## **2022 TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT: KOKNI COMMUNITY LUTON, CHARITY NUMBER: 1079404.** 

2022 was a year of consolidating our existing roster of activity and moving to a new business-as-usual model following the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to unprecedented rises in the cost of living that has had an impact on KCL, not least our fundraising potential, we have taken steps to be financially prudent such as fixing our energy costs for an appropriate period. 

Our dedicated mosque facilities continue to hold prayers thanks in no small part to our dedicated volunteer team – their efforts were especially appreciated during the busy Ramadan period. We also employed a full-time imam to fill a position that became vacant towards the end of 2021. 

Community-based sports and recreational activities were re-introduced in 2022 following the pandemic – badminton and fitness classes for women were notable inclusions. We also continued to run our usual activities such as football. Our education offering continues to go from strength to strength, with our Islamic studies classes for children regularly oversubscribed. 

The whole community came together for our annual Fun Day over the summer – the first held since the pandemic – and this was a genuine highlight of the year. Key activities included health and wellbeing sessions and activities for children. We also held a finance session for our members to help our community understand the importance of financial planning. 

Our dedicated ladies team also held events for female members of the community, including a picnic at a well-known park, and continue to be active in identifying appropriate community engagement opportunities. 

Looking ahead to 2023, we hope that cost-of-living impacts start to ease so we can expand our offering of appropriate activities for the community. Therefore, our focus will be to consolidate our existing roster of activity while introducing new ones such as family-oriented outings and sport sessions e.g., swimming. 

We hope to achieve all of the above as well as those set by our governing document in 2023.
