Irish Cultural Centre Hammersmith Ltd Trustees’ Report

For the year ended 31 March 2025

Overview of the charity and its activities

Since its official opening in 1995, the Irish Cultural Centre Hammersmith ("the ICC") has operated as a centre for the promotion and enjoyment of Irish arts, culture and heritage in London, welcoming people of all cultures and generations.

During the year ended 31 March 2025, the ICC continued to deliver a wide-ranging programme of cultural, educational and community activities. These included education classes, lectures, conferences, exhibitions, Irish cultural events, live music concerts, theatre productions, literature events, film screenings and community activities. The ICC also continued to provide digital access to Irish culture through its ICC Digital platform and YouTube channel.

The ICC maintained a rolling programme of contemporary Irish art exhibitions throughout the year. In partnership with Portobello Radio, the ICC continued to produce a two-hour monthly Irish arts radio programme, Bright Side of the Road , which reaches a national and international audience.

The ICC also continued its partnership with the University of Liverpool to deliver accredited Irish language classes funded by the Irish Government. During the reporting period, students enrolled through this programme received full student status with access to University resources. Irish language tutors are employed by the University of Liverpool.

Cultural activity during the year

Throughout the year, the ICC presented an extensive programme of Irish music, performance and participatory cultural activity.

IRISH CULTURAL CENTRE, HAMMERSMITH LTD REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE DETAILS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

The music programme included performances by established and emerging traditional and contemporary Irish musicians and ensembles, alongside regular céilí nights and family-focused music events.

The ICC’s theatre programme continued to develop, presenting Irish drama, comedy and storytelling, alongside touring productions and one-person shows. The film programme included Irish feature films and documentaries, with selected screenings followed by discussions and Q&A sessions with filmmakers and contributors.

The literature programme included book launches, author talks, poetry readings and themed discussion events, delivered both independently and in partnership with other literary and cultural organisations. Regular open-mic poetry nights continued, alongside creative writing courses, with students presenting their work in an annual showcase.

The ICC also continued its annual Irish history lecture series, which attracts strong audiences and features historians and authors examining key themes in Irish history.

Visual arts and digital programme

Visual art exhibitions during the year included painting and photography by Irish artists, supported by interpretive material and public engagement events.

The ICC continued to deliver a free digital programme of Irish arts and culture through its YouTube channel and ICC Digital platform, including recorded concerts, interviews with writers, artists and filmmakers, and cultural discussion content, extending access beyond the Centre’s physical location.

Purposes and public benefit

Charitable objects

The charity’s purposes, as set out in its Memorandum and Articles of Association, are to advance the public’s education in the history and culture of Ireland by maintaining an Irish Cultural Centre which provides an open-access programme of Irish arts, music and community activities of high quality and attracts people of all ages, interests and diverse backgrounds.

Focus of the charity’s work

In order to further its charitable objects, the ICC aims to:

IRISH CULTURAL CENTRE, HAMMERSMITH LTD REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE DETAILS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

provide an events programme that celebrates Irish culture and balances traditional and contemporary art forms
advance public education in Irish culture and heritage
encourage intercultural engagement and support other community and voluntary sector organisations
generate income through a balanced mix of free, low-cost and full-price activities to extend access and ensure sustainability

Review of activities and outcomes

The trustees review the charity’s aims, objectives and activities annually. They assess the outcomes of the previous year’s work and consider how planned activities will contribute to the charity’s purposes before approving them.

The ICC receives restricted funding through the Emigrant Support Programme of the Department of Foreign Affairs of the Irish Government. This funding is subject to quarterly and annual reporting and periodic audit. The trustees record their appreciation for this continued support, alongside funding and support received from other public bodies, trusts, foundations, sponsors and private donors.

Public benefit

All activities undertaken by the ICC are designed to further its charitable purposes for the public benefit. The ICC aims to deliver a programme of Irish arts and culture that is open, inclusive and accessible.

Accessibility is supported through a balance of free, low-cost and ticketed events. Volunteering opportunities are offered across the Centre’s activities, enabling individuals to contribute to the work of the charity while benefiting from participation in its cultural programme.

The ICC’s elders’ programme primarily serves Irish-born pensioners and includes tea dances and daytime cultural activities. The adult education programme attracts participants from Irish and non-Irish backgrounds. Children and young people form a significant proportion of music students, many of whom continue their engagement with the Centre over a number of years.

The ICC maintains an open-door policy and welcomes participants and audiences from all backgrounds.

Community engagement and partnerships

The ICC plays an active role in the wider community through partnerships and outreach. It participates annually in St Patrick’s Day celebrations supported by the Mayor of London and works with local schools, community groups and cultural organisations.

IRISH CULTURAL CENTRE, HAMMERSMITH LTD REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE DETAILS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

The Centre partners with local authorities and cultural initiatives, including borough-wide festivals, Black History Month and Pride celebrations. It also works with other Irish organisations based in London, including Irish Heritage Ltd and the Irish Literary Society.

The ICC makes its facilities available at reduced cost to community and voluntary organisations and continues to develop relationships with public and voluntary sector partners.

The trustees pay due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in determining the charity’s activities.

IRISH CULTURAL CENTRE, HAMMERSMITH LTD NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

1 Summary of significant accounting policies

The following accounting policies have been used consistently in dealing with items which are considered material in relation to the charitable company's financial statements.

1.1General information and basis of preparation

The charity is a company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The members of the company are the trustees named on page 1. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS102 The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) as issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102), the charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) issued in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at their fair value, and are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

1.2Going concern

These financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis. Since March 2020, COVID-19 has been dominating the world social and economic climate. The charity has adapted to the changing situation by holding courses, classes and musical events online, which will continue even as COVID-19 now that the platforms are in place to enable wider reach. The directors are continuously monitoring the situation and recognise that uncertainties exist that may impact significantly on future performance and challenge the applicability of the going concern basis, but there are no foreseeable threats to the ability of the charity its liabilities as they fall due over at least the next 18 months from the signing of the accounts.

1.3Funds

Funds held by the charity are either:

Unrestricted general funds - these are funds which can be used in accordance with the charitable objects at the discretion of the trustees, and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Restricted funds - these are funds that 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.

1.4Income recognition

All income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the charity is legally entitled to the income after any performance conditions have been met, the amount can be measured reliably, and it is probable that the income will be received.

For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of performance before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred until those conditions are

IRISH CULTURAL CENTRE, HAMMERSMITH LTD NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled.

IRISH CULTURAL CENTRE, HAMMERSMITH LTD NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

1.3Income recognition (continued)

No amount is included in the financial statements for volunteer time in line with the SORP (FRS 102). Further detail is given in the Trustees’ Annual Report.

Income from trading activities includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities to raise funds for the charity. Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and services in order to raise funds and is recognised when entitlement has occurred.

The charity receives government grants as detailed in Note 2. Income from government and other grants 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.

1.4 Expenditure recognition

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payments to third parties, it is probable that the settlement will be required, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. It is categorised under the following heading:

Expenditure on charitable activities includes Programme costs, governance costs and other expenditure including depreciation.

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as an expense against the activity for which expenditure arose.

1.5 Fixed assets

Fixed assets are recorded at cost or, in cases where fixed assets have been donated to the Irish Cultural Centre, Hammersmith Ltd, at valuation at the time of acquisition.

1.6 Depreciation

Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write down the cost or valuation, less estimated residual value, of all tangible fixed assets, with the exception of freehold land, over their expected useful economic lives as follows:

Freehold land and buildings not depreciated (see note below) Office equipment and fixtures and fittings 33% on cost

No depreciation charge is made for the freehold building. The trustees carry out an annual impairment review to ensure the carrying value of the freehold building is fairly stated, and in the opinion of the trustees the net book value as shown in note 10 represents the fair value.

1.7 Taxation

No provision has been made for corporation tax or deferred tax as the charity is an exempt charity within the meaning of schedule 3 of the Charities Act 2011 and is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010, and therefore meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes.
