Structure, governance and management
The CIO is a registered charity, number 1172491, with the registration dated 7 April 2017.
York Music Hub is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (“CIO”) governed by a constitution registered with the Charity Commission on 7 April 2017.

In accordance with the constitution, Trustees may be appointed for an unlimited period of time and appointments are approved by the incumbent Trustees by way of a majority decision.
The Board of Trustees meets 4 times a year and is responsible for meeting the aims and objectives, ongoing viability, strategic development and legal obligations of the charity. The Board of Trustees holds overall responsibility for the charity's continued success; it is vital that its Trustees have the necessary skills and knowledge to enable them to carry out this function.
The Board of Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.
Reference and administrative details

Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2021
Achievements and performance
All of us at York Music Hub were deeply saddened to learn of the death of our former Chair, Patrick Scott, shortly before Easter 2021. An incredible advocate for the arts, Patrick worked tirelessly to improve the lives of children and young people throughout his distinguished career. In retirement, he was instrumental in founding York Music Hub, and improving access to music for all children in York. There is no doubt that his extraordinary legacy will live on through the work of the Hub, which will benefit countless young people in the years to come.
The year to March 2021 has been a challenging one due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. National lockdowns, school closures, and the restrictions on live events have all impacted the Hub’s ability to deliver services for children and young people across York. Despite these considerable challenges, the Hub and its partners have continued to provide musical activities, particularly through successfully pivoting to an online model of delivery for many projects and lessons. Some successes of the last year include:
-
Online lessons and ensembles continued via the Hub’s main delivery partner, York Arts Education, as part of an online York Music Centre
-
The Hub established an online Zoom Choir, reaching pupils from over 20 schools, and producing virtual performances
-
‘Singing for All’ sessions continued via the Hub’s YouTube channel, engaging with over 2000 people throughout the year
-
Overall engagement with the Whole Class Ensemble Tuition programme has increased, with more children now learning instruments than in the previous year
-
The Music4U programme continued, with online activities in Danesgate Community School, Applefields Special School and Music4U holiday courses, all reaching children who face barriers to musical learning
-
The Hub’s bursary scheme supported 50+ pupils from low income families to access specialist tuition with a Hub Approved Tutor, with many delivering lessons online throughout school closures
-
The Merchant Taylors’ Award Scheme supported 5 advanced pupils to accelerate their musical progression, with all pupils reporting considerable progress despite the challenging circumstances of the last year. The Hub also secured increased funding for 2 additional awards in future years
-
The Hub has continued to support a variety of partners and providers via the Commissioning Fund. This has included online composition classes, online ukulele sessions, online singing sessions, holiday courses, Rockgod Academy courses, and primary to secondary transition support
-
The Hub supported schools via regular online network meetings, and lead on the dissemination of up-to-date guidance regarding the safe delivery of music activities across York in all settings
-
The Hub provided access to a variety of Continued Professional Development activities for music teachers and tutors
-
The Hub supported schools’ music curriculum development, providing access to Charanga for schools where a specific need exists or where low engagement has been reported in previous years

York Music Hub CIO
Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2021
-
The Hub re-established its newsletter in November 2020, circulating news from the Hub, schools and partners to a mailing list of 600+ on a monthly basis
-
The Hub worked with York Guildhall Orchestra to establish a series of online masterclasses, with internationally renowned performers/teachers delivering lessons to York pupils
-
The Hub is actively involved in the Local Cultural Education Partnership (REACH) as a member of the LCEP steering group. The partnership has delivered cultural activities and opportunities for the city’s young people, including Bags of Creativity which have been provided to children in receipt of Free School Meals in York schools
-
The Hub delivered its first Winter Festival (online) during December 2020. The festival featured 300+ young people across 15 recorded performances, as well as a performance by the Hub’s patron Ian Bousfield
-
The Hub has engaged with a range of partners to deliver offers to schools, including National Centre for Early Music (Music4U; Gesualdo6; Gabrieli Roar), Royal Opera House (Create & Sing), Orchestra for All (Modulo), Yorkshire Young Musicians, York Minster, University of York (MEG; Outreach), York St. John (Co-Create Festival; RLWC Anthem for York) , Chapter House Youth Choir, Brass Bands England, Yorchestra, Yorkshire Performing Arts and York Arts Education
The Hub was not able to deliver some live events, including HubFest, Best of the Bands, and Choral Festival, owing to the ongoing uncertainties of the pandemic and restrictions on live performances. It is hoped that these events can be reinstated in future. The Hub also regularly reviewed its 20/21 budget in light of a lack of income from live events, and some activities had to be postponed/cancelled where these were no longer financially viable within the adjusted budget.
The Hub has responded well to previous feedback from Arts Council England around the need to increase school engagement with core roles, and future reporting is expected to meet the Hub’s targets in these areas. We are also happy to report positive feedback from ACE recognising improvements made on several KPIs, ‘including the proportion of schools engaged in core roles; proportion of schools supported with Singing Strategies; and delivery of whole class ensemble tuition.’ The Hub continues to monitor areas for improvement, and updates progression on a quarterly updated action plan.
The Hub has also fully engaged with a consultancy report (produced by AP Benson, and commissioned by ACE) around its current operating model. Several recommendations have already been implemented, including increasing the Hub’s management capacity to full time, and the Board will continue to consider how the Hub can best meet the needs of the City’s children and young people.
Plans for the future
Many of the Hub’s more ambitious plans for 2020/21 have had to be cancelled due to the pandemic. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the pandemic throughout 20/21, the Hub’s initial business plan was replaced by quarterly Business Stabilisation Plans, in order to remain agile and respond to the fluidity of the ongoing public health situation. This has helped the Hub to respond to challenges quickly, and to meet the needs of young people more effectively.
The Hub will continue to employ quarterly Business Stabilisation Plans, including an updated Activity Plan, for future planning purposes. Demand for musical activities throughout the summer term has been high (including a successful new Summer School commissioned by the Hub from York Arts Education). It is anticipated that a return to live events will be possible from September 2021, albeit with some restrictions still in place. The Hub has particularly focused on its Singing Strategy, and projects including the Rugby League World Cup ‘Power of Together’ (in partnership with York St.John) and the Gabrieli Consort’s ‘Re-Creation’ project at York Minster (in partnership with NCEM) are planned for Autumn 2021.

York Music Hub CIO
Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2021
The pandemic has also had a negative impact on the Hub’s ability to raise additional income through fundraising, particularly from live activities/sponsorship/ticket sales. The Hub has set a modest fundraising budget for 21/22, recognising that the charitable giving landscape remains challenging, and that demand for funding from donors is high. The Hub hopes that reinstating flagship events including Hubfest, Choral Festival and Best of Bands in 2022 will help to attract additional funding.
Financial review
The 2019 – 2020 financial year allowed us to generate a strong operating surplus in order to increase the financial resilience of the organisation, unrestricted free reserves at the start of the year were £23,208. In the current environment a result ahead of breakeven was always likely to be a challenge, our events and fundraising activity was significantly curtailed and the fundraising environment became more challenging. We are therefore delighted to report an overall surplus of the year of £3,419 of which £2,145 was unrestricted.
The Hub is primarily funded by the grant from Arts Council England but part of the role of The Hub is to generate additional funds either from voluntary income or from earned income opportunities, During the year we were once again supported by The Merchant Taylors who fund bursary work and by Music 4 U.
As at 31 March 2021 The Hub had unrestricted funds of £25,387 all of which was free reserves.
The Trustees would like to thank all of our supporters, volunteers and staff for all they have done for The Hub in the year under review. This has been a difficult year where we have had to adapt provision rapidly and also respond to changes internally, in light of the environment the financial performance has been strong.
Policy on Reserves
The Hub is still a young organisation with the ambition to continue to grow and develop so that we can continue to meet the needs of our young people, there is a fine balance between the need to build reserves to ensure the financial security of The Hub and the need to meet our charitable objectives as effectively as we are able. 2019 – 2020 gave us a one off opportunity to build our reserves and give The Hub more financial security. Given the current situation we are pleasantly surprised that the 2020 – 2021 result generated a small surplus on unrestricted funds.
The Trustees believe that the current level of reserves is sufficient, care has been taken to avoid long term commitments beyond the end of each year’s ACE grant which ensures that committed expenditure remains affordable. The Hub is predominantly a commissioning organisation and has a responsibility to ensure that grant funding is spent on the purposes for which it is intended.
Risk management
The Board has paid particular attention to a range of risks faced by the charity and has implemented measures to reduce or mitigate these risks. The main risks identified by the Board are listed in the Business Plan for 2020/21 and include:
-
Schools reluctant to engage with the Hub;
-
Failure to attract sponsorship and raise additional funding outside the ACE core grant;
-
Insufficient managerial and administrative capacity;
-
Reluctance of teachers and tutors to engage with CPD.
A full Programme of Activity is updated and monitored as part of quarterly reporting to ACE, which includes risks identified for each of the Hub’s activities as well as any mitigating measures.

York Music Hub CIO
Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2021
The Hub has also continued to update a quarterly Action Plan to address risks identified in previous ACE feedback, namely school engagement with core roles, and engagement with Schools Music Education Plans. Action Plans are monitored by the board on an ongoing basis, as well as by the Hub’s ACE relationship manager.
Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and UK Accounting Standards (UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
Make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provision of the trust deed. 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.
Declaration
The Trustees approved the Trustees’ Report and financial statements on 4 November 2021 and signed on its behalf:

Independent Examiner’s Statement

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.

York Music Hub CIO
Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2021
1. Accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
CIO information
York Music Hub CIO was registered as a charitable incorporated organisation on 7 April 2017 and registered with the Charity Commission under charity number 1172491. The charity’s principal office address is Triune Court, Monks Cross Drive, York, YO32 9GZ.
Accounting convention
The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (“Charities SORP (FRS102)”), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2019.
Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair view’. This departure has involved following Charities SORP (FRS 102) rather than Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
York Music Hub CIO meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
Going Concern
At the time of approving the financial statements the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the CIO has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
Despite the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the CIO’s ability to run events and raise additional funds in the short term on the basis of the cash reserves and security of funding from Arts Council England, the Trustees are confident that the charity has the ability to meet its liabilities as they fall due. The Trustees therefore believe it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.
Income
Income in the Statement of Financial Activities (“SOFA”) is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attaching to the item(s) have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from government grants is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and not deferred.
Expenditure
Expenditure is included in the SOFA on an accruals basis.
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include administration, finance, human resources, information systems and governance costs which support the services providing care to child victims and families.

York Music Hub CIO
Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2021
Fund accounting
Funds held by the CIO are either:
Unrestricted funds – these funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objects at the discretion of the Trustees.
Restricted funds – these funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the Charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Financial instruments
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Cash at bank and in hand Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity held for working capital. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowing in current liabilities.
Debtors
Prepayments and accrued income represent time apportioned expenses or income to be recognised in a future accounting period.
Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting end date.
Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected. The impairment loss is recognised in the income and expenditure account.
Creditors, loans and provisions
Creditors, loans and provisions are recognised where the society 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, loans and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
Financial liabilities are derecognised when, and only when, obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire.
Amounts recognised as provisions are best estimates of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting end date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.
Staff costs
The costs of short term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense where settlement of obligations does not fall within the same period.
Pension Costs
The charity operates a defined contribution scheme for the employees of the Charity. Contributions are charged as an expense to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period in which they fall due.
11
York Music Hub CIO
Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2021
Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised, if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
There are no estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities.
2. Taxation
The CIO is a registered charity and as such is a charity within the meaning of schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010. Accordingly, the charity is entitled to tax exemption under part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 in respect of income and gains arising.
