OBJECTS

the advancement of the education of the general public in all matters relation to Parkinson’s Disease and other issues of health and wellbeing:
the relief of sufferers of such illnesses and in particular helping them to come
to terms and generally cope psychologically with their condition by, in both
cases, stimulating debate and raising awareness through the medium of theatre, film, publishing, broadcast and digital technology.
Education of Healthcare and Social Care professionals and students

ACTIVITIES DURING THE PERIOD.

This has been a relatively quiet year for DT2 Productions. The highlight of the year was the showing of both films – What A Load Of Balls: The Parkinson’s Lottery and Kinetics at the World Parkinson’s Congress in Barcelona in July. Sue Wylie and her son Ben attended the conference and held a Q&A session afterwards. Attending the conference allowed Sue and Ben to network with other organisations such a Cure Parkinson’s.

Much of the rest of the year was spent planning the re-promotion of both films via a mailout to Parkinson’s UK branches (which was done in early 2024) and finishing the audio version (which was done in May 2024)

Further work was done on recruiting new Trustees and two who were approached in 2023 joined the board in early 2024.

FINANCIAL MATTERS

The charity received no donations during the financial period. The bank reserves at the beginning of 2023 were £2932.91.

Reserves Policy

The charity has reviewed its reserves policy, taking into account recommendations by the Charity Commission, so as to establish an acceptable level of reserves which is the cornerstone of prudent financial management of the charity. Because the charity has so ongoing commitments with regard to employment or premises and each project is budgeted individually, it was agreed that £500 to cover minor ongoing administrative costs is an appropriate level of reserves

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and

They are also responsible for ensuring that the Charity maintains an adequate system of internal control designed to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss or unauthorised use and to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities.
