Strategic report
The following sections for achievements and performance and financial review form the strategic
report of the charity.
Achlevements and perforniance
Publlc beneflt report
From our company objects flow our organisational purpose which is "to create an east Belfast that is
thriving cultural hub; where the arts are valued, creativity is for everyone and people are connected
with each other and the wider world.. The different elements within our purpose are further broken
down into four Strategic Objectives as follows -
1. To improve equity of opportunity for people in east Belfast to engage with creative activities
2. To creale a variety of meaningful, open and inclusive opportunities for people in east Belfast to
explore creativity and connect with others
3. To celebrate the past, present and fijture of east Belfast:
4. To develop relationships that ensure the long-term stability of Eastside Arts and create investment
in the arts in east Belfast
During 2023124 we worked towards achieving our objectives in the following ways:
Objective 1: To improve equity of opportunity for people in east Belfast to engage with creative
activities
We have been developing our community engagement practice since Eastside Arts was fonned in
2016. and concluded that in order to provide more equitable access to the arts and creativity in east
Belfast, we needed mor8 information about the residents of this part of the city. We made an
ambitious application to the Paul Hamlyn Fund for 4-year funding in 2022 and were awarded a 4-year
grant of £317K for the 'Creativ8 Cltlzens. project in November of that year. This programme aims to
increase the eng agement in and impact of arts and creativity across east Belfast by non-traditional
arts audiences by increasing equty of access for everyone.
The first phase of the project was the Cuftural Research and Engagement Tender which was awarded
to Smith and Kent Consulting in June 2023. Over the period of 9 months they were asked to:
Create an asset map of the cultural. geographic, economic. social and sectoral assets of east

Eastside Arts
Company Limited by Guarantee
Trustees. Annual Report (Incorporating the Director's Report) {¢ontinued)
Year ended 31 March 2024
Belfast
Create a report detsiling who and why people engage. and don't engage, in culture and the arts in
east Belfast
Create an Impact Evaluation Framework for the 4-year project
Identification of a group of Delivery Partners interested in co-designing pilot creative programmes
Development and facilitation of a nelwork of Research Partners who are interested in cultural
regeneration and community engagement
In service of these goals, Smith and Kent:
Mapped over 200 assets in East Belfast
Spoke to 871 individuals across 87 engagement sessions which took place in shopping centres,
shops. cafes. a hairdresser. a leisure centre. parks. festivals, family fun days, pubs, social clubs.
sports clubs, churches. community centres and more.
Ran a social media campaign asking people what creative pastimes they enjoyed which received
182 social media response5 #ltsAIIGoneEast
Key points that we heard and learned from the research:
People are generally very proud of east Belfast although this became less so as the researchers
moved into more working-class communities.
The words 'culture" and 'arts" are barriers.
Whether people did art at school or were good at 'arty-stuff' as a child seems to be more of a
detemiinate of whether they consider themselves arty as an adult. regardless of what they do now.
Keeping kids happily occupied
or just tiring them out!
is a major motivator for parents and
grandparents.
Community and connection are key motivators.
Whole-cost is a concern across most groups - ticket price. merchandlse. sweets. ice-cream, food,
beer. transport, babysitter and so on.
Night-time transport is another barrier with limited public transport and scarce, expensive taxis.
East Belfast was frequently described as green. and residents love the Greenway and outdoor
festivals and events. and they see this as good for their mantal health.
Bandsmen see bands not as creative but as cultural. a way of lrfe.
People do a lot in the comfort of their own homes, particularly baking, drawing, painting and craft.
Younger people, people with poor menial health and neurodivergent people are particularly prone
to social anxiety and need a lot of assurance to try something new or go somewhere different.
There is a strong desire for more outdoor public-space events including on streets, in carparks and
outside libraries, shops or other familiar venues.
This information informed our planning for years 2 and 3 of the project. and we also sought
opportunities to share our findings and learnings with colleagues in the community and arts sector. To
this end we continued to develop our networks in east Belfast and to have discussions about equitable
access to arts and creativity with colleagues including:
Race Relations Nelwork
East Belfast Community Development Cafes
East Belfast Community Development Association
Ballymac Friendship Centre
New connections were made with the managers of Flourish who support survivors of human.
Objective 2: To create a variety of meaningful, open and Incluslve opportunltles for people In
east Belfast to explore creativity and connect wlth others
We believe that to make creative opportunltles meanlngful. they need to resonate with the

participantslaudience. To this tend we have the aim of telling east Belfast stories, and during the
reporting period we had the opportunity to support the writer Alice Malseed to tell the story of poverty
in east Belfast, which is alarmingly prevalent. The collaborative project worked wlth the followlng
partners -

East Belfast Anti-Poverty Alliance
The Larder Social Supemiarket
Kabosh Theatre Company
Alice created a 4-hander play called Three Pay Days. which was shared as a work in progress at The
Larder during the 2023 Eastside Arts Festival. We invited the audience of invited guests, interviewees
and ticket buyers to giv8 us their thoughts on the play to support Alice in writing the next draft.
Audien￿ feedback from the festival reading -
Stunning work. exploring such an important theme. Thank you.
A powerful piece of political theatrel work-in-progress. Excited to see the final product.
In Spring 2023 we toured the one-man drama Billy Boy by Rosemary Jenkinson. a play about a
young bonfire builder that was inspired by conversation with young people with Itved experience of
bonfire culture, to 4 x Belfast community venues through partnership with Green Shoot Productions.
This play also refleGts our desire to tell east Belfast stories. specifically the stories of people that are
frequently the mosl marginalised within our community.

who have expressed frustration with not being cast in Shakespeare and classical productions. Both

We began the first stage of a venue audit to ensure Ihe spaces we use are at the very least
vtheelchair accessible.
We sought advice from University of Atypical and Arts for All to bring lived experience expertise to
the next stage of the audit.
We began working with Paula Clark. a deaf artist and activist, to devise a series of events in the
2024 Eastside Arts Festival. We hope this is the start of a process to ensure that the festival 15

sustainability is almost impossible to achieve in the current climate and in sector suffering from a
long-temi critical lack of investment. With this in mind we worked towards ensuring the Eastside Arts
VRS in as strong a position financially in the following ways -
The Eastside Arts Festival was programmed with a mixture of fully funded free events, ticketed
events that are designed to break even. and a small number of events that are designed to make
a small profit.
We focussed our marketing spend on sales-focussed digital campaigns which were trackable and
best use of advertising spend
We programmed music and comedy events that had the highest ticket yield
In doing so we exceeded our festival ticketing income target
We secured funding from Halifax Foundalion and National Lottery Awards for All which allowed us
to deliver free avents for families and the local community
We are aware that strong relationships and a good reputation within the arts sector Is also vital in
securing long-term sustainability. To achieve this priority we
Designed our programmes to employ local artists, facilitators, creatives and suppliers
We exceeded our target of 600/0 of all project spend going towards artist costs across all
programmes
We paid 900/0 of all invoices within the 30 day contractual pertod
We invested in our board and staff across the year to ensure that the company maintains an optimum
level of committed. capable trustees and has a staff team capable of delivering the strategic plan.
Due to a board recruitment exercise we met our target of 8 Trustees during the financial year. with
4 new trustees attending their first board meeting in Q2.
Many of the Eastside Arts Trustees w8re involved in workshops to develop the new Eastside
Partnership 5-year Strategy
All staff carried out personal development throughout the year by way of either
mentoringlcoaching or traininglqualifications.

Financlal review
The results for the year are set out in detail on pages 19 & 20. The company returned a surplus for the
year of £58,438 (2023.. surplus of £71.036).
At 31 March 2024, the total funds of the charity amounted to £209,728 {2023: £151,290), comprising
restricted funds of £109,644 (2023: £83,613) and unrestricted funds of £100,084 (2023: £67,677).
The unrestricted funds are essential to provide sufficient funds to cover any unforeseen costs which
may arise and fulfil the legal obligations of the charity in the event that current levels of income are not
maintained.
Resen*s policy and going concern
A policy has been implemented by the company in order to recognise the charitys requirements for
reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. It has established a policy whereby the
unrestrrcted funds not committed should equate to between 25Yo and 500/0 of annual administration
overheads. The aim is to provide sufficient funds to cover any unforeseen costs which may arise. as
well as allowing for the payment of any liabilities which would arise should the company cease to
operate. The company recognises that such targets may remain aspirational.
Trustees, responsibilities staternent
The trust88s, who are also directors for the purposes of company law, are responsible for preparing
the trustees, report and the financial ststements in accordance with applicable law and United
Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the charity trustees to prepare financial statements for each year which give a
true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and the incoming resources and
application of resources. including the income and expenditure. for that period.
In preparing these financial ststements, the trustees are required to:
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently.,
obseNe the methods and principles in the applicable Charities SORP-
make judgments and accounting estirnates that are reasonable and prudent.
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material
departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements.
prepare the financial statements on the going concem basis unless it is inappropriate to presume
that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeplng adequate accountlng records that are sufficient to show and
explain the charivs transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial
position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements compSy with the
Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence
for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
