2.4 ASSETS Intangible fixed assets Heritage assets Debtors Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received. Stocks and work in progress Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net realisable value. Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value based on the service potential provided by items of stock. Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract. 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. They are valued at cost. Investments Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments 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. The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody or legal rights. The amortisation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.5 They are valued at cost. The charity has heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic, scientific, technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held and maintained principally for their contribution to knowledge and culture. The depreciation rates and methods used as disclosed in note 9.6.1.4. 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. Investment gains and losses The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per paragraph 11.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19, FRS102 SORP. Tangible fixed assets for use by charity The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.2. 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. 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. They are valued at cost. These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least Redundancy cost The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period. Deferred income No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts. Creditors The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts Provisions for liabilities A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date Basic financial instruments		Yes No N/a	Yes No N/a	Yes No N/a

Objectives and Activities

	SORP reference
Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document	Para 1.17	‘Objects’ as stated in the Constitution are as follows: (A) the advancement of the education of musicians at the start of their professional careers, by bridging the gap between full- time study and employment, including (but not limited to) through: (i) the provision of career mentorship; (ii) the provision of musical and theatrical coaching and masterclasses; (iii) the provision of meaningful work opportunities and experience; and (iv) fostering the creation of valuable and long-lasting networks to support career development; (B) the advancement of education of the general public, including (but not limited to) through: (i) staging of accessible opera productions; (ii) production of supplementary materials which engage target audiences; and (C) the advancement of the arts, including (but not limited to) through: (i) the creation of immersive opera productions; and (ii) the development of new collaborative practices for creating and staging operas; (iii) reinventing the narratives of standard repertoire operas and collaborating with practitioners from other disciplines.
Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts.	Para 1.17 and 1.19	During the period, the organisation produced two operatic/vocal gala concerts - Singin' in the Spring! and Halloween Gala, both aimed at bringing classical singing to a broad audience through accessible programming, entertaining staging, and a highly engaging and immersive aesthetic. At both galas, tickets were offered at a reduced prices to students and young people. The organisation also hosted two masterclasses with world-renowned singers Susan Bullock and Della Jones - each one providing four emerging singers with the opportunity to work with teachers of the highest calibre and to present their audition

		repertoire to an audience. Tickets were offered to music students at nearby universities and London-wide conservatoires at a very discounted rate. Finally, the organisation produced a series of operatic gala events for the Earl's Court Community Trust as part of the Earl's Court Community's celebration of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. These concerts were free to attend to residents of the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Each event attracted an audience of over 300. They were hosted in the open air in garden squares in RBKC. Famous classical repertoire was presented in an easy to understand and approachable way to audiences as young as two years old as well as locals well into their 90s. These were funded through a grant from a local business - TLC. The organisation invested time in audience building and fundraising. Fundraising bids written in 2022 secured a total of £46,500 to be spent on projects taking place in the next accounting period - 2023. NB. one of these grants (for £1,500) was received by the charity at the end of the 2022 period. The Organisation grew its mailing list by over 100% during the period. This was largely due to the decision to invest in the part-time, self-employed contracting of a social media officer for the last three months of the period.

Achievements and Performance

	SORP reference
Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole.	Para 1.20	1) Production of Singin' in the Spring and Halloween Gala. These galas offered a supported opportunity for emerging artists to trial new repertoire and to boost their social media presence and to network build. Agents and industry professionals were present at both galas. The events included both mainstream and unusual repertoire and involved engaging introductions and staging - supporting the charity's objective of education of the public and promotion of the arts. 2) Hosting of two masterclasses - one with Susan Bullock and one with Della Jones Each masterclass offered four emerging artists the chance to work with a mentor and teacher at the top of their professional game and to gain invaluable insight into how to perform their repertoire. Singers at each masterclass went on to perform the arias workshopped in auditions, recordings, and galas. Masterclasses provide a fantastic opportunity for the public to experience how classical vocalists work and to garner intriguing insights into operatic roles and repertoire. 3) Producing a series of Jubilee galas for the Earl's Court Community Trust These concerts brought opera to the whole community and were an excellent way to broaden the art form's appeal and to educate audiences about opera. The concert series provided paid work for ten performers. It also provided the singers with experience of performing in a more

unusual outdoor setting, including managing amplified vocals. 4) Fundraising Our fundraising efforts have ensured that in 2023 we will be able to bring immersive and evocative opera to a far broader audience; and further support the emerging artists with whom we work. 5) Profile building We have broadened our potential audience base significantly. This in turn gives us more scope for providing exposure and support to emerging artists, while making sure we are fulfilling our aim of bringing the art form of opera to more diverse, and wider audiences.

Achievements against objectives set	Para 1.41	See above for a discussion of how our achievements satisfied our objectives and benefitted the public, emerging artists and the advancement of the arts.
Performance of fundraising activities against objectives set	Para 1.41	The charity was able to raise funds through: Ticket Sales (£2,592), Community grant from a local business - TLC (£3,500), and The Leche Trust (£1,500) As well as private donations and subscriptions of £1,041. The Charity also secured pledges for major grants for use in 2023 from The Arts Council (£30,000), Cockayne Grants for the Arts (£10,000) and The Fenton Arts Trust (£4,000). These funds were sufficient to produce our galas and masterclasses and will support the charity in producing two new staged operas in 2023, as well as a concert performance of a third. Our funding met our 2023 objectives - though we were unsuccessful in raising sufficient funds to produce a staged opera during 2022.
