## **CHAIR'S REPORT** Mary Compton-Rickett 

2024-2025 

Both the Williamson and the Priory have had successful years in terms of exhibitions and events. The financial position of the Council itself remained somewhat precarious as with so many local authorities, but the position of the gallery itself is probably secure, albeit underfunded, as current council policy acknowledges the importance of culture. Having said that, budget cuts unfortunately have resulted in some of the monies initially allocated to the Priory under the Birkenhead redevelopment plans being withdrawn. The Williamson started the year at least one key member of staff down, having no exhibitions officer. In June, a new recruit started, but unfortunately she was quickly enticed away by the Victoria Gallery & Museum in Liverpool.  Despite budget issues and staff shortages, the Williamson team were able to deliver a full programme of exhibitions and events, starting with two exhibitions of local war artist Albert Richards and of impressionist influenced Philip Steer , both exhibitions showing works from our own collection. By way of contrast, the gallery honoured a local celebrity, Elizabeth Smolen, whose shop in Rock Ferry in mid twentieth century was a draw for all lovers of scooters. Well done Sam, Josh and the rest of the team. The interactive installation “Subterranean Elevator” by Di Di Mainstone with technical help of local organisations MAKE! And Scenegraph Studio, attracted large numbers, as did the always welcome and popular Oxton Art Fair weekend in November. We have enjoyed talks from exhibition artists and by Josh Mackarell, manager of the collection. 

This has proved to be something of a year of innovation. The introduction of an artist in residence,  local artist Steve des Landes, proved to be a big success and his open and welcoming attitude to all art lovers has been much appreciated. He has proved to be an enthusiastic supporter of the Friends. 

In the summer, a new permanent contemporary craft gallery opened with some lovely pieces not seen before. In September, WAG opened its doors on Mondays and Tuesdays, making Mondays community groups day, with an invitation to local groups to come in and use the spaces. 

The Priory also ran a successful year of tours and events, such as the summer Sunday music events and the very popular concerts and events in December. 

The Friends continue to support the gallery and museum. We helped to purchase a lovely drawing by Harold Rathbone (see page two), due to go on display in 2026. We also

helped purchase a Della Robbia piece, also by Rathbone himself, a Salamander vase. We contributed towards a ceramic piece displayed in the contemporary craft gallery. One of the Steer paintings, a self portrait, needed frame restoration, for which we paid, together with some framing and mounts for the Richards exhibition. 

We continue to maintain the garden - The Green Gallery.  We are trying to introduce a bit more colour, which is not easy as most of the beds are shady for large parts of the day. The garden is probably still under-used, but there is now a sign in the cafe announcing its existence, so hopefully more people will now find it and use it. 

I would like to thank all the Trustees for their support and contributions, to Susanne for managing the membership - a big job, to Ann for taking on the role of Treasurer and to Mike for another successful year of external events. I also thank Alison for continuing to produce and send out our newsletter and for giving us so much background help.

## **TREASURER’S REPORT** 

Our sources of income are membership fees, with any additional member donations and cash donations collected from the Williamson and Priory. The latter includes sales of teddy monks, which project is now coming to an end. Coach trips are paid for by booking charges to members wishing to go. 

The year began with reserves in a healthy position and despite contributions to some significant art purchases during the year, we ended with capital to carry forward to the next year. The gallery purchased two items by Harold Rathbone, a drawing (currently in the Pre-Raphaelite exhibition) at over £6000 with charges and a Salamander pottery vase at a more modest cost. Friends paid for both these items with the addition of contributions from two individuals (not Friends) who were happy to use us as a conduit for payment. Later in the year, a contemporary pottery piece by Katrin Moyes was purchased, towards which Friends contributed £3000.That piece can be seen in the new contemporary craft gallery. We also paid for some framing and mounting of pieces for exhibitions. 

Our expenses are largely the cost of producing and sending out the newsletter by email and post, preparing for and holding the AGM, including with some refreshments. This year we bought some long overdue pop up banners. In addition we have accountant's fees and BAFM membership  which insures for public liability for the coach trips. There are postage costs, which continue to rise. Fortunately the number of people who need posted material continues to reduce and we are grateful to members who provide e-mail addresses when they can. 

|Income and Receipts|£14,930.14|

|Administrative Expenses|£1813.75|

|Net income|£11,256.84|



Capital Expenditure (acquisitions and renovations) £14,740.40 reduced to £12,900.40 by individual contributions from non members.

## **VISITS** 


## **2024/25** 

The programme of outings by Williamson and Priory Friends to other venues of cultural interest again proved a success. In July we arranged a two-centre visit by coach to Cliffe Castle Museum, Keighley, and the Cartwright Hall Art Gallery, Bradford. The visits coincided with exhibitions at each venue contributing to Bradford’s year as UK City of Culture. Cliffe Castle impressed with its collections of paintings and other art, furniture and displays about nature and archaeology. The “City of 

Culture” exhibition Ice Age Art Now, in partnership with the British Museum, showed works of art thousands of years old. Cartwright Hall displayed Victorian and Edwardian works of art and later 20th century works by L S Lowry and Andy Warhol, and by Bradford-born David Hockney. In association with the National Portrait Gallery, Sir Joshua Reynolds’ painting Portrait of Mai was exhibited as part of Bradford’s UK City of Culture celebrations. 

In November a coach trip was planned to The Harris Museum and Art Gallery, Preston. The Harris had recently reopened following a £16 million refurbishment. It is one of the leading museums and contemporary art venues in the region, with fine collections. Our visit will coincide with a special exhibition featuring the much-loved animated characters Wallace & Gromit.

## **BIRKENHEAD PRIORY Elaine Heritage** 

**The Birkenhead Priory Report** (www.thebirkenheadpriory.org) 

The Chapter house, founded in 1150, is the oldest intact building on Merseyside. At Christmas 2024 it resounded with ancient carols to the delight of packed audiences. 

Hundreds of Snowdrops ‘in the green’ were planted by volunteers to flower next year - kindly  donated by Mr Campbell. Snowdrops historically feature in monastic grounds, representing Mary the Virgin at the feast of  Candlemas on 2[nd] February. 

Easter Bunny  hopped in just before Easter ’25 directing many families and children, who followed trails and answered quiz questions with great enthusiasm to find Easter Eggs. 

Volunteers and Council workers led tours of the almost 900 old Chapter house and the extensive Priory site, including St Mary’s  tower & spire have stood on this site for 200 yrs. The increased number of visitors expressed amazement at the survival of this unique place.  Organised groups of adults and school children visited and left more knowledgeable and a little in awe of the tranquillity they found. 

During the summer, many  varied musical & dramatic events took place, including an outdoor performance of  ‘Treasure Island’, to very appreciative audiences. Young photographers attended a workshop, displaying their images in the Refectory. 

All those who visit, volunteer or work at The Birkenhead Priory express their concern for its future. Severe cracks are visible in the Chapter house and as a Grade 1 listed building, it urgently needs a co-operative effort from the Church of England who own it & the Council,  to refurbish it. The Conway Association have removed many artifacts from the scriptorium over the chapel to ease stress on the fabric of the chapel. 

A disabled lift to the Refectory is promised for 2026, and enhanced lighting of the Spire at night. Achieving this may require restricted access or even closure of the whole site. 

Additional information is available on The Birkenhead Priory website.

## **Membership** 

## **WPF Annual report 2025** 

At the end of October 2025, we had 350 members. The vast majority are from Wirral – as to be expected. However, we attract support from the region and beyond, with members across Merseyside, as well as in Cheshire, Wales and the rest of the UK (including London, Sussex, Bristol and Derbyshire). Thanks to all those who support us wherever you are. 

35 new members joined – a slight increase on the previous year. 5 members resigned their membership. Some – not all - give a reason, such as moving out of the area. 

I’m pleased to say that by October 2025, over 85% of members made bank payments. This saves admin work but, more importantly, saves the Friends money in bank charges, as we have to pay for each cash or cheque deposit. We are working to encourage all members to pay by automatic transfer and, just as importantly, set up a recurring standing order for renewals. If you joined at the Gallery by paying cash for your first year’s subscription, can I encourage you to set up a standing order for subsequent renewals.

applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland {FRS 1021". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by
FRS 102.
The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a statement of
cash flows.
The financial statements have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to
the extent required lo provide a true and fair view. This departure has involved following the Statement of

The financial statements are prepared in sterfing. which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetsry
amounts in these financial ststemenls are rounded to the nearest £.
