## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

The Charity's objectives are to ‘advance education for the public benefit by the promotion of the arts, in particular but not exclusively the art of drama.’ 

The Spire Arts supports the development and presentation of theatre and performance for the former listed church it occupies in East Brighton. It encourages an open dialogue between professional artists and local people within our space and produces a programme of audience development activity that strives to remove barriers to access, engagement and understanding. 

The Spire Arts Programme comprises three interlinked strands of activity. These are: 

1. A rolling programme of artist support through the provision of free or low-cost development space for artist and companies 

2. At key moments in Brighton & Hove’s cultural calendar we present a programme of events in partnership with other organisations (e.g. Brighton Festival, Brighton Digital Festival, Brighton Pride and at Christmas and Halloween) 

3. Advocacy and advice for local artists and companies comprising one-to-one sessions with the Co-Directors 

In summary, The Spire Arts is working to: 

- build new audiences for theatre and performance 

- enable people of different ages, backgrounds and abilities to work with professional artists to develop and realise their own creative ideas 

- create opportunities for active engagement with theatre and performance, particularly for young people and others for whom there are economic, cultural or other barriers to mainstream arts provision 

- raise the level of debate about contemporary theatre and performance practice and develop an awareness of the creative process 

- provide opportunities for artists to create new work in response to The Spire Art's unique space, or the immediate locality 

- contribute to the economic and cultural life of Brighton and Hove and the wider region 

- support the professional development of artists in the South East through the provision of advice and advocacy 

- develop partnerships with other organisations, locally and further afield, to enhance what The Spire Arts has to offer. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

Page 3 



**The Spire Arts Limited Trustees Annual Report** 

Following the success of Sheila Ghelani’s A Restorative we met with BF to reflect on the project and plan our Festival commission for May 2024. We commissioned artist Sue Hewlett to present a new iteration of her retrospective performance installation TV Dinners. 

The Spire Arts successfully secured funding to support a new music festival, Our Sounds, from Arts Council England through the Grassroots Music programme. 

Online Visitors and Social Media 

The Spire Arts increased its online content and visitors. The Spire Arts left Twitter in this period due engagement and the questionable level of discourse on the platform. Social media followers on Facebook and Instagram increased from 2,627 in 2021/22 to 3,100 in 2023/24. 

Investing in Local Artists and Creative Development 

In 2023/24 The Spire Arts worked with 8 artists and companies through providing low cost and in kind residency space. The Spire Arts champions the value of the arts by continuing to contribute to local and regional strategy, policy and provision of services through involvement with East Brighton Hub, What’s Next Brighton & Hove and the Brighton & Hove Cultural Alliance. 

Venue Hire and Income Generation 

Our ability to hire the venue in 2022/23 was impacted by continuing issues with cost of living, we generated £29,308.99 in hire income mainly through wedding receptions. During 2023-24 £15,790.64 in car parking and storage charges. Donations to the charity totalled £160.43 

Priorities and Policies 

The Spire Arts has made successful applications for project support from Arts Council England, Sussex Community Foundation, Brighton & Hove City Council, and East Brighton Trust to support our artistic programme. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

The level of reserves is monitored by the Trustees at its quarterly meetings and is currently considered to be reasonable, given the nature and scale of our activities. Our aim is that the level of free reserves (that is those funds not tied up in fixed assets and not designated or restricted) should be in the region of £10,000, which has been achieved successfully during 2023/24 The charity uses Lloyds Bank for its banking purposes. 

## **PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS** 

In January 2024, The Spire was forced to close our premises due to structural damage to the steeple of St Mark’s Chapel. This was particularly disappointing as The Spire had recently concluded a lengthy lease negotiation process securing the long-term use of St Mark's Chapel for cultural use. The closure resulted in the cancellation of our Brighton Festival 2024 commission and the Our Sounds Festival. 

As of the end of the financial year 23/24 the trustees were working closely with the Co Directors to monitor the situation with our ability to generate income curtailed. However, on learning the building was out of use for the foreseeable future and the unacceptable level of financial risk this presented to The Spire Arts, the trustees made the difficult decision to begin winding down of the charity in July 2024 and communicating with key stakeholders. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the financial statements of The Spire Arts Limited for the year ended 25 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 financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act. 

Having satisfied myself that the financial statements of the Charity 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 financial statements as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act').

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I can confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

- the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

- the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements under section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the financial statements give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

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 financial statements to be reached.

## **Taxation** 

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

Plant and machinery 25% Straight line Fixtures & fittings 25% Straight line Computer equipment 25% Straight line

Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Donated items of stock are recognised at fair value which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay for the items on the open market.

Page 11 



**The Spire Arts Limited Notes to the Accounts** 

## **Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings or current liabilities.

## **Trade and other creditors** 

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other 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.

## **Foreign currencies** 

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period.

All exchange differences are are taken into account in arriving at net income/expenditure. 

## **Leased assets** 

Where the charity enters into a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease. 

Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to charity are classified as operating leases. 

Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the charity at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet date as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the charity's policy on borrowing costs. 

Assets held under finance leases are depreciated in the same way as owned assets. 

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis. 

## **Pension costs** 

The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the company has no further payments obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds.
