The Accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting
policies set out in Note 1 to the accounts and comply with the Trust's governing
document, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the
Charities Act 2011.

Structure, governance and management

The Trust was established as a charitable incorporated organisation by
it's foundation constitution dated 17th August, 2016.

The trustees who served in the period were:

Malcolm Taylor(Chairman)
Jessica Franses(Vice-Chairman)
Andrew Stahl
Stephanie Johnson(Resigned March 2021)

Trustees are selected and appointed by the Trustee Board.

There are no related parties that require disclosure during the period.

The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the trust is exposed,
and are satisfied that the systems are in place to mitigate exposure to major risks.

Objectives and activities

The Trust's objectives are to promote, maintain, improve and advance education in
the Arts generally, for the benefit of the public and in particular, to achieve
these ends by:

a)-the encouragement of sculpture, painting, drawing, design, lithography, print
making, graphics, poetry, literature, film, photography and music

and;

b) the advancement of skill and craftsmanship therein

The Trust furthers it's charitable purposes principally through the making of awards to
appropriate individuals or organisations.

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charities Commission
in deciding what activities the trust should undertake.

Achievements and performance

During the year, the Trust has continued to market the charity with a view to increasing
the number and level of donations. This work continues.

The Trust has worked to identify exhibitions where emerging artists were presenting
their work and, where suitable candidates were identified, awards were duly made with
the aim of encouraging those artists to continue with their endeavours.

Unfortunatley, due to the Global Pandemic, there were no Prizes awarded this year.

Further suitable exhibitions have been identified and we hope to make further awards
during the coming year.

Financial Review

The results for the period and details of awards made (if any) are shown in the annexed
accounts which are prepared on a receipts and payments basis.

Cash reserves at the year end amounted to £42,616  (2020 £43, 527) - all related to
unrestricted funds. It is the policy of the Trustees that the unrestricted funds be
carried forward to fund a programme of awards whilst the fund-raising activities of the
Trust continue to gather pace.
