We also delivered our first completely remote community project. As well as our first nature/ environment focused art project. ## **Root to Rise** Arts Bridge was awarded funding from Arts Council England to deliver an intergeneraMonal, arts-based nature project from July 2022. Children, elders, local arMsts and gardeners collaborated to regenerate the gardens of a residenMal care home (Protheroe House, N17) into a vibrant creaMve hub. Learning about the environment, taking part in nature craf workshops and developing their creaMvity through fun workshops. The project had two strands: 1. RenovaMon - RenovaMng the gardens and outdoor spaces of a ToXenham care home. 2. CreaMon - SupporMng the elders and local children to explore their creaMvity. ## RenovaMon: Two professional gardeners collaborated with residents to rejuvenate the outdoor spaces of the care home. Weeding, designing and planMng to creaMvely showcase the gardens. IniMally the residents were going to take on a 15 Lauriston Apartments Ambleside Close London N17 6FF E: info@arts-bridge.co.uk T: (0) 78900 13830 www.arts-bridge.co.uk Charity RegistraMon Number: 1158002 ## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT (cont.)** consultant role for the gardening - leaving the physical labour to the ABC team - but they were so keen to physically take part that the residents were invited to help with light gardening acMviMes. ## CreaMon: Nature craf pracMMoners led sessions during which the elders made various items including: bird feeders: ornaments made from dried flowers and fruit; Christmas wreaths using real plants. They also learnt about composMng. A local spoken word arMst delivered poetry workshops for the elders. The poems created in these sessions and the items created in the nature craf sessions provided the sMmulus for local children to creaMvely respond to - e.g. through dance, physical theatre, poetry, drama etc. The project culminated in an informal sharing of work for an invited audience of friends and family in the garden of Protheroe House care home. The sharing took place as part of a garden party, which saw the children perform their devised piece whilst residents, friends and family enjoyed refreshments together. ## **Wellness Warriors 2023** Funded by Mayor of London’s _Building stronger Communi0es Fun_ , ABC delivered a rollout of a project we first piloted in 2021. Developed as a way to support children during the COVID-19 UK lockdowns, the first iteraMon of Wellness Warriors was a totally remote, 6 week project in collaboraMon with Welbourne Primary School, N17. Working with the children of key workers who sMll had to aXend school, the weekly, 30 min sessions aimed to give children the tools to understand and idenMfy their emoMons and then develop a ‘wellbeing toolkit’ of acMviMes that they could draw upon to regulate their moods. Providing them with a safe space to talk about their emoMons during a Mme when they might be too scared to do so in fear of adding more stress to the adults around them and empowering them to manage their mental wellbeing. Although the ethos of the project remained the same, the rollout saw the project change is some significant ways.: These adaptaMons were in response to changing circumstances, allowing the project to have an even greater impact. - DuraMon - the project was increased from 6 weeks to 12 weeks. - Session duraMon - increased from 30 minutes to 1 hour. - LocaMon - the sessions changed from being remote only to taking place in person at Chestnuts Primary School, N17. - ParMcipants - the pilot involved working with 6 x Key Stage 2 children but the rollout involved all Year 3 and Year 4 classes at a 1.5-form entry school. Totalling 90 pupils. Anecdotal feedback from class teachers reported a significant improvement in pupils wellbeing and interacMons at school - more cohesive interplay, being able to work in different groups without conflict and less instances of pupils ‘acMng out’ or ‘acMng in’. 15 Lauriston Apartments Ambleside Close London N17 6FF E: info@arts-bridge.co.uk T: (0) 78900 13830 www.arts-bridge.co.uk Charity RegistraMon Number: 1158002 ## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT (cont.)** Now that this new in-person format has been developed, Wellness Warriors will now conMnue to be a key offer for ABC going forward. ## **Windrush 75** To commemorate the 75th anniversary of the arrival of the SS Windrush from the Caribbean to the UK, ABC was commissioned by Bernie Grant Arts Centre to deliver two community projects - Windrush Portraits and School Takeover. ## _**Windrush Portraits:**_ ABC partnered with Bernie Grant Arts Centre and ToXenham photographer, Steve Bright, to create a series of portraits of local Windrush GeneraMon elders. 100’s of people responded to a call out looking for local elders to be involved in the project.

They were invited to a shoot day at Bernie Grant Arts Centre during which they: - had their hair and makeup done by a professional makeup arMst. - -were interviewed about their reasons for coming to the UK and the harsh realiMes of life when they arrived. - Took part in a professional photoshoot. The images of the 14 elders were displayed in the foyer of Bernie Grant Arts Centre alongside images of the elders from when they first arrived in the UK and audio recordings of them sharing stories about adjusMng to their new lives. The elders were invited to aXend a VIP gala event at Bernie Grant Arts Centre for the opening of the exhibiMon. ## _**Windrush 75 Schools Takeover** (20th & 23rd June 2023)_ ABC delivered Windrush workshops to every Chestnut Primary School class group - from Year 1 (4-5yrs) to Year 6 (10-11yrs). Firstly, Years 3, 5 and 6 came to Bernie Grant Arts Centre and took over the building for the day. 180 pupils came to the Centre and took part in a carousel of Windrush-themed arts acMviMes using all the spaces available at Berne Grant Arts Centre.

Quality looks like all RtR parMcipants having an enriching experience that allows them to discover hidden creaMve depths, feel connected to their local community and empowered.’ - With this criteria in mind RtR was a highly successful project as it surpassed all of these overall aims. ## **Wellness Warriors 2023** - We engaged with 90 Haringey primary school pupils aged 7 - 9 years old. 15 Lauriston Apartments Ambleside Close London N17 6FF E: info@arts-bridge.co.uk T: (0) 78900 13830 www.arts-bridge.co.uk Charity RegistraMon Number: 1158002 ## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT (cont.)** The parMcipants and their class teachers: - Anecdotally reported increased self-esteem and confidence as a result of the project. - ParMcipated in 12 x creaMve wellbeing workshops led by ABC. - Developed an understanding of the ‘zones of regulaMon’ - Created a ‘toolkit’ of wellbeing acMviMes that they can use to regulate their emoMons. ## **Windrush Portraits** We engaged with 14 Windrush GeneraMon elders and their families.

The chariMes acMviMes were financed mainly by grants and donaMons. Income was increased to £19,696 compared to £11 in the previous year. Expenditure was also higher at £17,980 compared to £2,035 in the previous year resulMng in a surplus of £1,716 compared to a deficit of £2,024 in 2021-2022. ## **Reserves Policy** **Arts Bridge Charity’s reserves policy states that reserves of £2500 are required due to the following:** - a) The risk of unforeseen emergency or other unexpected need for funds, e.g. an unexpected large repair bill or finding ‘seed-funding’ for an urgent project. - b) Covering unforeseen day-to-day operaMonal costs, e.g. employing temporary staff to cover absence. - c) A source of income, e.g. a grant, not being renewed. Funds might be needed to give the trustees Mme to take acMon if income falls below expectaMons. - d) Planned commitments, or designaMons, that cannot be met by future income alone, e.g. plans for a major asset purchase or to a significant project that requires the charity to provide ‘matched-funding’. - e) The need to fund short-term deficits in a cash budget, e.g. money may need to be spent before a funding grant is received. For the 2022-2023 financial year, the charity met its reserves target. 15 Lauriston Apartments Ambleside Close London N17 6FF E: info@arts-bridge.co.uk T: (0) 78900 13830 www.arts-bridge.co.uk Charity RegistraMon Number: 1158002 ## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES RESPONSIBILITIES** The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparaMon of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the ChariMes Act 2011 and the ChariMes (Accounts and Reports) RegulaMons 2008. Notwithstanding the explicit requirement in the extant statutory regulaMons, the ChariMes (Accounts and Reports) RegulaMons 2008, to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the SORP 2005, in view of the fact that the SORP 2005 has been withdrawn, the Trustees determined to interpret this responsibility as requiring them to follow current best pracMce and prepare the accounts according to the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended PracMce for AccounMng and ReporMng by ChariMes) 2015, (as amended by the BulleMn issued in February 2017), (The SORP). In parMcular, charity law requires the Trustees, if they prepare accounts on an accruals basis, to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the Trustees are required to: - Prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted AccounMng PracMce (United Kingdom AccounMng Standards and applicable law). - Select suitable accounMng policies and apply them consistently. - Make judgements and esMmates that are reasonable and prudent. - Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will conMnue in business. - State whether applicable accounMng standards and statements of recommended pracMce have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements. The law requires that the trustees must not approve the accounts unless they are saMsfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the surplus or deficit of the charity for the year. The Trustees are also responsible for maintaining adequate accounMng records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any Mme the financial posiMon of the charity and which are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transacMons and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with regulaMons made under the ChariMes Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevenMon and detecMon of fraud and other irregulariMes. The Trustees are also responsible for the contents of the Trustees' report, and the statutory responsibility of the Independent Examiner in relaMon to the Trustees' report is limited to examining the report and ensuring that, on the face of the report, there are no material inconsistencies with the figures disclosed in the financial statements. **DeclaraBon** The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above.

These financial statements have been prepared under the historical convenMon and the accounMng policies set out therein. ## **RespecBve responsibiliBes of trustees and examiner** As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparaMon of the accounts; you consider that the audit requirement of secMon 144 (2) of the ChariMes Act 2011 (the Act) does not apply. It is my responsibility to: - examine the accounts under secMon 145 of the Act - follow the procedures specified in the General DirecMons given by the Charity Commission under secMon 145(5) (b) of the Act; and - state whether parMcular maXers have come to my aXenMon. ## **Basis of Independent Examiner’s Report** My examinaMon was carried out in accordance with the General DirecMons given by the Charity Commissioners. An examinaMon includes a review of the accounMng records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideraMon of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanaMons from you as trustees concerning any such maXers. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a “true and fair view” and the report is limited to those maXers set out in the statement below. ## **Independent Examiner’s Statement** In connecMon with my examinaMon, no maXer has come to my aXenMon - 1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements ▪ to keep accounMng records in accordance with S 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounMng records and to comply with the accounMng requirements of S396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended PracMce: AccounMng and ReporMng by ChariMes. have not been met; or - 2) to which, in my opinion, aXenMon should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
