Report of the Trustees for the year ending 31 March 2022

The Trustees are pleased to present their annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ending 31 March 2022.

The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and 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).

Introduction: About Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust

Pitzhanger Manor was designed and built in 1800 by one of Britain’s leading architects, Sir John Soane (whose other buildings include the Bank of England and Dulwich Picture Gallery), as his personal country retreat in the then rural village of Ealing. Pitzhanger is vitally important in the Soane story as a rare example of a building Soane designed, built and lived in himself; Soane used it as a laboratory for his architectural ideas, including his trademark use of caryatids, the canopy domed ceilings, the application of idiosyncratic classical details and his innovative use of light as an architectural tool. The Grade I listed house represents an extraordinary architectural statement bursting with his influence, ideas and flourishes: it is an artistic tour de force.

Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust was established in 2012 to work with Ealing Council, the owners of Pitzhanger Manor, to conserve, repair and enhance Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery as a major cultural landmark for West London and beyond: a destination for art, education, and architecture. The project’s aim was to transform the Manor, its adjacent Gallery and the surrounding gardens and Kitchen Garden, and to offer learning and enjoyment for all with an extensive outreach programme. The Trust built a restaurant – known as Soane’s Kitchen - in the old Kitchen Garden and also constructed a Volunteer and Community Space in the courtyard of the Lodge which opened in May 2022. On completion of the three-year capital project in 2018, the Trust took over the running of the site under a 25-year lease and a management agreement. The Trust’s executive team are overseen by an experienced Board of Trustees, and the Trust works closely with Ealing Council, the architects, consultants, and contractors, to deliver the project and manage the site.

Objectives and Activities

Mission

Building on the dual foundation of Soane’s 1800 Manor and parkland and of the contemporary Gallery, Pitzhanger will unite the past and the present and inspire the future.

Our mission is:

1

Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust

Delivering Public Benefit

The Trustees confirm that they have fulfilled the duty in Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission general guidance on public benefit.

The Trust’s overarching aim is, through restoring and revealing this important historic building and by upgrading the art gallery, to promote appreciation of national heritage and of art, and provide both learning opportunities and recreation for our diverse communities. Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust also has the general aim of contributing to the quality of life of the people of the London Borough of Ealing by expanding their horizons in offering exciting, challenging, and accessible education programmes, events, and exhibitions.

Achievements and Performance

SUMMARY

Closed for COVID Lockdown till 27 May 2021; open with restricted capacity thereafter due to Social Distancing Total Visitors: 28,009 Total Education and Outreach Engagements: 6,085 Total Digital Subscribers: 17,395

Total Number of Exhibitions: Six (This is Ealing; Soane Restored; Julian Opie; Who Are We? Navigating Race, Class and the City; This is England; Rana Begum: Dappled Light)

2021-22 has been a challenging year for Pitzhanger, as for all arts organisations and museums, due to the Covid pandemic. Pitzhanger had to remain closed for the first two months of the year, reopening at the end of May 2021. Once we re-opened social distancing measures limited visitor numbers, with many visitors remaining reluctant to return to visitor attractions and others reluctant to travel and meant that post lockdown visitor numbers remained challenging. Just as visitors were growing in confidence and visitor numbers rising in the autumn, the UK succumbed to Omicron and visitor numbers radically reduced again. Unfortunately Pitzhanger’s restaurant Soane’s Kitchen was forced to close in late December.

Notwithstanding all these challenges, Pitzhanger has had a very successful year by many measures: we have delivered an exciting, varied and accessible programme of six exhibitions over the period, continuing and enhancing Pitzhanger’s reputation for high quality cultural experiences accessible to all. We have beaten the Covid-adjusted target of visitor engagements.

In June 2021 we introduced artworks outside the Gallery with the aim of engaging visitors who do not usually visit museums and galleries, and helping to break down the barriers to a visit. Two artworks by Julian Opie were installed, in the front garden of Pitzhanger and in Walpole Park.

These works were really successful in engaging new visitors – particularly young families. We have therefore continued this experiment and have newly installed a glass sculpture by Rana Begum in Pitzhanger’s gardens: it is already attracting enormous interest from passing families, who enjoy playing in the colourful shadows from the sculpture.

Curation

This is Ealing (27 May – 6 June 2021) – A community-led exhibition of photos taken by Ealing residents over lockdown.

Soane Restored (27 May – Spring 2023) - An exhibition celebrating the skilled research and craft work involved in the recent restoration of Pitzhanger.

Julian Opie (25 June – 24 October 2021) - A display of sculptures, lightboxes and moving figures by leading British proponent of pop-art Julian Opie; including two works located outside: Crows (in Walpole Park) and Curly Hair striding towards the Manor.

This is England (6-14 November 2021) - An exhibition of 27 portraits by Matt Small of the England Euro 2020 men’s football team, celebrating the teamwork, diversity and inclusiveness demonstrated by this role-model team. The squad included Ealing- raised Bukayo Saka. Visiting school children enjoyed finding their local hero in the exhibition.

Who Are We? Navigating Race, Class and the City (26 November 2021 – 13 Feb 2022) - An exhibition cocreated with Bollo Studios, the creative arm of local Bollo Brook Youth Centre, in South Acton. The multimedia exhibition explored the complex challenges this group of predominantly black and minority ethnic young people face as they carve out their place in the world, interrogating our social conditioning and understanding of race, class and the city.

Rana Begum: Dappled Light : opened 25 March 2022: a contemplative and accessible exhibition of stunning structures by Rana Begum RA that blur the boundary between art, sculpture, and focus attention on their changing appearance with the movement of light throughout the day. The works interplay well with Soane’s own use of light in his architecture. Sculptures and installations were sited not just out in the gardens but also across the Manor to entice more visitors to explore across Pitzhanger.

Co-programming events with Bollo helped draw in new young audiences to Pitzhanger.

Learning and Outreach

After the challenge of Covid which made schools visits very challenging, we redesigned and relaunched our education programme and are laying solid foundations for delivering our aspiration to engage every school in the Borough of Ealing in a meaningful way. School projects have included the Architects’ Apprentice course, and visits to the exhibitions Julian Opie and This is England. Unable to deliver family workshops in spring 2021due to Covid, we instead delivered Pitz Packs – activity packs for children to do at home and outside in the Park, distributed through community groups and foodbanks. From the summer, real-life family workshops have been re-introduced, together with new trails to guide visitors round the site and a new monthly ‘Open Sunday’ with free activities for visitors. We are delighted that despite the challenging conditions we delivered over 6,000 learning engagements.

Events

In response to lockdown we sought to develop ways in which we could continue to engage our visitors in virtual events. We developed two new strands of online events: Pitzhanger Perspectives , in which interesting experts in their fields were interviewed by one of the wider Pitzhanger team, and Pitzhanger Design Series in which panels of design experts discussed different topics, from the power of paint to the art of wallpaper, starting from Pitzhanger’s own decoration but moving on to current trends in the design world.

As social distancing lifted, events became ‘hybrid, with events taking place in person on site, but also relayed online to those unable to attend in real life. Digital engagement was developed further, with online activities designed for children and families.

Through the year Pitzhanger was also used as a venue for a variety of community events.

Conservation

Our commitment to conservation of Sir John Soane’s historic house has been sustained with careful maintenance of the historic fabric. During the year we commissioned specialist decorators to re-bronze Soane’s four Eating Room statues, to take them back to the original decorative finish that Soane would have had. The Soane Restored exhibition, together with related talks and demonstrations, put a spotlight on the conservation and craft skills employed during the building project.

Fundraising

Fundraising is undertaken by a small in-house development team. The Trust is registered with the Fundraising Regulator whose Code of Fundraising Practice and Fundraising Promise set a standard for fundraising activity in the UK.

Fundraising strategy focuses on securing support via statutory funders, charitable trusts and foundations and individuals, selecting the most appropriate source of funding for each project for which support is being sought. In the year to 31 March 2022 the main fundraising focus continued to be securing emergency funding to support the losses incurred by temporary Covid closure and completing the fundraising for the project to build a new Volunteer and Community Space on Pitzhanger's grounds.

Pitzhanger takes a considered approach to fundraising ensuring that we comply with regulations and guidance related to data protection and the protection of vulnerable people, that communications are not excessive or intrusive and that the individuals we contact do not feel under any undue pressure to

6

Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust

donate.

When fundraising is carried out on behalf of Pitzhanger it is with a small group of trusted supporters who promote Pitzhanger through their personal and professional connections. Pitzhanger works closely with these partners to ensure their approach consistently meets the high standards of the museum's own fundraising.

The Trust has received no complaints about its fundraising activities (2021: nil).

Key successes and developments in this period were:

Financial Review

In the year to 31 March 2022, the Trust had a net deficit of £29,747 (2021: surplus of £113,895). This relates to a deficit on unrestricted activities of £474 and a deficit on restricted activities (primarily in respect of the capital project) of £29,273. The movement from the comparative year, a surplus of £113,895 reflects a return to full operations after a period of cost savings during Covid.

Main Funding Sources

The Trust’s operating costs have been supported by a management fee from Ealing Council (£427,000 2021: £427,000), commercial income from visitor admissions (£44,000, 2021: £15,000), other trading income (£220,000, 2021: £166,000) and unrestricted donations from Trusts and Foundations and individuals (£387,000, 2021: £525,000). The Trust also received restricted donations of £150,000 (2021: £212,000) from a range of Trusts and Foundations and individuals mainly in respect of the Volunteer and Community space project. At the end of the year, the Trust held reserves of £1.85 million (2021: £1.89 million), of which £832,000 (2021: £,862,000) were restricted, £500,000 were unrestricted (2021: £530,000) and £517,000 (2021: £487,000) were unrestricted but designated. The restricted reserves largely relate to the Trust’s pledged contribution to the Restoration Project and the Community Hub

7

Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust

development project. Unrestricted but designated reserves relate to a sinking fund for future maintenance costs, development of the public programme and general operational support during this post-Covid recovery period.

Investment Policy

As most of the charity’s funds are to be spent in the short term, there are no funds for long-term investment. Our funds are therefore held in a current account and a short-term deposit account.

Reserves Policy

Restricted reserves are set-aside in the short-term deposit account. Otherwise, the Trust’s reserves are unrestricted and the use of the funds representing them is at the discretion of the Trustees acting within the terms of the charity’s governing document. The Trustees may designate all or part of the unrestricted reserves for specific purposes. The Trustees review the level of reserves as part of the regular planning process.

Prior to the pandemic the Trust adopted a policy of holding three months’ core operating costs in reserve which was equivalent to £250,000. During the recent pandemic the Trustees took a cautious approach to the maintenance of reserves until the length or severity of the pandemic and its implications for the business and closure of the site could be assessed with a reasonable level of expectation that a more normal situation was returning with some reliability. Accordingly, for the duration of lockdown, a higher level of reserves was retained. However, the expectation is that we will spend down the reserves in the current financial year and return closer to the reserves situation prior to Covid. The reserves policy is reviewed as part of the budget process annually. At the end of the year, free reserves (unrestricted and designated) were £1.02 million which the Trustees acknowledge are in excess of the minimum reserve requirement.

Going Concern

The Charitable Group and Trust’s working capital is provided by a combination of its charitable, fund raising and trading activities. The outbreak of Covid -19 caused significant disruption to the Charitable Group and Trust’s activities, resulting in a significant loss of commercial income. In mitigation, the Trust has received emergency funding from a number of sources and taken steps to reduce its cost base whilst its activities are curtailed.

The Board has assessed the prospects of the Charitable Group and Trust over the 12 months from the date of approval of the Annual Report and Financial Statements taking into account its expectations for future operating activities, fundraising and the risks that the Trust faces (including Covid -19). In addition, the Trust has performed a sensitivity analysis on its forecasts to evaluate a severe but plausible downside scenario on the business of the impact of Covid-19 and other risks.

Having completed these assessments, the Board has a reasonable expectation that the Charitable Group and Trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, being a minimum of 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements, and thus continues to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. The Trustees note that continued solvent operation beyond the twelve month period will require an increase in commercial revenues and fundraising support.

Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities for the year ended 31 March 2022

The Trustees, who are also the directors of Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust for the purpose of company law, are responsible 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).

A combination of 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 charity and the group and of the the income and expenditure of the charitable group for that year.

In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and the group 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 charity and the group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Each Trustee confirms that:

This confirmation is given and should be interpreted in accordance with the provisions of s418 of the Companies Act 2006.

Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust (the ‘parent charity’) and its subsidiary (the 'group') for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the consolidated statement of financial activities, the group and charity balance sheets, the consolidated statement of cash flows and the notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion, the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorized for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The Trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report and Financial Statements. The other information comprises the information contained within the Annual Report and Financial Statements, other than the Financial Statements and our auditors report therein. Our opinion on the financial statement does not cover the other other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do no express . Other information any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent

16

Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust

material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and parent charity and their environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors’ report included within the Trustees' report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of Trustees

As explained more fully in the statement of Trustees' responsibilities, the Trustees, who are also the directors of the charity for the purpose of company law, are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the group or parent charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

17

Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below.

As part of our planning process;

The key procedures we undertook to detect irregularities including fraud during the course of the audit included:

There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of noncompliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the trustees and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.

Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/ auditors' responsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

18

Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2022

Accounting Policies

The main accounting policies are summarised below. The accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout the period.

(a) Company information

Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust is a charitable company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Mattock Lane, Ealing, London W5 5EQ.

(b) Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2011 and "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)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The group financial statements reflect the results and combined financial position of Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust and Pitzhanger Trading Limited. As permitted by s408 of the Companies Act 2006, the parent charitable company has not presented its own income and expenditure account and related notes.

(c) Going Concern

As set out in the Financial Review, the Board has assessed the prospects of the Charitable Group and Trust over the 12 months from the date of approval of the Annual Report and Financial Statements taking into account its expectations for future operating activities, fundraising and the risks that the Trust faces. In addition, the Trust has performed a sensitivity analysis on its forecasts to evaluate a severe but plausible downside scenario on the business of the lasting impact of Covid-19 and other risks.

Having completed these assessments, the Board has a reasonable expectation that the Charitable Group and Trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, being a minimum of 12 months from the date of approval of the Financial Statements and thus continues to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

(d) Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. The Trustees may designate all or part of the unrestricted reserves for specific purposes.

Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal.

(e) Income

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

23

Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust

Income from grants and donations is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement, receipt is probable, and the amount can be measured reliably. Contractual and trading income is recognised as income to the extent that the associated goods or services have been provided. Where income is received in advance and the charity does not have entitlement to these resources until the goods or services have been provided, the income is deferred. Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity. This is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

(f) Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.

Raising funds comprise costs of market research, communication and raising funds. Charitable expenditure comprises the direct costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities such as outreach, along with support and governance costs. Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the costs of the independent auditor and costs linked to the management of the charity.

(g) Donations of volunteer time

In accordance with the Charities SORP volunteer time is not recognised.

(h) Donations of goods for resale

The Trust is in receipt of regular donations of small items for resale in the retail shop. In accordance with the Charities SORP these are recognised as income when sold. The proceeds of sale are categorised as Retail Sales in Income from other trading activities.

(i) Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets costing more than £500 are capitalised and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are:

(j) Leasehold improvements and amortisation

Leasehold Improvements costing more than £500 are capitalised and amortised over their estimated useful life.

Amortisation commences from the date the Leasehold Improvements are brought into use to the end of the lease on 15 March 2044.

(k) Financial Instruments

The Charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

The Charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial

24

Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust

instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

(l) Bank

Cash at bank includes balances in the current account and short-term deposit account that can be accessed immediately.

(m) Taxation

As a charity, Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust is exempt from tax on income and gains falling within section 505 of the Taxes Act 1988 or S.256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 to the extent that these are applied to its charitable objects.

(n) Investments in Subsidiaries

Investment in Pitzhanger Trading Limited, a wholly owned trading subsidiary of Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery Trust, is at cost.

(m) Stocks

Stock relates to items held in the shop at year end and are recorded at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

(n) Critical accounting estimates and judgements

The Trustees are satisfied that there are no significant estimates or judgements included in the financial statements.
