The charitable company delivered several activities in the year, attracting new and exists'ng audiences lo the gallery and studios. The focus for the organisation for the 23124 period of activity has been lo implement organisational structure review and operational improvements to better support finances, governance, and delivery of public as well as studio programmes. The Managing Directors proposed a 20ty/0 Studio rent increase that was approved by the Trustees. A consultation meeting. led by the Trustees, was held with studio members to finalise the details of a new studio membership contract to reflect this change. Studio members were provided with options for payment plans to support this transition. The Trustees started a full review of rent arrears from previous years to gain an understanding of this ongoing challenge before the Implementation of the proposed rent increase. The outcome of this is a Studio Members Map and a Rent Arrears List. In January 2024, the cohort of Managing Directors stepped down due to e difference in their interests end the organisation's objectives. The Trustees carried out a transformation of the Managing Directors, responsibilities to establish a shared understanding of the voluntary role. Furthermore, the Trustees created a Contlnuous Profes51onal Development for the Managlng Dlrectors lo provide access to mentoring from the Trustees. maslerclasses and shadowing opportunities, The title Artist Lead has been retired and the title Managing Director has been reinstated to signify Ihe duty of this role. Feedback from Studio Members gener8ted a drive to strengthen the re181ionship between the Trustees, Managing Directors and Studio Members. The Trustees offered masterclas5es to the Studio Members during the 2024 Summer period. This was followed by a Summer Social in June 2024 for the Studio Members.

TRS Gallery Company Registration Number- 06988365 Trustees. Annual Report for the year ended 31 August 2024 Future Plans The Royal Standard's improvement journey remains under constant review, as we look for ways to improve the developtnenl of our Managing Directors a5 future leaders in the sector and the benefits we provide to our Studio Members. alongside engaging with both th@ creativ@ communities and our neighbours in the area. Our priority is to continue providing artists with affordable studio spaces in Liverpool, during our lime al Northern Lights. To complement this, we will focus on providing artists Imlh opportunities to develop their practices with their peers and experts in the sector, in addition lo presenting their work in a public setting. Major medium-lerm priorities identified inclLJde agreeing on a realistic payment plan for unexpected service charges from Baltic Creative and planning for a move to a new 'home' following the termination of our lease at Northern Lights in June 2026. Organisational development We remain focused on how our activitie8 contribute to the creative ecology in Liverpool. The Trustee5 and Managing Directors reviewed the proposed plan from 22123 to appoint a temporary paid position. It has been agreed that the vision for this role is loo ambitious and is not sustainable. We understand th8 nature of the restricted funding awarded lo The Royal Standar(i for this role and will revisit this once a plan after the termination of our lease at Northern Lights in June 2026 has been agreed. The majority of the pain points identified by previous Trustees and Artist Leads. as burdens to voluntary roles and a need for a paid role, have been rectified through Ihe organisalional structure review and operational improvements carried out in 23124. The transformation of the Artist Lead rele into that of a Managing Director has shown that there is an interest in a voluntary role that provides pra¢tiC81 operational skills as this enhances the development of creative opportunities 8u¢h as curating exhibitions, producing events as well as workshops, and facilitating artistic development. The Royal Standard has a simple organisalional structure and clear set of activities to deliver. We are now seeing the results of committing lime to establish an understanding of this and building a team that shares Ihis ethos. Risk management The Trustees work lo identify risks that The Royal Standard is exposed lo. The risks identified in 2023124 have been considered and will be mitigated wlh an Action Plan. An immediate risk to be addressed is transitioning Studio Members from paying rent in arrear to in advance to prevent missed payments. Structure, governance and management of the charity The methods used to recruit and appoint new charity trustees. Trustees are recruited b85ed on a regular review if skills considered necessary and ongoing discussion between the existing Board of Trustees. Numbers are limited and the charitable company has a policy of rolling TrusleeshiplDireclorship to keep the charitable company focused and forward thinking. The current Board has a range of skills including business managernent, sales, fundraising, arts education, art practice, curatorial practice, digital, and arts adminislralion.
