Statement of Directors Responsibilities The directors are responsible for preparing the Directors’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland. Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit and loss for the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to: select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; make judgements and accounting estimates 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; and prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. The directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the company’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. Small companies’ regime The report of the directors has been prepared taking advantage of the small companies exemptions of Section 415A of the Companies Act 2006.

n 2024/25, intoBodmin delivered a year-round programme of cultural and creative activity rooted in community participation and social value. We delivered 72 live events across multiple venues including The Old Library, St Petroc’s Church and The Beat, with an estimated audience of over 3,600 people. Events included concerts, theatre, craft workshops, wellbeing sessions, and two major seasonal commissions, Nos Calan Gwaf and the Spring Trail. We supported over 60 artists and freelancers during the year 80% of whom are Cornwall-based and engaged 10 regular volunteers contributing up to 25 hours per month. Our new artist commissions, such as the Christmas show Hah BumHug!, provided development opportunities for early-career creatives. Participants consistently rated event quality highly, with an average rating of 4.76 out of 5 (from 147 feedback forms). The reopening of The Old Library after capital refurbishment brought renewed energy to our community offer. Activities included Wosson Wednesdays, craft and wellness sessions, and space hire by 37 external organisations. The building was described by users and partners as “welcoming,” “safe,” and “non-judgemental,” with a noticeable increase in lingering, informal social interaction an indicator of trust and belonging. We continued to deliver funded programmes including Roots and Routes, The Bodcast, Wellbeing Walks, and The Bodmin Wellness Hub. These targeted wellbeing, place-based heritage, and intergenerational participation, helping reduce isolation and boost confidence. These projects were supported by Cornwall Council, the National Lottery Heritage Fund, Esmee Fairbairn Foundation, and Arts Council England.
intoBodmin’s primary stakeholders include audience members, participants, artists, partner organisations, volunteers, and funders. During 2024/25, we adopted multiple mechanisms to listen and respond, including, Annual Survey completed by 147 people, covering demographics, experience of events, and perceptions of The Old Library, 31 Story Collector reports gathered through 70 hours of in-person listening at 27 events, Artist Feedback Forms completed by 6 creatives, assessing experience and support, Stakeholder conversations with 9 partner organisations during March 2025, Story Collectors captured qualitative insight, highlighting that participants value the welcoming atmosphere, social connection, and affordable access to creative activity. Responses showed that people attend alone as well as in groups, and that the programming is increasingly seen as “something for everyone.” Stakeholders described intoBodmin as a transformative force in Bodmin’s cultural landscape, praised for stimulating creativity, building partnerships, and contributing to town centre regeneration. Some challenges were also acknowledged, including the ongoing need to build trust with those who feel the arts “are not for them,” and the complexity of managing multiple programme strands within a small team. We recognise that certain underserved groups remain underrepresented and are developing new strategies, including our Creative Community Practitioner role and embedded evaluation processes, to ensure our offer is more visible, relevant, and inclusive.
The total amount paid or receivable by directors in respect of qualifying services was £41,406. There were no other transactions or arrangements in connection with the remuneration of directors, or compensation for director’s loss of office, which require to be disclosed.
