Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 30 June 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 30 June 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

1) to advance the Christian faith for the public benefit, in particular by broadcasting Christian messages of an evangelistic and educative nature through theatre and the dramatic arts.

2) to advance the arts for the public benefit.

Significant activities

We have had another great year with 4Front performing across the UK in a variety of venues. We feel in each project we have been very successful in fulfilling our charitable aims as set out above.

We are really pleased to have toured already established productions this year (Fisherman's Tail, The Parable Keeper and more), as well as creating a brand-new show for Christmas (Herald of Herod). We are delighted to have reached over 30,000 people in person this financial year (more details about all of these shows below) as well as continuing our online reach through Virtual Sunday School (currently with 8,386 subscribers and over 652,000 views).

Public benefit

The charity trustees have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the commission in exercising their powers or duties.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

Fisherman's Tail

We finished off our summer tour with 3 performance and workshop days in July 2023, before sending the show up to Scotland in September where they performed 12 shows from Carlisle all the way up to Wick on the North coast. We were pleased to be able to send the production to Scotland as many Scottish performances were cancelled in 2020 due to COVID.

As the show has now been on the road for 5 years, we have decided to 'rest' this production for a while. We hope to bring it back in 2026.

"We had a fabulous time when the team came in to perform. It was engaging from the start from the fish thrown in the audience to the exciting narrative. It was one of the best performances we have ever had in our school and all the children enjoyed it. It was fast paced, comical and just simply amazing. Thank you all so much!" Bullwell St Mary's Primary School

Abound

Following the success of last year's Virtual Sunday School family camp, we decided to hold a second event with a new name - Abound Family Camp.

Our theme for the weekend was 'Jesus Story' and together the VSS presenters and the guests explored Bible stories, made crafts, played games, bounced on inflatables and we even had a few special guests such as Christian musician Chip K, award-winning author Bob Hartman and CBeebies presenter Joanna Adeyinka-Burford.

The event ran with similar numbers to the previous year; 35 volunteers (plus their families) and just over 100 weekend guests, as well as over 100-day visitors on the Saturday and the same on Sunday. Overall, it was a very good weekend; we did have to invest in the weekend again, but plan to break even next year by slightly increasing the price and applying for grant funding. We would love to run a bursary programme for those who might not be able to afford it and this is something we will explore for 2024. We were able to put some unrestricted grant funding towards covering this cost this year.

Virtual Sunday School

We were able to take some time at the start of 2024 to work on some exciting Virtual Sunday School projects, namely dance videos and a new album. We created 7 dance videos for our kids praise songs and uploaded them to YouTube so children and families around the world can join in not only with the singing but also with the actions to the songs.

We also wrote a brand-new song ('Up and Alive') and created a new album with this song and several of our other recent tracks - The Virtual Sunday School Praise Party album. Alongside this we created an hour long, in-person, event (VSS Praise Party) which we performed at Spring Harvest and hope to perform at other events later in 2024.

We were able to create a mini summer series of 5 short (3-4 minute) episodes with a teaching point and game, as well as a 'Bible Bites' mini-series in October of 4 rhyming Bible stories. Both series have done well and looking ahead we would like to do more of these in the future.

Bible Bash

We received funding at the start of 2024 to create a pilot episode of a children's TV gameshow which we were able to do in April. We used our Virtual Sunday School presenters as well as Joanna Adeyinka-Burford (known for her work as a CBeebies presenter) and 6 children took part. The winning team of children got to gunge their grown up at the end of the episode.

We are working with Simon from AllStarKids to edit this episode and hope to take it out to potential producers to have a full series commissioned in 2025 / 2026.

Christmas: Herald of Herod & Jilly Rogers' Christmas Adventure

4Front Theatre

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 30 June 2024

We were delighted to have 2 productions again (touring North/ Midlands and South/ Midlands), including a brand-new show for 2023; 'Herald of Herod' and returning for a second year 'Jilly Rogers' Christmas Adventure'.

We were able to work with 8 freelance actors for these tours and had fantastic feedback. Overall, we performed 65 shows to over 13,500 children and families across the UK. We performed in Churches and Primary schools.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you from St Anne's. The children absolutely loved it - our headteacher commented on how well organised it was and how the team were excellent. Thank you for the opportunity you gave our children - who were still excited and laughing back at school about being wet from the camels. A great morning - thank you! Farington Primary School, Wigan

Spring Harvest

For a third year running, we were asked by Spring Harvest (one of the largest Christian festivals in the UK running for a week at Butlins) to run the 8-11's venue at Spring Harvest Skegness in April 2024. We had the largest amount of children we've had yet, with 550 children registered for the event where we ran 2 sessions a day for 5 days. With a team of over 50 volunteers, we saw many children make commitments to being a Christian and we had a brilliant week! We hope to return in 2025.

The Parable Keeper

Our big summer tour for May -July 2024 was 'The Parable Keeper' which had 43 performances in May-June and a further 9 at the start of July. This tour saw over 10,000 people, primarily Primary school children, and was very successful. We hope to send 'The Parable Keeper' out again in Spring 2025, before 'resting' the show for a year or 2.

Fundraising activities

We are thankful for our regular supporter base which has grown to 139 individuals / families who contribute on average £2,200 a month. We have seen an increase this year and we hope to continue to see this increase further as we move forward.

We are really pleased to have secured several grants this year, totalling £46,350 as follows:

Imagine The Day: £7,000 (Towards salary for new Children and Education Officer) St Matthias Trust: £1,750 (Towards discounted performances of 'The Parable Keeper' for schools in Bristol / Bath area) Old Town Christian Trust: £5,000 (Towards discounted performances of 'The Parable Keeper' for schools in Gloucestershire) Deo Gloria Trust: £3,000 (Towards 'Bible Bash' TV pilot episode) Goodnews Evangelical Mission : £2,500 (Towards 'Bible Bash' TV pilot episode) Philadelphia Trust: £5,000 (Towards general funds) The Anchor Foundation: £7,600 (Towards relaunching 'Beyond Bars' our prisons tour in Sept 2024) R C Snelling Trust: £3,000 (Towards discounted performances of 'The Parable Keeper' in Norfolk Primary schools) Lancaster Foundation: £5,000 (Towards General Funds) Slavanka Trust: £2,500 (Towards a bursary scheme for Abound family camp 2024) Stewardship: £4,000 (Towards relaunching 'Beyond Bars' our prisons tour in Sept 2024)

FUTURE PLANS

We are pleased that 4Front seems to be going from strength to strength and hope that with the appointment of our new Children and Education Officer we will continue to grow. We hope to hold Abound family camp again in summer 2024, as well as re-launching our prisons work with a tour of 'Beyond Bars' in Autumn. We are looking forward to 2 Christmas tours again, and a Spring 2025 tour of 'The Parable Keeper'. Finally, we hope to launch a brand new show, 'Bizarre Bible', in Summer 2025. We will also look to grow our regular financial supporter base and apply for more grants to enable our work to be more easily accessible financially, particularly for schools.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of 4Front Theatre

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of 4Front Theatre ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 30 June 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:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  2. 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

  3. 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.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2024

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The accounts have been prepared on the going concern basis, as there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue. Based on the adequacy of the charity's reserves as at the balance sheet date, along with their knowledge of the charity's ability to meet bills, payments and other liabilities as they fall due, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the charity has sufficient resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

The charity has relied significantly upon volunteers in carrying out its activities during the year. In accordance with paragraph 6.18 of the SORP, the role of volunteers has not been recognised as income from donated services in the accounts.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Plant and machinery - 20% on cost Motor vehicles - 25% on cost Computer equipment - 50% on cost

All tangible fixed assets are recorded at cost, being purchase price, less accumulated depreciation.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
