Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2021
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The objectives are to relieve the charitable needs of people who are suffering from, have suffered from or who have been affected by addiction through the performing arts, especially dance.
The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Charity's aims and objectives.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
This dramatic and challenging year has shone a spotlight on health, well-being and in particular mental health and the impact it has on us all. Add an addiction, vulnerable beneficiaries and a tenuous recovery process and you have the world that Fallen Angels Dance Theatre North West ("FADT") chooses to work in.
Working alongside the strength of creative work FADT produces, has always been the interconnectivity of individuals in recovery meeting up, sharing and supporting each other in person. This was no longer possible. However, the resourcefulness, dedication and commitment of all the staff, board and volunteers, ensured that new ways of working were introduced. Online participation and support using social media participation and support, using social media and video conferencing was set up with the aim of keeping people "Together While Apart". The personal impact of this took is more than evident in the words of Dave's case study.
While some change has been forced upon us, much of it has evolved as a result of planning and delivering the Elevate objectives of the business plan. One highlight of ACE funding has provided FADT with two new employees. One, much needed, administrator and engagement support worker, both of whom are invaluable in strengthening the work of the organisation and helping to develop its potential.
Despite this difficult year, creative work blossomed online and on film. FADT delivered 153 workshops, supported 148 individuals and created 7 films: a fitting tribute to the resilience and perseverance of all involved. This work would not have been possible without funding we have gratefully received from a variety of Covid support schemes and supporting partner organisations.
Moving into the future sees FADT expanding, bringing people together in person to share in the benefits that dance can bring and in creating new professional work, strengthening our ability to attract new participants and reach new audiences and widening the debate around issues surrounding addiction and recovery. Building on the public's new awareness of vulnerability, inequality and mental health. FADT's voice will have an important role to play.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
In accordance with its reserves policy, the trustees have reviewed the organisations reserves policy during 2020/21 and will continue to retain at least three months operating expenditure in unrestricted reserves. The total unrestricted reserves as at 31 March 2021 was £35,043 (2020 unrestricted reserves were £22,242) ) which continues to meet the requirements of the reserves policy. The trustees will continue to review the reserve policy on an annual basis.
Whilst activities at Fallen Angels continue to be affected by the Covid 19 pandemic, expenditure during 2020/21 increased by over 20% in accordance with revised financial expenditure forecasts. During 2021/2 the trustees expect the levels of restricted fund expenditure to be further reconciled whilst we continue to ensure the safety of our beneficiaries and employees.
