fmancial statements of the charitsble company for th¢ year ended 31 August 2025.
Objectives and aCti￿ties
Objects and auns
The Company is a registered charity. governed by its Articles of Association.
The objects of the charity ar¢ the advancen]ent of education and of the arts and in particular the art and science of
music in all its aspects by the maintenance and support and development of youth orchestras and other musi
ensembles for the young people of Nottinghamshire and its environs 8nd the fostering of publir knowledge and
appreciation of music by public perforn]ance.
Objeclive4 strq¢egi¢s and Activilies
The orchestra runs four music groups.. there are three orchestras: 8 training orchestra for members with a standard
above grade 3, an interniediate orchestra for members who have reached a standard around ￿ade 5 and above. and a
senior orchestra for players from grad¢ 6 to grade 8+. TILere is also a jazz group operating under the twne of
Nottingham Youth Jazz Orchestra (NYJO).
All groups rehearse towards the presentation of public perfOrn￿neeS. The concerts for the three orchestra8 and
NYJO, perfonned in the Albert Hall, Nottinghw were all of a high standard and well supported by parents and
families.
We bave Continued to maintain membership approximately 200 through an active recruitment ¢ampaign.
In addition to re￿lar weekly rehearsals, the organisation also workshop training days and other offsite
activities, when groups of instrumentalists from 811 three orchestras are given coaching by nationally recognised
tors with a view to eth&ncing the participants, appreciation and understanding of the skill of orchestral playing. A
rehearsal and team-building day was also held at Walesby Forest Activity Centre.
All musical activities are overseen by an experienced group of rnusic tutors and conductors, without whose
enthusiasm and con￿ltment the Company would not be able to do all it does, and their contribution is gre&tly
valued. We have a small budget for professional development which tutors are able to access.
Public benefil
The orchestra's objects, which the trustees believe embrace any public benefit requirement, are shown above. In
addition, the orchestra has developed a system of bursaries to ensure that musicians, whatevu their background OT
financial means, can join in our activities. The bursaries means-tested, and this year 32 Children (from 23
familie5) have benefitted from the scheme. This is an increas¢ from the previous year (25 children from 15 famiEies).
For concerts, tickets are made available at a greatly-reduced price specifically aimed at children attending schools in
the more deprived areas of the local Community.
The trustees confirm that they bave complied with the requirements of section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have
due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.

Donatio￿% ond legacies
Donations are recognised when the Charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement d&t¢. In
the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of perforn]aD¢e by the Charity before the
Cbarity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recogllised until either those conditions are fillly met.
or the fillfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the Charity and it is probable that these
conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.
Deferred income
Defeffed income represents an￿￿Thts received for ￿tUre periods and is released to incoming resources in the period
for Whic￿ it has been received. Such income is Only deferred when..
- The donor specifies that the grant or donation must only be used in future accounting periods. or
- The donor ha5 imposed conditions which must be met before the Charity has unconditional entitlement.
Expenditure
All ¢xpenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constNctive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable
settlernent is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure
beading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot b¢ directly atttibuted to particular beadings
th¢y have been allocated oll a basis consistent with th¢ of resources. with central staff costs allocated on the
basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset's Use. Oth¢r support costs are
allocated based on the spread of staff costs.

Individual fixed assets costing £50 or more are initially recorded at cost. less any subsequent a¢¢umulated
depr¢Giation 3Dd subsequent accumulated impairnient losses.
Depreclation and amortisgtion
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual
value, over their expect¢d use￿1 econon]i¢ life as follows..
Asset class
Plant and machinery
DepreciAtion method &nd rate
250/0 Straight line basis
Fixed xsset lllvestments
Fixed asset investments, other than programme related investrnents, are included at market value at tb¢ balance sheet
dale. Realis¢d gains and losses on investments are calculated as the differen¢e between sales procccds and their
market value at the start of the year, or their subsequent cost, and are charged or Credited to tbe Statement of
Financial Activities in the period of disposal.
Unrealised gains and losses represent the movement in mark¢t values duTing th¢ year and are credited or charged to

Fund structure
Unrestricted income fiu]ds are g¢ncTal funds that are availabl¢ for use at the t￿Ste¢S discretion in furtherance of the

Penslons and other post retlrement obllgatlons
The Charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme which is a pension plan under which fixed contributions
are paid into a pension fijnd and the Charity has no legal or Constructive obligation to pay further contributions even
if the fimd does not hold sufficient a5s¢ts to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in th¢
current and prior p¢riods.

du¢. If contribution pa￿￿nts exceed the contribution due for service. the excess is recognised as a prepa)rynent.
Financial instruments
Fair value meosuremenl
The best evidence of fair value is a quoted price for an identical asset in an active market. When quoted prices are
unavailable, the pric¢ of a recent transaction for an identical asset provides evidence of fair value as long as there
has nol been a significant change in economic circumstances or a significant lapse of time since the transaction took
place. If tbe markct is not active and rcccnt transactions of an identical asset on their own are not a good estimate of
fair value. the fair value is estimated by using a valuation technique.
