Project Art Works Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 Charitable Activities Project Art Works is an independent charity and visual arts organisation that collaborates with people who have complex support needs, families, caregivers, and people workn'ng in culture and care. Our vislon is a society that places value on the capabilities of people with complex needs, families and support workers, and invests in stsble and sustainable support and care so they can realise their potential. We believe that art can, through both its process and its final form, reflect and articulate ideas that trans￿nd difference and reach people. Our mission is to change lives through art by exploring potential and promoting works by neurodivergent artists and makers through a wide range of projects, partnerships and exhibitions. Our programmes evolve through personalised, supported studio practice and radiate out to awareness raising, long-term collaborations, and skills development with social care and cultural partners. Our work aspires to ex￿llenCe in contemFK)rary visual art and is uniquely positioned to bridge the social care and cultural sectors in ways that promote sustainable relationships and bring people with complex needs into the heart of civic and cultural life. Our programmes and projects evolve through creative practice and radiate out to awareness raising in the cultural and care sectors - promoting more diverse representation of neurodiverse artists and maker5, and those who care for them. PROGRAMMES Art Freedom Care: Specialist arts provision for 48 leaming disabled andlor autistic artists. During 24125 we provided 336 creative sessions in our studios in Hastings, Tuesday-Friday, for 40 weeks of the year. Each session is tailored to each person's needs and interests through a personalised approach that facilitates choice and expansive creative practice. Artists have ac￿$$ to a wide range of media and creats've processes including painting, drawing, printmaking, collage, sculpture, animation and photography. Club Build: A responsive programme, centred around community-based, supported studio sessions for autistic and or leaming disabled people who present behaviours of distress. We held 53 creative sessions and provided other support through meets'ngs with parentlcarers and circles of support. Art Breaks: In 24125, 297 places for children and young people with SEND between 5-18yrs old we offered through 67 creative workshops held on Saturdays and school holidays. The Support Collectlve: In 24125, families and carers met across 48 sessions that covered free specialist training, peer support, PATH personalised a5pirational planning sessions, and creative workshops. In addition weekly, individually tailored sessions of one to one advocacy and SUPF¥)rt for families experiencing periods of crises in their interaction with se[Vi￿$. Explorers: A collaborative national programme of art and action that opened up routes into artistic practice for neurominorities, aiming to dismantling attitudinal and 5yStemic barriers to representation and rights in art and society. ProjeLt Art Works collaborated with eight partners across England, creating pla￿OrMS for neurodivergent artists t() show their work and represent themselves in cultural SPa￿S. We worked with cultural organisations to dee￿n their understsnding of neurodiversity, and we Commi￿lOned writing and other forms of communicab'on to help change the discourse of how neurodivergent artists are tK)sib'oned and described in culture. Bethlem Gallery and National Autism Unit (NAU): Project Art Works collabotated with the projett partners at South London and Maudsley Hospital (SLAM) in Croydon, over a five-week residency in the NAU, to explore sensory and participatory art practi￿5. The aim was to inform the SLAM art strategy and potential art Commi￿10n5 for a proposed new NAU. The work focussed on accessibility, creativity and inclusion within neurodiverse Spa￿5, and the potential for further more involved programmes of work with aub'stic inpatients. Through d(Kumenting, refletting on and learning from the ideas of those who engaged with a temporary studio Spa￿, the project explored how slte-respon5ive art can play a key role in enhancing and 'humanising' the clinical environment. Tate Modem Collaboration: Project Art Work5 was commissioned by Tate Modern to create workshops that responded to their major exhibits'on Expre55ionist5: Kandinsky, Munter and The Blue Rider. We set-up an environrnental installations at our studio base in Hastings, using colour fields of blue, white and black, projections of paintings and works by artists intended to stimulate imagination and connection to the works of Der Blaue Reiter. Documentats'on of the prO￿sS including works produced and photcgraphy were published a5 part of the companion booklet Dialogues: Expres5ioni5ts available in the Tate Modern. Page I

Project Art Works Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 Representation of neumdiveryent people and careglvers on our Board: We have explored different approaches to increasing representation at board level. The nomiative environment of a board meetings, and the legal requirements associated with acting as a trustee, are not accessible to many of the people we work with, many of whom do not have voice or cognitive privilege so we have a group of neurodivergent advisers to the board that provide critical insight from lived experience. Supported volunteerlng.. Responding to requests from neurodivergent artists who are part of our regular studio, we introduced informal opportunities for supported volunteering across our organisation. They are now involved in supporting facilitators working with children and young people on Art Breaks, representing the organisation at awarenes5 raising events and training sessions with other cultural institutions, advising the board, and leading tour5 of our studio when we have visitors. Governance: Three new Trustees were appointed during this year with two resignations. The board consists of 8 trustees and 2 neurodiverse artistladvocates. The Board provides guidance, expertise and support to the organisation. A skills audit has been LJndertaken to enable the organisation to recognise the strengths of existing board members and identify gaps in expertise that are needed to support strategic objectives and organisational development Financial Review Project Art Works continues to develop and renew relationships with a wide range of Trusts and Foundations and Ststutory funders. The financial climate continues to be challenging with increased costs and inflationary pressure. Whilst remaining suc￿Ssful in securing funds for our ongoing programme and core costs, we remain mindful of the challenges ahead. The Suc￿sS rate of new applications has dropped over the past few months, with funders reporting an increase in applications and pressure on limited resources. Many funders are reviewing their funding criteria in response to societal challenges and reducing the number and funding level of grants awarded. Development of our trading arm, roles and securing patrons will support the ongoing financial challenges. The capital programme remains in budget. Reserves policy The Trustees annually consider the reserves policy and the risks facing the organisation. We aim to achieve 3 months rese￿eS and contingent costs within the next five years. Ideally, rese￿e5 should be further developed to cover costs for a 6-month period thereby providing Jrome protertion for the organiJeation through fallow pcriod.. ReJCry￿a incomc 15 gcncratcd through sales, commis5ion5, licencing and Art on Loan. ReseNes were identified for two distintt areas: l. Building the Trustees conside￿d potential risks not covered by insurance or planned expenditure. II. Operational - the Trustees considered that reserves should be built up to cover potential risks as follows.. a. 3 months operational costs b. redundancy costs, contingency for outstanding liabilities, and professional costs c. contingency for fluttuations in funding cycles. At the end of 24-25 financial year reserves increased to £115,205 against an initial target of £210,000. In 2024-25 we missed our annual target to build reserves by £3,415. Our annual target to build reserves to this level is £23,743 per annum over the stated period of five years. Fuifilment of Public Benefit Requirements of The Charities Act 2022 Proiett Art Works is a unique visual art organisation that creates opportunits-e5 Wlth and for children, young people and adults who have complex needs to engage with the world and express themselves through art.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Conclusions relating to going concern In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustee5' Use of the going con￿rn basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial ststements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material un￿rtaIntieS relating to events or conditions that, individually or collettivelyi may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going con￿rn for a period of at least t￿e1ve months from when the financial statements a￿ authorised for issue. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respert to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. Other inforniation The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Audrtors thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other informats'on and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assuran￿ conclLrsion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial rtatomonts, our re.ponJibility IJ to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial Statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misststed. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misststements, we are required t() determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: the information given in the Report of the Trustees for the financial year for which the financial Statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and the Report of the Trustees has been prepared in accordan￿ with applicable legal requirements.

Page 6

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of Project Art Works We have nothing to report in respett of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to reFK)rt to you if, in our opinion: adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us. or the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or certain disclosures of trustees, remuneration specified by law are not made; or we have not received all the information and explanations we requi￿ for our audit. Responsibilities of trustees As explained more fully in the Trustees, Responsibilities Statement, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitsble company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the prepaTrtion of financial statements that are free from matenal misststement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial ststements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concem basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liqui(Jate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no ￿alistiC alternative but to do so. Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial ststements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial 5tstementS 35 a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assuran￿ is a high level of a55urance, but Is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered matertal if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be experted to Influen￿ the economic decisions of users tsken on the basis of these financial statements. The extent to Ih our prcKedures are capable of detecting Irregularities, IIing fraud Is detailed below.. Audit procedures carried out to detect irregularities including fraud were as follows.. A risk assessment in respect of the detection of irregularities including fraud addressed income, expenditure and management override in particular. A sample of grant applicats'ons made were substantively tested and vouched to award letters and funds received or to rejection correspondence. A sample of expenses were substanb'vely tested by being vouched to supporting paperwork. Where applicable the expenses were checked to ensure that they were valid in terms of the grant conditions associated with the funding re￿Ived. For large and unusual expenses the rationale of the transactions were evaluated. Journal entries made were reviewed and were found to be substantially transfers ￿￿een projects and core costs. A sample ot such journals were tested to confirm the transfers were bona fide. for large and unusual Journals the ratlonale of the transactions were evaluated. An assessment of how fraud might occur. Income 15 substantially received by dI￿rt payment into the bank account. Petty cash transactions are trivial. Authorisation for expenses is geared to the value of transactions. There is a hierarchy of who can sign for increasing amounts with duplicate authorisation required for high value transactions. Control accounts are maintained and reconciled monthly for debtors, cash at bank and in hand and creditors. Fixed as5et5 registers are reviewed and checked. ObseNation and enquiry during the course of the audit confirmed the assessment. An assessment of judgements and estimates. No judgements have been incorporated in the accounts. The only estimates are for depreciation which is considered low risk. Rl assessment of the audit teams competence and capability to identify or recognise non-compliance with laws arld regulations Enquiry of management and those charged with govemance in respect of actual and potential litigation and claims. Because of the inherent limitstions of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial Statements or non-compliance with regulations. This risk increases the more that compliance with the law or regulation is removed from the events and transaction5 reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of the instan￿$ of non-complian￿. A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors. Page 7
