## **Charitable Status**
Hereford Musical Theatre Company is a Registered Charity (Number: 511315), which is an unincorporated association.
## **Governing Document**
Constitution of 1898 as amended on 24 February 1981 and 13 March 2007.
## **Trustees**
Mr Paul Morris Mrs Nicolette Willett
The Trustees are appointed by the executive committee.
## **Governance**
Membership of Hereford Musical Theatre Company is open to all those over the age of sixteen years having sympathy with the objects of the society and desiring actively to further it and who pay the annual subscription as appropriate. The annual subscription is determined by the Executive Committee and agreed by the members at the Annual General Meeting.
In accordance with the constitution, the Executive Committee is elected by the members at the Annual General Meeting. It meets regularly throughout the year (normally once a month) and has responsibility for the day to day running of the society, and its financial and legal responsibilities.
## **Charitable Objects**
To educate the public in the dramatic and operatic arts and to further the development of public appreciation and taste in the said arts.
## **Activities**
To this end, HMTC aims to present a variety of full-scale musical theatre productions, considering the suitability and marketability of each. There may be some variation from year to year, but our normal output includes:
- one show at Hereford’s Courtyard Theatre, usually in November;
- one show at our own Tomkins Theatre, usually in the late spring or early summer;
- a concert of seasonal music at the Tomkins Theatre, in December.
We run an active youth section for young people aged between eight and sixteen, which meets regularly on Sundays during term time. The youth section normally presents its own production(s) each year – either an appropriate full-scale musical or a specific junior version, and/or a concert performance enabling as many as possible to perform. The young people also have the opportunity to participate in the main society productions, when there are roles for them.
Members who do not wish to perform on stage are encouraged to participate in productions in other roles, such as stage crew, props, wardrobe, makeup, front of house, hospitality, etc.
HMTC also runs social and fundraising activities, in order to encourage participation amongst members and to help fund major productions.
## **Annual Review**
For the fourth year in a row, we ended 2023 in a better financial position than we started it; indeed, it was our most profitable year, based on our own efforts, since 2017. Furthermore, having lost over £28,000 over 2018 and 2019, we finally surpassed the assets figure for 2017, putting us in the best financial position we have been in for many years, if not ever. It should also be noted that our final position is after making advance payments of over £1540 for 2024 productions.
Adult subs have remained fairly steady but, once again, 50 Club membership was down. Youth Group subs were up in 2023.
Our income from hire of the Tomkins Theatre dropped by nearly £800 last year but,
considering that one of our main hirers for several Yea stopped using the hall in the
summer. this was not unexpected. Our costs. especially for energy. continue to spiral. so
every hire helps.
Social/fundraising events help to add to the coffers. Thank you to everyone involved in
running or helping with one or more of these.
As for our 2023 produrtions, between the main company and the Youth Group, we had 5
main shows and concerts in 2023. all of which made a profrt- a fabulous resultl
We are grateful to everyone WIM) work5 hard on behalf of HMTC to enable us to continue to
do what we love doing- thank you.

## **HEREFORD MUSICAL THEATRE COMPANY INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER, 2023**
Report to the Trustees of Hereford Musical Theatre Company on the accounts for the year ended 31st December, 2023
## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner**
As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts; you consider that the audit requirement of section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act) does not apply. It is my responsibility to state, on the basis of procedures specified in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 43(7)(b) of the Act, whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **Basis of independent examiner's report**
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. 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, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
- (i) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material repect the requirements to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act; have not been met; or
- (ii) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
