**REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** 

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2023. 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's Memorandum and Articles, the Companies Act 2006and "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)" (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016). 

## **Objectives and activities** 

The charity's objects are to foster and develop the arts in the unitary council area of Milton Keynes and adjoining areas. To achieve this we carry out a range of activities including providing creative hubs for subscribing members, providing information and regular networking events in Milton Keynes and promoting and delivering creative programmes including MK Litfest, Changed World Art Zone and Festival of Nations, much of them perforce on-line. The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

During the year we continued to develop our creative hub at 20, Burners Lane Kiln Farm, which we hold on a 12-year lease. Over the year we accommodated around 120 creatives in workspaces there, with up to 65 at any time. We continued with fundraising for, and construction of our new presentation space that when complete will allow public access to a wide range of public exhibition and performance, thus reinstating the programmes delivered from our previous premises. We continued MK Litfest online in the face of Covid, delivering a programme larger and more successful than initially planned, resourcing the programme from Litfest reserves and a small grant from MK Council. We continued our other on-line activities under lockdown, including the Changed World Art Zone Interactive gallery, and Live at the Kiln music streaming events in partnership with Community Arts Resources Centre. We remain active participants in AHA MK, the umbrella for MKs Arts and Heritage sector, and in the SEMLEP Creative and Cultural advisory group. And we collaborated with MK Play Association on delivering holiday arts schemes in disadvantaged parts of MK. 

## **Financial review** 

During the year incoming resources were £146,409 predominantly from our studios at Arts Central, and significant grants from the Arts Council, Garfield Weston Foundation and MK Council, an increase from £123,852 the year before. After capitalising the first two years of our building project for depreciation over the remaining ten years of the lease, our spending during the 2022/23 year was £151,038 compared to £134,128 the year before. We ended the year with balances of £86,089 being a reduction of £4,629 on the previous year. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level that will meet aggregate expectations of liability, assessed by Trustees in 2018 as around £25k to be kept under review. This has again been fully achieved during 2022/23. The charity has restricted reserves from grants previously received to deliver specific projects, specifically at this point  relating to the MK Literary Festival. Restricted funds for our presentation space from Arts Council England and MK Community Foundation have been fully expended. The Charity has no endowments or legacies. 

## **Risk management** 

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks. 

## **Plans for the future** 

Our plans for the future continue to revolve around three key issues: 

- Improvement of our premises at Burners Lane. This will imminently enable access by the general public and reinstatement of creative programmes across multiple genres including art, dance, music and literature, where MK Litfest is our flagship; 

- Development of a broader service to creatives both within Arts Central and in the wider community, to

**REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023** 

help people build sustainable practices within MKs cultural infrastructure; 

- Maintenance of a higher profile across Milton Keynes, engaging a wider spectrum of stakeholders including business, building partnership and collaboration wherever possible. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Structure, governance and management** 

The charity is a company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 27 May 2008 in England and Wales, company number 06602989 and is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended on 11November 2008. The charity is registered with the Charity Commission on 24 November 2008.The trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:

Potential trustees with an interest in the arts and with skills to contribute to the charity's strategy and development are recruited from the local Milton Keynes community. The Memorandum and Articles of Association provide for up to 12 Trustees to be appointed by the Board, currently with no time limit on period served.

The Board intends to increase the number of Trustees and ensure we remain fit for purpose going forward.

**INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF ARTS GATEWAY MK LIMITED** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Arts Gateway MK Limited ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2023. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the 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 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 2011 ('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.

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

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.

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

Land and building - 10% on cost Fixtures and fittings - 25% on cost

## **FUND ACCOUNTING**

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **PENSION COSTS AND OTHER POST-RETIREMENT BENEFITS** 

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate. 

## **GOING CONCERN** 

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.
