## **CHAIR’S STATEMENT**
When putting together my first report last year, with the ambitious plans we had for our second year to have it actually be a year full of uncertainty with the world devastated by Covid-19 has been heart breaking.
In March 2020 we were forced to stop everything we were doing and re-evaluate. The financial impact of Covid-19 is still being felt today and it’ll be some time before we know the full extent of the impact. The RABBLE Theatre team have done an incredible job reacting with immense speed and decisiveness, moving classes online and coming up with inventive ways to ensure the continued success of our aims despite the ongoing crisis. Their focus and commitment to delivering artistic and educational productions for the people of Reading throughout the challenges has been commendable. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank the whole RABBLE Theatre team for their unshakeable dedication to ensure its future success.
More information on our Covid-19 response can be found on page 6.
Despite the pandemic, we achieved so much in FY20, launching our website rabbletheatre.com which absolutely encapsulates RABBLE’s passions to be bold, inclusive and inspirational, everything we hoped it would be. Our commitment to accessibility has strengthened with the launch of the RABBLE Hardship fund in partnership with Aviva Community Fund creating free opportunities for social interaction, skill development and meaningful cultural engagement at productions and classes. In 2019, thanks to fundraising efforts, we got 900 Reading pupils into our shows who ordinarily would not have been able to attend, the opportunity to extend this further is truly wonderful.
The support we have received for the campaign to save Reading Gaol has been overwhelming with messages coming from Sir Kenneth Branagh, Dame Judi Dench, Natalie Dormer, Shazad Latif, Reading’s own Kate Winslet and even Banksy paying a visit to adorn the Gaol with his artwork.
While we are unable to entertain you in person, we thoroughly enjoyed our foray into radio and online productions with _Who Killed Alfred Oliver_ in partnership with BBC Radio Berkshire, our Christmas show, _The Online Nativity_ and are proud to share our _Monologues from The Conquerors Trilogy_ . We are working hard in the background to bring you productions in the Summer of 2021 starting with The Last Abbot of Reading hosted in the Abbey Ruins.
2020, while only being our second year from a reporting perspective, was actually our third active year so we underwent our first review of trustees. We were sad to accept the resignation of Steven Pidcock but look forward to 2021 with the remaining original trustees and space for new expertise and insights to join us.
Everything we do would not be possible without the generous support of our RABBLE Rousers, Sponsors, Partners and the many of you that will come along to

our productions, workshops and educational events when we are up and running. I thank you unreservedly.
With the post Covid-19 landscape still unknown, it is necessary for us to be cautiously optimistic and adaptable and I believe RABBLE Theatre is perfectly positioned to accept this challenge. This Board is committed to working with the Executive team to ensure RABBLE Theatre produce critically acclaimed theatrical productions in person once more.

## **COVID-19 STATEMENT**
While it will take some time for us to realise the full impact across the economy of the events caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, we know a wide range of businesses across all industries have felt the effect. Charities in particular have seen fundraising slow and donations reduce significantly.
In March 2020, in accordance with Government guidelines we announced that RABBLE Theatre moved our education programmes and masterclasses onto Zoom meaning that we were able to not only continue teaching, but also maintain the community that we’ve built up over the years. This really did keep the morale going.
We shall continue to monitor events and adapt accordingly, investing in our online strategy as well as our in person strategy in order to meet our goals and ensure the future of RABBLE Theatre.

## **OUR CHARITABLE AIM**
The aim of RABBLE Theatre is to:
_advance education of the public in the arts, in particular through training and workshops in the performing arts and through providing performances for the benefit of the public, in order to inspire people of all ages and backgrounds in Reading and England to appreciate and access the performing arts._
As this was the charity’s inaugural year, it was all about shaping our future and setting off on the right path in accordance with the RABBLE Theatre Constitution.
As a charity, the objectives of RABBLE Theatre can be described under the following headings: productions, audience engagement, classes and workshops, diversity and solid ground for the future.
## Productions
RABBLE will provide a variety of productions in each year to benefit the public. All productions will be for the education of the public in general, giving everyone the opportunity to learn, regardless of their background, financial position or any other factor.
## Audience Engagement
RABBLE will continue to develop new ways of engaging audiences, in particular to engage new audiences who might not normally attend theatre.
## Classes and Workshops
RABBLE will offer term time classes, work experience and regular workshops to individuals, schools and the public in general to educate and inspire. All charges for classes and workshops will be made to be as affordable as possible and RABBLE will seek grants and/or donations to enable the charity to offer interested parties both merit scholarships and hardship scholarships.
## Diversity
RABBLE will continue to develop new ways of engaging a diverse range of actors and theatre creatives who reflect the wide-ranging community that we call home in Reading and are passionate about the aims of the charity.
## Solid Ground for the Future
RABBLE Theatre relies on donations, grants, sponsorship and the generosity of the public to cover both production and operating costs. It is important we develop income streams, invest appropriately into our physical infrastructure and operate responsibly to run at a small surplus, build up an operating reserve and move to sustainability.

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**
## Governing Document
RABBLE Theatre is governed by its Constitution dated 12 September 2018. It is registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation with the Charity Commission.
## Appointment of Trustees
In accordance with the Constitution, apart from the first charity trustees, every trustee must be appointed for a term of three years by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of the charity trustees. In selecting individuals for appointment as charity trustees, the charity trustees must have regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the charity.
## Trustee Induction and Training
In accordance with the Constitution, the trustees will make available to each new trustee, on or before his or her first appointment: (a) a copy of the current version of this constitution; and (b) a copy of the CIO’s latest Trustees’ Annual Report and statement of accounts.
## Organisation
The board of trustees, which must have a minimum of 3 members, administers the charity. The board meets quarterly and there are subcommittees covering finances and development. An Operations team has been appointed by the trustees to manage the day to day running of the charity. The Operations team consists of:
## **Executive Director: Dani Davies**

## **Education Officer: Louise Gilmour**
Responsibilities include building the audiences of the future for RABBLE Theatre.
## **Community Fundraising and Marketing: Evi Pagrati**
Responsibilities include finding inventive ways to meet our fundraising goals and ensuring we make the most of all communication channels available to us.
## **Bookkeeper: Ania Haskins**
## Related Parties
None of the trustees receive remuneration or other benefit for their work with the charity. Any connection between a trustee or senior manager of the charity with a production company, actor, performer, exhibitor must be disclosed to the full board of trustees in the same way as a relationship with any other contractual relationship with a related party. In the current year, no such relationships were declared.
The charity has a close relationship with Reading Between the Lines (RBL) Theatre Company, an established theatre company set up in Reading in 2012. It is a company limited by guarantee, and directors Dani Davies and Toby Davies have been running the company for the last 6 years. The company is very successful, funding its work through Reading Borough Council, Arts Council England, The Wellcome Centre, The Earley Charity, local businesses and individual donors. Over time, RBL Theatre Company will transfer its assets, including name and goodwill, to RABBLE Theatre and we the trustees, will continue the work that RBL Theatre Company has started.
## Risk Management
The Trustees have a risk management strategy which comprises:
- An annual review of risks the charity may encounter
- The establishment of procedures to mitigate those risks
- A plan to implement those procedures should those risks materialise
The use of this strategy has identified the primary risks to the charity are financial stability and the lack of a dedicated rehearsal/performance space. The key elements to mitigate these risks are sufficient working capital to be maintained in the charity and working with other local organisations to find a “home”.

## **TRUSTEES RESPONSIBILITIES IN RELATION TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**
The charity trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees’ annual report and preparing financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the charity trustees to prepare financial statements that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable organisation. The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity to ensure they comply with the Charities Act 1993, the Charity (Accounts and Regulations) 2008 and the Constitution. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and take reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## **TREASURER’S STATEMENT**
Our inspiring forecast for the year ending 31 January 2021 soon became something of a distant dream once the COVID-19 pandemic closed the country down in March 2020. Like so many others, all our planned productions were unable to take place, with creativity and innovation driving everything to ensure some form of education, training and possible productions could continue.
The team worked relentlessly to deliver a successful year which included a radio airplay on BBC Berkshire “Who Killed Alfred Oliver?” They transformed all their education and master-class training programmes into live online interactive workshops. They participated in Reading’s Twilight Trail community event and managed to produce a successful live streamed production ‘The Online Nativity’ over the Christmas period.
All of this was made possible by the loyalty and generosity of all our patrons, donors and corporate sponsors, who during unprecedented times enabled our immerging charity to continue to succeed.
This year’s financial report has been prepared on an accrual basis, in accordance with the 2008 Regulations and the SORP. The financial accounts have been approved by the Board of Trustees and externally verified by an independent examiner – see Independent Examiner’s Report.

Key events with fnancial impact during the Charity’s year of operation were as follows:
1. Covid-19 meant that the planned productions were unable to take place at all and seriously impacted the forecast income for the year. Instead, the following innovative productions were showcased :
- a. Who Killed Alfred Oliver? - A radio play aired on BBC Berkshire - this was not an income generating production.
- b. Twilight Trail - a walkthrough light trail with recorded theatrical readings - generated a small profit.
- c. The Online Nativity - a live streamed Christmas show - broke even financially.
- d. Expenditure was incurred in relation to The Last Abbott and in relation to The Snow Queen, both were postponed productions, which are now scheduled to take place in the 2021/22 year.
- e. The Get Up On Stage and Acting School classes had to be moved online for a large part of the year. This meant additional costs were incurred.
2. The Head Partnership and Macbeth Insurers continued to kindly support RABBLE as sponsors. Unfortunately, there was a loss of some anticipated sponsorship due to Reading Festival having to be cancelled due to Covid-19.
3. Reading Between the Lines (RBL) made two very generous donations, in accordance with their articles of association in specifying the distribution of any remaining assets on winding up of the company for a community purpose. The sums consisted of funds to be used for general purposes, and an additional deposit that is to be used for restricted purposes, as designated by RBL.
4. Grants were received from ACE and The Leche Trust. These were allowed to be re-purposed from their original purposes. In addition, a discretionary government Covid-19 grant was received from RBC.

5. Grants from Garfield Weston and from The Earley Charity, for restricted purposes in 2021/22 were received and these have been reflected in the balance sheet under restricted funds.
6. The Caversham Centre was unable to be used during lockdown whilst still incurring ongoing costs such as business rates and utilities. Unfortunately, notice to vacate at short notice was given by the landlord in November 2020 and subsequently, room hire costs at alternative venues had to be incurred for in-person classes that took place in between the lockdowns.
7. One-off expenditure was incurred on the development of a brand new website and ticket booking system.
8. Ongoing staff costs were incurred during the year in respect of the executive and artistic directors, the office manager and additionally the bookkeeper and marketing officer. In addition a fundraising officer was engaged in January 2021. None of the staff are employees or Trustees of the Charity.

## **Note 2 Accounting policies**
## **2.2 INCOME**
_This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below._
|**Recognition of income**
**Grants with performance**
**conditions**
Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output
to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the grant has provided
the specified service or output.
**Grants payable without**
**performance conditions**
Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to realistically avoid
the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be recognised.
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis
consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs
by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
**Income from membership**
**subscriptions**
Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and Legacies.
Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other benefits are
recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as income from charitable
activities
**Settlement of insurance**
**claims**
Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met
(5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other income in the SoFA.
**Investment gains and**
**losses**
This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and any gain or loss
resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year.
**2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES**
**Liability recognition**
Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation
committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with
reasonable certainty.
**Governance and support**
**costs**
Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs
comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and
good practice.
**Support costs**
The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.
**Volunteer help**
The �al�e of an� �ol�n�a�� help �ecei�ed i� no� incl�ded in �he acco�n�� b�� i� de�c�ibed in �he �����ee��
annual report.
**Income from interest,**
**royalties and dividends**
This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured
reliably.
Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when receivable.
**Donated services and**
**facilities**
Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the gift to the
charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably.
Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income with an
equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the SOFA.
The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the fair value of
those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt. In the reporting period in which
the stocks are distributed they are recognised as an expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at
Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the expected
proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income from other trading
activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet On its sale the value of stock is
Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and included in
the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.
**Tax reclaims on donations**
**and gifts**
Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid
amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the
same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
**Contractual income and**
**performance related grants**
This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or services or met the
performance related conditions.
**Donated goods**
Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless
impractical to do so.
In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent that the charity
has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant only occurs when the
performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP).
**Legacies**
Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of
probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions
attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met.
**Government grants**
The charity has received government grants in the reporting period
· it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and
� the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
**Offsetting**
**Grants and donations**
Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met
(5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or
permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.
� the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
