OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

Purposes and Aims

Our charity's purposes as set out in the objects contained in the company's memorandum of association are:

For the public benefit, to

  1. Promote and advance the visual contemporary arts in particular but not exclusively by

a) Promoting and exhibiting works of artistic excellence,

b) Commissioning the creation of works of artistic merit, and

c) Providing gallery and studio space and other facilities for the creation and public display of work

  1. Advance education in the visual contemporary arts in particular but not exclusively by

a) Providing lectures, seminars, practical courses and publications,

b) Providing facilities and resources for artists, art historians, art critics, students and the general public, and

c) Cultivating and improving practical and theoretical literacy

For the purposes of these objects, "visual contemporary arts" includes but is not limited to sculpture, photography, painting, performance, installation, film and video.

The charity aims to provide artists with the time, space and support they need in order to take risks and produce their best work. We aim to maintain a vital and distinctive collaborative approach to working with artists, acting as an essential thinking space away from the pressures of the commercial environment. We aim to be an open and approachable space for our audiences, providing exhibitions of the highest quality and reaching out to students of the arts. Our aims fully reflect the purposes that the charity was set up to further.

Ensuring our work delivers our aims

We review our aims, objectives and activities each year. This review looks at what we achieved and the outcomes of our work in the previous 12 months. The review looks at the success of each key activity and the benefits they have brought to those groups of people we are set up to help. The review also helps us ensure our aims, objectives and activities remained focused on our stated purposes. We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.

The focus of our work

The main objective for the year continued to be the commissioning and exhibition of new work and generating education programmes around those works.

The strategies we used to meet these objectives included:

How our activities deliver public benefit

Matt's Gallery is committed to creating opportunities for artists to push the boundaries of their practice. Key to this is providing the space, support and resources required for artists at all stages in their careers to create ambitious new works. Matt's Gallery exists to significantly impact and promote visual culture within the UK and internationally. We present exhibitions of high quality visual contemporary arts in free and accessible spaces.

Alongside and during exhibitions the Gallery's Director Robin Klassnik facilitates talks and discussions for visiting Higher and

Further Education groups.

Matt's Gallery is working towards making its extensive archive accessible to the public.

The trustees have considered the Charity Commision's guidance on public benefit, including the guidance 'public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Significant activities

1) Promoting and advancing the visual contemporary arts

Our year began with exhibitions by Nicola Bealing and Carolyn Thompson open at our Nine Elms space, and Mike Nelson at our former space on Webster Road, Bermondsey. The exhibition programme for the year included a special weekend of screenings from our MattFlix Programme, dinner events with the Amber Room and solo exhibitions by recent graduate Nina Davies, and Richard Grayson who has worked with the gallery for 20 years. Davies' exhibition included an ambitious performance programme that spilled out of the gallery into the nearby streets, drawing in many spectators. These projects attracted an estimated audience totalling 11,500.

Alongside this, events including our Jean Fisher Archive Reading Group series, which continues to explore the archive of the late Jean Fisher- writer, curator and educator, and artist talks with Grayson and Davies have animated the programme.

Matt's Gallery also delivered three projects through its online platform 'MattFlix', attracting around 2000 viewers over the year. Artists featured included Joe Walsh, Lawrence Lek and Graham Fagen. Lek's newly commissioned interactive online game marked the end of a period of online activity supported by the Art Fund.

With support secured from London Communities Foundation - Cockayne Foundation, the gallery continued to further develop its archive over the year, with significant progress being made towards making this resource available to the public.

2) Advancing education in the visual contemporary arts

Alongside the engaging public talks, outlined above, publishing continued to be a major part of the gallery's educational output. Two editions of the ongoing 'Q' series of artist interviews conducted by our Deputy Director were published.

The gallery's Stanley Picker Traineeship continued, giving professional development opportunities to young people seeking to build a career in the contemporary visual arts sector. Lottie Gomes completed her traineeship, with Shireen McCormack commencing hers. The traineeship continues to focus on providing opportunities to candidates from Black, Asian and ethnically diverse backgrounds, who are underrepresented in the arts.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Significant events

The charity, with the aid of sound financial management and the support of its staff and Trustees, generated a positive financial outcome for the period. Income this year was £277,829, compared to £307,141 in 2022/23 which included the completion of our first phase of development works on our new premises in Nine Elms. The tangible fixed asset value of £577,288 reflects the amount invested in our building, depreciating year by year since in completion in the 2022/23 financial year.

The gallery continued to pay rent at £10,000 per annum over the year. This rent is reviewed every five years in line with inflation. The rent review carried out in April 2024 will bring the annual rental charge up to £13,368 in the coming year. Service charges were paid at £19,617, reflecting arrears accrued due to delayed billing by Wandsworth Borough Council. A payment plan is in place, which will the arrears paid off completely by June 2025.

Note 17 in the accounts shows £42,175 of Trade Creditors the majority of these are made up of £24,521 Service Charge Arrears (referenced above), and £9,839 in Business Rates. In April 2024 Matt's Gallery was granted full discretionary Business Rates relief by Wandsworth Borough Council, meaning this figure was cleared and no further Business Rates will be due. Other Creditors, owed £21,475, includes a personal loan of £15,000 made by the Director to the Charity to support its Richard Grayson exhibition, to be repaid over time from general income or from sales of artworks at 0% interest.

Following a stock take we have reassessed the value of our stock held in artists' prints and editions which has increased to £67,132 from £37,000 in 2022/23.

Principal Funding Sources

The principal funding sources for the charity are currently by way of grant income from Arts Council England and the Stanley Picker Trust, supplemented by income from organisations working in partnership on commissions, sales of artworks, editions and books, room hires, studio lets, and donations from individuals.

Matt's Gallery received £156,207 towards its core revenue costs as an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation. A grant from the Stanley Picker Trust (£9,030) was received towards our traineeship programmes, and a final instalment payment of £3,977 was received from Art Fund towards our 'MattFlix' programme. Restricted individual donations were secured towards our Nina Davies exhibition (£8,000) and towards work on our archive (£1,000).

Matt's Gallery raised additional income through rental of studio space (£33,250), sales of artworks (£30,728), sales of artistic editions (£8,517 and sales of books (£3,430).

Fundraising Statement

Fundraising at Matt's Gallery is led by Deputy Director Tim Dixon. The gallery raises funds from individuals, trust and foundations and businesses. No fundraising-related complaints were received in the period. Matt's Gallery has not engaged any external partners or fundraising agencies to carry out fundraising on its behalf during this reporting period. The Gallery has created a fundraising committee to support the Deputy Director. We do not engage in fundraising activities that would place vulnerable people at risk.

Investment Policy

Aside from retaining a prudent amount in reserves each year most of the charity's funds are to be spent in the short term.

4 of 21

Matt's Gallery Limited Report of the Trustees Continued For the year ended 31 March 2024

Reserves

The Board of Trustees has examined the charity's requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. It has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity should represent the cost of winding down the business over three months, including overhead expenditure, noticed periods and redundancy pay. On our current operational model, we have calculated this amount to be £64,500.

Over 2023/24 the gallery set aside £4,000 into its reserves, which at 31st March 2023 stood at £43,000. In April 2024 the gallery moved its reserves into a higher interest account with an annual interest rate of 2.5%. The gallery has committed to setting aside £400 per month in the year 2024/25, while also earning approximately £100 per month in interest on the sum currently held. It expects to reach its target by October 2028. This target is reviewed annually in quarter 4.

Plans for Future Periods

With income secured from the Arts Council England until 31 March 2027 the charity's survival is not under threat. The charity plans to continue the activities outlined above in the forthcoming years, subject to satisfactory funding arrangements. Plans are being developed to work on a number of schemes with artists and educational organisations. Working from the gallery's new space in Nine Elms in South West London marks a new era for the gallery, as it establishes diversified operations in a new location.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 13 June 2016 and registered as a charity on 14 October 2016. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. In the event of the company being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 for each member.

5 of 21

Matt's Gallery Limited Report of the Trustees Continued For the year ended 31 March 2024

Recruitment and appointment of trustees

The directors of the company are also charity trustees for the purposes of charity law and under the company's Articles. Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association trustees are elected to serve for a period of 3 years after which they must be re-elected at a quarterly meeting of the Board of trustees.

All trustees, other than Gallery Director Robin Klassnik, give their time voluntarily and received no benefits from the charity. Klassnik's salary and any expenses reclaimed from the charity are set out in note 12 to the accounts.

Jes Fernie retired by rotation at the quarterly trustees meeting on 16 June 2024 and was re-elected to serve a second term.

The board of trustees seeks to ensure that the needs of artists and our local communities are appropriately reflected through the diversity of the trustee body. To enhance the potential pool of trustees, the charity regularly reviews its recruitment procedures in dialogue with the Arts Council England.

The more traditional business skills and arts expertise are well represented on the Board of Trustees. In an effort to maintain this broad skill mix, members of the Board of Trustees are requested to provide a list of their skills (and update it each year) and in the event of particular skills being lost due to retirements, individuals are approached to offer themselves for election to the Board of Trustees.

Trustee Induction and Training

Most trustees are already familiar with the practical work of the charity having been encouraged to take up the post.

Additionally, new trustees are invited and encouraged to attend a Quarterly Board Meeting to familiarise themselves with the charity and the context within which it operates. These are led by the Chair of the board of trustees and the Director.

New trustees are issued welcome information drawn from Charity Commission publications signposted through the Commissions publication 'The Essential Trustee' and guidance on public benefit, including the guidance 'public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'. This is distributed along with a copy of the Memorandum and Articles and the latest financial statements and outlines:

Risk Management

The Board of trustees is aware of the main risks to which the charity is exposed. Where appropriate, systems or procedures have been established to mitigate the risks the charity faces. Internal control risks are minimized by the implementation of procedures for authorisation of all transactions and projects. Procedures are in place to ensure compliance with health and safety of staff, volunteers, clients and visitors. The continuing implementation of the procedures ensure a consistent quality of delivery for all operational aspects of the charity. These procedures are periodically reviewed to ensure that they continue to meet the needs of the charity.

Organisational Structure

Matt's Gallery has a Board of Trustees who meet at least four times per year and are responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the charity. At present the Board has nine members from a variety of professional backgrounds relevant to the work of the charity.

A scheme of delegation is in place and day to day responsibility for the provision of the services rest with the Gallery Director along with the Deputy Director. The Gallery Director is responsible for ensuring that the charity delivers the services specified and that key performance indicators are met. The Deputy Director has responsibility for the day-to-day operational management of the Gallery, individual supervision of the staff team and also ensuring that the team continue to develop their skills and working practices in line with good practice.

Related Parties

In so far as it is complimentary to the charity's objects, the charity is guided by both local and national policy.

Responsibilities of the Board of Trustees

Company law requires the Board of Trustees to prepare financial statements each year which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charitable company as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including income and expenditure, for the financial year. In preparing those financial statements, the Board should follow best practice and:

The Board of Trustees is responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 1985.
