Objectives and Activities
| SORP reference | ||
|---|---|---|
| Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document |
Para 1.17 | To advance the practice of British pipe organ building by such means as education, exchange of information and publications for the general benefit of the public and by providing opportunities for members of the public and young people to further their understanding capabilities, competences and skills in matters related to the craft; To promote the preservation of the crafts and traditional techniques used within British pipe organ building to the highest standard, recognised and awarded by the CIO in order to be the central organisation and association within the United Kingdom for continuance of the heritage and progressive craft of British pipe organ building in places of worship, private residencies, schools and public buildings. |
| 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 |
Publication of a journal available to purchase through our website, summarising the past year’s activity and trends in British organ building, alongside articles on a wide variety of organ building projects undertaken and other technical studies. The IBO includes a level of membership open to members of the public who are interested in the pipe organ. This level of membership is invited to all IBO meetings (other than the AGM) Exhibiting at events which are connected to the pipe organ, such as Choir Festivals and also online/inperson events with the Royal |
| College of Organists, is an important aspect of the IBO’s activities. The IBO organises a number of ‘meetings’ for its members, at which members of the public may attend as guests, in locations throughout the UK where recent work on the pipe organ has taken place. These venues remain open during the course of our visits which then often attract those members of the public visiting the building at the same time. One of the key objectives noted above is to advance education in the practise of British pipe organ building; work to bring about the first national apprenticeship scheme has continued, with a principal aim being to widen the reach to apprentices from all backgrounds/geographical areas. Regular training courses are also held which primarily are aimed at practising members and which ultimately will raise the standard of the craft in the UK. Another of the IBO’s objectives is to preserve the craftsmanship of organ building so we are active in working alongside members of the public within congregations throughout the UK in saving pipe organs from being destroyed by helping in the relocation from one venue to another (both within the UK and overseas). |

Para 1.20 | The international customer base of the annual journal continue to support and praise the quality of this publication. Public exhibition at the Three Choir Festival in Hereford, 23/7-30/7. This included a stand-alone organ for members of the public to play, a cutaway working model of the actions of an organ, and display boards highlighting members’ work. Two Trustees participated in the Royal College of Organists’ Winter Conference in February exploring various topics of interest to the large College membership. Involvement in our meetings at Waltham Abbey & Ponsbourne (Herts) and in Canterbury were extended to members of the public wherever possible. All venues remained open to the public whilst our meeting took place too. Throughout the year work was ongoing on the establishment of a national apprenticeship in organ building; An Open Day was held at the Building Crafts College in Stratford, London where potential apprentices onto the new apprenticeship had the opportunity to learn about how the course will be taught and the teaching environment where much f the training will be delivered. A joint Zoom webinar took place with a Dutch organ building firm about a project at a prominent city Town Hall. A wirework training course was held in the autumn for members to receive trainingon |
this specific skill within pipe organ building. We continued with work on the redundant organs service, assisting in the relocation of a number of organs throughout the year. The IBO had liaised with members of an organisation concerned about the height of organist benches as this effects the number of female organists within the UK.
