## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT** 

TO THE TRUSTEES OF ARTIFICATION 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of ARTification (the trust) for the year ended 31 March 2023. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the trustees of the trust you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act). 

I report in respect of my examination of the trust’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act. 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. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared financial statements in accordance with Accounting 

and Reporting by (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn. 

Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland I understand that this has been done for financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015. 

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 that in any material respect: 

1 Accounting records were not kept in respect of the trust as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or 

2 The financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

3 The financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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. 

Signature: SYON ASSOCIATES
