Company activities and impact

During the financial year, Same Difference Arts CIC continued to deliver community-focused creative activities, supporting access to the arts across Yorkshire through inclusive theatre and participatory projects. The company’s work benefited children, families, and local communities by providing creative engagement opportunities and supporting emerging artists. Following the company’s cessation of trading in September 2023, its community theatre activities and future programme delivery were transferred to SD Theatre CIC to ensure the continued delivery of its charitable and social objectives. Through this transition, the community impact and legacy of Same Difference Arts CIC have been sustained under the new organisation, maintaining the same commitment to creativity, inclusivity, and public benefit.

Consultation with stakeholders

As the company ceased trading in September 2023, formal consultation activity during the financial year was limited. Community feedback and engagement for ongoing arts activities are now undertaken by SD Theatre CIC, which continues to consult with participants, partners, and community groups in developing its programmes. This ensures that the voices and needs of the community continue to inform the delivery of creative and inclusive theatre projects.

Directors' remuneration

No remuneration was received

Transfer of assets

During the financial year, the company transferred Theatre Tax Relief repayments (£21,041.87) and a motor vehicle valued at £1,935 to SD Theatre CIC. SD Theatre CIC is a separate community interest company under common directorship, established to continue the community theatre activities previously delivered by Same Difference Arts CIC. These transfers were made in accordance with the company’s asset lock provisions and for the continued benefit of the community. No consideration was received, and no personal or private benefit arose from these transfers.
