The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102).
Structure, Governance and Management
Governing Document
IMECE Women's Centre Limited is a company limited by guarantee and is a registered charity. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. In the event of the company being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1.
Recruitment & Appointment of Trustees
The trustees and directors who have served throughout the year are shown on page 1. Appointment of directors/trustees is governed by the Memorandum & Articles of Association.
New Trustees undergo training on their legal obligations as under Charity Law, the decision making process, the business plan and recent performance of the charity.
Organisational Structure
The charity is organized so that the trustees meet regularly to manage its affairs. The Chief Executive Officer manages the day to day administration of the charity and report to the Trustees at monthly Trustee meetings.
Risk Management
The trustees actively review the major risks which the charity faces on a regular basis and believe that maintaining reserves at the current levels, combined with an annual review of the controls over key financial systems, will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions.
The trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit.
The trustees also review non-financial risks and these risks are managed by ensuring compliance with all health and safety regulations for children, staff and parents.
Related parties
None of the trustees receive remuneration or other benefit in their capacity as trustees of the charity. Any connection between a trustee of the charity and organisations providing services to the charity must be disclosed to the full board of trustees in the same way as any contractual relationship with a related party. In the current year no such related party transactions were reported.
Pay policy for senior staff
The directors consider that the board of directors, who are the Charity's trustees, and senior management team comprise the key management personnel of the charity in charge of directing, controlling, running and operating the charity on a day to day basis.
The pay of senior staff is reviewed annually and normally increased in with Local Authority pay scales.
Main Activities, Purposes and Objectives
The charity's objects and its principal activities are the provision of educational, social and welfare services for the benefit of the Turkish speaking community in Greater London, particularly the Islington and Hackney areas of London.
Main Achievements
The charity produces a separate Annual Report detailing the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity's work made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries.

IMECE Women's Centre Ltd (Private Company Limited by Guarantee) Directors' & Trustees' Report for the Year Ended 31 March 2024 (Continued)
Financial review
Total income for the year amounted to £952,093 with total expenditure amounting to £905,772 leaving a surplus in the year of £46,321.
Accumulated reserves at the balance sheet date amounted to £420,314, of which £410,753 represent income reserves.
Investment powers and policy
The trustees, having regard to the liquidity requirements of operating the charity's activities, have kept a proportion of available liquid funds in an interest bearing account to maximise the rate of return, although given current rates of interest the rate of return is minimal. The trustees will review the position and consider alternative investments to maximise returns but will continue with a risk averse policy.
Reserves policy and going concern
The Trustees have undertaken a review of the charity's requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. As part of this review the charity has set up two funds, namely a 'running cost' fund, 'staff & maternity fund' and 'functional fixed asset reserve', in line with Charity Commission recommendations. The running cost reserve is to cover running costs of the charity of between 3 to 6 months and as at 31 March 2024 stands at £275,000 which is equivalent to four months running costs. The 'staff & maternity fund' is to cover future potential statutory liabilities (redundancy, unpaid holiday & monies in lieu of notice) should the charity cease activities and as at 31 March 2024 stands at £48,000. The building fund has been set up this year to cover future potential liabilities arising from disputes (with joint occupiers) relating to maintainance of the building and stands at £25,000. The functional fixed asset reserve to reflect the fact that the fixed assets held are considered essential for the running of the charity and are therefore not available as reserves. The amount held is equivalent to the NBV of assets held at the balance sheet date.
Plans for future periods
Funding for the year 2024/2025 has been secured from existing funding sources for the Charities' core activities and the aim of the Trustees is to further diversify projects in the provision of services across London.
