Pantonic All Stars Steel Orchestra was founded in 1985 and registered as a charity
on 28th February 2014. The Association operates with a constitution, developed for
charity purposes at that date and detailing the organisation and responsibilities of
management of the Associats"on.
The Association is organised and managed by parents of players in the Orchestra,
as well as some senior players who have been involved for over twenty five years.
All the arrangements for the con￿rtS and other events as well as the control of
finan￿, are in the hands of a small committee consisting of seven trustees. In
addition the Orchestra is supported by other playerfs parents for help in driving to
events, safeguarding and our street collections.
The trustees were chosen from the existing management committee when the
Orchestra was registered as a charity. As required trustees are selected from
parents or players with similar backgrounds who show commitment to the
organisation and well-being of the Orchestra.
Finance
The Orchestra operates a current bank account for day to day payments and
receipts. It also operates two building society accounts. One for savings which are
accrued for the purpose of buying new instruments, fvnding tours within the UK or
abroad and replacement of vehicles.
The second account is used to hold money collected in shopping precincts under
street collection liCen￿S on behalf of the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital Bone
Marrow Trust Fund (charity 702817). until it is donated to the charity annually.
This year the orchestra has continued its fundraising activities for the Manchester
Children's Hospitsl Bone Marrow Trust Fund.
The Orchestra has collected for this charity Sin￿ its foundation in 1985 and to the
end of 2023124 had raised £60.887 making the Orchestra the largest single donation
contributor to the charrty. We held a presentation evening and invited representatives
from both The Manchester Children's Hospital Bone Marrow Trust Fund Charity and
a lead consultant from Manchester Children's hospital. Both came along and gave a

talk about the charity and where the monies raised have help towards advancement
in both treatment and research.
In addition to this, the orchestra is holding a further £1268 in a savings account to
donate to the charity during the 24-25 financial period to totsl £62173
The accounts for the year show a net income over expenditure of £3795.00. The
Orchestra remains financially solid with two operational vehicles and sufficient steel
pans and other equipment to support the size ofthe group.
The orchestra has continued to invest in. purchase of new instruments and
equipment. Plus cary out ne￿SSary repairs and tuning to exists'ng equipment.
Aims and ob"ectlves.
To advance, improve, develop and maintain public education in, and
appreciation of, the art and science of music in all its aspects by any means the
trustees see fit, including through the presentation of public concerts and
recitals.
2. To further such charitsble purpose or purposes as the trust￿8 in their absolute
discretion shall think fft but in particular through the making of grants and
donations.
The aims and objectives of the Orchestra have continued to be met during 2023124
with the recruitment of several new young players, and the continued development of
playing venues to maintain the interest of the players and provide a variety of public
locations for performances.
The orchestra moved into its own premisses in September 2020 and has continued
its operations and rehearsals to date from this location.
Two senior player and one Junior player praCtI￿S are held weekty, to provide the
music educational aspects of leaming new tunes and gaining improved musical
ability in playing steel pan and supporting percussion.
Activitles
In addition to our regular weekly rehearsals, we have had a busy diary of around 40
events consisting of town ￿ntre locations where street collections are carried out to
providing entertainment at paid events.
Several new locations were added alongside attending our regular events.

The orchestra has carried out open days and free trial periods for new player
recruitment purposes during the year. This is something we will continue to work on
and address to ensure that we maintsin a regular throughput of members.
In 2023124 the Orchestra perfomied at venues in England, Wales. and Scotland.
The Orchestra currently has 32 players on its books, including senior players who
play in an associate steel band, some of whom have been playing in the group since
1987. The total throughput of players in the year was 43 including those long seNice
players who left for university or fvll-time employment, and young players who came
for short periods to decide whether they wanted to take up playing steel pan through
their teenage years. Young players are generally recruited from local primary
schools where they have leamt to play basic steel music, or simply from seeing
perfon￿an￿8 in local Stockport venues, which creates the interest to join the group
and learn to play steel pan. They typically spend around twelve months in the junior
section before promotion to the senior group.
