Objectives. strategies and activities
During the year ended 30 June 2022, the charity was able to recornmence activities that had been
Postponed or cancelled due lo the pandemic. For regional composers. the online tiaining provided the
previous year was PLrt into praclioe. since they were now able lo go into schools and wotkplaces In
person to deliver educational projects. Our adrninistrator worked both from home and from the office,
a flexible ariangemenl we shall continue. Our enhanced digital presence has pioved a very sound
investment for the dissemination of our work. Our future plans include creating further opportunities
for regional mid-career composers to enhan￿ their skills and use them for the benefrt of others.
Public benefit
UYMP selects indiwduals or organisations to SLJPPOrt or partner on the basis of artistic merit and
polenlial. in order lo fulfil our strategic aims. UYMP has an experienced Board wrth a lange of
expertise. a group of adviseis and an independent leading panel who assess score5. Everything is

Act 2011 to have due regard to the PLJblic benefit gLJidance published by the Charity Commission for
England and Wales.
Financial Review
At the year end the total re5etve5 amounted lo £44,241. ofwhich £7.064 weie restricted. Accordingly,
atthough the overall balance rernained much the same, the free reserves at the year-end were
increased by £13,870 to £37,177 and the Trustees consider financial activity, impact and year-end
position to be satisfactory.
Reserves Poli¢y
Much of the work undertaken by the Charity is project based. which has no need for a reserves buffer,
although building one does provide working capital from which to launch future activity. However, we
do have a commitment to staffing and seek to maintain a reserve which covers a year of this
obligatitsn. We have now achieved our minimum target rèsèrvè of 217.000 and will èndeavour to
rllainlain this going forward. An excess has been allowed to aocumulale, allowing us lo consider
projects with a greater need for working capital.

In¢omg and gndowmonts
All income is re¢ognised once the charity has entillèmenl to the income, il is probable that the income will
be received and the amount of the income receivable can be measured reliably.
Expenditure
All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation lo that expenditure, il is
probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated lo the
applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly
allribuled lo particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consislenl with the use of resources,
with central staff cos15 allocated on the basis of lime spent, and depreciation charge5 allocated on the
portion of the asset's use. Other support Costs are allocated based on the spread of stsff costs.
Support costs
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis
consislenl with the use of resources, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capila,
staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
Govarnance costs
These include the costs attributable to the charity's compliance with constitutional and statutory
requirements, including audit, strategic management and trustees, meetings and reimbursed expenses.
Taxation
The charity is considered lo pass the tests sel out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finall￿ Act 2010 and
therefore it meets the definition of a charitsble company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the
charity is potentially exempl from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories
covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 ofthe Taxation of Chargeable
Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
Stock
Stock is valued al the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell, after due
regard for obsolete and slow moving stocks. Cost is determined using the firsl-in, first-oul IFIFOI.
Trade dabtors
Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary
course of business.
Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequenuy measured al
amortised cost using the effe¢live interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the
impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able
lo collect all amounts due according lo the original terms of the receivables.
