The Centre has 8 regular stewards, and an additional 13 ad hoc stewards, ensuring the Centre can open between 1 Oam and 4pm Tuesday to Saturday. We are grateful to all our volunteers who have continued to offer invaluable help. Without them, we would not be able to operate. We support local artists and makers by selling their work in our shop. We have 19 members of teaching staff, including Claire Franks and Maddy Durbin, who delivered children's workshops in the holiday periods and Melinda Scarborough. who has taught Jewellery making workshops throughout the year. All tutors are all highly experienced in their own fields across many disciplines and the majority hold formal teaching qualifications. Our teaching standards are high and compare very favourably with other providers in the area. All staff and tutors have the opportunity for an appraisal. attend tutor meetings and are DBS checked. Classes have continued to be highly popular with both adults and children. Most are full. with some classes having people on a waiting list who were able to fill any available spaces straight away. Particularly popular areas are fused glass. ceramics, acrylic and watercolour painting. We continue to run a full home education class, which is a valuable resource to those parents who are home educating in our community.

RESERVES It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the free reserves of the charity, at a level which enables the charity to meet its management and administration costs as they fall due. The Trustees have assessed the level of net current assets required in the form of unrestricted funds to be £10.000. They have therefore set up a Development Fund to hold the balance of the net current assets, amounting £29,328 at 31 March 2025 (2024: £28,467). The charity also holds a legacy of £10,000 received during 2022 which is included in designated funds as a Legacy Fund.

THE COURTYARD ARTS AND COMMUNITY CENTRE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE COURTYARD ARTS AND COMMUNITY CENTRE I report to the trustees (who are also Directors for the purpose of company law) on my examination of the financial statements of The Courtyard Arts and Community Centre ('the charitable company,) for the year ended 3151 March 2025 which comprise the statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and related notes. This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity's trustees those matters l am required to state to them in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's trustees as a body. for my work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed. Responsibilities and basis of report As the trustees of charitable company you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act,). Having satisfied myself that the financial statements of the charitable company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the charitable company's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 <'the 2011 Act,) and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b} of the 2011 Act. An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their opinion on the financial statements. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide. Consequently. l express no opinion as to whether the financial statements present a 'true and fair. view and my report is limited to those specific matters set out in the independent examiner's statement.
THE COURTYARD ARTS AND COMMUNITY CENTRE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE COURTYARD ARTS AND COMMUNITY CENTRE CONTINUED Independent examiner's statement I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect.. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charitable company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act., or
the financial statements do not accord with those records- or the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the financial statements give a 'true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. or the financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.
