Objects

Strategies for Achieving Objectives

The impact of its work can be felt across a wide range of groups and individuals and communities. Our project partners this year include:

INSIDE OUT CYMRU

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Inside Out Cymru’s programme of work during the year has been funded by various grants and trusts that are used to deliver arts workshops for supporting mental health and well-being in the community throughout Gwent. During this year Inside Out Cymru delivered on average 20 hours of arts activities equitably each week around the greater Gwent area.

There have been 4 main strands to our work this year:

Public Benefit

We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives in planning our future activities. Inside Out Cymru’s aims are to promote mental health and well-being through community and creative arts activities; to provide educational opportunities for our participants and for the wider public in all areas relating to learning difficulties or disabilities, mental health and well-being issues; and to promote social inclusion in local communities.

Activities

Our core programme of community arts workshops consists of the delivery of an average of 20 hours per week of arts workshops throughout Gwent in community and residential settings. This usually means working with partners as venue hosts or referrers of participants. These workshops are in a range of art forms and a number of individual freelance artists. This included choir/ accessible music (with Wendy Lewis), visual arts/ crafts (with Nathan Sheen, Alice Smith, Sarah Goodey, Bill Chambers, Rhian Anderson, Rachel Balmforth and Marion Cheung), applied arts (with artist Lisa Floyd, and movement (with Fiona Winter) which were very popular and well received. We review our provision on an ongoing basis, responding to demand from service users and stakeholders. We base project development and funding applications on our consultation with our participants and partners as well as undertaking through evaluations of our projects. We have no core funding so our projects must be funded through specific applications for that piece of work.

INSIDE OUT CYMRU

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Grant Making Policy

Our approach to grant making has been to ensure that our most well attended sessions’ are sustained and secured, with a view to improving and developing partnerships to sustain our programme in 2025-26. To develop and expand our workshops, we seek to secure smaller grants of between £3,000 - £10,000 to enable us to set up new workshops and extend our geographical range within Gwent. The year 2024-25 has seen the majority of core sessions develop into new projects with our new partners and funders. This year the focus has been on smaller grants for individual projects with specific themes, however this is very time consuming for project management in terms of development and monitoring each piece of work. Thanks to an award from the Postcode Lottery in November 2024 we have been able to contract a finance officer to assist with managing our funding and we intend to develop larger projects where we can reach more of our beneficiaries through larger grants and therefore focus on managing projects with a greater reach.

Financial review

During the period the organisation received total income of £111,134 (2024: £45,946) and total expenditure of £84,850 (2024: £77,252). This resulted in a surplus of £26,284 (2024: deficit of £31,306).

Unrestricted reserves at the end of March 2025 were £29,457 (2024: £22,045).

Reserves Policy

In accordance with good corporate governance and Charity Commission guidelines, the Board is maintaining an accumulated reserve of £10,000 as an unrestricted contingency fund to cover between 6-12 months operating costs. The Board is also developing new ideas for income generation such as commissions to deliver work in partnership with other organisations. Since we were no longer in receipt of Lottery funding after March 2023 and no longer had employees working for the Charity, only self-employed contracts, we had no need to provide on costs or potential redundancy as part of our reserve. Therefore our reserve policy was reviewed in October 2023 and the amount adjusted to include administration and subscriptions costs for 6-12 months only. As a Charity we have no overheads such as office rental and associated bills, and costs covered by the reserve include project management time/administration, Fundraising and subscriptions such as book-keeping systems. The Reserves Policy will be reviewed annually.

Funding

During 2024-25 the Charity has been running on a project by project basis and drawing grants from a variety of Charitable Trusts and Foundations to deliver the programme of work. Grants include project management/ administration fees as part of each project.

Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with the relevant version of the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn. I understand that this has been done in order for the financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

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 financial statements to be reached.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Inside Out Cymru is an unincorporated charity whose principal office is c/o Blackwood Miners Institute, High Street, Blackwood, Gwent, NP12 1BB.

1.1 Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, 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) (effective 1 January 2019)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a true and fair view. This departure has involved following the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn.

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 financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

1.4 Income

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount.

Income from grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue' grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. Capital grants are released to the Statement of Financial Activities in the year of receipt. Fixed assets relating to capital grants are capitalised, and depreciation charged is offset against the grant income, in a restricted fund.

Income raised from programmes and sessions is recognised in the period to which it relates with any amounts received in advance deferred.

INSIDE OUT CYMRU

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.5 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs relating to the furtherance of the charity’s objectives as stated in the trustees report and their associated support costs.

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.

1.6 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.7 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.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or when the charity transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party.

INSIDE OUT CYMRU

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.8 Employee benefits

The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets.

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
