## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024** 

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 2024. 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** 

Manasamitra's ambitious work, rooted in classical Indian traditions, is inspired by an intercultural vision which merges the best musicianship, vocals, dance and storytelling from diverse cultures, into dynamic artistic collaborations. These collaborations respect and challenge the ideas, forms and aesthetics of each genre whilst producing performances representative of the artistically rich, melting point world we are privileged to inhabit. 

These include classical Carnatic concerts; individual, cross discipline, artist to artist collaborations; small ensemble productions; whole company/intercompany shows; and inter/national performances. Manasamitra is privileged to work with cross-genre artists of inter/national repute. 

The company's mission is clear; to be brave enough to produce excellent artistically and commercially successful performances which explore, explain and entertain audiences; doing so by travelling to unfamiliar territory and crossing artistic boundaries whilst maintaining artistic integrity and telling stories relevant to many cultures and peoples. 

As a producing company, Manasamitra is strongly committed to creating new, quality productions and bringing innovative audience/participant experiences to venues inter/nationally. The company champions and encourages social cohesion as it performs in premium venues, theatres, festivals, cathedrals and community spaces and by delivering community based workshops/educational sessions in schools. 

## **Public benefit** 

The trustees have complied with their duty under section 17 (5) of the Charities Act 2011 to pay due regard to Charity Commission guidance concerning public benefit in deciding what activities the charity should undertake. 

## **Equal Opportunities Statement** 

Diversity/Equal Opportunities in all its formats is vitally important in the day to day work of Manasamitra and is core to its vision.  We celebrate and value the diversity of individuals and do not discriminate on the grounds of race, faith, disability, gender, sexuality, age or any other.  As the cultural landscape around us shifts we recognise the benefits to be gained by utilising the potential and strengths in all social groups. 

As an arts organisation we fully understand the need to have a cultural diversity/equal opportunity approach at the root of our working practices and principles and we have in place an Equal Opportunities Policy, Diversity Policy and a Cultural Diversity Action Plan to be reviewed and developed this year. 

In our work we try wherever possible to ensure that our artists and staff are representative of the community within which we operate.  We support emerging artists from diverse communities wherever possible and practical. 

All individuals involved with Manasamitra and using its services are expected to adhere to Manasamitra's Equal Opportunities Policy and Diversity policy and to ensure that their activities reflect this commitment.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024** 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities** 

Manasamitra had a busy year consolidating some of last year's projects as well as delivering new work. 

Highlights include: 

- Successfully completing the Festival of Conversations work with a Fun Palace style event bringing communities together. 

- Being commissioned by Artichoke to compose a piece for the HERD project as part of the Kirklees Year of Music. 

- Being one of the composers for a week long extravaganza of a Yorkshire version of BEWOULF that received national acclaim. 

- Launching two ensembles, Sonic Threads with Lucy Nolan and Sanmantra with Dave Sturt to add to the available pieces to tour. 

- We also continued our growing partnership with Water@Leeds and Prof Natasha Barlow.  Our work Meltwater had a fabulous outing as part of Planet Summer at Southbank Centre and then at Howard Assembly Room. 

We are constantly making new partnerships and have a couple of exciting projects in the pipeline. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial Review and Reserves** 

The income for the financial year was £111,698 (2023: £92,179) and expenditure was £108,551 (2023: £102,749).  This resulted in an overall increase in the charity's reserves of £3,147 (2023: decrease of £10,567). The general reserves were at the year end were £24,005 (2023: £20,891). 

The charity aims to hold sufficient reserves to cover 6 months of unrestricted expenditure if possible.  This would be in the region of £25,000 and so the year end balance was at this level.  New income streams are being sought to sustain the charity for future periods. 

## **FUTURE PLANS** 

Manasamitra will continue to operate in a similar manner going forward with a small but stable staffing structure and development of artistically interesting and stimulating work with influential collaborators. 

We now have a reputation and are attracting commissions nationally. We continue to expand our reach and develop partnerships internationally. Climate change has been a big part of our new works and we are looking at various collaborators to strengthen that aspect. 

We will expand our National reach and just maintain International connections rather than actively nurture them at present. 

We have a transparent and flexible working model that can shape-shift to fit in with changed circumstances and we will continue to carve a niche in the music industry for ourselves.

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Manasamitra Limited ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2024. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

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:

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). 

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 accounts to be reached.

The Mentoring fund related to monies received from PRSF to fund a mentoring project aimed at supporting women composers from a South Asian background in the period to November 2022. 

The Organisational Development project was monies received from Arts Council England, with match funding from the Performing Rights Society, Match It! and WOVEN, with 'in-kind' support from Chadwick and Beddard, landlords.  It was to support Manasamitra's development of digital delivery, our mentoring and support of emerging artists and to initiate / expand new strands of activity.  This project was completed last year.
