Fusionarts Limited

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 29 September 2020

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 29 September 2020. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

Objectives and activities Objectives and activities

It is to promote, maintain and advance education in the arts by the provision of facilities and training for artists. To provide facilities to encourage knowledge, understanding and appreciation of the applied arts through exhibitions and education with the object of giving the widest possible access to all members of the public, in particular the inhabitants of Kingston Upon Thames, the county of Surrey and the London area.

Principal activities

Currently the operations and continuing development of the studios as a focus point for artists in Kingston, the support given to the Kingston University art students. The holding or exhibitions of work both to the studio artists and students. Working with the University and Borough to establish more permanent displays of the work of local artists for the benefits of the community.

Social investments

Given that this charity is in its infancy as and when surplus funds exist it is the intention of the trustees that the monies should be invested in a savings account with their bankers Lloyds TSB. This policy will be reviewed annually in the light of the progress made.

Independent examiner

A resolution will be proposed at the Annual general meeting that Ms Lisa Carr of Freeman Carr be re-appointed as Independent Examiner to the charity for the ensuing year.

Structure, governance and management

Governing document

The constitution adopted on 14 February 2004 is governing document of the charity. The charity was established under the constitution which established the objects and powers of the charity and is governed under its constitution.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

Under the terms of the charity's constitution, management of the charities affairs is vested in a board of trustees. The board of trustees has the right to appoint members to the board either as additional members or to fill any casual vacancies.

Financial Review

These are shown in the accompanying financial statements and reflect the continuing financial stability of the charity. As disclosed more fully in the notes to the financial statements, FusionArts has future financial commitments under the lease of the four floors at 53 Eden Street, Kingston. The lease whilst five years has a break clause after three years . The charity's reserve at the end of the year is £18,341 all of which is unrestricted.

Structure, governance and management Trustee induction and training

The chair of the trustees is responsible for the induction of any new trustees which involves awareness of trustee's responsibilities, the governing document, administrative procedures, the history and philosophical approach of the charity. A new trustee would receive copies of the previous year's annual report and accounts and a copy of the Charity Commission leaflet 'The essential trustee: What you need to know'.

Principal funding sources

The principal funding source for the charity is currently by way of rental income from artists for the use of studios.

Reserves policy

Reserves are held to cover unexpected expenditure; in addition, reserves will be needed to overcome main risks to the organisation. Whilst the current level of reserves are sufficient, it is the trustees' view that it is prudent to ensure that reserves are increased in future years to provide financial flexibility over the forth coming challenges.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Fusionarts Limited

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Fusionarts Limited ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 29 September 2020.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

  4. the accounts 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 accounts to be reached.
