Build Studios Limited

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2023

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2023. 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

Build Studios aims to inspire people about the built environment through collaboration and learning. The charitable objects are set out for the public benefit.

The objects are as follows:

A. To act as a resource for young people up to the age of 30 living in England by providing advice and assistance and organising programmes of educational and other activities, particularly but not exclusively on the themes of the built environment, architecture, design, construction, town planning, development, urban management, business and entrepreneurial skills and related disciplines, as a means of:

i) advancing in life and helping young people by developing their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as independent, mature and responsible individuals; ii) advancing education;

iii) relieving unemployment.

B. To promote the efficiency and effectiveness of charities and the effective use of charitable resources by providing charities (with a preference for those involved with the subject areas specified at A above) with office and/or meeting space on a non-commercial basis.

We deliver on our objectives by providing careers education and enrichment programmes within schools, including our flagship programme with Oasis Academy Southbank and sector themed events to develop young people's skills and understanding of issues impacting on the built environment. Through the co-working space operated by our trading arm Build Workspace.

We have curated a community of built environment patrons and practitioners. We use this network to recruit volunteers to speak with students or provide curricula on the varied professions and skills in the built environment. We also support other charities working in a similar capacity to us to facilitate workshops and building tours for young people. Our support to charities extends to the provision of free or heavily subsidised use of our space, including fixed desks and use of the events space.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Significant activities

In delivering our public benefit and social impact in 2023, Build Studios continued to develop its education and outreach activities for young people with an interest in the built environment sector.

Built environment careers enrichment.

Build Studios delivered a full year programme with all Year 7 students at Oasis Academy Southbank to learn about the range of careers in the built environment sector, using the new content developed in 2022. New teachers at the school were supported in delivering the content, and Build Studios arranged visits from volunteer professionals to talk about their work in the sector.

The interest generated by one of the speakers from a presentation on architecture and OpenBIM has inspired the development of a new digital design for sixth form pupils that will be piloted in 2024.

Number of attendees: 99 in half-termly groups.

Number of sessions: 14 Over 6 half terms

Gingerbread city

Following the trip for Year 7 pupils to the Museum of Architecture's Gingerbread City in 2022, Build Studios assembled a team of volunteers to create an entry to the 2023 exhibition at Westfield White City. Following a design day to test ideas, the Build Studios team assembled a gingerbread horticultural school - the 'Ice Pickle Academy' - at an assembly session, which was transported to and displayed at the exhibition.

Number of volunteers: 5

Alternative Practice

In 2023, Build Studios launched Alternative Practice, a new programme of events and activities for students and young workers. Alternative Practice is a community of young workers and students that are interested in challenging the boundaries of traditional built environment discipline. Our first event held in November was a great success in establishing a new network and explored different routes into and out of architectural practice, cross-sector collaborations and the limitations of architectural education in preparing students for work in the sector.

Number of attendees: 36

Number of volunteer speakers: 4

Making Space for Women

As part of the London Festival of Architecture, Build Studios collaborated with WeAreWaterloo, the Business Improvement District for the Waterloo area, to deliver a panel discussion on the proposed masterplan for Waterloo Station. Utilising our links with local educational institutions and local authorities, we platformed younger speakers on the project teams on an all-female panel.

Number of attendees: 40

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Affordable space for charities

In 2023, Build Studios provided desk space for two charity workers in the built environment sector, alongside making meeting room and event space available free of charge for other non-built environment specific charities.

Public benefit

Build Studios aims to inspire people about the built environment through collaboration and learning. The charitable objects are set out for the public benefit.

A. To act as a resource for young people up to the age of 30 living in England by providing advice and assistance and organising programmes of educational and other activities, particularly but not exclusively on the themes of the built environment, architecture, design, construction, town planning, development, urban management, business and entrepreneurial skills and related disciplines, as a means of:

i) advancing in life and helping young people by developing their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as independent, mature and responsible individuals;

ii) advancing education;

iii) relieving unemployment.

B. To promote the efficiency and effectiveness of charities and the effective use of charitable resources by providing charities (with a preference for those involved with the subject areas specified at A above) with office and/or meeting space on a non-commercial basis.

Volunteers

It is a condition of the provision of non commercial space at Build Studios that the individuals assist with our other charitable activities, particularly supporting our careers enrichment work and outreach work.

Sixteen volunteers participated in our charitable activities in 2023, recruited from the workspace as well as our wider networks. Their support included presenting to young people about their jobs and career paths and speaking at our outreach and public facing events.

Our volunteers are briefed about safeguarding issues with young people and are always accompanied throughout their visit to our partner schools or other sessions in line with our policies. All member of the Build Studios team that work with young people in schools have full DBS clearance.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position

The charity's accounts show a steady financial position for the year and a small year-end profit. The second year of operation focused on refining the systems in place to manage the relationship with the trading subsidiary, including ensuring that Build Studios' core operating and facilities management costs were reimbursed by the trading subsidiary.

The majority of Build Studios' funds for the year in question were unrestricted funds generated by its trading subsidiary, Build Workspace.

A fundraising and growth plan is also being developed for the charity to support our efforts in generating additional project funding from charitable grant giving bodies and other sources of funding, such as the local authority.

Build Studios' balance sheet shows a reserve of £39,996.00, The company has now met its target essential reserves (see reserves policy) of £38,000.

Reserves policy

The reserves policy is formed under the consideration of potential scenarios that would influence Build Studios' need to hold reserves and the amount of reserves that would be appropriate to cover these scenarios.

The main requirements for holding reserves by Build Studios are to cover the following:

  1. Unforeseen operational costs; in particular relating to sudden loss of income from Build Workspace (Build Studios' trading subsidiary and affordable workspace provider) as a result of e.g. any future office shut-downs due to emergencies - e.g. urgent/emergency building maintenance. This risk level associated with this scenario is classified as medium and the reserve target is £38,000. This is based on 3 months' operational costs.

  2. Emergency or unexpected capital costs relating to the maintenance of Build Studios' premises that are not covered by the landlord's obligations. This risk level associated with this scenario is classified as low and the reserve target is £5,000. This target is based on the current condition of the building which remains very good as the space is 7 years old.

  3. Planned activities that cannot be met by future income alone; in particular match-funding for future grant applications for expanding to additional sites. This has a reserve target of £20,000 and remains an aspirational one considered in the aspiration to expand Build Studios to additional sites. Without a reserve target being reached, expansion will depend largely on grant funding and/or loan finance.

Build Studios' current reserves are: £39,996.00

The company has now met its target essential reserves of £38,000. We will now seek to raise our target aspirational reserves of £20,000 in line with our reserves policy. We will be reviewing the timescale for achieving this aspirational element in 2024 when we will be reviewing our growth plans for the next 5 years. This will ensure that the timescale is appropriate and achievable.

FUTURE PLANS

In 2024, Build Studios will aim to expand its engagement activity with older pupils, in particular following positive feedback to a presentation on OpenBID and digital design delivered as part of our careers enrichment programme. This will involve working with a small group of sixth form students on a real-life site to develop a digital design with support from volunteer professionals, including planners, developers and construction managers.

Following the successful launch of Alternative Practice, we will also develop this engagement with students and young workers, supporting them to navigate their further study and entry into the sector. We will also use these networks to engage with developers and the property sector more widely to introduce young people to diverse career opportunities, centring participation and leadership of the content on the young people themselves.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

Build Studios is governed by a voluntary board of trustees/directors. Build Workspace has a separate, independent board. There is some representation on the Build Workspace board by Trustees from Build Studios to ensure good communication and collaboration across the two organisations. However, there is sufficient separation to ensure quorate decisions can be made by non-conflicted directors.

Trustees are selected from an open advertisement via Build Studios' public channels (website, social media and newsletters). There is no maximum term, but the third longest serving trustees must retire by rotation at each AGM. They may stand for re-election by the company members if they wish. The Trustee is selected based upon their suitability to the role description. The trustees' induction includes a briefing on the structure of the organisation, the Articles of Association and charitable objects, as well as our policies including conflicts of interest.

Related parties

Build Studios Limited has a management agreement with Build Workspace Limited , which enables it to receive the following income:

This income enables Build Studios to cover core costs and to fund the management of the charity and delivery of its projects, as well as a small marketing and communication budget. This enables Build Studios to run its core careers enrichment programme, outreach and engagement work, and to provide workspace and events space at a discounted rate to charities.

Alongside the income from the trading subsidiary, the charity will need to fundraise from external grant sources for delivery costs for new projects.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Build Studios Limited ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2023.

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or
