Joe joined the wup via his GP surg¢ry and found it led to volunteering elsewhere. 14e had a recurrence of
some health issues and became nervous to go out due to dizziness. Th¢ group h¢lp¢d him feel safer to come
out and other group members who lived nearby started to walk ehch other home and Francis could pop to get
groceries as well as finding the interaction a highlight of the week and his mental health improved seeing the
group check in and the others always welcome him back aft¢r ab5¢nc¢s. H¢ f¢els happier being out
knowing he will often see one of the others for moral 4UPPOrt and this mcans hc has kept touch with his

The Lost Clty of Cardboard: A Homelessness Herltage Project
We embarked on a heritage pn)ject to remember and mcmorialise Cardboard City and th¢ related ¢phern¢ral
and neglected heritage of homelcss peoplc in the arca. Thc Lost City of Cardboard (cventually rcnamcd as
The Spirit of the Bullring lives on. .) initiative was spearheaded by artist.8 and project leaders who have
experienced hom¢l¢ssne8s, and over th¢ next twelve months engaged dir¢¢tly with individual$ who resid
in thc Bullring, those who provided support to its inhabitants, and local residents with recollections of or an
interest in shedding light on this heritage. Additionallyi the project involved participants of TBAW'S
Programme and the devoted churchyard garden volunteers.
At lh¢ vcry start of th¢ project, we T¢cruilcd David Tovey and Bekki Perriman as the two leading artists, with
Saz Denny - a fonner Bullring resident - jOAning later on in the year. Together with journalist Samir Jeraj and
our Artistic Director, they gatheTed and documented infomiation particularly through oral interviews and
pholographs.
The project was officially announced in February with coverage on BBC News and local media. It was
rundcd by Hisloric England's Ev¢ryday Heritag¢ grant programm¢, ¢¢lebrating working class histories.
In the f￿st nine months up to the end of 2024, the core team mosily worked on gathering as much
inforn￿tiOll as possible as well as meeting with fonner residen18 of the Bullring. This proces8 wasn't easy
and it took months of relationship building and research. Howevcr. by mid-Autumn wc had managcd to

a mor¢ concr¢te shape.

with some of these artists about how to sustain connections, support their projects, and develop work

featuring s¢veral of the local cr¢atives in late November, with the aim of testing out new ways of working

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 Deccmber 2024
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basls of preparlng the financlal statements
The flnancial statements of the charitsble company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102,
have been prcparLd in accordancc with the Charities SORP IFRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by
Charities: Statement of Recommended Practi¢e applicable to charities pr¢paring their accounts in
accordance with the Financial Rcporting Standard applicable in the UK and R¢public of Ireland {FRS
102) (¢ffcctive l January 2019),, Financial R¢porting Standard 102 'The Financial Rcporting Standard
applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland, and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements
have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
Principle Activity
The principal activity of the charity is to develop and execute projects and activities, on its own and in
collaboration with partners, that enhance social Cohesion and develop individual economic and social
participation, where possible through heritage and the Arts. In order to do this we utilise any grant
income we receiv¢.
Legal status
Thc cbarity is a Company limited by 8uarantce and has no share capital. The liability of cach member
in the event of winding-up is limited to £10.
Going Concern
TBAW continu¢d to deliver its projects and camc through the year with a surplu5 of income over
expenditure of £12,445 (2023 deficit £6.101) and free reserves of £21,260 (2023 £20,124. TBA W is
no longer responsible for managing and letting St John's and St John's Andrew's Churches, and so will
continu¢ to dcvelop and deliver its projccts and make applications to grant giving bodies to support
this.
The Trustees have concluded that due to the Continuing support of the PCC and its r¢s¢ryes, TBA W is
in a sound financial position for the future.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of FiT)ancial Activities once the charity has cntillement to
the funds, it is probablc that the income will be received and thc amount can be measured reliably.
Expendlture
Llabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a l¢gal or cOnSt￿ctive obligatlon
committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of cconomic benefits will be
required in scttlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is
account¢d for on ￿ accruals basis and has been classified undcr headings that aggregate all cosi
r¢lat¢d to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been
allocated to activities on a basi8 eonsistenl with the use of resources.
Debtors
Short tern] debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairn]ent. IA)an8 receivable are
m¢asured initially at fair valu¢, n¢t of transaction costs, and arc mcasured subs¢quently al amortiscd
cost using the effective inter¢5t m¢thod, less any impainnent.
Cash at bank and in hand

The Brid

Notes to the Financial Statcmcnts - continued

ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Expendlture
Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty
on notice of not mor¢ than 24 hours. Cath equivalents are higbly liquid invcstments that mature in no
niore than three months fron] ihe date of acquisition and that ar¢ r¢adily convertible to known
amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.
Credltors and provlslons
Short terni creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities. including bank
loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequentty at
amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Financial Instruments
The Company only enters into basic financial instniments transactions that result in the recognition of
fjnancial assets and liabilities like tradc and othcr dcbior8 and crcdilors, lo&ns from banks and oth¢r
third parties, loans to related parties and investments in non-puttable ordinary shares.
Debt instruments (other than those wholly repayable or receivable within one year), including loans
and oth¢r a¢¢ounts r¢¢¢ivable and payablc, arc initially measured al present value of the future cash
flows and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt insttuments thal
are payable OT receivable within one year, typically trade debtors and creditors, are measured, inilially
and subsequelltly* at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected lo be paid
or received. However, if the arrangements of a short-terni instrLllnent constitute a financing
transa¢tioll, like the payment of a trade debt deferred beyond nornydl business tern]s or hnanced at
ratc of interest that is not a m&rket TAte or in case of an out-right short-tenn loan not at market rate, the
financial asset or liability 18 measured, initially, at the present value of the future cash flow discount¢d
at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrunient and subsequently at amortised cost.
Taxatlon
The clwity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
Fund Accountlng
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discrction of the
trustees.
Restricted fimds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within thc objccts of th¢ charity.
Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raiscd for particular restricted
purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in th¢ notes to the financial
statements.
Penslon costs and other post-retirement benefits
The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to
th¢ ¢lwitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statcmcllt of Financial Activitics in the
period to which they relate.
