  • 1. Accounting policies

    Basis of measurement and preparation

    These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A (Small Entities) of Financial Reporting Standard 102

    Turnover policy

    Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Turnover is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when all the following conditions are satisfied: - the Company has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods; - the Company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold; - the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; - it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company; and - the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. Specifically, revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when goods are delivered and legal title is passed.

    Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

    Tangible fixed assets held for the company's own use are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. At each balance sheet date, the company reviews the carrying amount of its tangible fixed assets to determine whether there is any indication that any items have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off the cost or valuation less the estimated residual value of each asset over its estimated useful life: Plant and machinery : 25% Straight line Furniture, fittings and equipment : 25% Straight line

Company activities and impact

Overview After taking a year off from putting a festival on in 2023, Supernormal returned to our usual format by hosting a three-day festival in early August 2024 which was another extremely successful edition. We sold tickets to attend the festival via our lottery system, giving everyone the fairest chance of obtaining a ticket due to demand exceeding supply. The “tiered ticketing” approach, which encourages higher earners to purchase higher priced tickets and was introduced in 2019, remained in place. This approach means those buying the most expensive tier subsidise the below standard priced tickets made available for those with a low income. We had a number of new members join the Supernormal team at various points from late 2023 to early 2024. In total 1500 people attended the festival. There were 130 volunteers, 270 artists and 1000 tickets holders. The remaining numbers being festival production crew, press and Braziers Park community members. Artist Engagement For the festival programme we worked with a range of ‘programme partners’ who presented projects, activities and performances. We worked with three “associate programmers”, who each curated part of the festival programme. These included: QUEEF - Showcase and provide a platform for touring experimental/alt/queer artists. Colour Out Of Space - Brighton based International Festival of Experimental Sound and Art since 2006. Heart N Soul - An arts charity led by people with and without learning disabilities and autism. These partnerships brought new voices from diverse backgrounds to the programme. Total artists contributing to the programme was 270 which includes: Music: 190 Arts/Other: 90 Individual Performances: 105 Larger Projects & Commissions: 5 Workshops / Participatory Activities: 11 Of that number, workshops specifically for kids: 4 Public Engagement / Participation We once again ran an internet radio station from the festival site during the duration of the allowing those unable to attend in person to access some of the activity on site. Participation is a key aspect of Supernormal’s programme, with the intention of encouraging children, young people and families from a non-art background as well as artists to embrace a democratic approach to creativity and to be inspired by the diversity of practice at the festival. Wee presented an exciting and diverse workshops and activities programme including artist-led workshops exploring sound, movement, print, drawing and writing.

Consultation with stakeholders

Consultation continued throughout the year with members of Brazier Park community to ensure our working methods and decisions were decided and agreed upon collectively. The Supernormal Team held an AGM in Bidston in October in order to work on what the future of Supernormal looks like. This involved all directors, members and the advisory board.

Directors' remuneration

Having become VAT registered, it was agreed that one director (Jimmy Martin) was paid a sum of £940 as a thank for their services towards Supernormal for the year.

Transfer of assets

No transfer of assets other than for full consideration
