Objectives and activities

1 The advancement of Religion
2 The advancement of Arts and Creativity within Religious
Organisation.
Summary of the main activities
in relation to these objects		 The charity aims to advance creative spirituality through modelling,
teaching and influencing. Rather than replacing local Church we aim to
promote intermittent gatherings of like minded people, provide defined
teaching courses and also attend other Christian groups to provide
inspiration.
We had monthly open meetings at Inverness Creative Academy till March
25 when we moved to a new venue at the Treehouse, Carsegate Road,
Inverness, providing regular teaching, community connection, and
creative spiritual formation. The charity collaborated with other
organisations across Scotland to deliver events and training workshops in
multiple locations.
Activities included the Synergy Conference, Dunfermline (11–12 October
2024), participation in the Cairn Movement Conference (6–13 July),
leadership network events and training with Transforming Scotland, a
stall at The Send March 2025, and a leadership retreat at Lindisfarne, UK
in April 2025.
International activities included contribution to the Tabernacle event in
Shreveport, Louisiana, USA, and delivery of Limitless training courses in
Malmö, Sweden. Streams Creative House team training and skill
development opportunities were also provided as part of UK and
international activities.

STREAMS CREATIVE HOUSE SCIO

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER TO THE TRUSTEES

I report on the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 July 2025.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 (the 2005 Act) and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (the 2006 Regulations). The charity’s trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1) (a) to (c) of the 2006 Regulations does not apply.

It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under section 44(1) (c) of the 2005 Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the 2006 Regulations. An independent examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and, consequently, no opinion is given as to whether the financial statements present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner’s statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention

  1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: • to keep accounting records in accordance with section 44(1) (a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Regulations; and

  2. to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and to comply with Regulation 8 of the 2006 Regulations

have not been met; or

  1. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.
