ACCESS ALL AREAS TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The Trustees submit their annual report and the financial statements of Access All Areas for the year ended 31 March 2022. The Trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” (FRS 102) in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.
Objectives and Activities
In setting our Objectives and Activities the Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit.
The Trustees sum up Access All Areas' charitable purposes, as defined in our Constitution, as:
For the public benefit to advance the education of people with learning disabilities and of the general public about the lives of people with learning disabilities in particular, but not exclusively, through the promotion of the arts of drama, performing arts and related activities, and by working with people with learning disabilities to develop their life skills, improve their quality of life and enlighten audiences.
Achievements of 2021-22
As we emerged from the pandemic, Access All Areas have bounced back
Our work continues to be singular in providing employment and leadership development opportunities for learning disabled and autistic creatives, and in shifting the sector to become a more accessible and inclusive place to work.
This year, we opened 2 productions, ran 72 live performances, reached 1,295 live audiences and 17,734 digital audiences, trained 3,571 arts and media staff, created 7 training films for Health Education England, generated 897 days of work for 21 learning disabled or autistic artists, engaged 250 learning disabled or autistic participants, trained 15 learning disabled or autistic students, reached 872,000 people through press and social media, and ran 1,637 workshops.

ACCESS ALL AREAS TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
Productions:
This included our coproduction of “unReal City” with dreamthinkspeak, a work-in-progress 1:1 virtual reality experience where audiences explored neurodivergent life online, and what connection means in an increasingly digital world. After being cancelled in March 2020 by the pandemic, the production ran at Brighton Dome for 3 weeks in early 2022.
We also developed and produced “The Interrogation”, co-written by AAA Associate Artist Charlene Salter and playwright Shaun Dunne. This was an outdoor interactive audio production, where audiences were led to question the ableism of language, the causes of criminality, and the feeling of being judged on the street as a learning disabled person. Funded by Arts Council England, “The Interrogation” toured to Canterbury, Salford, Battersea, Hackney, Bristol and Greenwich.
Artist Development:
In between productions, we continued our Artist Development programme, running weekly online workshops and in-person masterclasses with our Associate Artists. These workshops focused on professional skills development, development of new ideas, developing skills to stay well in work, and supporting artists into paid employment both within AAA and with external companies, leading to 897 days of paid work.
Diploma:
After cementing our partnership with Sky Studios on our Performance Making Diploma in previous years, this year we launched our most competitive and most diverse recruitment drive for new students. We recruited 15 new students from across the UK to our 2 year course, which launched in September 2021 in partnership with the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama.
Students undergo intensive training in devising, acting for stage, acting for camera, voice, movement, script writing, script work, audition techniques, TV pitch development, live art, and professional development. All of this will be run using Access All Areas’ unique 1:1 accessible methodologies, where students are empowered to identify access obstacles to securing work in the arts, and outline access plans to ensure they are not blocked from future work.
5
ACCESS ALL AREAS TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The course will culminate in a series of pitches of TV ideas to Sky Studios executives, developed with creatives from Sky, and in a festival of performance as part of our Exit Festival.
Transforming Leadership:
We concluded the first round of our Arts Council funded Transforming Leadership programme, a partnership with Disability Arts Online that trained and mentored 9 learning disabled and autistic creatives as arts leaders. This programme is revolutionising how we and the industry think about arts leadership, and has created a model of co-leadership and inclusive practice that will have a legacy of creating employment and leadership roles for learning disabled and autistic creatives.
Alongside a programme of coaching, mentoring, creative placements, and 1:1 support, we also shared learning across the industry. We held 2 seminars in inclusive leadership, attended by over 400 people, which has already led to a legacy programme of further leadership development across the industry.
Shifting the sector:
We continued to expand our Consultancy programme, run in partnership with Netflix, to shift the creative industries towards inclusion and access for learning disabled and autistic creatives. We trained 3,571 staff, leading to a greater awareness across the industry of neurodivergent access and inclusion. Most notably, we partnered with Netflix and Forty Foot Pictures to support the lead actor in “I Used To Be Famous”, which ran at the number 2 spot in Netflix UK for several weeks. We also supported script development, rehearsals, and filming for ITV’s Ralph and Katie, supporting two actors with down syndrome in lead roles in a groundbreaking TV production. As well as these high profile productions, we worked with National Theatre’s “Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime, Health Education England, NHS, Sky Studios, Oily Cart, Hollyoaks, 2 Brothers Pictures and many others to support more accessible and inclusive working environments.
6
ACCESS ALL AREAS TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
We also support AAA Associate Artists to audition for roles across theatre, TV, and film. The most high-profile of these was the National Theatre’s production of “Faith, Hope, and Charity”, and Headlong Theatre / Old Vic production of “Jitney”. Both received high-profile positive press coverage, and continued to tour nationally and internationally beyond this financial year.
Take Part
Our work has always been grounded in our learning disabled and autistic communities, and this year our Take Part programme continued to work to make sure everyone has a chance to be creative, regardless of background or access needs. We ran a record 1,637 creative workshop sessions this year, reaching 250 learning disabled and autistic people from diverse and intersectional backgrounds.
After the pandemic led to the cancellation of our in-person work, this year saw us focus on supporting people back into safe and supported creative engagement in their communities. Our Spring Back programme in particular focused on wellbeing and re-emergence into the post-Covid world, working with participants who have been amongst the most isolated throughout the pandemic. Our Spinning Wheel programme also began in-person work again, working with participants with complex access needs, many of whom are non-verbal, to develop their communication and creative skills, and wellbeing, and to make sure they can develop their own creative voices.
After the success of our creative wellbeing programme during lockdown, we continued our 1:1 creative walks, and online engagement, with participants who needed extra support to reengage, and continued to provide training to carers, volunteers and parents in our intensive sensory methodologies.
Financial Review
In 2021/22 Access All Areas’ turnover was £811,431, an increase of 22% on the previous year.
We spent £807,536 on charitable activities, leaving a surplus of £3,895 which will be added to our reserves.
7
ACCESS ALL AREAS TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
Access All Areas has a strict system of financial controls in place which ensures that budgets are carefully monitored and updated throughout the year. This includes two-person authorisation of all payments, and oversight by our Treasurer of payments and budgeting. We have a policy to aim to increase our reserves until our reserves target is met.
2021/22 was our 4[th] year as an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation. Under this agreement we receive £127,300 for the year.
Arts Council England also funded our Transforming Leadership Programme, with a total 2.5 year grant of £283,512 contributing £129,512 this financial year. This was the final year of this grant programme.
We acted as “trustee grantholders” for Arts Council England Project grants for our Associate Artists, and also received a Project Grant for “The Interrogation”. Altogether, Arts Council England Project grants contributed £86,215 to the charity this year, with a special placement grant contributing a further £6,300.
A “Reinvent Performing Arts” grant from Esmée Fairbairn helped us to restart our work after the pandemic, contributing £40,645 this financial year.
City Bridge Trust also contributed £21,900, as part of a 5 year grant (extended from 3 years), going towards our Take Part activity and associated costs.
We received a generous donation of £85,750 from Sky Studios towards the cost of our Performance Making Diploma, allowing us to continue running the world’s leading Performance Making course for learning disabled and autistic artists.
We also had considerable earned income in this financial year.
Netflix UK paid a commission of £50,000 in return for consultancy services, which saw us work as access consultants and coaches across Netflix UK productions.
We received £44,055 from Mencap for the creation of NHS training films, as part of the Oliver Magowan Mandatory Training.
8
ACCESS ALL AREAS TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
Other consultancy work, including training workshops, creative coaching of artists, and script consultancy, brought in £51,358.
We secured £6,897 in box office income, £4,879 in participant fees and donations, and £1,514 in commission from Agency Artists.
We received £33,159 in other earned income, including fees for workshops, fees from coproducers for productions, and speaker fees.
Income from Access to Work brought in £102,982 towards support worker and access costs for Associate Artists and staff. Other income includes projects Theatre Tax Relief, and other small donations and earned income receipts.
Reserves Policy
Access All Areas reserves have been gradually built up over time from annual budget surpluses. This ongoing year on year surplus is due to the tight budgeting controls that we have in place, which include continual reforecasting to ensure Access All Areas spends within its means across all projects.
As a minimum the level of these reserves should allow us to fund all staff salaries for the duration of their notice periods, settle all outstanding invoices for goods and services provided, and return any funding and income where the outcome will not be completed.
Beyond this, Access All Areas aim to hold reserves that would fund all staff salaries, and rent on our office premises, for 6 months. This allows the charity time to recover from any unsuccessful fundraising or earned income generating activity. As a result of increased staff and increased turnover in 2021-22, our reserves target level has increased.
The reserves target is £184,814.
The reserves figure at year-end was £178,745.
Risk Management
9
ACCESS ALL AREAS TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The board periodically reviews the major external risks to which the charity is exposed and has established systems to mitigate those risks, as far as is reasonably possible. Internal risks are mitigated via robust policies and procedures covering all areas of management, human resources, financial probity, health and safety, environmental sustainability, and diversity targets.
Structure, Governance and Management
Access All Areas was established under a Constitution on 24th April 2017, which established the objects and powers of the Charitable Incorporated Organisation. It has the same name and substantially the same objects as the former charity (registered no 1120588). On 1 June 2017 the activities, assets and liabilities of the former charity were transferred to the new CIO. The old association has since been removed from the register of charities.
The predecessor of both the charity and CIO was Rainbow Drama Group (Hackney), established 1976 and registered as a charity on 13 June 2007.
As set out in the Constitution, the Co-Chairpersons and new Trustees are nominated and elected by members of the Charity. The Co-Chairpersons must stand down for re-election after every three-year term and, set on rotation according to election dates, a third of Trustees must stand down for re-election each year.
New Trustees meet with the Chair of the Board and receive an induction pack that outlines their legal obligations under charity law. They are also updated on the current situation of the Charity's finances and activities. They are invited to observe at least one meeting before formal election.
Access All Areas operates a co-leadership model, where one of the CoChairpersons and one of the Co-Deputy Chairpersons must identify as learning disabled or autistic, to ensure appropriate learning disabled and autistic representation at leadership level.

1 Accounting policies
1.1 General information and basis of preparation of accounts
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 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) issued on 16 July 2014, as updated on 2 February 2016 (SORP 2016), FRS 102, the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015. FRS 102 should be effective 01/01/2019.
The accounts 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 SORP 2016 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 (SORP 2005) which has since b ithd The accounts are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these accounts are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
1.2 Income
All income is recognised when there is entitlement to the funds, the receipt is probable and the amount can be measured reliably.
1.3 Expenditure
Liabilities are 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 benefit will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been clasified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure includes attributable VAT which cannot be recovered. Payments to partner organisations and other expenditure on operational programmes are accordingly recognised in the period they are incurred.
1.4 Reserves policy
As an organisation with fluctuating revenue streams, Access All Areas needs to safeguard its future. Cash reserves are retained to ensure the organisation can operate as a going concern in the instance of reduced income, or to ensure fulfilment of all contracts as part of a solvent liquidation should funding cease entirely.
Access All Areas cash reserves have been gradually built up over time from annual budget surpluses. This ongoing year on year surplus is as a result of the tight budgeting controls in place, which involve continual reforecasting to ensure Access All Areas spends within its means across all projects.
The level of this reserve as a minumum should be sufficient to
a) Fulfil all staff members' contracts for the duration of their notice periods;
b) Settle all outstanding invoices for goods and services provided;
c) Return any funding and income where the outcome will not be completed.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
Access All Areas future budgets are planned with the aim to achieve and surpass that target. At the end of this financial year, the reserves are
For Access All Areas the target reserve level should cover 6 months of all staff wages on payroll and rent of the premises. This will allow as much time as possible to recover from any unsucessful funding.
Access All Areas future budgets are planned with the aim to achieve and surpass that target.
Review
To assess reserve levels a review should be carried out periodically. As the end of year accounts are produced, the financial position will be reviewed alongside an assessment of all payroll costs. This assessment will determine the target surplus for the following year.
1.5 Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds 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.
Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the accounts.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes. The cost of administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the accounts.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset on a systematic basis over its expected useful life of 4 years.
1.7 Debtors and creditors receivable/payable within one year
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure.
1.8 Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.

Agency
Run in partnership with Simon & How, we support Access All Areas' learning disabled and autistic artists to find, auditon for, and secure work with other theatre, TV, and film companies, and support them during these roles, creating sustainable employment opportunities for learning disabled and autistic performers, and increasing the representation of learning disabled and autistic talent on our stages and screens.

Black Cab Company
Black Cab is a community drama group for lewarning disbaled and autistic adults.
We work with leading creatives, including learning disabled and autistic Associate Artists, to build a creative community that celebrates the individual creativity of local Hackney residents. This year we developed and produced a performance of "Winged" at Hackney Showroom.
Consultancy
Through our Consultancy programme we support other organisations to improve inclusivity for learning disabled and autistic artists, audiences and members of the public. Originally piloted with support from Arts Council England, this has gone on to become an earned income stream that provides employment for skilled learning disabled and autistic professionals.
Departure Lounge
This programme is for local learning disbaled and autistic people with little previous experience of performance, focusing on building life skills and new relationships with others in the group. Departure Lounge enables participants to gain confidence both in and out of the drama studio.
