Sarah Large||| 2 ## **Trustee’s Report** For the Year Ended 31st May 2022 The Trustees present their annual report for the year ended 31st May 2022, incorporating the Reference and Administrative information on Page 1. ## Structure Governance and Management The Trust was established by Trust Deed on the 4th August 2012 and was registered by the Charity Commission on 8th August 2012. Under the Deed the power to appoint Trustees, of which there shall be at least four, is vested in the existing Trustees. The Trustees met 4 times during the year in pursuance of our objectives. ## Objectives and Activities The objectives of the charity are: the promotion of the voluntary sector for the public benefit by the production of films which promote volunteering and the voluntary sector. Big Picture is a UK based Registered Charity who exist to help other charities and voluntary organisations tell their stories and raise awareness of their causes. As part of our DNA, Big Picture believes that charities should be able to hold on to the vast majority of their funds and be able to use them in their projects. ## Financial Review The financial statements are included in this Report for the year and the financial situation at 31st May 2022. The Trustees are encouraged by the strong financial foundation and look forward to making more high quality films that promote volunteering and the voluntary sector in the future. ## Trustees responsibilities 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 charity for that year. In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are required to: - Select suitable accounting policies and the apply them consistently - Observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP - Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent and - Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the charity will continue in business. The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 1993. They are responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Trust and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud or other irregularities. The Trustees have had regard to the public benefit general guidance issued by the Charity Commission. They believe that the description of the Charity’s activities in this annual report evidences that those activities carry out the Charity’s aims for the public benefit. On behalf of the Trustees, ## **Steve Higgins (Chairperson)** 3 ## **Chairperson’s Report** For the Year Ended 31st May 2022 As charities continue to emerge from such an incredibly difficult COVID season we hope to work with them in what are still very challenging circumstances. We wouldn’t have been able to make films for other charities without our own fundraising projects: the London 10Km run in July, Nik running the London Marathon in October and the Ride London 100 mile cycle ride - thank you so much to all those people who took part in these events and all those that supported them. We weren’t able to run our annual Quiz Night but hope to in the forthcoming year. The Trustees would also like to thank those individuals who support BPCF with regular and one-off donations. Without your support we wouldn’t have been able to finance the films we have made. You really are helping make a difference, one film at a time! The Trustees continue to give 10% of our annual income to other charities. 4 Independent Examinerfs Report Inde dent £xamiDer'8 re rt to the Trusttts of B.
