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

As set out in the charity's governing document the charity's objectives are:

To promote, maintain, improve, and advance public education, appreciation and understanding of the arts, particularly by the formulation, preparation, establishment and production of educational plays, festivals and production.

The principal activity of the charity is a theatre company. The charity uses the medium of drama to educate young people about social issues which directly affect their lives.

Public benefit

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Prime continued to rebuild after Covid-19 with a varied and vibrant mix of theatre for/with/by children and young people. In our 4th year as a National Good Practice Centre for Arts Award qualifications, we widened our strand of combined arts activity with other organisations and artists.

We were grateful to a wide range of supporters, especially Arts Council England who remained our largest funder as part of its 2022-23 National Portfolio.

2022-23 secured more funds from Swindon Borough Council's Childrens Services to train, educate and mentor priority groups: Care Leavers, Looked After Children, Youth Justice groups, Disabled Young People and those Not in Education, Employment or Training (NEET). 1000+ young people enjoyed a series of developmental projects, 1-2-1 mentoring and Arts Award qualifications at all levels - introductory to university entry point. We're pleased to be in strategic partnership with the local authority when many other councils are withdrawing income for creative and cultural activities. Our work together makes a huge difference to the younger generations of our town, present and future.

Professional productions:

Youth productions and theatre training:

Education and Community Programme:

Access for All:

-We continued to provide free and discounted access to our programmes thanks to a multiplicity of trusts and foundations

-Wiltshire Community Fund continued to support our Young Arts Leaders building leadership skills and youth voice - We used our Levelling Up grant purchases to deliver free activities with our new Arts Award van and creative/technical resources

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2023

In November of 2022 year we were reappointed to the National Portfolio for 2023-26, with a remarkable 135% uplift in funds. This was a testament to the programmes we offer and the strategic plans we offered in our application. Prime staff and trustees remain committed to the development and diversity of Swindon's children. We know that with care, creativity & confidence our young people can overcome our town's many economic and cultural challenges. It's a pleasure to serve them.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position

At 31 March 2023, total funds were £418,063.

Prime ended the financial year 2022-23 with a large amount of Restricted Funds of £86,492 that were secured to deliver key projects. These funds will be spent as planned and in accordance with funding agreements.

Designated Funds remain held at agreed levels to meet any appropriate redundancy costs and fees related to any business closure.

Reserves policy

The trustees are committed to building reserves that would enable the charity to fulfil its obligations, statutory and otherwise, in the event of a cessation of operations. At 31 March 2023 the trustees had designated funds of £75,000 to meet this objective. A designated fund of £15,000 has also been made for emergency replacement of equipment and programming contingency. Total unrestricted funds were £331,571 which includes £128,168 of tangible fixed assets. The amount of free reserves held (excluding restricted funds, designated funds and tangible fixed assets) are £113,403. These funds are in excess of our policy. The trustees acknowledge that with the proposed development of a new cultural quarter in Swindon the charity may need to move premises. These excess reserves will allow the charity to cover the financial costs of any move.

Going concern

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern.

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.

Organisational structure

Day to day management of the charity's affairs is delegate to the Management Team, comprising professional advisors and administrators.

Induction and training of new trustees

The charity provides an induction pack and appropriate training for new trustees.

Risk management

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.

In satisfaction of this responsibility, the charity has prepared a Three Year Plan that identifies issues, many of them financial, which might impair the fulfilment of the charity's objectives, unless countered successfully. The Three Year Plan is reviewed annually.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Prime Theatre

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Prime Theatre ('the Company')

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

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.

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:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  2. 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

  3. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern.

Financial reporting standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions

The charity has taken exemption from preparing a cash flow statement under the charities SORP (FRS 102) as the charity constitutes a small charity.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

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.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, 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 accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Stage and office equipment - 20% on straight line basis Motor vehicles - 20% on straight line basis
