Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 30 September 2024


The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 September 2024. 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
LTS Academy aims to offer Musical Theatre, Dance, Drama and Singing training to local children from the age of three to sixteen year of age.

LTS Academy objectives are:-

a. To widen participation by assisting pupils who are financially disadvantaged supporting them with fee's and equipment.

b. To operate in line with government equality, diversity and disability policies.

c. To provide a quality musical theatre training that is relevant to individuals and the performing arts industry.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
During the year the Charity has assisted 18 children, giving them subsidised or in some cases free dance, acting and singing lessons.

For some or all of these children the Charity has assisted them with transports costs, uniform costs and the costs of dance shoes.

The Charity has also in the year taken the children on trips to musical theatre productions and given them a chance to perform in a show. Both experiences assisted in motivating and inspiring the children who without the Charity would not be able to financially afford to take part in a performing arts programme.

At 16 years of age the children have the opportunity to audition and train for a full time career at Liverpool Theatre School.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to two months expenditure. The trustees considers that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity's current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the period.

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.
