Chairpersons report for 1/11/2021 – 31/10/2022
St Just Ordinalia
The final performance on Saturday 18[th] September 2021 – was followed by 4 weeks of hard work, including clearing up and sorting of props, sets and costumes.
Kresen Kernow accepted posters and programmes from St Just Ordinalia 2021 for their archive, and players were paid for their participation in the closing event there. Evaluations were completed and final grant payments received.
The Trust received (then paid into the Ordinalia account) under the production agreement Theatre Tax Relief of £23,029.19
Meanwhile Robin Simpson worked on editing the film footage from all three plays in order to create a top quality 2hr ‘selected scenes’ film which can be purchased by cast and crew at a discounted rate of £3 or by the public for £5 .
After months of work from Robin and Mary Ann working hard on the edit and Claud Tonietto on the subtitles the film went public on Vimeo in early March 2022. The film was also offered as part of the Carn to Cove programme.
In this financial year we made 77 sales of the film , with an additional 108 on demand views, with the short trailer promoting the film being watched 403 times. The film had two showings through Carn to Cove, in St Austell and Coverack.
Also Ordinalia related : our artist in residence Micheal Fenner -had an exhibition at the Knut of his Ordinalia paintings and drawings (including sales of prints) over the 2022 August bank holiday weekend. A percentage of the profits went to the Ordinalia.
The Knut
as a result of the Ordinalia Cornish Language classes started in the Knut for several weeks as a regular booking led by Fiona O’Cleirigh. Also a drama improvisation workshop was held at the Knut by cast members.
Player Darcey Ball and son of another player Jack Brownridge-Kelly rented the Knut to develop their own creative pieces (Jack has just performed his play ‘Cold Dark matters’ at the Acorn). We also received rent for part time use of the office space for 6 months to a funded creative practitioner.
Many local groups rented the Knut including; Cornwall Wildlife Trust, Penwith Landscape Partnership, Land End Community Trust , St Just Skatepark and Sports
Centre committees, Bosavern Community Farm and St Just Town Council, who used it for their ‘Town Vision’ community consultation.
Shallah dance group rented the Knut in September 2022 as a green room for their Ordinalia inspired performance in the Plen an Gwari.
We also offered the Knut free to a community ‘free lunches’ initiative in August when the cost of living rise meant local families were struggling.
We held two events at the Knut with Emilio Ayto playing on 20[th] August , and the Sea Swimmers poetry group on 29[th] October 2022.
The Velux window was eventually repaired in Oct 2022 after 11months of waiting at a cost of £494.
The Trust
The Trust received £240 income from renting out the projector and screen to a range of mainly local groups, and also £275 for hire of steeldeck from the garage to Rift from Redruth and Wildworks theatre.
The Trust received a £1850 grant from St Just Town Council to provide a long weekend of free events and entertainment for the Queens Jubilee in early June, all focused in the Plen an Gwari this included a day of music from Lafrowda festival, Pendeen Silver Band, and a free lunch for over 70 people made up of the towns many volunteers followed by a community Barn Dance and performance from Shindig, with tea and cake served. A great time was had by all.

Independent Examiners Report to the Trustees
for the Year Ending 31st October 2022
Basis of Independent Examiner's Report
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity (including all receipts, invoices, bank statements and other financial documents) and a comparison of the Financial Statements for the year with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the Trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in a full audit. The report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiner's Report
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
1 which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements: to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act 2011 to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or
-
2 to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached
