TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 1 APRIL 2023
The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Charity for the 2 April 2022 to 1 April 2023.
Objectives and activities
a. Policies and objective
The objects of Ruff Sqwad Arts Foundation, as set out in our governing document are:
To act as a resource for young people and young adults by providing advice and assistance and organising programmes of physical, educational, high quality arts and other activities as a means of:
(a) advancing in life and helping young people and young adults by developing their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as independent, mature and responsible individuals;
(b) advancing education;
(c) relieving unemployment;
(d) providing recreational and leisure time activity in the interests of social welfare for people living in the area of benefit who have need by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disability, poverty or social and economic circumstances with a view to improving the conditions of life of such persons.
b. Activities undertaken to achieve objectives
In 2017, grime legends Prince Owusu-Agyekum (aka Rapid) and Ebenezer Ayerh (aka Slix) founded Ruff Sqwad Arts Foundation (RSAF) to give young people direct access to mainstream resources, knowledge, and opportunities to reach their full potential in creative careers and life.
Through our innovative way of working, we create meaningful cultural engagement opportunities by integrating high quality arts, youthwork, industry connections and enterprise. We were previously based in RebBox Studios in Poplar, East London but have since moved so we’re now based in Hackney Bridge which is a new site in Newham with many thriving creatives, charities, organisations, companies and brands like the Good Growth Hub, The Outrunners, Borkwood & Co, Discordo and Wicked Bike Repair. Moving into the Hackney Bridge community has really heled inspire and motivate our young people and helped further strengthen our profile and partnerships. As a result of this we’ve continues to develop, expand and evolve our range of cross cultural/creative and cross sector offering which a huge emphasis on creating and delivering projects for youth ages 11-21+ to support personal and talent development.
Current Programming
Elevate : We have now completed our third and final year of Arts Council England, Elevate funding. In our third year we was awarded an elevate extension as a result of the pandemic and it;s hindrance to our efforts to build and strengthen our organizational capacity.
The Winternship : In 2022 we were successfully awarded a grant from Foundation for Future london for a 12 month paid development opportunity for 18-25 year old creatives to engage in high quality, industry-standard film/Screen/stage and music learning activities, creating a short film, providing work-experience, employment and progression pathways. The Winternship was developed with young people from the four Olympic boroughs, and predominantly from underserved backgrounds/communities. All young people on the programme gained paid training opportunities to shadow, learn and develop their skills via bespoke high quality workshops. 56% of participants went on to progress into further employment opportunities and 72% received support to set up their businesses.
Arts Council Engand National Portfolio Award: As part of our efforts to meet the creative demands of the youth and continue to support the needs of young people, we’ve successfully become an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation and will start to deliver various projects from April 2023-April 2026.
In approving the RSAF programming, the Trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 1 APRIL 2023
Achievements and performance
a. Key performance indicators
We are still working on ways to build our reserves but like many other young organizations that were impacted by the pandemic we currently don’t have the level of sustainable reserves as we desire but as we are still a relatively young organization that like many was impacted by the pandemic we’re still developing ways to develop things adequately. As a result of our ongoing efforts and will to continue our support for youth we’ve recently received a donation from Galliard Homes which gives us the flexibility to allocate funds to projects/needs where and when necessary.
Financial review
a. Going concern
Trustees and co-founders have reviewed the forecast for the next year to confirm that nothing will stop the charity from continuing its work.

In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS' REPORT TO RUFF SQWAD ARTS FOUNDATION
Independent examiner's report to the Trustees of Ruff Sqwad Arts Foundation ('the Charity')
I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 1 April 2023.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the Trustees of the Charity you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no 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 130 of the 2011 Act; or
-
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.
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 accounts to be reached.
This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent examiner's report and for no other purpose.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 1 APRIL 2023
1. General information
Ruff Sqwad Arts Foundation is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation. The address of its registered office can be found on page 1 of these financial statements.
2. Accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (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.
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 the Charities SORP (FRS 102) published in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
Ruff Sqwad Arts Foundation meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
2.2 Going concern
Trustees and co-founders have reviewed the forecast for the next year to confirm that nothing will stop the charity from continuing its work. The charity is currently in a good position and will continue to strengthen its capacity to generate income and implement measures to become more sustainable.
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.
2.4 Expenditure
Expenditure 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. Expenditure 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. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the Charity and include project management carried out at Headquarters.
Costs of generating funds are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.
Charitable activities and Governance costs are costs incurred on the Charity's operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the Charity apportioned to charitable activities.

2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.5 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.
2.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
All assets costing £200 are capitalised.
A review for impairment of a fixed asset is carried out if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of any fixed asset may not be recoverable. Shortfalls between the carrying value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts are recognised as impairments. Impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of financial activities.
Tangible fixed assets are carried at cost, net of depreciation and any provision for impairment. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Equipment - 5 years straight line
2.7 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance 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.
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of financial activities as a finance cost.
2.8 Financial instruments
The Charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
2.9 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.
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 costs of raising and 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 financial statements.
Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
