TRUSTEES' REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

The Trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's constitution, the Charities Act 2011 and "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

The Society is devoted to the preservation and improvement of the art, design and craft of contemporary bookbinding through the encouragement, exercise and maintenance of standards, and the promotion of public interest in the art, design and craft of contemporary bookbinding.

Public benefit

The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

Achievements and performance

Activities:

The Society published its annual edition of ‘The New Bookbinder’ journal which has subscribers around the world. Each quarter a newsletter (2 printed and 2 electronic) with news, illustrated articles on bookbinding, and course and training information, was sent to all members. DB E-Bulletins to members continued to post regular news and information.

The Designer Bookbinders website was used for workshop bookings and for publication sales. The website and social media were used to publicise to the general public news, events, and courses.

Exhibitions: ‘GHI’ an exhibition of DB Fellow and Licentiate Bindings, at Maggs Bros in Central London and online, continued until 13 January 2023. The DB International Competition 2022 Exhibition completed its tour at the University of Edinburgh Library in February 2023. An exhibition ‘Stones: Ten Bindings’ of sculptural bindings by former DB Fellow Faith Shannon MBE was the first in a series of exhibitions to be held in partnership with the Crafts Council at the Crafts Council Gallery. An exhibition of Associate members’ bindings of Philip Smith’s “The Book: Art and Object” (donated to DB by Philip’s son) was displayed at the spring AGM and Spring Meeting, alongside a suppliers’ fair and an illustrated talk by Susie Leiper and Susan Hufton (Fellows of the Society of Scribes and Illuminators).

The DBUK Competition 2023 prize-giving and exhibition of entrants’ bindings were held at Maggs Bros in central London. The Competition is generously supported by the Folio Society who provided books in sheets of ‘Love Poems’ edited by Imtiaz Dharker.

International Booker Prize 2023: six DB Fellows bound copies of the short-listed books. The bindings were exhibited and presented to the authors at the awards ceremony in October. DB had a stand selling publications and a display of Fellows and Licentiate bindings at the Fine Press Book Fair Oxford in December.

Fellow James Brockman was awarded the MBE for Services to Bookbinding in King Charles’ 2023 birthday honours.

Former Licentiate, Hannah Brown, was awarded Fellowship of DB in February 2023.

DESIGNER BOOKBINDERS

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

Education:

In February one new applicant was elected to the Licentiateship Scheme. With generous funding from the Clothworkers Foundation DB was able to award bursary funding to each of the six Licentiates in 2023 to support course and mentoring costs.

Six DB/SoB Joint Workshops (for all levels) were held during the year and one Masterclass (for advanced learners). Bursaries of £100 were awarded to enable binders to attend. A talk and binding workshop for the Folio Society and introductory workshops at Edinburgh University Library also took place during 2023.

Transferring Design: this project has a brief to promote bookbinding and bookbinding tuition to graphic design students, with the ultimate aim of increasing the number of students taking up the craft and entering the profession. The Printing Charity have provided generous support and funding. During 2023 DB Fellows taught TD sessions at Lincoln College of Art, Bath Spa University, and Glasgow School of Art to over 300 students and also taught sessions to college staff. Fellows also provided tuition in bookbinding and gold finishing for conservators and bookbinding students at West Dean College.

Financial review

The deficit on our activities was £8,508 (2022 - £18,101, as restated), which was split £12,893 deficit to the general fund and £4,385 surplus to the restricted fund. Details of an adjustment made to the prior year figures can be found in note 19 of the accounts.

The total funds of the charity at the balance sheet date amounted to £38,446, which is made up of unrestricted funds of £28,475 and restricted funds of £9,971.

Going concern

The Trustees are satisfied that the Charity is viable as a going concern in the foreseeable future.

Budgetary Control:

The executive committee normally meets four times a year and at each meeting the Treasurer gives a full management report.

All projects have their own budget, which is closely monitored and then the actual expenditure is analysed after the project is at an end. Any interim requests for expenditure are not sanctioned without the agreement of both the Treasurer and the Executive Committee via email.

Reserves policy

The charity has no set policy on reserves although unallocated reserves equivalent to one year's subscription income is deemed prudent, which the charity is currently working towards. The Clothworkers’ Company annual donation is restricted for Licentiate funding, non-Licentiate bursaries, and tuition at West Dean College. The Printworkers annual donation is restricted for the Transferring Design teaching project.

Structure, governance and management

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes an unincorporated charity. Designer Bookbinders is a registered charitable trust (number 282018), and is constituted by the trust deed 3 May 1969 (amended 24 April 1999, 6 January 2017).

The Executive Committee is responsible for the execution of the policy and activities of the Society.

Independent examiner's statement

Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared financial statements in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn.

I understand that this has been done in order for financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

DESIGNER BOOKBINDERS

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Designer Bookbinders is a registered charity.

1.1 Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's [governing document], the Charities Act 2011, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "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). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a true and fair view. This departure has involved following the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

1.4 Income

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.5 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

1.6 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Plant and equipment 20% straight line Website 20% straight line

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.

1.7 Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).

1.8 Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition. Items held for distribution at no or nominal consideration are measured the lower of replacement cost and cost.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution.

1.9 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

DESIGNER BOOKBINDERS

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.10 Financial instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
