## TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT(continued) 

## YEAR ENDED 8 MAY 2021 

## OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES 

The company's principal activity and primary charitable object during the period was to continue to advance education for the public benefit by the promotion of the arts, in particular, but not exclusively the art of dance. 

## PUBLIC BENEFIT 

The Trustees have carefully considered the public benefit requirements and their duty to ensure that they are compliant with them. They feel that the activities described above under Objectives and Activities more than adequately satisfy the public benefit requirement. 

## FINANCIAL REVIEW 

## Performance Review 

The statement of financial activities gives full details of the financial performance of the charity. 

## Reserves 

The charity does not incur substantial fixed costs and the trustees therefore consider that the current level of reserves is adequate to cover future events and to support its charitable objectives. 

## RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and the income and expenditure of the charitable company for that period. 

In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

· state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

· prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.

## INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF IJAD (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE AND NOT HAVING SHARE CAPITAL) 

## YEAR ENDED 8 MAY 2021 

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 8 May 2021 set out on pages 7 to 10. 

## RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND INDEPENDENT EXAMINER 

The charity's trustees (who, except Leila Neeman Laurent, Mahmoud Naim Abu-Wardeh and Ms Joumana Mourad are also the directors of Ijad (a Company Limited by Guarantee and Not Having Share Capital) for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act), and that an independent examination is required. 

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5) of the 2011 Act); and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, 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 I do not express an audit opinion on whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view'. 

## 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 trustees have not met the requirements to ensure that: 

- proper accounting records are kept (in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006); and 

- accounts are prepared which agree with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities; or 

(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
