Soundwaves Music Project – Annual Report 2023-2024 Registered Charity No: 1126276
Introduction:
As in the previous 2 years we have been in a position of just maintaining our current service, with no extra activity or planned expansion taking place. Therefore, it was felt that a full Annual Report was not warranted and have just produced this simpler single page. We were planning to try and extend our provision, to running another regular music group but failed to obtain the funding needed. Activities were also restricted following a major health issue for our Chief Officer, Adrian, who was taken out of action for about 8 weeks and then had to do a timed return to work.
Trustees
Our current listed Trustees have remained in place but we still need to expand the board, so that we can make better progress in rebuilding after the knockbacks, still being felt from the Pandemic.
Funding
Fortunately, we continued to receive our annual grant from J Van Mars Foundation and received funding from ‘The Woodsies Stage Fire Stewards’ at the Glastonbury Festival. We also received funding through Awards For All. Overall this meant our Income was very slightly more than our Outgoings but only by a few hundred pounds. (See the separate CC16a accounts statement for details).
Going Forwards
As can be seen by the end of year balance Soundwaves Music Project is not in great shape, although financial projections show that we can make it through another financial year. Therefore, we will continue to operate at our current level and hold back any ambitions to expand until we are in a better financial position.
