## The Thornton & Allerton Community Association Limited Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2025 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## **The charity's objects** 

To promote any charitable purposes for the benefit of the inhabitants of Thornton and Allerton and neighbourhood without distinction of sex or of political, religious or other opinions by in particular by associating the local authorities, voluntary organisations and inhabitants in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities in the interest of social welfare for recreation and other leisure-time occupation with the object of improving the conditions of life for the said inhabitants. 

## **Public benefit statement** 

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

Our 2024/2025 year has been filled with exhibitions, activities, and workshops. Programme highlights included: 

A total of 21 exhibitions took place across our Main Gallery, Café & Unit 9 spaces which were on display for between 30-60 days per exhibition. Highlights included: West Yorkshire Through Their Eyes, our Joan Day Painting Bursary winner Alex Anaughe ‘Black In Colour’ and ‘Home is Not A Place But We Are Home’ in which Queer artists explored notions of home & identity through contemporary art. We also presented a series of outdoor sculptures in our courtyard & garden through Summer by Paul Stockley. 

We had host of different events & workshops including: Mindful May returning for its 5th year featuring workshops & demos of wellbeing focussed activities, ‘Poets in the Square’ open mic poetry evening, South Square makers market in November over two days, and Light Up Thornton collaborative event with Sapgate Gardens. Our recurring craft workshops programme has continued alongside artist development workshops such as artist crits. 

## **CDF Project / Outreach Activity** 

In April, we recruited Arts & Heritage Officer Gemma Bailey, whose work is funded by Kala Sangam through a partnership with them funded by DCMS and the Cultural Development Programme. Gemma’s primary role is to work with three community groups on long-term projects about culture & heritage over two years. Each group will steer their own projects resulting in a final major commission to be presented as part of Bradford City of Culture. Gemma is working with: Lower Grange ESOL Group, Soul Girls, Young people in Thornton and South Square Knit N Natter group. 

This year each of the groups has had the opportunity to take part in getting-to-know-you sessions, taster creative sessions on different artforms and visits. Lower Grange ESOL group presented their interim showcase at South Square in November 2024 which consisted of a film, embroidered tablecloth and other 2D artworks they had created. From here they are working with textile artist Clare Wellesley-Smith to create a major textile sculpture. Soul Girls have been creating different artworks each week with external workshop facilitators. They are presenting their artworks at an outdoor art trail in Allerton in the school summer holidays in 2025. They have created sculptures inspired by Barbara Hepworth’s Family of Man, created Lego mosaics, giant friendship bracelets and a viaduct inspired mural. Thornton’s Crown youth group took part in a 6-day Summer School intensive, aimed at exploring public art, they visited Yorkshire Sculpture Park and ran their own consultation on the viaduct with members of the public. The weekend ended in a showcase where the young people paraded down the viaduct wearing cardboard sculptures and playing the sound piece they created. Their work is continuing with a final outcome due in the next financial year.

## **Achievements and performance continued** 

## **OUR TURN: Bradford Visual Arts Festival** 

In September 2024, we were successful with an Arts Council England project grant to support a period of Research & Development to create an artist-led visual arts festival for Bradford. As part of our R&D, we convened a group of 18 artist steering group members who represent broad sub-sectors of the visual arts scene in Bradford, they have guided conversations around what is needed to support a thriving visual arts sector and what content they would like to see in a major artist-led fringe festival. The group visited Tate Britain to see the 2024 Turner Prize exhibition and have fed into a large Arts Council bid to deliver the festival in 2025 which has been successful. 

## **Developing Governance & Team Changes** 

After the recruitment of new co-chairs Matt Storey & Nicola Murray in March 2024, the Board has embarked upon a period of development. All Board members took part in training by CABAD in their roles & responsibilities as trustees. Jane Rice-Bowen, an experienced consultant in the culture sector and chair of Eureka! took us through a period of governance development. The trustees reviewed our Vision, Mission & Values, and together we have developed a 3-year business plan for the organisation. Our new vision is ‘making change through creativity’ and the values we use to achieve this are Trust, Ambition, Creativity, Curiosity, and Community. The business plan sets out our ambitions for the 3 years ahead with SMART targets for each area of the organisation. The 3-year business plan was adopted in March 2025 with reviews at each Board meeting to hold staff accountable to the targets within. 

Nushin Hussain, programme & gallery manager left in November 2024 and in January we recruited Domino Panton-Oakley to take the role of programme & gallery manager. Domino joins us from her previous role as the director and founder of Neighbourhood Gallery in Manchester and running Cotton On Manchester pop up events. 

We have also invested in recruiting freelance support in marketing, evaluation and bookkeeping. In April 2025, trustee Carole Roberts resigned from the Board due to relocating after a successful 18 months with the organisation. 

## **Financial review** 

The net expenditure for the year was £3,545, including net expenditure of £7,554 on unrestricted funds and net income of £4,009 on restricted funds. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £105,370. 

The Board of trustees has established a policy whereby the charity aims to have unrestricted reserves that would be sufficient to cover six months expenditure, redundancy costs for employed staff and enable the retention of a sinking fund for the building. Based on budgeted 2025/2026 recurrent expenditure this equates to £100,900.

## The Thornton & Allerton Community Association Limited Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2025 

## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities** 

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards. 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. 

Approved by the board of trustees on 15/10/2025

## The Thornton & Allerton Community Association Limited Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Thornton & Allerton Community Association Limited 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charitable company for the year ended 31 March 2025, which are set out on pages 7 to 15. 

WYCAS conduct the bookkeeping and complete the independent examination for the charity. The following criteria are met: 

1)  the independent examiner is a member of an approved body that has applied the FRC's Revised Ethical Standard; 

2)  there is documentary evidence in respect of the bookkeeping arrangements that the trustees were "informed management" and have made such judgements and decisions that are needed in relation to the presentation and disclsure of information in the financial statements; 

3) the independent examiner was not the book-keeper nor does the examiner report directly to the bookkeeper. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the charitable company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the charitable company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2 the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

- 4 the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)]. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
