TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The Trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and “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).�
Structure, governance and management
Restore the Music UK (�RTM UK�) is a charitable incorporated organisation and was entered on the Register of Charities on 31 March 2017 and holds Charity number 1172363. The Constitution was effective from that date. It is e�empt from ta�ation.
The Trustees who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were: Ms D M Gandola Mr GM Singer Ms SJ Rajani
Trustees are appointed through a process of recommendation and interview. In good time before a Trustee is due to step down suggestions for a replacement are made and possible candidates are approached. Shortlisted candidates are then interviewed by a trustee and the C��, who make a recommendation to the other Trustees. The overriding aim is to ensure that trustees have a skillset well suited to the diverse activities covered by our grant giving.
The Trustees are fully aware of their responsibilities under charity law as disclosed within the Charity Governance Code. The Charity Governance Code will be made available to new Trustees.
The C��, Polly Moore, has hands on day-to-day responsibility for all aspects of the Charity's growth, performance, strategy and delivery. This includes, but is not limited to, presenting to Trustees, financial overview, marketing and brand awareness opportunities, major donor relations, management of digital platforms and all communication and fundraising campaigns. The C�� is responsible for the management of the grant programme - including relationships with past, present and future grantees, and building programme forecasts on a rolling 3 year view.
Additionally, all events, from conceptual stage to post-delivery, are designed, managed and delivered by Polly Moore. These include the Steinway Masterclass, �attle of the �ands, film production on location, Teachers' Celebration Dinner and all fundraising events including the annual Gala Fundraiser.
Trustees are also regularly updated on all aspects of the charity�s progress through emails and Trustee approval is always sought by email for any e�penditure over �2,000.
The aim of the Charity is to keep all administrative costs as low as possible and ensure that any e�penditure is at all times valid, necessary and value adding with a focus on the core raison d�etre of the programme.
Objectives and activities
Under the Constitution, the Trustees are empowered to use all or any of the capital for the provision of financial assistance to state primary and secondary schools in the UK in the sole regard of (re)building their music departments.
�perations of the Charity are governed by the Trustees. The secretary of the Trust is Polly Moore.
The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the trust should undertake.
RTM UK is a low overhead and high impact charity that is changing the shape of music provision in state schools

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
and specifically those in areas of high socio-economic deprivation. The founding vision of the Charity is to deliver transformative opportunities and multiple pathways to all young people and with it the benefits of social cohesion and mobility that a levelling up in music education can deliver. The RTM UK Capital Grant Programme now has a funding footprint of �1.3 million across 26 London boroughs with the capacity to reach over 70,000 young people.
Public benefit
The purpose of RTM UK is raising money to rebuild school music departments in heavily deprived areas � make music accessible � available to all young people throughout their education. The RTM UK Capital Grant Programme addresses the hole created by austerity � funding cuts in state education, reestablishing music as a core subject priority in all schools and helping to facilitate social cohesion and mobility.
RTM UK funding is delivered directly to state schools via the School Grant Programme. This programme allocates Capital Grant Awards of �10,000 to �20,000 to schools of above average Free School Meals and Pupil Premium. The RTM vision is to enable access to music for all students - a vital resource as both a universal language but also the gateway to new opportunities, unlocking hidden talents and the building of cultural capital. Students are encouraged to take instruments home and to support their peers in ensembles both in and out of the classroom. Impact ranges from developing confidence, aspiration, and positive attitude to a greater understanding � acceptance of diversity within our global culture.
RTM UK works with local music partners to identify schools best placed to optimise the funding and deliver ma�imum impact.
A school's eligibility is initially determined by the level of Free School Meals and Pupil Premium but will also look at levels of mobility and �nglish as an Additional Language. In the grant application, schools are required to demonstrate a clear and sustainable musical strategy for delivering ma�imum benefit to the students over a 3 year period. Grant awards are ma�imum �10,000 for primary schools and �20,000 for secondaries and applications must include an itemised breakdown of proposed e�penditure. This programme is vital in areas where the cost of access to a music education are prohibitively high for most parents and the benefits of music are therefore not available or offered to most students. �ecoming a grantee enables a school to build up the cultural capital of their students as well as offering a hugely valuable resource for mental wellbeing - a need more desperate than ever following the pandemic. Grant applications are approved by the RTM UK �oard of Trustees and Grantees are e�pected to participate in RTM UK events and showcase their students and new facilities.
�very RTM UK Grantee school is legally obliged to submit an annual Progress report which details all aspects of the impact of the funding. Typically this will include details of musical performances, quantitative data on students participating in ensemble groups, uptake of instrumental learning � e�am board results. This is reviewed alongside the original grant application to ensure adherence to approved vision and strategy and a commitment to sustainable music provision.
The Charity�s income is devoted almost entirely to scholarships and grants.
The Charity�s offer is publicised widely through social media, the Charity�s website, relations with local MPs, music industry participants and by word of mouth.
Applications are made from all over the UK but largely from London. Applicants are required to say what benefit a grant will bring to their school and its students as well as to lay out precisely the purchasing strategy with accompanying description of intended outcomes.
The trustees have given due consideration to the Charity Commission�s published guidance on the Public �enefit requirement under the Charities Act 2011.
Grant making policy
RTM UK is committed to delivering the founding vision of the Charity by enabling access to music provision for every child. The policy of the School Music Grant Programme is to invest in schools who clearly demonstrate a
Page 3
RESTORE THE MUSIC UK
TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
determination to deliver this vision and support the need for music to be made freely available within the school environment. The procedure for making grant awards is through a robust application process with all recommended submissions presented by the C�� to the �oard of Trustees.
There is a formal funding agreement in place for all approved grant awards and RTM UK demands integrity and transparency from all recipients of its grants. It is vital that all activities funded by RTM UK are carried out to the highest and most ethical standards and reflect the principles of diversity, equality and inclusion fundamental to the demographic which RTM aims to support.
This Funding Round process takes place twice a year and aims to allocate all charity income outside of operating costs and the reserve pot (see below) so no income is carried forward in to the ne�t financial year.
Achievements and performance
The overall policy of the Charity is to fund the provision of musical instruments and tuition for every child in state primary and secondary education.
Grant awards were made to 16 schools for the year ended 31 March 2022. Details are contained in Note 6 to the accounts.
Grantees are encouraged to participate in various RTM UK events during the course of the year and in 2021�22 these included a (match) fundraising campaign �ig Give Christmas Challenge 2021 and the Gala Fundraiser Dinner held in �ctober 2021, attended by RTM UK Donors.
In addition to the grant awards made, the Charity confounded all e�pectations by largely managing to uphold and deliver against all set objectives during a second unprecedented year beset by Covid related challenges and obstacles.
-
July 2021 Funding Round: Grant awards totalling �160,000 allocated to 9 primary and secondary schools across London (enabling access to music for over 8,500 young people by funding new resources for their school music departments)
-
September 2021: Steinway Sale: contribution of content for the purpose of creating an online advertorial to promote the sale and thank Steinway for selecting RTM UK as their beneficiary.
-
�ctober 2021: Gala Fundraiser Dinner for 170 guests
-
December 2021: participation in �ig Give Christmas Challenge, a major online fundraising campaign. Raised total of �64,743. (To be awarded in school grants in upcoming funding round in March 2022)
-
March 2022 Funding Round: Grant awards totalling �110,000 allocated to 7 primary � secondary schools across London, offering access to music for 6,500� students.
Fundraising
RTM UK carries out a program of fundraising events over the course of the year in order to generate income for the RTM Capital Grant Programme. RTM UK does not employ e�ternal agencies to carry out professional fundraising on its behalf.
Following the implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) 2018 and the UK GDPR (January 2021), RTM UK relies on consent for all its marketing activities. In line with our Data Protection Policy, the charity does not sell and has not given data to third parties without e�press permission. Access to the RTM UK database by staff and volunteers is strictly controlled with varying access levels only with the approval of the C��.
Any complaints received during the year are recorded. There were no complaints received in the year.
RTM UK�s income for the 12 months covered by this report was �536,764, appro�imately 40� higher than the previous year due to the staging of the Gala Fundraiser post-Covid in �ctober 2021 followed by the �ig Give Christmas Challenge in December 2021.
In person fundraising events are a large source of income for the charity, in part because the donors relish the
Page 4
RESTORE THE MUSIC UK
TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
opportunity to watch the grantee students perform which in turn inspires generous donations.
The 2 main events are the Annual Gala Dinner and the �ig Give Christmas Challenge, both of which are raising donations from private individuals.
Going forward the charity will be concerned to increase the proportion of core funding streams versus fundraising events in order to protect against pandemic type cancellation scenarios and the reliance on this income.
Pay Policy
The key management personnel of the charity comprise the �oard of Trustees and the C�� and they are responsible for directing, controlling, running and operating the charity on a day-to-day basis. All Trustees give their time freely and no trustee remuneration was paid during the year. Details of Trustee e�penses and related party transactions are disclosed in notes 11 and 21.
The remuneration of Senior Management (C��) is subject to review and approval by the �oard of Trustees. The package, which comprises a salary and small, capped bonus element based on meeting fundraising targets, is designed to ensure the selection and retention of high-quality leaders. It also ensures that RTM donors, supporters, volunteers, beneficiaries and the public recogni�e the importance we place on accountability in all aspects of our work, including the determination of pay and benefits of the senior management.
All employee salaries are reviewed annually, and affordability, economic trends and e�ternal pay movement is taken in to account.
Risk management
The Trustees recognise that although the Charity generally operates in a low risk environment, it does face operational and financial risks. �very effort is made to put in place controls and procedures that are designed to mitigate identified risks. These address the following:
-
The sustainability of incoming funds and in particular unrestricted funds
-
The allocation of restricted funds
-
Financial controls and approval of e�penditure
The cancellation or postponement of events and other fundraising partnerships is a key risk for the charity. In addition, particular attention was paid to the charity�s ability to reach its beneficiaries through a variety of virtual�online events and more attention paid to the donor facing comms strategy going forward � specifically with regard to updating on latest Charity initiatives and calls to action.
Detailed financial forecasting and 3 year forward modeling takes place monthly but key assumptions are continually assessed and revised. These financials come under monthly review by management and are presented to the Trustees bi-monthly for review, with a formal �nd �f �ear review on completion of the Independent ��aminer�s Report.
The Charity�s bank accounts are all held with NatWest �ank and are managed by C��, Polly Moore.
Financial review
Income for the year was a grant award totaling �200,000 ( 2021: £200,000 ) from The Gordon and Jenny Singer Foundation (for the purpose of school grants and administrative costs of the charity) and �336,764 ( 2021: £119,071 ) from various other donors.
�270,000 ( 2021: £163,336 ) was spent on grant awards to 16 London state schools. Support costs totalled �128,466 ( 2021: £118,549 ) and costs incurred on raising funds totalled �92,499 ( 2021: £10,334 ). Net income for the year was �45,799 ( 2021: £26,852 ).

To the fullest e�tent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity, the Charity�s members as a body and the Charity�s Trustees as a body for my independent e�aminer�s work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.
Responsibilities and basis of report

-
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 e�amination.

RESTORE THE MUSIC UK
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
1. General information
Restore the Music UK is a Charitable Incorporated �rganisation registered in �ngland and Wales (Charity number: 1172363 and Company number: C�009796). The address of its registered office is 6th Floor, Park House, 116 Park Street, London, W1K 6AF.
2. Accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities S�RP (FRS 102) - 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 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
Restore the Music UK 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.
2.2 Going concern
The Trustees and management have been monitoring the potential impact of Covid-19 on its activities. The Trustees believe that the Charity�s financial resources are sufficient to ensure the ability of the Charity to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future and that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity's ability to continue, being at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements and therefore have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.
The Charity has full funding in place for the year ahead which will allow for both the objective of the Charity (funding the provision of music to school-going young people) as well as covering the costs of delivering the programme. Should a repeat of the Covid style shutdown scenario occur, this will enable the charity to maintain its core objective and delivery at the same level as the crisis year of 2019�20.
2.3 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 receivable can be measured reliably.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the Charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is e�pected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.
Grants are included in the Statement of financial activities on a receivable basis. The balance of income received for specific purposes but not e�pended during the period is shown in the relevant funds on the �alance sheet. Where income is received in advance of entitlement of receipt, its recognition is deferred and included in creditors as deferred income. Where entitlement occurs before income is received, the income is accrued.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. �ther donations are recognised once the Charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income ta� recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.3 Income (continued)
2.4 Expenditure
��penditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. ��penditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
��penditure on raising funds includes all e�penditure incurred by the Charity to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events.
��penditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
Grants payable are debited to the Statement of Financial Activities when an undertaking to pay the grant during the financial year has been entered into.
All e�penditure is inclusive of irrecoverable �AT.
2.� Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fi�ed assets costing �100 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
At each reporting date the Charity assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication e�ists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined to be the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount e�ceeds the recoverable amount.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fi�ed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
Computer equipment - 33�

2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.� Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the �alance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
2.� Financial instruments
The Charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. �asic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.
2.10 Finance leases and hire purchase
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts and finance leases are capitalised as tangible fi�ed assets. Assets acquired by finance lease are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Assets acquired by hire purchase are depreciated over their useful lives. Finance leases are those where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership are assumed by the Charity. �bligations under such agreements are included in creditors, net of the finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance element of the rental payment is charged to the Statement of financial activities so as to produce a constant periodic rate of charge on the net obligation outstanding in each period.
2.11 Pensions
The Charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the Charity to the fund in respect of the year.
2.12 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
3. Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement
�stimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical e�perience and other factors, including e�pectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
Recognition of income from grants requires judgement. See note 2.3 for the accounting policy for grant income.
Depreciation is estimated at the rates detailed in note 2.5, the carrying amount of assets is detailed in note 12.
