## **Report of the trustees** 

## **For the year ended 31 March 2022** 

Reference and administrative information set out on page 1 forms part of this report. The financial statements comply with current statutory requirements, the Constitution and the Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities (effective from January 2019). 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

The charity is constituted as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) registered with the Charity Commission in England and Wales under registration number 1166817 and governed by its constitution dated 28 April 2016. 

Trustees are appointed by election at formal meetings of existing trustees as laid out in the constitution. All trustees were appointed at creation of the charity. The current trustees are at the minimum required by constitution; during this year the trustees have formally agreed a series of amendments to the constitution to enable the growth and sustainable workings of the trustees in future. 

In December of 2021, recruitment was carried out for up to two additional trustees of the charity, aiming to increase the knowledge base and stability of the charity. Interviews were held from a short list of applicants, with the successful recruitment of Carly Britton to the role under a probation period. The additional position for trustees was decided to be filled at a later date with an aim to recruit with diversity as a priority and the need to approach that appropriately. The addition of Carly to the trustees team has already proven to be a positive and useful addition, bringing further knowledge and experience to the team. 

The organisation had more structure following the planning in the 2020 period, with Eve Russell and Daryn Carter staying on as directors, Rebecca Ballard and Steph Champion remaining in role as Queer Vision lead and Volunteer manager, while Andrew Roberts and Olly Ley were in place on social media and marketing. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

Bristol Pride is a charity which campaigns for equality; challenges discrimination; creates opportunity for engagement and participation; celebrates lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender life; and works to enrich and empower LGBT+ organisations, charities and communities in the Bristol Region. 

Bristol Pride also works all year round to promote our aims and objectives, deliver a programme of schools’ engagement and, through Pride Day, offer the chance for many service providers to reach target markets, and enables the opportunity of support to the community through the Pride Day Community Area. 

Bristol Pride delivers an annual programme of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans (LGBT+) events in Bristol. This includes the LGBT History Month, World AIDS Day, events recognising International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia (IDAHOT), Queer Vision Film Festival and the flagship Bristol Pride Festival which includes a week of events across a range of arts and culture and the annual Pride Weekend. 

Bristol Pride is run by a small team assisted by volunteers to deliver the charity's objectives to campaign for LGBT equality and challenge discrimination, create opportunities for engagement and participation and celebrate LGBT+ life.

## **Report of the trustees** 

## **For the year ended 31 March 2022** 

## **Achievements and performance** 

2021 was a challenging year due to the ongoing impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, with the main pride festival event in 2020 being postponed and then cancelled. The decision was made to not commit to spending on the festival until it could be guaranteed to happen, with it being both delayed from its July date and subsequently cancelled and moved online the year before. The festival planning was structured to allow for the event to be cancelled if the impact of the pandemic indicated this would be necessary. The Trustees and Directors met regularly through the period to ensure all guidelines were followed. 

Emergency meetings with the directors and trustees were held at each major step in the timeline of festival deliverance and the decision was taken to not hold a parade or festival day at the point where it was clear those events would be severely limited by covid guidelines. As any events would have had limited capacity and require strict ticketing this was seen as in opposition to the wide accessibility that defined the event. It also was apparent that any infrastructure costs would be similar to a regular year with less chances of revenue being made to cover those costs. With these plans decided in the spring, the team looked to create events that could be run under the guidelines during the Pride festival fortnight in June and July and could be expanded if the restrictions were lifted in line with the government’s roadmap. 

Plans were put in place for a march as many protests had happened during the pandemic, and it was possible to do this socially distanced with masks. Community tent stalls were planned to be in place at the beginning and a socially distanced picnic with walk about entertainment was planned for the end. The road map was delayed and as such the march and picnic had to be cancelled on advice from Bristol City Council despite assurances from them the week before that they could go ahead with restrictions still in place. This left us with the pride week events only. 

These plans included running the Queer Vision Film Festival, continuing the online Sofa Club events that were carried out during 2020, with films shown in person at the Watershed, online collections of films being curated and shared, and an outdoor screening of Muriel’s Wedding with live performance and audience participation. Queer Vision also partnered with Kiki, an organisation focused on promoting and supporting QTIPoC people in Bristol for an event at Trinity Centre. 

Events were also arranged at the Lakota Gardens venue, providing an outdoor seated venue that could hold a 200 person capacity under the guidelines at the time. This allowed for sellout comedy and cabaret events to be held, showcasing diverse LGBT+ talent who had had fewer opportunities during the pandemic to perform. 

Other sellout events included circus at the Circomedia venue, theatre at the Improv Theatre with an additional in-person workshop by the performers, poetry at Old Market Assembly, performance at the Wardrobe theatre and the gaming day held by the Bristol Gaymers. A life drawing event was held in combination with Trans Pride South West, which had highly positive feedback. 

Though the opportunities for events were constrained, the two weeks of events were highly successful, with careful planning to mitigate risks, they provided much needed opportunities for the Bristol LGBT+ community to reconnect and begin to be in queer spaces after a long period of absence. By postponing and cancelling the festival in good time, little financial cost was accrued allowing the event to remain solvent and in a strong position for the next year.

## **Report of the trustees** 

## **For the year ended 31 March 2022** 

## **Public benefit** 

The trustees confirm their due regard for the Charity Commission Guidance on Public Benefit in reviewing Bristol Pride’s aims, objectives and activities undertaken, planning future strategy and setting policy. 

## **COVID-19 impact** 

Due to experience from the previous year and the support of the ACE funding the finances of the festival were able to be kept steady and not use up reserves that would put the charity at risk. 

The events held in July were of smaller nature or fewer in number than in previous years, and the mix of venues were limited compared to previous years. However, the team was able to produce content that represented a diverse selection of the LGBT+ community and connect people in ways not available in the previous year. This was to be celebrated under the circumstances. 

The accounts have been prepared on the assumption that the charity is able to continue as a going concern, which the trustees consider appropriate having regard to future confirmed funding, revised budgets for 2022/23 and cash balances at the signing date. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on the global economy and has in turn affected the charity. The trustees have considered the impact of this issue on the charity’s current and future financial position. The charity has obtained Cultural Recovery Funding of £70,893 from the Arts Council. With the successful management of these funds, the trustees therefore consider that the charity is a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from the date on which these financial statements are approved. 

## **Financial review** 

As with previous years the majority of income and expenditure was expected to be generated around the July festival. However, with the events cancelled the largest expenditure was on staff costs for the year, following the growth of the team in 2019 and 2020. Grants were the biggest single income source for the year. 

Sponsorship of events and ticket sales were still a large source of income for the charity, with these numbers being reduced from active festival years but still healthy considering the reduction in activity for 2022. Donations were significantly down as expected from the festival not taking place, but a strong appetite for Pride events in 2022 would be expected to bring in comparable or increased income than the festival in 2019.

## **For the year ended 31 March 2022** 

## **Reserves policy** 

Unrestricted reserves held at 31 March 2022 are £246,146. Due to the charity taking and spending the majority of its funds over the first 6 months of the year, the unrestricted funds are held to cover the running costs (i.e. office space and staff costs) for the autumn and winter periods when there is little to no income. The unrestricted funds are aimed to be kept at a minimum of £250,000, to leave unrestricted reserves of £40,000 after all event expenses for the July festival are covered. The festival was able to avoid using any of the reserved funds and remain above this minimum. 

With the impact of COVID-19 it is considered that it is needed to run a festival to have any income to cover staff costs, as most funding is in forms of donation or sponsorship, and to apply for emergency funding to cover the loss of income caused by the pandemic and potential loss of physical events. 

## **Statement of responsibilities of the trustees** 

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

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees are to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and the incoming resources and application of resources, including the net income or expenditure, of the charity for the year. In preparing those 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 accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

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

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the constitution. The trustees 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. 

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charity's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 

Members of the charity have no liability to contribute to the assets of the charity in the event of winding up. The trustees are members of the charity, but this entitles them only to voting rights. The trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity.

- (3) the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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. 

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.

## **Bristol Pride** 

## **Notes to the financial statements** 

## **For the year ended 31 March 2022** 

**1. Accounting policies** 

## **a) Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities in preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

Bristol Pride meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note. 

## **b) Going concern basis of accounting** 

The accounts have been prepared on the assumption that the charity is able to continue as a going concern, which the trustees consider appropriate having regard to the current level of unrestricted reserves of £246,416. There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 

## **c) Income** 

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

Income from the government and other grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue' grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. 

Income received in advance of the Bristol Pride Festival is deferred until criteria for income recognition are met. 

## **d) Interest receivable** 

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity: this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank. 

## **e) Donated services and facilities** 

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item, is probable and the economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised. 

On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

## **Bristol Pride** 

## **Notes to the financial statements** 

## **For the year ended 31 March 2022** 

## **1. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## **f) Funds accounting** 

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the charity. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity's work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity. 

## **g) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT** 

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. 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred. 

## **h) Allocation of support and governance costs** 

Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Governance costs are the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the charity, including the costs of complying with constitutional and statutory requirements and any costs associated with the strategic management of the charity’s activities. These costs have been allocated between cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities in the same proportions as direct costs: **2022** 2021 Raising funds **5.9%** 5.9% Charitable activities **94.1%** 94.1% 

## **i) Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **j) Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. 

## **k) Creditors** 

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. 

## **l) 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 with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

## **For the year ended 31 March 2022** 

## **1. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## **m) Accounting estimates and key judgements** 

- In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. 

There are no key sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements.
