## **2FACED DANCE COMPANY LIMITED** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023**_ 

The Trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2023. 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 of the financial statements and comply with the Charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 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) (effective 1 January 2019)". 

## **Objectives and activities** 

The objectives, as stated in the governing documents, are to advance and promote participation in and appreciation of performance art, especially in the form of dance, and to provide education and training in performance art, especially dance and associated disciplines. 

In shaping our objectives for the year and planning our activities we have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit, including the guidance "public benefit: running a charity (PB2)" at our Trustees' meetings. In setting the levels of ticket prices, fees, and other charges the Board and senior management is committed to ensuring that all activities are available to those on low incomes through the provision of fair pricing, concessions and, where applicable, bursaries. 

The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the Charity should undertake. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

The financial year 22/23 was starting to feel like “back to normal” following the stop start previous year that had still been impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic and a slow return to theatre.  We continued to adjust our programme and organisational operations to enable us to respond to ever shifting external factors. 2Faced Dance remained committed to our mission, vision, and grounding principles during this time, and we continued to adapt our approach and activity to ensure longevity, stability, and sustainability. 

Throughout the year we worked hard to ensure our home, the Centre for Movement, could be a space that would become a creative centre for inclusion, allowing our own work to flourish, expanding our community programme, engaging further with our local communities and offering a space in which artists could explore, discuss and play. Off the back of an access audit with Goss Consulting, a consultation period with our local community and a successful application to ACE’s Capital Investment Fund, the company were able to make significant access improvements to the Centre for Movement. Installing a wheelchair lift, power assisted doors and ramps alongside providing a range of seating, height adjustable desks and other important access needs. The company continued its commitment to working and creating inclusively and sustainably and was pleased to see investment being made into rural areas. 

We continued to find new ways of offering participation projects to schools, inviting schools into the studios through our Experience Days and developing new partnerships with Lincoln University, Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, and Creative Connections. We offered free dance workshops to secondary schools in Herefordshire, invigorated our weekly class programme for our local community, adding contemporary dance classes for adults and continued our commitment to developing the next generation of artists through mentoring, training, and CPD. During the year we worked with approx. 7800 people through our participation programmes.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023**_ 

Striving to be nimble to the current issues of the world and the increasing need for performance work to take place outdoors, we adapted our large-scale outdoor work, Where All Paths Lead, which had been commissioned in 21/22 by Compton Verney Arts Gallery and Park. Working with Herefordshire based designer Carl Davies, we created a touring version of the show with performances at Kensington and Chelsea Festival and the Birmingham International Dance Festival in the summer of 2023. 

We performed existing pieces, POWER, choreographed by Alleyne Dance as part of our Bench Commission in 2019 and LAST ORDERS, choreographed by Sean Moss as part of a Multi-Story Commission in 2021. Both works proved to be highly successful with programmers, festivals and audiences and continued our strategy of educating and training the next generation of young artists and ensuring that voices not found on our stages could be heard and seen.  Our outdoor works were performed 27 times at 14 different festivals and events including in Hull, Grimsby, Stoke, Derby and Watford. In 2021 we commissioned first time film maker Isla Hurst to create a new short film, Bert The Turtle D.O.A, and in 2022 the film was selected to be shown at 7 film festivals globally, picking up a People’s Choice award and an Honourable Mention along the way. A huge achievement for the company’s first foray into work produced for film. 

Indoor venues finally cast off the remnants of Covid lockdowns and we were able to finally perform our postponed triple bill Everything (but the girl) in Walsall, Leeds, Hereford, Newbury, Doncaster, and Birmingham. This work was exceptionally well received by audiences but with evidence of caution in the return to theatres, numbers were down on pre-covid years. Alongside the performances we undertook a series of highly successful workshops in schools and with students from Centre for Advanced Training. 

We continued our work with Associate Artists - Rhiannon Faith, Sarah Blanc, and Linden Dance Company - who had joined us in the summer of 2021 on our 18-month development programme. The outcome of the programme was incredibly positive with all artists securing ACE funding and one artist securing Arts Council NPO funding. Our Artists Advisory Group continued until November 2022 with monthly meetings and workshops for independent artists from varied backgrounds both local and national. We created a space in which to provide advice but also to reflect on what the wider 2Faced Dance team could change or develop to help shape our own programmes and ensure that we continue to hear and include a range of voices in our work. 

A hugely impactful and significant year of growth for the company was halted by the unfortunate news in November, that our application for Arts Council NPO funding for the 23/26 tri-year award had not been successful. The loss of this regular funding was completely unexpected, given that we were part way through an ACE funded Capital Investment Project and a devastating blow to the organisation, which serves on average 50,000 people a year through its programmes. After only just beginning to see a return to normality after the pandemic the company faced huge uncertainty. However, as an agile and determined organisation and not to be deterred by this news, the resilient and determined staff and trustees of 2Faced Dance, thus began exploring ways of making up the lost funding from ACE. We launched our hugely successful campaign ‘195 Reasons Why’ raising awareness of our plight, galvanizing our communities, and driving donations to keep our doors open. Staff and Trustees took part in ‘Fearless February’ raising further funds and we hosted an important Gala at The Courtyard in Hereford in March 2023, which featured students past and present. 

Alongside the continuation of our programmes and events to raise funds we also applied for and were successful in achieving ACE’s Transition Funding, a scheme that would enable the company to think about its future, transition to a new business model and prepare for life without regular funding. We also accepted free offers of expert advice on fundraising, strategy and development and begun applying for future funding, including an ACE Project Grant Application.  We did not sit still. 

As a result of the funding loss, the company will need to consider a more mixed income approach to fundraising, look at its staffing structure, number of programmes it produces and fees it charges. While the Board and staff are committed to implementing a new funding and business model to ensure the company’s future, we cannot detract from the quality of our professional dance work and will continue to create new and original pieces of work, that resonate with our communities. As the only professional dance company, geographically based in a rural and culturally underserved location, now more than ever, we have a continued commitment and sense of purpose to provide exceptional cultural opportunities for our local and national communities. The positive and overwhelming response by the public to our NPO loss clearly demonstrates the support for the company and its work. 

We are always super proud of the whole team at 2Faced Dance Company but this year, despite our most challenging year to date, the team have continued to provide inspirational, and much needed powerful work, with humility, grace, passion, and excellence.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023**_ 

## **Financial review** 

During the year total income received amounted to £379,225 (2022: £379,302) 50% of which was our NPO funding from Arts Council England. 13% of income related to performance fees (2022: 9%) from the summer/ autumn tours and a further 11% (2022: 8%) came from generated income in the form of studio hires and class programmes. 

Expenditure totalled £368,075 resulting in an overall surplus of £11,150 (2022: £9,544). Of the expenditure noted above £16,278 (2022: £19,642) was spent from our restricted reserves. 

The total reserves as at the balance sheet date amounted to £237,104 (2022: £225,954) of which £9,661 (2022: £18,096) related to restricted funds, £157,633 (2022: £104,798) to designated funds and unrestricted funds carried forward showed a surplus of £69,810 (2022: £103,060) at the year end. Further details regarding restricted and designated funds are included in notes 18 and 19 to the financial statements. 

The designated unrestricted reserve of £100,000 remains in place and this equates to approximately three months of normal trading for the charitable company to enable us to continue in the event of any future restrictions. 

## **Principal funding sources** 

The following grant-giving bodies donated to the charitable company during the year: 

The Elmley Foundation, Arts Council England and Hereford High Sherrif. 

The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to these risks. 

We continued to receive our NPO funding for the 22/23 financial year and a further £60k from ACE out of a total grant of £100k for items of capital expenditure spent making the studio spaces more accessible and welcoming to encourage class and hire take ups. Raising funds via other grants or donations from public and private sources was still proving difficult with money being scarce in many sectors. There was generally an increased level of competition for funds as was borne out by our loss of NPO funding for 23/24 and onwards. 

The trustees of the organisation continued to be supportive as we looked to diversify and find new avenues for generating funding especially in the aftermath of the NPO loss. 22/23 was still supported by ACE but much work was undertaken to secure funding into 23/24 and beyond. 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

The Charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee as defined by the Companies Act 2006. 

2Faced Dance Company Limited incorporated on 8 August 2008 and registered as a charity on 16 June 2018.

Directors can serve a maximum of 2 terms, each of 3 years duration. The Board is approved and audited every two to three years in line with the recruitment and Board term cycle. A regular skills audit as part of a Governance Review helps to identify areas of need, informing the Board recruitment strategy. None of the Trustees has any beneficial interest in the company. All the Trustees are members of the company and guarantee to contribute £1 in the event of a winding up.

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Charity information** 

2Faced Dance Company Limited is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is The Old Court, Gaol Street, Hereford, HR1 2HU. 

## **1.1 Accounting convention** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charity's governing document,  the Companies Act 2006 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) (effective 1 January 2019)". The Charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102. 

The Charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows. 

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. 

## **1.2 Going concern** 

At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity 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. 

## **1.3 Charitable funds** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives. 

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **1.4 Income** 

Income is recognised when the Charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received. 

## **1.5 Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, 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 accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributable to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **(Continued)** 

## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. 

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases: 

Plant and equipment 25% Reducing balance Fixtures and fittings 25% Reducing balance Motor vehicles 25% Reducing balance 

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities. 

## **1.7 Impairment of fixed assets** 

At each reporting end date, the Charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). 

## **1.8 Stocks** 

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution. 

## **1.9 Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand. and deposits held at call with banks. 

## **1.10 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. 

Financial instruments are recognised in the Charity's balance sheet when the Charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

## _**Basic financial assets**_ 

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised. 

## _**Basic financial liabilities**_ 

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. 

## _**Derecognition of financial liabilities**_

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **(Continued)** 

## **1.11 Employee benefits** 

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received. 

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the Charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits. 

## **1.12 Retirement benefits** 

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due. 

## **2 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 where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

Arts Council England Cultural Recovery Grant - Funding was provided during the year to assist with the survival of the organisation during the Covid-19 crisis, it was originally provided to cover support for a 6 month period to 31 March 2021, however, this was extended to 30 June 2021. 

Risk reserve - It is the policy of the charity to maintain sufficient unrestricted reserves, which are free reserves of the charity to close down the organisation. In accordance with Charity Commission guidelines these represent three month's running costs of the charity. Based on the 2021/22 budget this amounted to £100,000 and therefore this amount was transferred from unrestricted to designated reserves. 

Fixed assets - assets purchased using restricted funds accounted for through transfer to designated fund.
