- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the original financial statements were authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “Launching on 1 September 2023 West of England Music and Arts (WEMA) takes forward the previous work of the Music Education Hubs (Music Services) of Bath and North East Somerset (BANES), North Somerset and South Gloucestershire. WEMA reunited music education under the WEMA family in September 2023.”
- “WEMA began operations in September 2023, for the new school year, seamlessly transitioning services over the next 6 months. Over 120 Local Authority staff transferred to WEMA in January 2024, joining WEMA's existing workforce, signalling the start of the new way of delivering music education in BANES, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire.”
- “To reinforce WEMA's role in supporting people of all ages to thrive and achieve through the power of music, arts and culture, the launch of our Cultural Education Hub was another triumph of the year.”
- “Cultural Hub has made a strong start, having only launched in April 2024. Our first cohort of practitioners are beginning their journey and we look forward to reporting on their successes next year.”
