in children's lives. This is achieved through exceptional and exciting creative partnerships with artists, schools, cultural centres, higher education and creative industries. House of Imagination is a home for improvisation, creativity and innovation and a place to make those things visible to an international audience through research. Our ambition is that the benefits to society of investing in the development of children's creative thinking will be universally recognised.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Objectives and aims

The objects of the Charity are the advancement of education and in particular:

During 2020-21 we have continued to develop the Vision and Strategy for the House of Imagination, now an awardwinning charity (Creative Bath, Action for Children's Arts) providing cultural and educational infrastructure to Bath, Bristol and the SW region. The charity continues to develop a national and international reputation, working alongside key academics, artists, cultural and creative partners and pioneers to provide stimulating events and creative sites for pedagogical innovation, with integrated professional development and evaluation.

The charity also directly supports a wider creative ecology through co-ordinating a number of key multi-sector and multi-partner networks, including Bath Cultural Education Partnership (BCEP), the South West Creative Education Network, RSA Bath and What Next? Chapter West.

Since March 2020 due to COVID19, we lost the opportunity for face-to-face collaboration with creative partners, artists, schools and young people. However, thanks to emergency funding from Arts Council England we were able to pivot swiftly to a digital platform to ensure our ongoing work both locally and internationally.

We continue to work with colleagues to deepen thinking, challenge perceptions and stimulate change. We are working to contribute to the international and critical debate about education in a social democracy, to build an educational culture and creative environments that can change lives. As an organisation, House of Imagination is committed to ensuring services are inclusive and meet the needs of all members of the community.

Public benefit

The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 4 of the Charities Act 2006 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission. The public benefits of the work of House of Imagination include supporting creativity in the classroom, enhancing the learning and social skills of children and making teachers and schools more confident in developing to improve learning outcomes.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Activities of the charity: Research activity overview

House of Imagination is a research organisation with a focus on children's and young people's creative and critical thinking. In practice House of Imagination uses action research to plan and deliver innovative programmes that enable children to shape their lives through creative activity and schools to change their practices through professional development and school-based activity. At its heart is co-enquiry between children, teachers and creative professionals. House of Imagination is driven by a desire for change in both children's lives and in schools, focusing on an exploration of the possibilities that creativity offers. Children need more opportunities to develop their creativity and to experiment and teachers need more support to integrate these skills. Through research and dissemination House of Imagination provides evidence for change and helps to build a strong cultural ecology that in turn supports children, schools and creative professionals. Over this last year we have continued working closely with schools and early years settings both online and in person to develop and integrate a creative and reflective pedagogy with research at the heart of the process.

House of Imagination places children and young people at the heart of its work as co-creators, co-enquirers and colearners. This creative collaborative learning approach helps develop critical thinking and communication skills. Crucially, it places value on the process of learning rather than pre-defined outcomes. HOI occupies a unique space within the creative and cultural learning sector that few can rival. The charity anchors its work within robust, academically underpinned research married to live case-studies and dynamic cross-sector partnerships. Programmed activities develop directly from this nexus responding to findings, need and lines of enquiry. This positioning enables it to operate fluidly without boundaries across local, regional and international spheres, attracting artists and creative talent from the UK and overseas. The charity's expertise in Creative Pedagogy is well documented and established over 20 years, with its credibility and rigor mirrored in an array of successful collaborations.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Activities of the Charity: Highlights of our research activity

Bath Cultural Education Partnership supports the development of cultural education provision for under-served children and young people in Bath and North East Somerset with House of Imagination working in partnership with Bath Spa University, the egg theatre, Bath Festivals, Holburne Museum and Mentoring Plus. BCEP produced a vision statement as an invitation to all cultural organisations in B&NES to focus on access and provision for creative and cultural education for all children and young people. BCEP partners are scoping the possibility of establishing a Bath Cultural Education Trust as a future National Portfolio Organisation. BCET will incorporate and manage a coordinated approach to creative and cultural learning with children and young people across the region.

Members of the Bath Cultural Education Partnership steering group were successful in our individual bids for emergency funding from Arts Council England. This funding meant that collectively, we devoted 10% of our ACE grants to working with artists to co-design new creative activities delivered to families in B&NES who have been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 crisis. Bath Spa University is supporting this initiative by funding a Digital Internship, enabling the project to have a longer-term digital presence. BCEP will work in partnership with local schools and organisations in the area to reach out to those in need.

School Without Walls: Staff meetings with educational and cultural partners have informed future funding bids in collaboration with University of Dundee and the Big Draw.

Forest of Imagination: This is normally a 5 day contemporary art and architecture event and joint initiative with Grant Associates funded by Grant Associates, Bath Spa University and Arts Council England. Forest of Imagination 2020 pivoted to a digital platform and generated a Virtual Forest of Imagination 2020, alongside local and international artists and designers. This involved 10 weeks of excellent creative activity with diverse audiences, in collaboration with the Big Draw team, Children's Art Week, Clayhill Arts and Bath City Farm. Virtual Forest 2020 culminated in an international online event on 10.10.20 with Ted Countdown, TedxBath and Bath Spa University. Travelling Forest 2021 transformed 5 locations across the city into spaces for creativity (Bath City Farm, Beckford's Tower, American Museum, Batheaston Secret Garden and the Holburne Museum), engaging schools and families in creative learning.

In partnership with Avon Wildlife Trust, House of Imagination made a proposal to the Council for a permanent Forest of Imagination at Entry Hill Golf Course, but were unsuccessful in the tender process despite clear interest from the local and international community. Other potential sites are under review.

SW Creative Education Network: professional development learning opportunities for educators and creative professionals (funded in its early phases of development by the Comino Foundation, for which HoI is grateful, draws on existing and emerging clusters of educational practice and expertise who provide outstanding creative education for children and young people. Partners include Bath Spa University, University of Bristol, University of Gloucestershire and Plymouth College of Art, plus regional creative industries including Knowle West Media Centre, Cheltenham Festivals and local education partnerships in Bath, Bristol, Cheltenham and Gloucester. The focus of hub meetings with heads and creative partners 2020-21 has been to co-design relevant professional development for teachers in response to need, especially in the light of COVID19.

Re-imagining Libraries: HoI has played an active role in the vision group working with Bath Spa University, University of Bath, Bath College to re-imagine the city centre library in Bath as a space for thinking, creating and innovating. The links to the WECA funded iSTART (Innovation, Science, Technology, Arts, Research and Training) project and Restart.

Bristol and Bath Creative R&D Expanded Performance programme 2020-1 - the Rabbit Holes Collective has a focus on co-designing adaptive podcasts with young people in collaboration with BBC Creative R&D.

Thinking Differently: work with Neurodiverse and Special Needs Children in Worcestershire, Hertfordshire and Shropshire, with online mentoring and professional development.

Continuing professional development courses in 2020-21 with Bath Spa University, Tybed and Sightlines Initiative.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Future aims and objectives

We continue to refine our strategy with the intention of focusing on the central aspects of our charitable work.

Our aims over the next three years are:

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

It is the policy of the charity to have three months of operating costs in reserves.

Financial review

The Board of Trustees has continued to develop its capacity to analyse the impact of House of Imagination and to set the overall direction for the charity. We continue to invest in the quality of our work and thereby to increase its impact on the participants in our research in the South West and also on policy and practice further afield.

Previous Arts Council emergency funding in 2020 enabled the charity to continue to operate with confidence. House of Imagination already achieves a huge amount on a modest budget due to the credibility of its innovations and the passionate and dedicated creative leadership of the Director and Trustees. Without these funds, existing commitments to artists and partners would have been under threat and high-impact programmes such as 'Forest of Imagination' halted. COVID 19 was a catalyst to hone thinking around new ways of working, with a focus on how we extend meaningful digital engagement responding dynamically and collaboratively to best meet the challenges head-on.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

House of Imagination (formerly 5x5x5=creativity) is a registered charity and a company limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006. It was registered in 2007 and is governed by a Memorandum and Articles of Association. These were modified in October 2010. 5x5x5=creativity was renamed House of Imagination in August 2019.

Organisational structure

The charity is governed by a Board of Trustees which meets at least four times a year and more often if necessary. There are currently no permanent sub committees of the Board. The Trustees regularly assess the skills and experience needed on the Board and identify potential candidates to meet those needs. New Trustees can be elected at any time of year and if so, can be confirmed in post at the subsequent AGM. The charity has the support and guidance of seven patrons with a wealth of experience as education or arts professionals.

During this year, there was one part-time employee, the Director of Research (Dr Penny Hay), supported by a part-time freelance Finance Officer (Kim Bundy appointed in 2019; due to ill health was replaced by Emma Endicott, appointed January 2021). Filmmaker Weronika Dwronik was appointed as a part-time freelance Creative Producer in January 2021.

House of Imagination is now resident at The Studio, Palace Yard Mews Bath (Research Centre for Cultural and Creative Industries).
