Trustees' report for the year ended 31 March 2025

Structure, governance and management continued

Method of recruitment and appointment of trustees

The management Board members, who are the directors of the company, are also the charity’s trustees, and are responsible for the overall management of the charitable company.

The Board is elected annually at the Annual General Meeting by the members.

Under the requirements of the memorandum and articles of association, at each Annual General Meeting 50% of the trustees shall retire by rotation, being those who have been longest in office since their last appointment. They may stand down or offer themselves for re-election.

We aim to recruit Board members from the local community, but also welcome nominations from anyone who shares our aims and objectives and who has special knowledge or skills which would strengthen the Board. The Centre Manager discusses the roles and responsibilities of a trustee with potential members and provides an opportunity for them to find out more about the organisation’s work and funding. All nominations are taken to the AGM for election.

Trustee induction and training

All new Board members are given the Charity Commission booklet on the roles and responsibilities of being a trustee. They also have the opportunity to attend training and to join in activities.

The details of the charity’s trustees who have served during the year are set out on page 2. All trustees give their time voluntarily. Any expenses reclaimed by trustees from the charity are set out in note 9 to the accounts.

Risk Management

The management Board has examined the principal areas of the charity’s operations and considered the major risks which may arise in each of these areas. In the opinion of the trustees the charity has established systems which, under normal conditions, should allow the risks identified by them to be mitigated to an acceptable level in its day-to-day operations.

Risks to the property and its contents are covered by comprehensive insurance. Project service users, workers and Board members are subject to the policies and procedures that have been approved to minimise all risks. The centre has Professional Indemnity and Employer’s and Public Liability Insurance. All these policies are subject to review.

Organisational Structure

The policies and direction of Sangat are determined by the voluntary management Board. The full time centre manager (Riasat Ali) is responsible for the day to day running of the centre with a team of 12 part-time workers and session workers together with a valuable pool of volunteers.

Objectives and activities

The charity's objects

To promote the benefit of the inhabitants of Keighley and the surrounding areas, and in particular but not exclusively the Asian inhabitants, by associating together the said inhabitants and the local authorities, voluntary and other organisations in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities in the interest of social welfare for recreation and other leisure time occupation with the object of improving the conditions of life for the said inhabitants.

To establish or secure the establishment of a Community Centre (hereinafter called the Sangat Centre) and to maintain and manage the same, whether alone or in co-operation with any local authority or other person or body in furtherance of these objects.

Objectives and activities continued

Public benefit statement

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular the advancement of training and education for the local community.

The charity's main activities Overview

Our regular activities continue and are well used. These include general advice, immigration & employment advice, benefit advice, development work for women, Social Day Care for the elderly, Health and Well Being for men, Health Awareness programme, Healthy Cooking, Social Day Care for Asian Adults with Learning Disabilities, Job Club and IT, ESOL & Citizenship classes, exercise sessions for men and women and the soup kitchen.

Youth activities

We are continuing to run the Holiday & Food programmes in the school holidays. These have always been very popular. The schemes are packed with fun activities like bowling, cinema, football competitions, multi-sport activities, laser-tag, inflatables and trampoline park visits.

Health

Once again Sangat has delivered an extensive range of projects working alongside other partner organisations. Health awareness was the focus. We are still running Warm Spaces for people who need a space where they can come and have hot food and socialize. We have given out many food parcels to people in need. The funding for the food parcels has been extended.

Achievements and performance

The Sangat Centre has a diverse range of adult education classes including ESOL classes at a range of levels, IT classes, Job Club, including employability skills & CV support, sewing classes and driving theory.

Sangat’s Advice staff provide general information and guidance and signposting on issues including statutory benefits, pensions, disability, utility bills, passport applications, school admissions, hospital appointments, visa, nationality, immigration and household expense letters such as mortgage and insurance.

As part of the Special Advice Partnerships Sangat provides specialist immigration advice at OISC Level 1 and general welfare advice.

The Sangat Centre is part of Bradford council’s HSF and warm spaces programme, providing and delivering food parcels and warm food on site 4 days a week. We additionally have our own donation programme which allows us to extend the food service to a greater number of families as well as providing non-food items.

Our Social Day Care for the elderly has been running for over 25 years and is very popular. It runs on Wednesdays for women and Thursdays for men. Activities include wellbeing/confidence building sessions, exercise, pampering, educational workshops, external visits and baking.

Our youth activities include weekly karate/kickboxing clubs, weekend football sessions, weekday youth club and a Holiday Playscheme active through Christmas, Easter and summer holidays. We are starting a new long-term girls’ only multi-sports programme to encourage greater female participation in sports. This project has come about after a successful trial with the delivery of a girls’ badminton group.

The Sangat Centre operates a new parent and toddler group delivering Play & Learn opportunities and supporting with parenting skills as well as signposting to resources and opportunities available for families.

Sangat Community Association Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2025

Achievements and performance continued

In 2025 we started long-term Women’s and Men’s Wellbeing projects running over 3 days and 2 evenings a week to deliver activities aimed at meeting a diverse range of needs and interests. These include creative, craftbased sessions, exercise & sports/team-based activities as well as classroom-based learning activities.

Financial review

The net expenditure for the year was £-2,064, including net income of £15,661 on unrestricted funds and net expenditure of £13,597 on restricted funds, after transfers.

Reserves policy

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £203,587.

The trustees have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets (‘the free reserves’) held by the charity should comprise closure costs for the charity as well as between 3 and 6 months of budgeted total expenditure. Based on 2025/2026 budgeted expenditure this equates to a reserves target of between £62,000 and £124,000. At this level, the Trustees feel that they would be able to continue the current activities of the charity in the event of a significant drop in funding. The trustees review the policy annually.

We are planning to construct two additional classrooms at the centre and will be seeking funding to support this initiative, as well as the installation of solar panels. A portion of our reserve surplus will be allocated to support these projects.

Sangat Community Association Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2025

Statement of trustees' responsibilities

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards.

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

make judgements and 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 accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

Approved by the board of trustees on 15/12/2025

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
