The project, in partnership with The Regenda Group and match funded by Arts Council England, aimed to capture the personal stories behind the pandemic. It began with 4 months of online interviews during the first national lockdown from May 2020 and continued with 3 months of live filming sessions in early 2021 in Rochdale, Fleetwood, Manchester and Liverpool. The work was due to be premiered at the ‘Good Business Festival’ in October 2020 but was postponed until March 2022 due to the continuation of the lockdown restrictions.

The installation will run for 4 years and will be open to the public as part of Liverpool’s tourist attractions.

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
Music In Mind continued to adapt to the restrictions imposed by the Covid 19 pandemic and was able to continue to develop projects and engage with the public. The ‘Behind Doors’ domestic abuse project, in partnership with Safenet and the Calico Group, was completed and delivered online as a live stream event in early December 2020 with musicians from the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic orchestra. The work was well received and there are plans to widen the scope by developing a series of educational workshops and presentations to raise awareness about domestic abuse. Despite the 3 postponements of The Good Business festival due to Covid 19, the work continued on the ‘Lockdown Voice’ project as online interviews and some outdoor live filming in preparation for the rescheduling of The Good Business Festival in 2022.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Music in Mind CIO
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Music in Mind CIO
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Music in Mind CIO (the Trust) for the year ended 31 July 2021.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the 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 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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.
