The Trustees present their report together with the financial statements for the year ended 31st March 2021
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Charity Commission guidance on the preparation of accounts by Charities with gross incomes of less than £250,000 and comply with the charity's governing document.
Registration
The Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) no. 1159836 was formed on the 7th of January 2015 and is governed by the conditions contained within its constitution.
Structures Governance and Management
The Charity is governed by the model constitution for CIOs with voting members other than its Charity Trustees, provided by the Charity Commission.
Trustees are selected by appointment of the members of the CIO, or co-opted by the Board of Trustees during the year, in which case they are obliged to retire at the AGM and stand for re-appointment by the members, should they so wish to do so.
Objectives and Activities, Achievements and Performance
The Objects of the CIO are: to advance education for the public benefit by the promotion of the arts, in particular but not exclusively the art of drama.
During the year, the Trustees declare that they have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit.
Participation
Community participation is key to the charity's mission.
During this extraordinary year, our youth and community programmes were mostly re-designed to reach participants digitally. We were able to form new partnerships with education providers supporting vulnerable participants including young people with special education needs and migrants through 6th Form and ESOL provisions with ELATT, Hackney Shed Theatre and AYBI. We also carried out training with creatives and young creatives from Hackney Empre Theatre.
COVID 19 EMERGENCY
Due to the pandemic emergency and the resulting school closure, two days of #Haters school and community workshops for 360 young people from Haringey and Redbridge and scheduled for the current year were posponed to date to be confirmed.

Following theatre closures, all planned productions were postponed.
Reserves Policy

Independent Examiner's Report on the Accounts
I report on the financial statements for the year ended 31st March 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and related notes set out on pages 7
Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Independent Examiner Charities Act 2011 (the Act)
The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under the Charities Act 2011 (the Act)
and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Act,
· to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission
(under section 145(5)(b) of the Act), and
· to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commission
An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees condcerning any such matters.
The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.
Independent Examiner's statement
In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention
- which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the trustees have not
met the requirements to ensure that:
proper accounting records are kept (in accordance with section 130 of the Act); and
accounts are prepared which agree with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act; or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
