Chlldren and Young People We believe that the arts are life-enhancing for children and young people, and that engagernenl Can enri¢h their wider learning.

Vegware compostable cups in our cafe. and self-closing tsps and an optimised water waste di8posal in all our toilets. MARKETING The imrnediale Challenge for markeb'ng and indeed for programming in 2021-22 was to rebuild audiences lo their pre-pandemic levels. So far this has not proved sporadic rather than lineady progressive. Panto sales. for example, Ornicron nolthStanding, reached 90 /0 ol their 2019 level although overall allendances for the fourth quarter onty reached 700/0 ol their five-year pre-covid average, much of the decline being seen in cinema audiences. More work still will be required lo re-build our membership base. On 31st March 2022 there were 3094 membecs, compared with 3828 fv40 years earlier. The planned inlroduclK)n of a dedicated cinema membership will tackle some of this decline. Even though there has a been a relum to print marketing throughout the industry the progress made in our digital strategy both pre- and during Covid was reiained and built upon in 2022-3. The department needs to retsin and consolidats these new skills and a challenge will be to recruit or train to this level.

For the year ahead, technical challenges will be faced developing our systems - box office, website and mobile app- lo ensure we provide a consistent customer experience across all thr¢e. PRICING Prlcing is a challenge and 15 sel to remain so throughout 2022-23. Remaining attractively priced al a lime when the cost of living is risirlg is an obvious concern for venues but there is ongoing pressure Irom producers and promoters lo lever increases due to inflationary pressure. This is then matched by subsequont pressur8 to discount if shows sell fewer lickels than expected. Decisions on pricing are thus often quite finely balanced and are likely lo remain $0. INVESTMENT POWERS AND POLICIES Apart from the need io relain restricted reserves, the trustees have unrestricted investment powers. H8ving regard lo the liquidity requirements of the Ihealres, to the need to miligale investment risk and lo the reserves policy the trijslees have operated a policy of keeping funds surplus to immediate requirements in interest bearing deposit accounts and fixed asset inveslmenls. GOING CONCERN After making appropriate enquiries, tho Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequale resources to continue in operational existence for Ihe foreseeable future. For this aSOn they continue to adopt the going concem basis in p¥eparing the financial slalemenls. Further ¢Jelails regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be fourid in the Accounting Policies {Note 2.21. FINANCIAL REVIEW The year under review produced a deficit in unrestricted funrjs of £121.047 compared with a surplus of £256,863 last year.

RESERVES POLICY Maintaining a sustsin8ble level of reserves remains a prime considgralion for the organisation going forward. The level of grants receivable remains under pressure. leading to more and more of our crealNe output being generated from our own ttading income. Looking forward, we need lo continue lo balance the qyality of our product with the funtjs available whilst also seeking to secure other sustainable funding sources. Having regard to Ihe economic situation. the Trustees believe that an appropriate level ol reserves wtsuld be approximately three months overhead expenditure which is currently ¢irca £ 570,000. At 31 March 2022. free reservos amounted lo £1,198.454 after making a deficit for the finoncial year 202112022 of £121,047. Page 7
