TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
The trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's articles of association, 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)".
Arts and Homelessness International (AHI) was founded at Streetwise Opera in 2016 to connect and strengthen the sector, worldwide.
AHI is a company limited by guarantee, governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association and incorporated on 15th Jan 2019. It is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission.
Appointment of trustees
As set out in the Board Procedure Policy, in the case of a new Chair of the Board, the exiting Chair should not be involved in the recruitment process except in an advisory role.
Existing Trustees are invited to put themselves forward as candidates to the Nominations Committee. If the successful candidate is already a Trustee, they should be elected as the Chair Designate for one board meeting and then installed as Chair at the next, upon the retirement of the current Chair. If the successful candidate is not already a Trustee, they should be formally invited and elected as a Trustee first and then as Chair Designate (this can happen at the same board meeting).
In the case of appointment of Trustees, the Nominations Committee is responsible, on behalf of the Board, for the recruitment process.
It is chaired by a Trustee other than the Chair of the Board and will include at least three Trustees, one of whom will chair the committee.
The Chair evaluates current skills, knowledge and experience (a ‘Skills Audit’) and, in light of this, prepares a simple description of the role and the capabilities required for a particular appointment or appointments.
Trustee induction and training
On appointment, Trustees will receive an induction pack which will include:
A copy of the Board Responsibilities and Procedures; A declaration of the Register of Interests;
Details of particulars AHI needs for filing with the Charity Commission and Companies House, along with contact information for the staff team, and a Declaration of Eligibility to Act;
Governing Documents including the Articles of Association; Most recent audited accounts; Strategic Plan; Organisation chart; Current year annual budget;
Dates of important events or activities including any Board meetings, fundraising events, ‘Away-days’, performances and workshops; The current Organisational Risk Assessment.
As part of the induction process, new Trustees can meet existing Trustees and others involved with the charity, such as members of staff, volunteers and beneficiaries, outside the board meeting. It is also encouraged that they attend activities, if there are any scheduled.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Organisation
The board of Trustees administers the charity. The board normally meets quarterly and there are sub-committees covering Nominations, Marketing and Representation. A Director is appointed by the Trustees to manage the day-to-day operations of the charity. To facilitate effective operations, the Director has delegated authority, within terms of delegation approved by the trustees, for operational matters including finance, employment and artistic, performance-related activity.
A summary of the 2020-21 year
In any crisis across history, activism and innovation thrives and despite the desperate situation many people faced during COVID, the world of arts and social change saw huge demand for its work and demonstrated its incredible value. As the mainstream cultural sector was forced to close, local authorities, health professionals and the social sector turned to arts and creativity to help isolated people connect to each other, build wellbeing and resilience in communities and reduce boredom and depression in COVID hotels.
As a result, AHI saw more demand and need for its work and we rolled up our sleeves and met the challenge. Consequently, we worked with 1,454 people facing homelessness, more than the last 4 years combined ; helped establish and run the biggest arts programme in any COVID hotel in the UK and ran a global art project connecting people and projects from every continent. We are also honest about where we need to improve including more engagement with the Global South; better representation on the board and finding ways to give more time to projects and relationships when our capacity is stretched.
One of things we are most proud of this year is how we are beginning to make inroads into the re-distribution of power in the sector. We are passionate about co-creation, fair pay for people with lived experience; access to professional development opportunities and enabling people to take their rightful place in decision-making across the whole of the arts and the homelessness sector.
AHI works to bring positive change to people, projects and policy in homelessness through arts and creativity. We have therefore segmented our Impact into the areas of people, projects and policy and the wider sector.
Achievements and performance
1) People
Overall, 2020-21 has seen a huge increase in activities organised by Arts Homelessness International (AHI) as well as the number of people engaging with these activities.
What happened:
- 66 events and 10 new artistic projects delivered.
- Compared to last year, these figures represent a 153% increase on number of events and projects.
Events & projects included:

AHI amplified this to become a global project reaching over 200 people across the world through a network of seven NGOs in USA, Brazil, India, South Africa, Japan, UK and Australia.

4) Policy & Systems
The final aim of AHI’s work is to trigger change in local homelessness policy to include the arts and to include people with lived experience. This work is done over the long term and doesn’t generate immediately quantifiable results in the same way as some of the other work we do, so we are mainly illustrating our achievements in this area over the past year in narrative form, telling the stories as they unfold.
What happened:
2020-21 saw 27 new policy makers connect to the AHI network.
Data gathered via AHI’s Annual Network Survey shows that, membership of the AHI network led to:
- 3 of the 5 policy makers who were asked reported increased awareness of the value of artistic interventions
What was the impact?
AHI’s work in policy reform is now creating huge impacts in the way policy is co-created at a local government level. During 2020-21, both Coventry and Haringey Local Authorities have signed up to working with AHI on a policy cocreation programme through Legislative Theatre. Working with freelance consultant Katy Rubin, AHI will work with people with lived experience and council staff to find practices which will deepen the co-creation of homelessness policy within the council. Both projects will see AHI help to co-create Routh Sleeping Strategies in the LAs and where arts will be embedded into the homelessness activity plans.
“ Working with Arts and Homelessness International has cemented the feeling that arts has a significant role to play in tackling and preventing homelessness and as a statutory body we have a lot to learn.” (feedback from annual network survey)

Charity information
Arts And Homelessness International (Formally known as With One Voice - International Arts And Homelessness Movement) is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 10 Queen Street Place, London, EC4R 1AG.
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 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.
Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity.
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.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
| 1 | Accounting policies | (Continued) |
|---|---|---|
| 1.5 | 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: Computers 33.33% straight line
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 net income/(expenditure) for the year.
1.6 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).
- 1.7 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
1.8 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 using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
