## **Objectives and Activities** 

In setting the objectives and activities the Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit. 

SLiDE’s charitable purposes as defined in its objectives as cited in the Memorandum and Articles of Association: 

1. To advance for the public benefit the performing arts, for people of all abilities, through the provision of accessible workshops, classes, events and performances in dance and associated art forms. 

2. To advance for the public benefit education and training in inclusive arts practice in dance and associated art forms. 

In 2022/23, the Trustees felt that the purposes were best achieved by continuing the core programme, alongside strengthening our infrastructure and existing partnerships. SLiDE’s core programme consists of: 

1. Creative dance for wellbeing: community dance classes for people of varying ages, including people with learning disabilities and Parkinson’s disease. 

2. Community performance groups and projects: adult company plus inclusive dance projects with a performance or particular artistic focus 

3. SLiDE Collective: Learning disabled performers who co-create and perform relaxed, interactive dance pieces and co-facilitate outreach workshops. 

The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding which activities the charity should undertake. 

## **Key highlights of the year:** 

- 224 in-person and Zoom dance sessions were held, averaging 15 participants per session 

- Our work reached 805 people directly through participation in workshops and projects. With a wider reach of approximately 443 through carers, family members, audiences and partners. 

- Outreach workshops  were held with the following partners and venues: Southbank Centre, Zetetick Housing, Crystal Palace Foundation, Trinity Laban. 

- New family piece ‘Jack & Friends’ commissioned and performed as part of Croydonites Festival (October 2022) 

- SLiDE was commissioned to develop a duet called _Crosswor(l)ds_ by Drunken Chorus and it was performed at A Bit of a Do (October 2022) 

- Piloted a series of new classes for young people with National Autistic Society 

- SLiDE commissioned by The Place to work with undergraduate students on a research project into inclusive teaching practice. 

- Secured funding from National Lottery Community Fund for a three year partnership project with local organisations Turf Projects and Club Soda. Project activity includes quarterly inclusive cabaret events and a mentor programme. 

- Full time Project Manager, first PAYE post for SLiDE enabling more stability within the core team and capacity.

## **TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT** 

## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023**_ 

## **Challenges this year:** 

- The cost of living crisis continues to have a big impact on SLiDE which includes higher production costs and lower audience figures and volunteers. 

- The Project Manager moved from part time to full time, replacing the Finance Manager allowing capacity and stability to increase amongst the core team. Although progress has been made, more is to be done regarding longer term funding to support key roles such as the Artistic Director. 

- SLiDE’s work is in demand, there are waiting lists for all the weekly sessions. Expanding existing programming has proven difficult with limited core funding so additional funding bids have been completed. 

## **Plans for the future** 

2023/24 will be a busy year for SLiDE as we build towards the 10th anniversary (October) and take part in festivals as Croydon continues as the London Borough of Culture (BoC). 

## **Creative dance for wellbeing:** 

1. Run two weekly dance groups for adults with learning disabilities and people with Parkinson’s disease. 

2. Explore more regular sessions, in holiday and term time, for children and adults with learning disabilities and/or autism. 

## **Community performance groups and projects:** 

1. Restage _Unexpected item_ , made by SLiDE in 2013 in celebration of our 10th anniversary at Croydonites Theatre Festival. 

2. Adult performance company present work at a minimum of 3 events/festivals 

3. Re-launch a performance company for young people 

4. Continue to develop our strong partnership with Club Soda and Turf Projects to increase the options for participation in creative and social events for learning disabled people in Croydon. Work with these partners to develop paid opportunities for learning disabled artists and producers 

5. Nurture our partnerships with the National Autistic Society, local schools and Croydon Mencap. 

## **SLiDE Collective:** 

1. Continue to develop solos, duets and group pieces, presenting work at a minimum of 3 events/festivals. 

2. Present an outdoor version of _<Insert title here>_ at the Liberty Festival (September 2023) 

3. Further develop _Crosswor(l)ds_ and present at Dance Festival Croydon (October 2023) 

4. Tour _Jack & Friends_ to at least 3 local Croydon schools (March 2024) 

5. Maintain engagement with professional dancers and musicians who have created and performed with the collective in previous projects

## **Organisational development:** 

1. Develop our relationships with: 

   - a. venues and festivals such as Wandsworth Arts Festival, Southbank Centre, Stanley Arts, The Place (Rural Touring) 

   - b. Current funders; Garfield Weston and the Arts Council England 

   - c. Extend our portfolio of funders for unrestricted/core grants 

   - d. Producers, General Managers and Fundraisers for future projects and to support the core team 

2. Maintain membership to the London Borough of Culture Access Steering Group and be active in the developments around the BoC legacy 

3. In conversation with our community throughout the 10th anniversary events document responses to ‘what is next for SLiDE?’ 

4. Create a basic SLiDE project archive (2013-23) of photos and projects 

5. Continue to develop and document the SLiDE methodology to impact the wider arts sector and strengthen the quality of our practice 

6. Strengthen our board through training and support including a trustee taking the lead on sustainability 

7. Develop SLiDE’s online presence with marketing support for social media and the website 

## **Financial Review** 

## _**General review**_ 

2022/23 saw a significant increase in turnover due to a number of successful fundraising bids. Support was received from National lottery Community Fund, Arts Council England (ACE), Paul Hamlyn Foundation, City Bridge Trust, Garfield Weston and Jack Petchey Foundation. 

Croydon Council’s finances continue to be exceedingly challenging with a third section 114 (bankruptcy) notice filed in November 2022. This may impact SLiDE's ability to raise funds from Council-led funding sources in future. However the trustees feel that SLiDE has made significant progress in creating a portfolio of funders that this risk is currently low and is being well managed. 

## _**Current year’s results:**_ 

The total income for the year was £154,642 (2022: £138,898), which was a 11% increase on the prior financial year. The majority of this was grant income. 

The total expenditure for the year was £134,845 (2022: £93,154), which was a 45% increase on the prior financial year. The majority of the spend was on facilitator and assistant fees, project management and administration

## **TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT** 

## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023**_ 

## _**Reserves Policy**_ 

The reserves policy agreed by the Trustees is to hold a minimum of one month’s running costs in unrestricted reserves, which equates to £10,000. The reserves are to cover core activity in the event of a period of unforeseen difficulty such as unsuccessful fundraising. SLiDE activities are only undertaken when funding is in place. Therefore the reserves would enable the charity to run a final 4 weeks of activities to wind up the charitable company in a careful and considered way, for our community members and partners. The Trustees have set a target reserves policy of three months’ running costs to be held in unrestricted reserves, in order to increase the organisation’s sustainability. To increase unrestricted reserves to the identified target the charity will be seeking to increase sustainable multi-year funding and including a request for funders to cover core costs in funding applications. 

At 31 August 2023, unrestricted reserves of £21,230 (2022: £23,548) were held. SLiDE's reserves policy is reviewed and updated annually by the Finance Subcommittee and approved by the board. 

## _**Risk Assessment**_ 

The Trustees regularly review the major risks to which SLiDE is exposed. Where appropriate, procedures have been established to mitigate any risks faced by the organisation. Internal control risks are minimised through clear authorisation procedures for all projects, activities and financial transactions. Procedures are also in place to ensure the safeguarding and health and safety of staff, participants and visitors. 

## _**Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities**_ 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland. 

Company law requires trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent 

- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.

## _**Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities continued**_ 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

So far as each Trustee is aware, there is no relevant information (information needed by the charity’s independent examiners in connection with preparing their report) of which the charity’s examiners are unaware; and each director has taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as a director in order to make themselves aware of any relevant information and to establish that the charity’s examiners are aware of that information and to establish that the charity’s examiners are aware of that information. 

## **Independent Examiners** 

Simpson Wreford LLP were appointed as Independent Examiners during the year and have expressed their willingness to continue in that capacity. 

The above report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of section 419(2) of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. 

The Trustees have complied with their duty in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charities Commission.

## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023**_ 

I report to the charity trustees of the company for the year ended 31 August 2023, which are set out on pages 9 to 16. 

## _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’).

- (2) the accounts do not accord with those accounting 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.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023**_ 

## **1.5 Expenditure** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 

Certain expenditure is directly attributable to specific activities and has been included in those cost categories. Certain other costs, which are attributable to more than one activity, are apportioned across cost categories on the basis of staff costs spent on those activities. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings: 

- Charitable activities costs include the direct cost of providing services, as well as a share of overheads. 

- Other costs include the cost of compliance with the charity’s constitutional and statutory requirements. ● The cost of fundraising relates to the costs incurred by the charity in raising funds for charitable work. 

## **1.6 Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid. 

## **1.7 Cash at bank and in hand**

## **1.8 Creditors and provisions** 

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## **1.9 Financial instruments** 

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value. 

## **1.10 Fund accounting** 

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objects of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. 

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes.  The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund.  The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.  Statutory grants which are given as contributions towards the Charity’s core services are treated as unrestricted.
