TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

Chair's Report

Welcome to the 2020/21 Annual Report for Central Youth Theatre (CYT).

The last year has certainly been an eventful one for CYT. Along with the rest of society and the arts/third sector worlds we have had to adjust to new ways of working and the rapidly changing environment that resulted from the Covid-19 pandemic. I have been so impressed by how the CYT team rose to this challenge, to engage with our members, to serve the wider public interest and, more importantly, keep CYT ‘alive’ during this personally difficult time.

During these challenging times we have continued to press on with transformation of CYT. Our search for a permanent base/home continues. Annie-Fletcher-Hall joined the team to act as cover for Director Holly Parry’s maternity leave and our founding Director Jane Ward reduced her time with us. I am so grateful for how Jane, Holly and Annie have navigated us through the year, without them CYT would not be in the position we are today.

Finally, the government and local authority financial support we have received over the 12 months means we start the 21/22 season in has strong a financial position as we could have hoped for. Let’s hope this will mean we will be able to return to normal in September, and begin the journey to rebuild CYT.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

Directors' Report

The year that no one foresaw

Looking back at the annual report, written in Spring 2020, when we had just entered into the early days of the “World of Covid” – we had so little idea of how great the challenges and changes were going to be and just how far-reaching they would become.

Twelve months on we are looking back at a year in which all productions we were rehearsing had to be cancelled. Initially we believed we were postponing and picking them up after a short break – so it was truly heart-breaking to realise that none could be saved.

These shows included:

• Queen Victoria: A Very Modern Family - by CYT seniors in April at Wolverhampton Art Gallery

• Jungle Book - by our Acting Up Group in April at Newhampton Arts Centre (NAC)

• The British Are Leaving - seniors in May at NAC and at the Sapperlot International Theatre Festival in

• Northern Italy This Beautiful Fantastic –Juniors in June at NAC.

• Journey to the River Sea - Juniors in June at NAC.

• Double Standards – Seniors in July at NAC.

Not only were shows cancelled but all weekly meetings and activities hard-hit by lockdown and we were unable to deliver face-to-face work with young people for nearly four months in Spring /Summer, followed by further closures in November and then Jan- April 2021.

We quickly realised the importance of adapting our offer to sustain our members’ interest in youth theatre and to help with their mental health during this difficult time so throughout the year we have been operating with a combination of digital and outdoor projects.

In April 2020 we launched the Four Walls Project - a flexible rolling programme of activities enabling people to dip in out of as much or as little as they chose. The activities included:

• Weekly Zoom meetings - sometimes run by our leaders - but also, as time went on, members were encouraged to deliver online workshops, quizzes or other activities.

• Challenges for members to make online films and tutorials about what new skills they were learning during lockdown.

· The construction of a poem about lockdown written by a member and then filmed and recorded by more than 50 members. This was uploaded to YouTube and social media and shared by Wolverhampton City Council’s Facebook page - subsequently being viewed more than 8,800 times.

· Monday Members' news – a weekly film roun-up of things people had done at home – e.g. putting up NHS rainbows, spotting wildlife, baking cakes etc.

As physical movement restrictions eased we started delivering projects that weren’t online.

The Monologue Trail – junior and senior members performing a monologue on each other’s doorsteps – culminating in a final performance with all watching the final monologue performed in West Park’s bandstand. We created a film of the trail for all to see each other’s efforts and the physical journey that everyone had been on across the borough.

The Doorstep Theatre Show - funded by Children in Need and the Heart of England Foundation - a performance with four senior members staged on doorsteps or in gardens of members living with disabilities or additional needs who were shielding and had not been able to go out and about in society even after restrictions were lifted.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

Finally in August we were able to deliver a two-week open air summer school in the Courtyard at NAC with the theme was Star Gazing – inspiring young people to follow their dreams. It was a mixture of drama, dance and creative art workshops and culminated in a number of socially distanced promenade performances on the first Sunday in September.

The summer school was a resounding success with 53 young people taking part – all desperate for something practical to do and to be given a forum in which they could socialise with their peers.

In September we had our first weekly meeting of autumn term – welcoming back members into the meeting room. Of course life was no longer the same and we had to operate with reduced group sizes, shorter session lengths, new cleaning/sanitising regimes etc.

We tried to plan an evening of socially distanced duologues in November with an audience capacity of 28 people in a 120 seater theatre. However, with further lockdowns, these were postponed until the end of February and then again to June 21.

During winter term we engaged with former members to deliver a series of online career seminars. We also offered a varied programme of online artistic activities with the emphasis on fun as members were increasingly beginning to struggle with the demands of all education and social life being online. Our Acting Up group, for young people with living with disabilities and additional needs have continued to meet online and have created three very successful film projects during the year.

To survive the financial turbulence we furloughed staff, used business interruption schemes, got emergency grant funding, held online fundraisers and attracted private donations.

Midway through the year we decided not to take on Burdett House - (a building offered to us by the council as an asset transfer) - as costs of renovating it would have been enormous – and with challenges of “surviving” as an organisation it was felt we could not take it on.

Good news was Director Holly Parry’s first child – George. She and baby are doing well – and I am sure there is a future CYT member in the making. Holly took maternity leave in February and ex-member Annie FletcherHall is Acting Director during her leave.

We know 2021/22 will be a challenging year – not least rebuilding membership and finding new ways of working artistically while continuing to adapt to living with the virus.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of Central Youth Theatre for the year 1 April 2020 to 31 March 2021. The Annual report serves as a Trustees’ report and a directors’ report under company law. The Trustees confirm the Annual report and the financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the company’s governing document and the provision of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019).

Since the company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the Strategic Report required of a medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulation 2013 has been omitted.

Structure, Governance and Management

Central Youth Theatre (CYT) was registered as a company limited by guarantee on 31 May 2007. It has no share capital and is a registered charity. The guarantee of each member is limited to £1. The governing documents are the Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association of the company, and members of the Board of Trustees are Directors of the company.

CYT is governed by a board of Trustees who are appointed at the Annual General Meeting.

Nominations to the board are limited to residents of Wolverhampton and the surrounding area who have an active interest in the work of the company. CYT currently has a board of 9 members drawn from a broad section of the community bringing their own skills and experience in the performing arts, education, public/voluntary sector and commerce. The board appoint a freelance Artistic Director to develop and direct all CYT artistic activities, contributing to the strategic development of the company.

Public Benefit

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to the general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance ‘Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)’.

CYT is the only youth theatre group in the city successfully integrating people with disabilities into our artistic projects. This has an enormous positive impact on the selfesteem of not only the disabled young people, but also creates awareness of the importance and value of this work for other members.

Objects of the company

To advance the education of young people under the age of 26 living in Wolverhampton and the surrounding area in all aspects of the art of drama and theatre production and the development of public appreciation of such art.

Our Vision

Connecting young people in Wolverhampton, nurturing their abilities and inspiring them to shape the cultural life of the city in innovative, dynamic and diverse artistic ways.

Aims

To offer young people of every background and ability the opportunity to be involved in all aspects of the creative arts in an open and safe environment within the City of Wolverhampton.

To build confidence and skills, enabling young people to learn through creative, fun, aspirational projects, workshops and performances, as well as opportunities to undertake international work.

To advocate the intrinsic value of artistic and cultural activities to the social and economic wellbeing of individuals and in the communities we work in.

Financial Review

This year was a reasonable year for CYT. Our income was £91,280 and expenditure £61,260. General unrestricted funds are £42,150 so remain at a fully acceptable level. Designated funds £50,000.

Reserves policy

The company aims to hold general (unrestricted) reserves of between three and six months running costs. The present reserves represent twelve months essential costs.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

1. General information

The company is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Memorandum of Association in May 2007.

The principal object of the company is to advance the education of young people under the age of 26, living within Wolverhampton and the surrounding area in all aspects of the art of drama and theatre production and the development of public appreciation of such art

2. Accounting policies

2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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 2015), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

Central Youth Theatre meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.

2.2 Income

All income is recognised once the company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.

2.3 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

2. Accounting policies (continued)

2.4 Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the company; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.

2.5 Taxation

The company is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the company is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

2.6 Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

2.7 Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

2.8 Liabilities and provisions

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of financial activities as a finance cost.

2.9 Financial instruments

The company only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
