TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT: KOKNI COMMUNITY LUTON. CHARITY NO: 1079404
Assalamu alaikum.
It’s been yet another year defined by the coronavirus pandemic for Kokni Community Luton.
The restrictions imposed by the government curtailed our ability to hold any public events with any confidence.
However, our masjid (mosque) team, with the help of volunteers managed to keep the doors open to the public. Strict conditions were imposed for attending services, in line with guidance from the government and also the Muslim Council of Britain.
All precautions were followed e.g. wearing face covering, bringing your own mat, using sanitising facilities and also registering.
However, the big reduction in numbers of people attending has had a detrimental impact on our income, which relies on contributions and donations from mosque attendees. But with the help of furlough payments we did manage to keep our staff – the imam’s employed,
On the community side, a number of charitable events were held – including volunteers distributing parcels to charity members and offering help to those in need during lockdown. A dedicated group was set up to offer assistance where it was called for.
We were also able to make a substantial contribution to victims of the cyclone in western India from our funds.
Going forward, we are planning to resume full activities for the community including events for women and children, as well as our senior citizens.
Sports activities, which rely on grant aid, have also started resuming now that we are able to book facilities for e.g. football.
We are confident the charity (KCL) will be able to fulfil the objectives set out in its governing document in 2022.
