## Report from the Chair: 

The acquisition of 21, St Nicholas Street has been the CIO’s focus this year, knowing that our lease would not be extended beyond December 2023. 

Working with fundraiser Sarah Williams, Autumn 2022 was dedicated to building a successful bid to the Government’s levelling up Community Ownership Fund (COF). Bid delivered, we launched the ‘Save Our Story’ Fundraising Campaign on 26th January with a further two public presentations and  one to Diss Town Council in February. We also attracted a number of high-profile local figures as Patrons; Author Louis de Berniere, Broadcaster Martha Kearney, Artist Martin Laurence, Journalist  Janet Trewin and Textile designer Margo Selby. Helped by media coverage plus donations to our planned Auction from Sir Antony Gormley, Laurence Edwards and many other local and regional artists and supporters, our story was widely shared. 

We were delighted to hear in March that we had been successful in our bid to COF; we received a promise of £171,750 capital grant (divided £125,000 building purchase and £46,750 essential building works) to be match funded. And a further 19,848 revenue grant.  With a clear fundraising target and deadline our local campaign gained further momentum. 

In addition to fundraising, we completed the planned re- fit of the front of the main building, creating a new and more spacious volunteer station, additional gallery space and a more open and welcoming access for visitors. The new gallery area has the benefit of being a flexible space which can be adapted for events and one-off mini displays. 

Installation of a flexible track lighting system in our upper exhibition space has made it a far more attractive environment to display work and will  it make it  more possible to offer the space to visiting artists. 

As part of our community outreach,  we developed partnerships with two local charities, Solo Housing – who work with local homeless people - and Street Forge. We hosted the launch of a collection of gorgeous  jewellery made by clients of Solo Housing and now have dedicated exhibition space for this and the beautifully crafted wooden bird boxes etc by Street forge, a charity that works with adults with additional needs. 

## Full Members: 

Full time members continue to manage the day to day needs of both the CIO and dm21 - co-ordinating all events, marketing and building maintenance. The team has benefitted from the skills and energies brought by three new members. The space behind our ceramics studio is now a thriving lithography and print studio  with a new offer of stone lithography workshops while sessions with a focus on  creativity for wellbeing are offered by one of our other new members.  It is also good to see new collaborations emerging through print, but also in evidence at Folk East August 2022 when a group of members offered a range of workshops.

## Guest Members: 

Our Guest membership scheme has continued to thrive this year with 5 new guest members. This scheme provides the opportunity for local artists to further develop their practice in a studio setting while benefiting from being part of a community of artists; the scheme also gives Guest members access to mentorship as well as potential collaborative experiences. The CIO of course also benefits from additional craft practices on offer to visiting members of the public. We are delighted that 3 Guest members have gone on to be accepted as Full Members meaning that our Full membership is nearly at capacity once more. 

## Associate Members and Showcase: 

Our Associate Membership  scheme as well as the Showcase Gallery, continue to be successful in extending the range of craft disciplines we present. This year 10 artists and makers showcased with us for the first time, and we  also welcomed back two popular ‘show casers’ from previous years. Extending the range of work on show at designermakers21 broadens our appeal to visitors and ensures a dynamic experience to inspire repeat visits. 

## Events and workshops: 

We have run a range of events and workshops this year.  Two ‘Have  a Go’ days and our popular ‘Print in Action’ have attracted a large number of visitors of all ages, trying out new skills. Many have signed up for workshops. A highlight from ‘Print in Action’ in March, was the ‘Lend a Hand’ activity where visitors could contribute to our fundraising by printing their hands on to a banner for the  ‘Save Our Story’ display. 

A regular fixture in our events calendar is now the very popular ‘Summer Expo’ which once again attracted local talent who enjoyed having the opportunity to have their work displayed. One exhibitor went on to have her own exhibition with us as well as running a popular ‘Clay Sheep’ workshop. We also had two further Saori Weave exhibitions showcasing the beautiful work produced by ‘Saori’ students. 

’The Elephant in the Room’ took place in July 2022 at Diss Corn hall and once more gave members, associates and trustees the opportunity to create work to a shared theme. Future exhibitions are planned with Diss Corn Hall which remains our key local partner in the arts. 

During our yearly participation in Norfolk Open Studios, members enjoyed sharing their skills with visitors to the packed taster day as well as welcoming new visitors to designermakers21 across all three weekends. 

With a focus on fundraising combined with making art more accessible, we were delighted to promote the ‘Big Sell’, a sale of Jacqui Petrie’s donated work with all proceeds going towards ‘Save Our Story’. We also thank Becky Whatley for offering the proceeds from her needle Felting Workshop. Both are examples of the generosity of our supporters. More supporters have come forward with ideas to be developed as we move forward, including ‘Cake and Make’ a monthly activity developed by Saori weave students to be open to any members of the local community as a place to share their work and support one another’s creativity.

## **r** designe io makersC 


We continue to promote the activities at dm21 through targeted marketing including Facebook and Instagram, advertisements in local print media & local radio and a range of leaflets promoting our charity, events and workshops. 

## And now to the future…… 

We move into the next year with a clear focus. 

Our creativity, energy, determination and tenacity will be even more important as we drive forward the ‘Save Our Story’ Campaign with a clear aim to raise match funding for the COF grant. 

Following our success with COF, we have been heartened by the local community response, as well as interest shown by other funding bodies.  We are optimistic that we can secure the required funding. We have a packed year of events which will attract new audiences as well as repeat visitors, continuing to inspire interest in the arts and encouraging others to learn a new skill. We remain committed to creativity, the arts as a pathway to wellbeing and to showcasing excellence in craft. 

And, most importantly, we look forward to making our dream a reality by securing our home at 21, St Nicholas Street for the benefit of future generations.

## Notes: 

## Revenues 

The period from April 2022 to October 2022 was one of ‘business as usual’ in terms of income, with rents and commissions showing a steady income stream which continued to the end of the financial period. With the AGM in October we re-launched our Just Giving online donations page and re-launched the Friends of designermakersCIO, however, the bulk of income listed in the ‘Revenues-Building Funds’ section of the Profit & Loss report began to arrive following the official launch of the Save Our Story campaign in January 2023. 

February saw the launch of  Jacqui Petrie’s ‘Big Sell’ of artwork. This campaign ran through  to November 2023, by April 2022 it had already amassed £438 (the true figure is more than this, but due our quirky accounting procedures the rest was subsumed into the general fundraising stream). 

By April the Friends scheme had attracted 32 subscribers, this has been a good way to connect with some of our strongest supporters and we look forward to continuing the scheme while, hopefully, expanding opportunities for subscribers. 

The kiln firing fees are managed by Kate Welton, they include a sum to cover the maintenance of dm21’s kiln and contribute to the overall cost of electricity for 21 St Nicholas street. 

## Expenses 

Our regular expenses held mostly true to previous years, with increases in expenditure for fundraising (including Fundraising, marketing, Events and Office expendables) following the launch and promotion of the Save Our Story fundraising campaign. 

Notable expenses for 2022-2023 include: 

   - Installation of lighting system in Gallery upstairs – repairs-refurbs 

- Installation of fire extinguishers with certificate to comply with fire risk-assessment – Safety 

- equipment. 

   - The section ‘Repairs’ includes the annual kiln servicing charge and materials for the new volunteers 

desk. 

- Grant Spending-Post Covid Workshops – this expense drew on grant funding received in 2021.

## **Section A                        Independent Examiner’s Report** 

**Report to the trustees/** Charity Name **members of** Designermakers CIO **On accounts for the year** 04/04/2023 **Charity no** 1167949 **ended (if any) Set out on pages** 1 - 2 (remember  to include the page numbers of additional sheets) I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended **04/04/2022** . **Responsibilities and** As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the **basis of report** accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”). 

I report in respect of my examination of  the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

**Independent** I have completed my examination.  I confirm that no material matters have **examiner's statement** come to my attention in connection with the examination (other than that disclosed below *) which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: 

- the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or 

- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

- the accounts did 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.
