## **Trustees’ Annual Report** 

## **Charity Details** 

HMRC (tax) number:  XT25487 Charity number: 1145665 

Reboot the Roots is made up of a small group of five trustees supporting a volunteer Creative Director who leads on most of the projects plus a wider team of volunteers who take ownership and delivery for a range of funded projects and workshops. 

Volunteers and collectives who have an idea for a project, approach the trustees with a written proposal which is then presented to and considered by the trustees. If they vote in agreement, considering the merits of the project and the funds available, the project is funded based on a 50/50 contract where the second half of funding is paid on receipt of a suitable report and project evaluation. 

## **Projects 2020/21** 

The Covid-19 pandemic put a stop to the majority of our opportunities to fund projects, with a couple of exceptions: 

## **ULEX – La Bolina** 

We successfully secured Erasmus funding again in partnership with ULEX/La Bolina partnership which enabled a range of facilitators and students to travel to Spain to take part in workshops. 

## **Slovenia 2020** 

Funded a facilitator to attend the 8th Annual Festival of the Theatre of the Oppressed in Gornji Grad, Slovenia.
