Trustees Annual Report for New Art Studio
Period 1[st] August 2024- July 31[st] 2025
Charity registration number: 1192463
Objectives and activities
The objectives of the Studio are to relieve distress of refugees and asylum seekers with mental health problems caused by the effects of trauma through the provision of art therapy programmes. New Art Studio offers exhibition opportunities as a way of raising awareness of and validating the lived experiences of refugees and asylum seekers.
New Art Studio provides refugees and asylum seekers a space to overcome trauma and rebuild their lives, led by experienced and qualified art psychotherapists, in a therapeutic art community, one day per week. Attendees are referred to NAS by the local council, or related charities such as Freedom from Torture. Our beneficiaries are referred to as Members, but the NAS is not a membership organisation, this is to reduce stigma. Our studio space is rented from Kentish Town Community Centre in Camden, London. Members create art at their own pace, attendance is monitored but not demanded, travel expenses are reimbursed and lunch is provided. The studio model is a therapeutic community where members develop a sense of belonging and are encouraged to assist one another. The Studio psychotherapists receive professional clinical supervision.
The Trustees have had regard to the guidance of the Charity Commission on the public benefit requirement of the charity and have understood the responsibilities and liabilities of being Trustees.
Achievements and Performance
The Directors’ Annual Report is available on the New Art Studio website, with more detail on the year’s activities.
New-Art-Studio-Annual-Report-2024-25.pdf
The Studio’s work mainly takes place inside our weekly space, where members have freedom to express themselves both in art and speech and support one another. Discussion is encouraged and the Studio philosophy includes external exhibiting to develop links with organisations, such as the Migration Museum.
NAS has a register of current members and we also welcome back previous members and their families at community events; in this way the Studio supports over 30 refugees. Our clinical process takes therapeutic time and care, as per our philosophy, since these individuals are struggling with serious trauma. In this reporting period, a qualified volunteer attended the group periodically, making good connection with the members during the main session alongside the two lead Psychotherapists.
The Autumn term was our last at Islington Arts Factory and the New Year started with relocating to Kentish Town Community Centre, a welcoming space with excellent facilities. All members have commented positively on the change.

In January 2025 the Peer Led Group started as a second weekly session, practising art with more independence and evolving into becoming more self-directed and supportive. NAS was funded over 2 years by The National Lottery Community Fund for this extension of service project. Increasing agency of the members in this group is an important goal, with responsibilities of preparing food, setting out required materials etc. Members have led planning of sessions to enable those with specific art skills teaching others. There is oversight by a qualified therapist, who follows the group dynamics, whilst enabling members to work out discussions together.
In Refugee Week this year we opened the Studio to welcome public and other friends to come and make art together.
‘It was amazing to have people come to our new studio and see my and others’ art - they loved it. This was the first time I showed my artwork. It made me feel proud.’
Other external events included attending a screening at the Maritime Museum, having members volunteer at ZSL, and arranging for some of the group to take their artwork to an outdoor market called Exchange Community in North Paddington, to understand where creative people can find opportunities from which refugees are often excluded.
Within studio management, the new role demarcation has been working well and NAS now operates with the Director, Jasmin Topalusic and Deputy Director Ruanna Brook assisted by Leidy Moreno. In order to maintain the Budget Trustees decided to restrict the number of working weeks to 35, fitting within the school timetable.
During this period, the Director and Deputy supervised a Psychotherapy Masters student and a qualified therapist volunteer in the Therapeutic studio. Volunteer hours this year are not accounted for ‘in kind’ as they have not replaced a paid therapist.
Financial Review
On 31[st] July 2025 the current assets held in cash and at the bank were £14,360. Funds carried forward net of liabilities are £12,480. The income during FY23-24 was £39,140 as listed below. New Art Studio started the FY with reserves of £18,734.
The main item of expenditure is on salaries and this was around the same as the previous year whilst maintaining the additional days agreed for administrative work such as referrals. The part time fundraiser was paid £3,400 out of this total. New Art Studio has no debts and £1880 is accrued to cover late invoiced items.

Grants were received from the National Lottery Community Fund (provided for service extension), the Hilden Charitable Fund, the Hillcote Charitable Trust, the Mbili Charitable Trust, the Peter Stebbings Memorial Charity and the City Bridge Foundation. No grants or contracts were received from the Government or Local Authority.
The reserves, being unrestricted funds, will continue to be spent on the operating costs of the studio. The Trustees will aim to hold reserves equivalent to 2 months operation at all times, to allow lag time for grant applications and in the worst-case scenario, a closure could be planned with care for the members.
As income for the FY 24-25 has exceeded £25,000, Trustees have appointed Paul Metharam from B&M Accountancy Ltd as independent examiner and are satisfied that he has the requisite ability and practical experience to carry out a competent examination.
Plans for Future Periods
The New Art Studio will continue to operate for as long as funds will allow. The Peer- Led group is designed for longer standing members to move into a supported art-making group with more agency and then will allow an adjustment of the main therapeutic group to provide some further places for new members in due course. The additional costs of the Peer Led group will be monitored. New Art Studio receives many referrals and has a waiting list and it is clear there is a serious need for this service.
Structure, Governance and Management
The New Art Studio is a registered charity (CIO) in England and all operations and contracts are in this name and its governing document is the Constitution approved on 17[th] November 2020. NAS is delighted that Evie Lingwood has joined the Trustees, bringing our total to five. Trustees, together with the Co-Directors, hold management meetings each half-term and additionally have two Trustees meetings per year. Trustees continue to revise the management systems. The Safeguarding policy is updated twice a year; the next review is due in January 2026. There is a safeguarding standing agenda item for each management committee meeting which has utmost priority given our service is involved in the care of vulnerable adults.
All contracted therapists have monthly clinical supervision with an experienced professional. In turn, they provide supervision to the volunteer and are gaining professional development in this role. The Director, Deputy and Peer Led Group therapist attended workshops with the Institute of Group Analysis during the summer break.
Trustees are unpaid volunteers who perform administrative duties for this small charity such as accounts and policy writing. Trustees do not receive expenses for attending meetings or for performing functions for the studio. They may be reimbursed in some circumstances if a Trustee were to pay for an item of running costs when unable to use the NAS bank account.
Trustees are aware that funding is the main ongoing issue for the Studio. Trustees have ensured that in its financial management, the activities it undertakes and contracts entered into, the Studio is not exposed to liabilities it cannot meet.
