THE UK PANTOMIME ASSOCIATION
Trustees' Report
During the period 1 May 2024 to 30 April 2025, the Trustees of The UK Pantomime Association oversaw a year of sustained and expanding activity in support of the charity's aims to explore, share and celebrate pantomime as an important British artform. Throughout the year, the Association worked to advance public education, celebrate excellence within the sector, support professional practice and champion pantomime's cultural, historical and contemporary significance.
The charity's principal activity during the year remained the delivery of the Pantomime Awards, supported by an increasingly visible role in sector development, heritage recognition and practitioner engagement. In June 2024, the Association presented the Pantomime Awards 2024 at G Live, Guildford, recognising work created during the 2023-24 pantomime season. The ceremony celebrated excellence in performance, writing, design, direction, music and production, and continued to strengthen the profile of pantomime as a dynamic and evolving professional practice.
The majority of the charity's work during the reporting period focused on the Pantomime Awards 2025. This included the recruitment, coordination and training of a national panel of 52 volunteer judges, who collectively visited 216 venues across the United Kingdom to see over 496 performances between November 2024 and January 2025. For the first time, the Awards also included queer, alternative and adult pantomimes, recognising the breadth, diversity and creative evolution of the form and ensuring that the Awards reflected the full spectrum of contemporary pantomime practice. Nominations were announced in March 2025, and the awards ceremony was held on 13 April 2025 at the New Victoria Theatre, Woking. Delivery of the event was supported through a new partnership with Trafalgar Entertainment and ATG Entertainment, announced in February 2025, which strengthened the Association's operational capacity and increased the national reach of the awards.
The Pantomime Awards 2025 generated substantial national, regional and specialist media coverage, significantly extending the charity's public reach and reinforcing pantomime's cultural visibility across the United Kingdom. Coverage began with the announcement of the Awards' partnership with Trafalgar Entertainment and ATG Entertainment and continued through nominations, the ceremony itself and post-awards reporting. The Awards were covered extensively by leading theatre and cultural publications including The Stage, What'sOnStage, Broadway World and Theatre Weekly, alongside national and regional broadcast media such as BBC Radio 2, BBC regional radio networks and BBC News Online. In addition, a wide range of regional and local news outlets across England, Scotland and Wales reported on nominations and winners from their areas, ensuring geographically broad engagement and highlighting the diversity of pantomime practice nationwide. This sustained press activity demonstrated strong public interest in pantomime, amplified recognition of practitioners and venues beyond award recipients alone, and supported the charity's objective to advance public understanding and appreciation of pantomime as a significant and living British theatrical tradition.
During this period, the Association expanded its public engagement through significantly increased social media activity. Following the close of the pantomime season, the UKPA undertook a structured programme of digital promotion designed to spotlight individual productions across the UK using companies' production photography. This enhanced visibility widened recognition beyond nominated or award-winning shows, celebrated diverse artistic practice across the sector and increased audience engagement. As a result, the organisation saw strengthened online reach and deeper connection with practitioners, venues and the wider public, reinforcing its role as a year round advocate for pantomime.
The Trustees also approved the creation of a new award category, the Nigel Ellacott Special Recognition Award for Pantomime History, Tradition and Heritage, established in memory of Nigel Ellacott, who passed away in 2024. This award recognises significant contributions to the preservation and development of pantomime's traditions and heritage, and its introduction reflects the Association's ongoing commitment to historical awareness, legacy protection and educational outreach alongside contemporary practice.

THE UK PANTOMIME ASSOCIATION
Trustees' Report
In September 2024, the Association delivered its inaugural specialist sector event, "Relaxed and Accessible Pantomime Performance", at The North Wall Theatre, Oxford. This special event, hoped to be an annual feature encompassing a different theme each year, explored key strategies, challenges and innovations in making pantomime performances more accessible for a diverse range of audiences, with a particular focus on relaxed performances for audience members with disabilities and other access needs. The session examined inclusive approaches to staging, front of house protocols, sensory considerations, performer preparation and organisational culture. Following the panel discussion, delegates were invited to participate in a networking session accompanied by light refreshments, providing opportunities to connect with colleagues, share practice and develop new partnerships within the industry. As a direct outcome of this event, a Best Practice Resource was produced and made freely available on the UKPA website, ensuring that the insights shared could support venues and practitioners nationwide.
Alongside this work, the Association continued its advocacy on a national level. During the reporting period, the UKPA engaged regularly with the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) regarding the UK's potential ratification of the UNESCO Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage. The Association was asked to provide images for government presentation briefings, reflecting growing recognition of pantomime's cultural importance. The Trustees emphasised that pantomime is intrinsic to British society, culture and identity and deserves not only to be officially recognised as such, but also protected within the framework of the UNESCO convention.
In July 2024, the Association contributed to a panel entitled 'Panto Will Save the World' at The Children's Media Conference in Sheffield, extending its educational and public engagement work. Christmas also continued to be a particularly active period, with the Association responding to numerous requests from BBC regional radio stations, offering commentary and raising awareness of pantomime during its busiest and most visible time of year.
Throughout the year, the Trustees ensured that all activities were delivered in furtherance of the Association's charitable objects and provided clear public benefit by promoting an accessible and widely enjoyed theatrical tradition, celebrating artistic excellence, encouraging inclusive and innovative practice and increasing public understanding of pantomime's cultural and historical significance. The Trustees believe that the achievements of the reporting period demonstrate the continued development of the UK Pantomime Association as a national charity, with strengthened visibility, partnerships and sector leadership. The foundations laid during this period will support further growth in the years ahead and reinforce the Association's role as a champion of pantomime across the United Kingdom.
Relationship with Sponsors & Benefactors
The Trust continues to operate under a three-year partnership with The Trafalgar Entertainment Group (TEG) to host The Pantomime Awards annually at one of its theatres and TEG-owned Stagecoach agreed to be headline sponsor for The Pantomime Awards in June 2024. Other ongoing sponsors include Barry Burnett, Scott Mitchell, Breckman & Company, Howden Insurance Brokers, Production Light and Sound, and John Good Ltd. The Trust is grateful for the support of Greg Dyke and Caroline Elsey as Benefactors.
Reserves policy and risk management
The Trustees regularly review the risks faced by the charity to enable steps to be taken to lessen such risks.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of THE UK PANTOMIME ASSOCIATION
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 30 April 2025, which are set out on pages 7 to 16.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
· to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities
have not been met; or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

THE UK PANTOMIME ASSOCIATION
Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 April 2025
1. Accounting policies
1.1. Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (issued in October 2019) 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) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)).
The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).
1.2. Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis.
The charity is dependent on the continued support of sponsors and donors. The trustees believe that the company will continue to receive this support and accordingly consider that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis.
1.3. Incoming resources
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when:
-
the charity is legally entitled to the funds
-
any performance conditions attached to the income have been met or are fully within the control of the charity
-
there is sufficient certainty that receipt of the income is considered probable
-
the amount can be reliably measured
- Donations and legacies
Grants/donations are recognised in incoming resources in the year in which they are receivable, except as follows:
-
when donors specify that grants/donations given to the charity must be used in future accounting periods, the income is deferred until those periods
-
when donors impose conditions which have to be fulfilled before the charity becomes entitled to use such income, the income is deferred and not included in incoming resources until the preconditions for use are met.

THE UK PANTOMIME ASSOCIATION
Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 30 April 2025
- Charitable activities
Theatre income - income from box office, performance fees and sundry other theatrical income is included in incoming resources in the period in which the relevant show takes place.
Project specific funding - when donors specify that donations and grants are for particular restricted purposes, which do not amount to pre-conditions regarding entitlement, this income is included in incoming resources of restricted funds when receivable.
- Donated services and facilities
Donated services or facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. On receipt, donated services and facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.
- Investment income
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.
1.4. Expenditure
All expenditure is included on an accruals basis inclusive of any VAT which cannot be recovered and is recognised when:
-
there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment
-
it is probable that settlement will be required
-
the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably
- Costs of raising funds
Costs incurred in attracting donations, and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.
- Charitable activities
Theatre production costs - costs incurred in production and running of productions toured in the year.
- Support costs
The administrative and overhead costs associated with running the office from which the company operates as well as governance costs. Support costs are wholly attributable to theatre production costs.
- Governance costs
Costs associated with the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity.
1.5. Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid after taking account of any trade discounts due.

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
1.7. Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

Dear Sirs
Letter of Representation
The following representations are made on the basis of enquiries of management and staff with relevant knowledge and experience such as we consider necessary in connection with your independent examination of the charity’s financial statements for the year ended 30 April 2025. These enquiries have included inspection of supporting documentation where appropriate and are sufficient to satisfy ourselves that we can make each of the following representations. All representations are made to the best of our knowledge and belief.
General
We acknowledge that the work performed by you is substantially less in scope than an audit performed in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) and that you do not express an audit opinion.
We confirm that the charity was entitled to exemption under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 the requirement to have its financial statements for the financial year ended 30 April 2024 audited.
We have fulfilled our responsibilities as trustees as set out in the terms of your engagement letter dated 30 November 2022, under the Charities Act 2011 for preparing financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view and for making accurate representations to you.
All the transactions undertaken by the charity have been properly reflected and recorded in the accounting records.
All the accounting records have been made available to you for the purpose of your independent examination. We have provided you with unrestricted access to all appropriate persons within the charity, and with all other records and related information requested, including minutes of all management and trustee meetings and correspondence with The Charity Commission.
The financial statements are free of material misstatements, including omissions.
Assets and liabilities
The charity has satisfactory title to all assets and there are no liens or encumbrances on the charitable company’s assets.
All actual liabilities, contingent liabilities and guarantees given to third parties have been recorded or disclosed as appropriate.
Docusign Envelope ID: 21C88312-7A2B-4140-9158-28F38A0812E0
We have no plans or intentions that may materially alter the carrying value and where relevant the fair value measurements or classification of assets and liabilities reflected in the financial statements.
Accounting estimates
Significant assumptions used by us in making accounting estimates, including those measured at fair value, are reasonable.
Loans and arrangements
The charity has not granted any advances or credits to, or made guarantees on behalf of, trustees.
Legal claims
No claims in connection with litigation have been, or are expected to be, received.
Law and regulations
There are no known instances of non-compliance or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations whose effects should be considered when preparing the financial statements.
Related parties
We are not aware of any transactions with related parties requiring disclosure in the financial statements.
Subsequent events
All events subsequent to the date of the financial statements which require adjustment or disclosure have been properly accounted for and disclosed.
Going concern
We believe that the charity’s financial statements should be prepared on a going concern basis on the grounds that current and future sources of funding or support will be more than adequate for the charity’s needs. We have considered a period of twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements. We believe that no further disclosures relating to the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern need to be made in the financial statements.
Yours faithfully
