## **Spinning Wheel Ltd** 

Company Registration Number - 07841365 

## **Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 30 November 2021** 

## **Objects and activities of the charity** 

## _**The purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document**_ 

To advance education in the arts, in particular the art of drama by the organisation and production of touring plays and activities in rurally isolated communities in East Anglia and the surrounding area for in particular, but not exclusively, young people between the ages of 5 and 25. 

## _**The main activities undertaken in relation to those purposes during the year**_ 

As the effects of COVID-19 continued to take it’s toll on the arts industry, the organisations activity was curtailed during the early part of the financial year. 

During this time, the organisation undertook a second consultancy with the Marina Theatre to investigate the opportunities for the outreach department in a post-Covid environment. 

As a result of this consultancy, the organisation was invited to deliver the Marina Theatre’s outreach programme in the roll of Company in Residence, and so has been focussing it’s engagement work in this region of East Suffolk during this financial year. 

Plans were developed to mount a covid-secure tour of The Velveteen Rabbit in spring 2021, but we made a decision during the winter lockdown to postpone these plans due to the continuing rise in covid infections and unpredictability for the industry at that time.  Any funders for that tour kindly agreed to allow funding to be postponed for a tour at a later date. 

In the autumn of 2021, the first Colab:East project was delivered, working with 8 East Anglian based emerging creatives to develop a new piece called ‘The Marina Monster’ for children and families, provide opportunities to develop new collaborative networks for the participants, and offer career development workshops from industry experts.  This project was funded by Arts Council England and delivered in partnership with the Marina Theatre in Lowestoft. 

## _**The main activities undertaken during the year to further the charity's purpose for the public benefit**_ 

Spinning Wheel Theatre delivered the CoLab:East project in partnership with the Marina Theatre in Lowestoft in autumn 2021. The project brought together 8 early career theatre creatives with the brief to create a family show for a non-traditional theatre space in Lowestoft. The CoLab:East cohort created a piece called The Marina Monster, which performed 3 times over the weekend at the Marina Theatre in their upstairs studio space, converting it into an immersive underwater space. As part of CoLab:East’s creative professional development programme, the cohort also attended 3 weekends of workshops exploring the devising and R&D process, and attended seminars and workshops from a range of industry specialists. 

As part of our Company in Residence relationship with the Marina Theatre, delivering the organisations outreach offer, we have launched two weekly Youth Theatre classes for 8-12 and 13-15 year olds, a weekly group for people aged 60+ called Next Stagers exploring performance and theatre making techniques, a Choir and a Ukulele Orchestra. We have also delivered two-week Summer School for children aged 13-21, working towards a full-scale production on the Marina stage, and providing free lunch for participants each day to alleviate food poverty pressures during the Summer. Alongside this work, we have also delivered a playwriting project for participants aged 60+ who each created a short radio play. These were performed by professional actors and recorded, edited and will be broadcast on BBC Radio Suffolk and Norfolk in spring 2022.

## **Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 30 November 2021** 

## _**Achievements and performance**_ 

The CoLab:East project participants saw a significant improvement in their mental health as a result of participating. This includes a 61% improvement in feeling good about themselves, 63% improvement in their confidence, 73% improvement in how useful they feel, and 48% improvement in how close they feel to others.  100% of participants ended the project feeling able to make up their own mind about things, feeling cheerful and optimistic about their future often or all of the time. 

## WHAT THE PARTICIPANTS SAID: 

_“I really enjoyed the collaboration process; it was one of the most effective and balanced devised pieces I have been involved in. It felt unique as a truly shared project, with each person being able to choose their involvement in each discipline and decision.”_ 

_“CoLab:East helped me gain new skills; especially in areas which feel unapproachable or mysterious within theatre such as funding and relationship building. These topics can often be overwhelming”_ 

_“I plan to stay in touch with the group and follow what they do next. I would love us to collaborate again in the future, and I feel like I have so many new connections to draw on._ 

_“My creative network has immediately expanded having taken part in CoLab:East and meeting the cohort, guest speakers and growing my knowledge of Suffolk creatives. I feel I have a stronger image of all that is available in the county, from individuals to organisations and events.”_ 

_“This project has been completely joyful and invigorating. The whole experience was rewarding and left me feeling renewed. This type of opportunity is so important and so helpful to early-career artists in feeling valued and welcomed within the industry. Thank you!”_ 

## WHAT THE AUDIENCE SAID: 

_“Wow!!! What an amazing family experience watching The Marina Monster. Our children absolutely loved this and I was in stitches too!!! We are foster carers so for one of our children it was their first ever experience of theatre and he was in his element and can't stop talking about the characters and how much fun he had. Best fun we've had in a long time! We will definitely be following on social media for any future family performances. Thanks again.”_ 

Having delivered 6 months of outreach activity at the Marina Theatre since reopening after covid-19, we have seen a steady increase in participants as people feel more confident to engage in activities. 

We have been able to gather really positive feedback from participants, and undertaken wellbeing evaluation using the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Wellbring Scale. 

## FEEDBACK FROM YOUNG PEOPLE: 

_“I've enjoyed speaking to new people and gaining confidence.”_ 

_“You meet new people and be able to expand your mind.”_ 

_“I feel really safe here.”_ 

_“I like working with different people and coming up with new ideas, and learnt techniques for acting and on the stage.”_

_“I’ve enjoyed meeting with like minded people and enjoying the banter. Feeling motivated by learning a new instrument_ 

_“I’ve enjoyed the social aspect of being with a lovely group of people” “Enjoyed new songs, people, conversations”_ 

_“Music makes me feel good.”_

What a delight and a great way for us to experience our first outing back at the theatre, well done!”_ – audience member 

_“Attended the 2pm Sunday performance with our grandchildren. We all really enjoyed it. Well done to all the cast, and look forward to more from these talented young people.”_ – audience member 

_“My daughter has absolutely loved this last 2 weeks of Summer School and can't wait to join the Youth Theatre group. She's always loved performing but only ever knew dancing on stage and lockdown was so so hard for her. She really struggled and walked away from dancing which I was devastated about as she was so unhappy after lockdown but since she's been doing this I've finally got her back. It's been lovely to see her come out of her shell again”_ – parent of participant

## **Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 30 November 2021** 

## **Statement of  the Directors' and Trustees' Responsibilities** 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2011 and the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Notwithstanding the explicit requirement in the extant statutory regulations, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the SORP 2005, in view of the fact that the SORP 2005 has been withdrawn, the Trustees determined to interpret this responsibility as requiring them to follow current best practice and prepare the accounts according to the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in February 2016), (The SORP). 

In particular, the Companies Act 2006 and charity law require the Board of Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the Board is required to :- 

- prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). 

- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

The law requires that the trustees must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the surplus or deficit of the charity for the year. 

The Trustees are also responsible for maintaining adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006 and comply with regulations made under the Charities Act. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The Trustees are also responsible for the contents of the Trustees' report, and the statutory responsibility of the Independent Examiner in relation to the Trustees' report is limited to examining the report and ensuring that , on the face of the report, there are no material inconsistencies with the figures disclosed in the financial statements. 

## **Method of preparation of accounts - Small company provisions** 

The financial statements are set out on pages 9 to 20. 

The financial statements have been prepared implementing the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in February 2016), (The SORP), and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016). 

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions in Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. 

his report was approved by the board of trustees on 26th August 2022.

## **Independent examiner's report to the directors of Spinning Wheel Ltd** 

I report on the financial statements for the year ended 30 November 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and the related notes. 

## **Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and the Independent Examiner and the basis of the report** 

The charity's trustees (who are also directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts.  The charity's directors consider that an audit is not required for this year (under Section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act)) and that the financial statements are subject to an independent examination. 

Having satisfied myself that the financial statements are not required to be audited under any legal provision, or otherwise, and are eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:- 

- a) examine the financial statements of the charity under Section 145 of the Act; 

- b) follow the applicable procedures in the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement and scope of work undertaken** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charities Commission.  An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented within 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 an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts and my report is limited to the matters set out in the statements below. 

## **Independent Examiner's Statement, Report and Opinion** 

Subject to the limitations upon the scope of my work as detailed above, I have completed my examination: and can confirm that:- 

The accounts of this charitable company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006; This is a report in respect of an examination carried out under 145 of the Act  and in accordance with Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act which may be applicable; 

and 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 charity as required by Section 386 of the Companies Act 2006 and Section 130 of The Charities Act 2011; 

- the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

- the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 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; 

- have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles set out in the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  (The SORP). 

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 financial statements to be reached.

## **Spinning Wheel Ltd** 

## **Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 30 November 2021** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Basis of preparation and accounting convention** 

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) and the Companies Act 2006. 

Spinning Wheel Ltd meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.  Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy. 

## **Going Concern** 

There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income can be measured reliably. 

## **Recognition of liabilities and expenditure** 

Expenditure, is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred.  Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates. 

## _**Tangible fixed assets**_ 

Tangible fixed assets are initially recorded at cost, with the exception of those valued at £250 or less.  These are expensed through the Statement of Financial Activities. 

Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets to their anticipated residual value over their estimated useful lives. 

Plant and machinery 

20 % straight line basis 

## **Debtors** 

Debtors are measured at their recoverable amounts at the balance sheet date. 

## **Creditors and provisions** 

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably.  Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## **Fund Accounting** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the Trustees for particular purposes. 

Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor. 

## **2 Liability to taxation** 

The Trustees consider that the charity satisfies the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by chapter 3 part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively on the specific charitable objects of the charity and for no other purpose. Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the charity, and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities.
