|Summary of the purposes of<br>the charity as set out in its<br>governing document|Para 1.17|**To promote and advance the eduction of**<br>**the public by encouraging the**<br>**understanding, appreciation and**<br>**development of contemporary classical**<br>**music and in particular by the promotion**<br>**of concerts and workshops.**|
|Summary of the main<br>activities in relation to those<br>purposes for the public<br>benefit, in particular, the<br>activities, projects or services<br>identified in the accounts.|Para 1.17 and<br>1.19|**Presenting an annual public concert**<br>**series, lunchtime and evening, featuring**<br>**primarily 20th and 21st century classical**<br>**music (ie, contemporary classical),**<br>**especially from living composers, and**<br>**including a short educational talk or**<br>**interview at each evening concert.**<br>**Running educational workshops for**<br>**young composers, and presenting a**<br>**selection of their work in public concerts**<br>**performed by professional musicians.**|
|Statement confirming<br>whether the trustees have<br>had regard to the guidance<br>issued by the Charity<br>Commission on public<br>benefit|Para 1.18|**The benefit arising from the concert**<br>**series is wider hearing and appreciation**<br>**of a still-undervalued genre of modern**<br>**music. The benefit arising from the**<br>**workshops is enhanced training of young**<br>**composers by experienced composers,**<br>**and public presentation and appreciation**<br>**of their new work. No harm can come of**<br>**any of these activities. The ultimate**<br>**beneficiaries of both activities are**<br>**members of the general public. No private**<br>**benefit arises from these activities.**<br>**The benefits are evidenced by good**<br>**reports in feedback forms returned by the**<br>**audience, and the enthusiasm of the**<br>**young composers about the workshops**<br>**and good attendance at the resulting**<br>**concerts.**|

## **Financial Review** 

|Review of the charity’s<br>financial position at the end<br>of the period|Para 1.21|**At the end of the period the charity was**<br>**significantly in credit, partly because the**<br>**concert series spans two financial years**<br>**(2021 and 2022), and because some 2021**<br>**expenditure was deferred until 2022**<br>**because of the delays imposed by Covid**<br>**restrictions.**|

For**<br>**instance, the charity is not responsible**<br>**for repairs or property maintenance since**<br>**it owns no property. Its concerts and**<br>**workshops take place at venues owned**<br>**and maintained by others, hired at a**<br>**previously-agreed rate.**|
