Trustees’ Annual Report for the period
From 1[st] June 2022 To 31[st] August 2023
Charity name: The Guild of Enamellers
Charity registration number: 1196237
Objectives and Activities
The Guild’s objectives are
- to further the preservation, skill, excellence and improvement of craftsmanship in vitreous enamelling for the benefit of the public, and
2. to advance public education in such craftsmanship.
The activities that have been carried out since June 2022 in support of these objectives are
-
Annual conference – April 2023
-
Regional work shops
-
On-line workshops
-
The quarterly journal
-
Web site – short tutorials, articles added.
-
Bursary Award 2023
More detail is given on each of these in the following section. Membership of the guild of enamellers is open to any member of the public who is interested in vitreous enamelling so all of these activities are aligned with the requirement that the Guild must operate for the public benefit. The trustees are fully aware of the guidance from the Charity Commission with regard to operating for public benefit.
The Guild is run by an enthusiastic volunteer community, the two principle components are the Regional Representatives who co-ordinate activities with in their regions, and the Executive Committee who are responsible for overseeing Guild activities.
Achievements and Performance
Annual conference – April 2023
The annual conference was held in Stirling University and was attended by 72 Guild members. The attendees benefited from recognised experts in the field of vitreous enamelling who gave their time to deliver a master class in enamel painting and seven workshops. The workshops covered the following subjects
-
Mastering the Technique of Chasing for Beginners
-
Painting in Enamel
-
Hard and Soft Enamels
-
Experimental Enamel: Introducing Rust
-
3D pictures in Enamel
-
Exploring the use of Fine Silver wires in Cloisonné
-
Silversmithing for Enamel
The master class was also made available over Zoom for people who were unable to attend the conference in person. In many cases people who attended the conference went on to deliver the same workshop in their local regions thus meeting the Guild’s second objective to advance public education in vitreous enamelling.
Regional work shops
- Regions 1 and 2
Regions 1 and 2 are no longer run together but are now separate regions led By Dorothy Cockrell and Heather Croft respectively.
The Cumbria group have continued to run self led workshops and have made good use of the additional kiln transferred from Glasgow.
- Region 3 and 4
Workshops run about once a month and have covered the following topics: Making copper flowers, Plique a Jour, Hard and Soft enamels, Painting enamel techniques - Flowers on an enamel background, Wet Processing, High Firing and Using Tin solder in Enamelling
- Region 5
Members of Region 5 have met once this year. Face to face meetings continue to be a challenge because of the distances between members.
- Region 6
Region 6 have run workshops on Screen Printing and Colour Blending.
Region 7
Region 7 have have also run many more face to face workshops this year, including: Using decals with colour, Separation enamel, Everlasting Flowers, Have a Go and painting enamel Q&A, Sunlight Screens
Region 8
Region 8 do not run workshops but join and help to co-ordinate online workshops which benefit many who still feel uncomfortable with meeting in person or who cannot travel.
Web site
The web site continues to evolve as the Guild finds more ways to reach people who are interested in enamelling. The Guild’s master classes are now available to Guild members through the web site.
Bursary award 2023
The 2023 Bursary was awarded to Sarah Wilmot. The Bursary is made possible by the generosity of our sponsors - Milton Bridge, Proops Brothers, Vitrum Signum, Harrison&Harrison, Corby Kilns and the British Society of Enamellers. For the 2024 Bursary we are delighted to welcome additional sponsorship from Cromartie Hobbycraft.
The Journal
The Guild continues to produce 4 issues of the Journal each year, these are sent to all members. The educational/instructional articles from the Journal have been added to the relevant section of the website.
Financial Review
Review of the charity’s fnancial position at the end of the period.
In reading this summary and looking at the accounts it should be noted that because we have changed the financial year end the accounting period was longer than usual – from 1[st] June 2022 to August the 31[st] 2023 (15 months).
The Guild’s financial position at the end of the accounting period (August 31[st ] 2023) is healthy. The primary source of income is still the annual membership fees, as a charity we are able to recover Gift Aid on these. We strongly encourage all members to complete a Gift Aid form (if they are eligible) when renewing membership as this helps us to maintain membership fees at the current level.
The 2023 conference made a small profit of £626.5. Conferences will continue to be priced to break even.
Executive committee meetings have continued to be carried out over Zoom this year resulting in further saving in travel expenses. It is expected that one of the three meetings will be face to face in future.
DVD sales have again declined this year. DVDs will continue to be available as long as stocks last.
The Bursary fund continues to be sponsored by a number of companies (see above) – but all in the form of vouchers. The only external cash sponsor for the Bursary prize is the British Society of Enamellers who generously provide £300. The Guild matches this with the proceeds from the raffle held at conference - £350.
Policy on holding reserves
The Guild aims to hold sufficient reserves to be able to cover the cost of an annual conference. The conference is the Guild’s highest annual expenditure and highest risk item. In the event that we had to cancel a conference at short notice, it may be difficult to recover money that has already been committed to the venue.
The amount of reserves is held is: £40743.96
Structure, Governance and Management
The Guild’s governing document is the Constitution and the Guild is constituted as an Association CIO.
Trustees are voted in annually at the Guild’s AGM in accordance with section 13 in the constitution. It is expected that trustees will be members of the Executive Committee and will usually include the three chairs (vice, current and retiring) and the holders of the following positions:
-
Secretary
-
Treasurer
-
Membership Secretary
-
Webmaster
An additional trustee responsible for outreach is elected from one of the following positions:
-
Selection and awards secretary
-
Bursary secretary
-
Publicity officer
This position is currently held by the Awards and Selection secretary.
