Achievements and performance
a. Main achievements of the Company
• The SCAF Emerging Artist Award created new opportunities and relationships for our finalists. Once again, we exceeded the previous number of entries to give us 10 high quality finalists.
• Our judges included one who is involved in Open Studios in York and our 2023 SCAF EAA winner. Working with our previous winners is proving to be an excellent additional benefit for them (and us) as they are able to see the process in its entirety.
• Past SCAF EAA finalists have taken up the opportunity to use the SCAF office to work in the space both on their own projects and to creatively respond to the archived work of our benefactors. Four of our past finalists are currently working on projects with SCAF.
• We continue to receive positive feedback from members of the public who have visited the NHS outpatient department at the York Community Stadium, where we are now in the 3rd year of a 5-year loan exhibition on display in the NHS waiting areas. We are looking to change some of the paintings within the next year.
• Our presence in Thirsk is now well established and our office is now visited by artists and friends of SCAF.
• Our first volunteer remains an integrated team member

d. Financial report
SCAF had an opening bank balance on 1st April 2023 of 64,402 and a closing balance on 31st March 2024 of £11,353.
The funds are held between 2 accounts a current account for day-to-day transactions and running expenses of the charity and a savings account. Both are held with Lloyd’s bank.
The balance of funds is currently held in a portfolio with Brewin Dolphin. Although the overall figure fluctuates the portfolio value as at 31 March 2024 was £399,571 including cash of £12,821.
The main areas of expenditure continued to be the Curator’s wage and the Artistic Director’s fees along with projects to promote the work of SCAF in particular the Emerging Artist Award. This continues to be a very successful and popular award with relatively low costs. The 2023/2024 award was once again hosted in person and was well received with a good turnout on the day.
Storage of the art collection has been made easier with the purchase of the property near Thirsk and all additional building costs to convert the garage into an office for SCAF is now finished. This has allowed more efficient administration of the charity’s affairs and allow further expansion of the work of SCAF with new events planned and the ability to offer internships for art students.
The property continues to be rented and SCAF receives a market value annual rent.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
Structure, governance and management
a. Constitution
The CIO is a registered charity, number 1168545 with the registration dated 1 August 2016.
Scott Creative Arts Foundation is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) governed by a constitution registered with the Charity Commission on 1 August 2016. From the estate of Michael Reginald Scott, the charity received a pecuniary legacy of £1,000,000, a specific bequest of the lifetime works of Michael and Eileen Scott and, subject to a right of residence which has since been waived, the private residence, furniture, and personal effects of the late Michael Scott.
Scott Creative Arts Foundation has adopted the Foundation model of the CIO constitution, voting members are therefore the charity Trustees only. In accordance with the constitution Trustees may be appointed for an unlimited period and appointments are approved by the incumbent Trustees by way of a majority decision.
The Board of Trustees meets four times a year and are responsible for meeting the aims and objectives, ongoing viability, strategic development, and legal obligations of the charity. The Board of Trustees holds overall responsibility for the charity's continued success; it is vital that its Trustees have the necessary skills and knowledge to enable them to carry out this function.
During the period the charity had one paid part time employee and one paid part-time consultant. The Trustees performed the day-to-day management of the organisation.
The Board of Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.
b. Reference and administrative expenses
Reference and administrative details are included within Charity Information, which constitutes part of the Report of the Trustees
c. Factors outside the charities control
Global and government instability has kept both private and business spending on the arts at low level.
Changes in local Planning criteria which now discourage any development that involves members of the public using private vehicles to drive to an out of town location.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
1. General information
The Scott Creative Arts Foundation- is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) and the registered office is The Old Barn, York Road, Thirsk, North Yorkshire, Y7 3AD.
2. Accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
The Scott Creative Arts Foundation meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
2.2 Income
All income is recognised once the Company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
The recognition of income from legacies is dependent on establishing entitlement, the probability of receipt and the ability to estimate with sufficient accuracy the amount receivable. Evidence of entitlement to a legacy exists when the Company has sufficient evidence that a gift has been left to them (through knowledge of the existence of a valid will and the death of the benefactor) and the executor is satisfied that the property in question will not be required to satisfy claims in the estate. Receipt of a legacy must be recognised when it is probable that it will be received and the fair value of the amount receivable, which will generally be the expected cash amount to be distributed to the Company, can be reliably measured.
2.3 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the Company to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.4 Taxation
The Charitable Incorporated Organisation is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charitable Incorporated Organisation is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
2.5 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets costing £NIL or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, .
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
| Freehold property | - | No depreciation |
|---|---|---|
| Plant and machinery | - | 20% Straight line |
| Fixtures and fittings | - | 20% Straight line |
| Computer equipment | - | 33% Straight line |
| Artwork | - | 33% Straight line |
2.6 Investments
Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the Balance Sheet date, unless the value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and presented as ‘Gains/(Losses) on investments’ in the Statement of Financial Activities.
2.7 Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
Page 14
THE SCOTT CREATIVE ARTS FOUNDATION (A Charitable Incorporated Organisation)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.8 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as a finance cost.
2.9 Financial instruments
The Company only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
3. Investment income
