## Trustees’ Report
Cambridge Woodwind Makers was incorporated on 26 October 2011. The Trustees (who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act) present their annual report together with the financial statement of Cambridge Woodwind Makers for the year ended 31 October 2022. The trustees confirm that the Annual Report and financial statements of the Charity comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirement of the Charity’s governing documents and the provision of the Statement of Recommended Practices (SORP) “Accounting and Report by Charities” issued in October 2020. .
## Structure, governance and management
Cambridge Woodwind Makers is a Company limited by guarantee which was incorporated on 26 October 2011 and is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association of the same date. The Company obtained charitable status on 29 February 2012. The Trustees who served during the year were:Daniel Bangham Phyllis L Champion Colin RE Hamilton.
The management of the Charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected under the terms of the Articles of Association. Trustees are appointed who will bring practical and valuable skills to the Charity.
Objectives and Activities The Charity has been set up to undertake the day to day running of Cambridge Woodwind Makers and Cambridge Makers, which is a studio and workshop set up to preserve and promote art and artisanship. During the period, the Trustees have borne in mind the Charity Commissions Guidance on the principles of public benefit. The principal objective of the Charity is to preserve the art of woodwind instrument making and repair and other creative arts and crafts. The charity provides workshops and courses to teach these theories and skills.
## Review of Activities
2022 was another challenging year due aftermath of the corona virus. We have retained a loyal and supportive team of tutors and students who have kept in touch with each other and with our charity and are keen to attend courses as soon as they are allowed too.
We have been very encouraged by the response by our arts and crafts tutors and participants, who have been returning to the workshop for courses with increasing numbers.
It has be difficult year to attract students to the woodwind making courses, as we traditionally had quite a few overseas students. Leaving the EU and aftermath of covid has made it a less attractive proposition.
## Financial Review
Total funds carried forward as at 31 October 2022 were £8489 and the Trustees are satisfied that this is an acceptable level of reserves. Total incoming resources for the year were £109,242 a considerable improvement on the previous year. However total resources expended for the year amounted to £106,888 which includes the daily running expenses of the workshop and studio and a one off change as to how we record money owed to Tutors. We now record an accrual to the tutor, the moment we start taking payments from students for the upcoming course. This better reflects our true financial position. It has no effect on our cashflow situation, which remains good.
## Trustees’ Responsibility Statement
The Trustees (who are also directors of Cambridge Woodwind Makers for the purposes of company law) are responsibly for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). Company and charity law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
- Make judgments and estimate that are reasonable and prudent;
• Prepare the financial statement on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
In preparing this report, the Trustees have taken advantage of the small companies exemptions provided by section 415A of the Companies Act 2006.

**Independent examiner's report on the accounts**
## **Section A Independent Examiner’s Report**
**Report to the trustees/ members of**
Charity Name Cambridge Woodwind Makers
**On accounts for the year** 31st October 2022 **Charity no** 1146167 **ended (if any) Set out on pages** 6-10
**Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner**
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).
The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Act and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
- to follow the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Act, and
- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention
**Basis of independent examiner’s statement**
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

**Independent examiner's statement**
In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
- the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
- the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
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.
