## **Structure, governance and management** 

The charity is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) foundation formed on 12 May 2020 and is governed by a constitution. 

## **Method of recruitment and appointment of trustees** 

The trustees of the charity are appointed by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of the charity trustees. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## **The charity's objects** 

The charity’s objects are, for the benefit of people in particular but not exclusively in the Seacroft area of Leeds: 

1. the advancement of the art of drama in such ways as the trustees may from time to time decide. 2. to promote social inclusion for the public benefit by preventing people from becoming socially excluded, relieving the needs of those people who are socially excluded and assisting them to integrate into society though the provision of creative activities. 

(For the purpose of this clause ‘socially excluded’ means being excluded from society, or part of society, as a result of being a member of a socially and/or economically deprived community.) 

## **The charity's main activities** 

We regularly run a range of activities, workshops and events including: 

Drama / creative workshops for people of all ages, including singing, dance, drama and creative Youth club and after school drama and creative clubs. 

Drama based workshops to build skills in confidence, communication and wellbeing across all ages. Community events and live performances.

## Trustees' report (continued) for the period ended 31 October 2021 

## **Public benefit statement** 

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

The following activities happened during this financial period: 

We have run a range of drama based community workshops, designed to improve confidence and wellbeing, from ages 5 - 80. 

We have run training workshops in team building, public speaking and group facilitation for charity organisations and local residents, as well as supporting local residents to build confidence for further training or employment through social activities and one to one support with CV writing and interview skills. 

We have run a range of arts opportunities for people living in Leeds including creativity for wellbeing workshops, involving elements of dance, drama and mindfulness in partnership with a facilitator who is a trained Classical Indian dancer. 

We have run an intergenerational project ‘From Pens to Pals to Performance’ using letters sent between old and young to inspire conversations, poetry and sketches.  This has connected young people with older residents through pen pal letters and creative activities. 

We have supported local residents into employment and further education through training workshops, social support groups and one to one support. 

We have created 1000’s of mini playboxes to keep children and families creativity engaged during covid19 lockdowns.  We have created a programme to support young people to be young leaders in their community, learning about activism and supporting them in creative social action projects. 

We have put on creative provision during the holidays and supported families to access food. 

We have supported people in Seacroft over the pandemic and have been part of the Seacroft community Hub working closely with other local organisations. 

We have run a weekly drama group and give young people opportunities to visit the theatre. 

We have provided dance and drama workshops for Seacroft residents of all ages; including Generation Squad - an intergenerational drama group and Your Dance, Your Way - a dance group for children with SEND. 

## **Financial review** 

The net income for the period was £95,994, including net income of £40,540 on unrestricted funds and net income of £55,454 on restricted funds. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the period end were £40,540. 

Our overall aim is that the reserves should be maintained at the equivalent of 4 months core costs plus 2% to reflect possible inflationary rises and an amount that would be paid to staff as statutory redundancy pay at the end of the financial year if this was required. 

Much of our operational spend is secured from grants which make up our restricted funds (for example the majority of staff salaries and project costs.)  The trustees recognise that any shortfall in funding for salaries and activities funded by restricted funds could mean that activities and expenditure are reduced or stopped should such circumstances arise.

## Fall into Place Theatre 

## Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Fall into Place Theatre 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the CIO for the period ended 31 October 2021, which are set out on pages 5 to 12. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the CIO you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). 

I report in respect of my examination of the CIO's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since the CIO's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. 

I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of ACIE which is one of the listed bodies. 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

- 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Charities Act; 2 the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## for the period ended 31 October 2021 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Basis of accounting** 

These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by 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) and with the Charities Act 2011. 

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. 

## **Going concern** 

The trustees are satisfied that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue. 

## **Incoming resources** 

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when the charity becomes entitled to the resources, it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. 

## **Grants and donations** 

Grants and donations are only included in the SOFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources. 

Where grants are related to performance and specific deliverables, they are accounted for as the charity earns the right to consideration by its performance. 

## **Expenditure and liabilities** 

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out the resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty. 

## **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. 

## **Taxation** 

As a charity the organisation benefits from rates relief and is generally exempt from income tax and capital gains tax but not from VAT. Irrecoverable VAT is included in the cost of those items to which it relates. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets costing more than £1,000 are capitalised and included at cost including any incidental expenses of acquisition. Gifted assets are shown at the value to the charity on receipt. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost on a straight line basis over their expected useful economic lives as follows: Project and office equipment: over 3 years 

## **Pensions** 

The charity operates a defined contribution scheme for the benefit of its employees.  The costs of contributions are recognised in the period they are payable.
