TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
Financial review
The charity’s principal activity for generating funds continued to be the letting of property. Incoming resources from generated funds has increased on last year as a result of the rising rent trend in London. The charity was able to support many religious activities during the year under review. The trustees are pleased with the financial management and staff support during the year. The results of the charity’s operations are on page 5 to the financial statements.
The Statement of Financial Activities shows how the charity's funds have been applied during the year. The gross receipts of the charity were £123,083 (2022: £109,321). Income was fully expended on the expenditure during the year of £172,452 (2022: £159,969). Total funds carried forward amounted to £3,923,052 (2022 £3,972,421), comprising a general income fund for charitable activities amounting to £2,419,823 (2022: £2,439,266) and a land and buildings revaluation reserve. There was no change to the overall value of the charity's investment properties, which are valued externally on an annual basis. All funds are unrestricted funds.
The assets of the charity are held in the names of the holding trustees. The Trust Deed authorises the trustees to make capital investment in furtherance of the charity's objectives.
Reserves policy
The trustees consider that the charity's reserves are adequate to meet its day to day expenditure and in the event of a shortfall they have access to sufficient resources to meet any deficit. For this reason the trustees do not require a minimum level of reserves to be maintained. The adequacy of the reserves policy is reviewed on a monthly basis.
Investment policy
Under the constitution document, the charity has power to invest funds which are not immediately required for its purpose and which the managing trustees see fit in furtherance of the charity’s objectives.
Major risks

Risk management is considered as an integral element of all decision making and identifying appropriate procedures to ensure that risk levels are acceptable in each case. The Trustees believe that it is important to develop and enhance the approach in risk management, to ensure it remains fit for purpose. The charity will formalise the risk management and create a risk register which will be reviewed on regular basis.
Plans for future periods
In addition to the objectives outlined above, the charity has additional objectives over the forthcoming 12 months period:
-
To improve the quality of the services offered to the community. Attendance of the youth is much needed in order to create responsible attitudes towards life and society, and resist extremism.
-
To empower women to enable them to take more interactive part in the Trust’s activities. Throughout the year some activities for women were held.
-
To enhance the management of the investment part of the Trust. To consider managing the properties ourselves in order to improve the yield.
-
To provide financial assistance towards the education and welfare of individuals in need, consistent with the objectives of the charity
Structure, governance and management

The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the Charities SORP (FRS102) (2019) not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a true and fair view. This departure has involved following the applicable edition of the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
1.2 Going concern

1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in the furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.

Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and gifts and is included in full in the statement of financial activities when receivable. Grants where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.
Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified. The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102) (2019).
Income from investments is included in the year in which it is receivable.

1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.
Raising funds comprises the costs associated with the management of the investment properties.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Land and buildings 50 years straight line Furniture and equipment 25% per annum reducing balance
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year.
The element of depreciation charged on the revalued amount of an asset is transferred to the revaluation reserve at the end of each financial year.
1.7 Investment properties
Investment properties held as fixed assets are included at open market value as at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses on the annual revaluation are taken to the statement of financial activities.
1.8 Financial instruments
Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or when the charity transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party.

Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
1.9 Employee benefits
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
1.10 Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of investment properties and other assets, which are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions about assets and liabilities are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
