REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

for the Year Ended 31st December 2024

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st December 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The Rules and Constitution of the Society state that the object of the Society is to educate the public in the dramatic and operatic arts, to further the development of public appreciation and taste in the said arts (and to assist and further such charitable purposes as the Committee shall from time to time determine); and in furtherance of this object but not otherwise the Society through its management Committee shall have the following powers:-

(a) To promote plays, drama, comedies, operas, operettas and other dramatic works of educative value.

(b) To purchase, acquire and obtain interests in the copyright of or the right to perform or show any such dramatic or operatic works.

(c) To purchase or otherwise acquire plant, machinery, furniture, fixtures, fittings, scenery and all other necessary effects. (d) To raise funds and invite and receive contributions from any person or person whatsoever by way of subscription, donation and otherwise.

(e) To do all such other things as shall further the objects of the Society.

Public benefit

The charity's aims and achievements are set out within this report. The activities set out in this report have been undertaken to further the charity's charitable purposes for the public benefit. The Trustees have complied with the duty under Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charities Commission and the trustees have paid due regard to this guidance in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

Over the last 12 months we have once again celebrated two excellent and vastly different productions with Kinky Boots and Made In Dagenham which demonstrate the society's ability to turn its hand to vastly different styles of production. Once again the society showcased its range of talent and also showed the power of theatre in amplifying import messages of diversity, acceptance and standing up for what is right.

Both show titles were top of the list of choices from the recent membership discussion, we knew Kinky Boots would be an expensive option and that Dagenham was unlikely to be a huge box office success and this once again demonstrates the importance of the careful forecasting of your trustees and financial management to ensure we plan longer term to allow us, every now and then, to create shows which, while it may not reap the financial gain, brings success in other areas such as membership opportunities, reaching new audiences and forming relationships with key partners and local leaders such as Claire Preston from the Power of Women campaign who spoke so passionately and eloquently to the cast on stage about how deeply Made In Dagenham had moved her and her guests.

The business of DarlingtonOS is not just limited to the stage. We have had a successful year in terms of hiring out Centre Stage to enable us to cover our rental costs and taking further pressure off individual show budgets.

Stagecoach Darlington remain as a long-term hirer of the entire venue every Friday afternoon and all-day Saturday. We also welcomed Crossroads Pantomimes back to rehearse The Darlington Hippodrome panto Sleeping Beauty and they have already booked in for the 2025 production Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

DARLINGTON OS

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

for the Year Ended 31st December 2024

From that standing start in 2019, we now have enough hires to cover the costs of this entire building which means we no longer pay for rehearsal hire ourselves. In addition, it has allowed us to expand our costume hire arm which brings us on average £5,000 per year. In addition, we have our props store as well as having a venue that our members regularly use for self-tapes when going off to professional studies.

It may appear that the role of our Trustees is simply to choose the shows DOS presents, but nothing could be further from the truth. While choosing productions is an important responsibility, it's only a small part of the work we undertake a few times each year. Behind the scenes, our Trustees are constantly busy with tasks that don't always make it onto social media. From governance and financial oversight to supporting long-term planning and community engagement, their work ensures DOS continues to thrive and deliver high-quality theatre experiences. So, although you may not always see it online, rest assured our Trustees are working tirelessly to keep DOS strong, sustainable, and creative.

I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to every member of the committee for the time, energy, and dedication they give to ensure DarlingtonOS continues to stand proudly as one of the leading theatre companies in the UK.

I also want to acknowledge the invaluable contributions of our incredible behind-the-scenes team - from our sound and lighting to props, crew and stage management. You are an integral part of the DarlingtonOS family, and your expertise ensures that every production runs seamlessly and with professionalism.

My final thanks go to the membership, the beating heart of DarlingtonOS. It is your passion, commitment and talent that bring our shows to life on stage. With every performance, you remind us why theatre matters and why our company thrives. Together, we have celebrated another successful twelve months, and I am excited to look ahead to the amazing productions we will share over the coming years.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position

The charity reported a deficit of £7,011 in the period to 31 December 2024 (2023: Surplus £52,070). Total funds as at 31 December 2024 were £171,079 (2023: £178,090).

Reserves policy

The Society consider it essential that they retain one years running costs of two shows, which they estimate will probably be in the region of £200,000 in the future. This amount will cover the Society's operating costs for twelve months. At 31 December 2024 there were unrestricted reserves of £1XXXXX, meaning the charity has not achieved its reserves policy target.

We are mindful that many societies have sadly ceased to exist due to the escalating costs of rehearsal rooms, theatres and royalties. DarlingtonOS is actively taking steps to address these challenges, ensuring that we remain resilient and sustainable. At the same time we are committed to reaching new audiences and broadening our community engagement. Future productions will be carefully considered with these aims in mind, balancing artistic ambition with financial responsibility. Together these efforts will help secure the long-term success of DarlingtonOS and ensure that our productions continue to inspire and entertain for years to come.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Government grants are recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the income, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.

Current asset investments

Current assets investments are deposit bonds. These are held for investment purposes rather than to meet short-term cash commitments as they fall due. The bonds are measured at the cash value on deposit.
