Chief Executive’s Report
I am delighted to report that 2024/25 has been another successful and inspiring year for the Jinnah Day Care Centre. Building on the momentum of recent years, we have continued to see a very strong demand for our services and a high level of participation across all our programmes and activities. Over the past year, our centre has continued to grow as a vibrant, inclusive, and compassionate hub for our community, a place where care, respect, and service remain at the heart of everything we do. Our achievements this year are the result of the dedication, passion, and professionalism of our staff, volunteers, and trustees. Each member of our team has worked tirelessly to support some of the most vulnerable people in our community by offering friendship, care, and a sense of belonging. From delivering daily care and wellbeing sessions to coordinating community events and outreach activities,
their hard work continues to make a genuine difference in people’s lives.
Our volunteers have been the heartbeat of the centre, generously giving their time and energy. Their warmth and kindness have created an atmosphere of trust and comfort for our service users. Likewise, our trustees have continued to provide strong leadership and governance, ensuring that Jinnah Day Care Centre remains accountable, sustainable, and forwardlooking.We extend our sincere gratitude to Bury Council for their continued support and funding. Their commitment enables us to deliver vital services that improve the quality of life for older people, carers, and families across the community.

We will continue to strengthen partnerships, expand our health and wellbeing programmes, and ensure that the centre remains a welcoming place for all.On behalf of everyone at Jinnah Day Care Centre, I want to express my deepest appreciation to our staff, volunteers, trustees, funders, and community partners.

Manager’s Report
Many service users have been affected by the cost-of-living crisis which has intensified, with rising food and energy prices leaving many in financial hardship.
In response, we have focused heavily on welfare and financial inclusion support. Working closely with the Citizens Advice Bureau, we now hold regular surgeries at the Centre to ensure older people are receiving their full benefit entitlements and to provide advice on managing debt. These practical steps are making a real difference, helping many of our community members to feel more secure during such challenging times.
Alongside this, we are determined to grow our activities programme beyond previous levels. We have seen first-hand the life-changing effect that activities such as art, yoga, gardening, exercise and cultural programmes can have on
people’s lives. These opportunities not only improve physical and mental wellbeing, but also build confidence, reduce isolation, and create lasting friendships. Working hand in hand with our service users, we continue to adapt our services to meet changing needs — and this year has been no exception. At such a critical time, we know there is no room to stand still; our focus must always be on efficiency, effectiveness, and meaningful change.
This year has been filled with meaningful events and projects that reflect the diversity and resilience of our community. Among the many highlights which included: Carers Week which was celebrated with special recognition events, wellbeing workshops, and social gatherings to honour the dedication of unpaid carers who provide selfless support to loved ones.The Patchwork Voices Project brought together members of the community to share stories, creativity, and cultural expression through art, crafts, and conversation.A series of Health and Wellbeing Events were organised throughout the year, offering health checks, information sessions, and practical advice on living healthier, happier lives.
As we move forward, Jinnah Day Care Centre remains committed to supporting our service users with compassion and excellence. We will continue to strengthen partnerships, expand our health and wellbeing programmes, and ensure that the centre remains a welcoming place for all.On behalf of everyone at Jinnah Day Care Centre, I want to express my deepest appreciation to our staff, volunteers, trustees, funders, and community partners. Together, we are building a stronger, healthier, and more connected community.

Carers Week Event
The Jinnah Day Care Centre and Bury Carers Hubcelebrated carers week by a joint event held at the Jinnah Centre. There were short speeches from Angela Halliwell Carers information and support Officer. The Deputy Leader of Bury Council Councillor Tamoor Tariq said “Carers Week is a time to honour the quiet strength and tireless dedication of those who care for others. Across our communities, millions of people provide unpaid support to loved ones who are ill, disabled, or elderly. They juggle appointments, medications, and daily tasks, often while sacrificing their own rest, income, and wellbeing”
The Mayor of Bury, Councillor Noel Baylee said, “This week reminds us that carers are not invisible. Their compassion sustains families and strengthens society. Yet caring can also be isolating, emotionally draining, and financially challenging. Carers Week calls on us to listen, to acknowledge their struggles, and to ensure they have the resources and respect they deserve.Whether you are a carer yourself, know someone who is, or work alongside carers, this week is an opportunity to show gratitude. A small word of thanks, an offer of support, or a policy change can help lighten the load. Let us use Carers Week not only to celebrate their contributions but to commit ourselves to building a community where carers feel seen, valued, and supported every day of the year”
The Chief Executive of Jinnah Day Care Centre Akram Baig said “This year’s theme, Caring About Equality, draws attention to the challenges unpaid carers face and the changes needed.Unpaid carers play a vital role in holding our communities together, often stepping in where health and social care services are stretched. They provide essential support to family members and friends, yet all too often, their efforts go unrecognised and unsupported.Carers should have the same rights, choices, and opportunities as anyone else. Achieving this requires commitment and action across all communities where carers are not only recognised, but also empowered to live well, achieve their goals, and thrive both in their caring role and beyond”

Carers Week Event cont.
"Carers week Event at the Jinnah Centre. Each year Bury Carers Hub arrange a variety of events and I thought that it would be nice to involve the Jinnah Centre within the carers week programme as I had visited the centre a few times and got to know Imtiaz and the fabulous service/space that the Jinnah provides. The working relationship with Imtiaz and the team at the Jinnah was so pleasurable and effortless, it was a true collaboration and the original idea quickly and organically grew to become what is now regarding as the flagship event of our programme in 2025.
To reach an audience of 150 people within a grassroots community that is underrepresented within our sector surpassed my expectations. It was not just the largest event of carers week 2025 but the largest event we have ever held. Furthermore, the pride that I felt when hearing the keynote speakers delivering their presentations and raising awareness about carers week and unpaid carers was simple immeasurable. The grand finale of the quiz all based around facts on unpaid carers was inspirational.
The event will live dearly in my heart for a long time but even more importantly is that those 150 people all know have a greater awareness of how to identify a carer and what difficulties carer may have and how to obtain support.
On a more personal note, the event was deemed so successful within Bury Carers Hub that I have now been appointed Lead for Ethnic Minority Backgrounds within the team”
Best regards
Angela Halliwell Carers Information & Support Officer Lead for Ethnic Minority Backgrounds
Service users’ commentson carers week event:
“I just wanted to thank you all so much- what an absolute fabulous day. I know that me and my mother who I care for thoroughly enjoyed it and felt it was a huge success” Mrs T - Bury
“I really enjoyed attending the carers’ event at the Jinnah Day Care Centre. It was a valuable and uplifting experience, giving me the chance to meet others in similar situations and share ideas. As a carer, I learnt so much from the sessions and discussions, and I feel more confident that the knowledge and skills I gained will help me in my caring role. I am very grateful for the opportunity and look forward to future events.”
Mr A - Bury

Pakistan Independence Day Celebration
The Jinnah Day Care Centre came alive with vibrant colours and heartfelt patriotism as the community gathered to celebrate Pakistan’s Independence Day. The event was graced by the Mayor of Bury, the Deputy Leader of Bury Council, Misbah Noreen the Cultural Welfare Attaché from the Pakistani Consulate, Chief inspector Barton from Bury Police, and several local councillors, all of whom delivered inspiring speeches highlighting the values of unity, progress, and cultural heritage.
The Mayor of Bury, Councillor Noel Baylee said he was delighted to be celebrating Pakistan Independence Day with the community at the Jinnah Day Care Centre. He thanked Mr Akram Baig the chief executive of Jinnah Day Care Centre for organising the wonderful celebration for bringing people together, and for helping to pass on heritage and history to the next generation. May the spirit of today inspire us to keep building a borough and a world where diversity is celebrated and communities stand together in mutual respect.
Councillor Tamoor Tariq, Deputy Leader of Bury Council said” Here in Bury, we are fortunate to have a vibrant Pakistani community whose contributions enrich every part of our borough – from business and education to culture, charity and public service. Events like today remind us of the strong bonds of friendship and shared values that connect us all, regardless of background. Misbah Noreen the Cultural Welfare Attaché from the Pakistani Consulate said “It is a great honour and pleasure for me to join you all today at the Jinnah Day Care Centre to celebrate Pakistan’s Independence Day. This day marks not only the birth of a nation but also the resilience, hope and unity of its people”

Pakistan Independence Day Celebration cont.
The Jinnah Day Care Centre in Bury for Pakistan’s Independence Day. The hall was alive with green and white — flags fluttering, lights twinkling, and the gentle sound of Pakistani songs drifting through the air. It reminded me of celebrations from my younger days.
We were honoured by the presence of the Mayor of Bury, the Deputy Leader of the Council, the Cultural Welfare Attaché from the Pakistani Consulate, and our local councillors. Each one spoke from the heart about our heritage and the contribution of our community here. Their words felt like a warm embrace, making me stand a little taller with pride.
Then came the quiz on amazing facts about Pakistan. It was such fun seeing everyone’s faces light up, hands flying into the air with answers, friends whispering clues to one another, and little prizes bringing laughter and smiles. One of the questions was; what is the national flower of Pakistan? No
one put up their hands except me. I shouted out the answer, Yasmin! To my surprise I was right and I won a fantastic prize, a full box of the sweetest delicious Pakistani mangoes which I enjoyed eating with my family that evening!
The day ended with a shared meal. The aroma of freshly cooked biryani, vermicelli sweet pudding and ice cream filled the hall, and we all sat together, talking, reminiscing and enjoying the food. It didn’t feel like an event anymore — it felt like family, a true celebration of Pakistan’s spirit and the friendships we’ve built here in Bury.

Trip to Blackpool and Blackpool Zoo
I had a wonderful day visiting Blackpool Zoo. As soon as I walked in, I was amazed by how many animals there were — lions basking in the sun, playful monkeys swinging from the ropes, colourful birds calling out, and so much more. It felt like stepping into a different world with every enclosure I passed.
The highlight of my trip was meeting the giraffes. From a high wooden platform, I was able to reach out and feed one of them. Its long, gentle tongue wrapped around the food and it looked at me with those big, soft eyes — an experience I’ll never forget.
Another surprise was the Dinosaur Park. The life-size models were so realistic that for a moment I felt like I had travelled back in time. The sound effects and movement made it both exciting and a little bit frightening, but in the best way.
By the end of the day I was tired but full of happiness. It was a trip filled with learning, fun, and memories that will stay with me for a long time.

Blackpool Tower
During our trip to Blackpool, I was finally able to fulfil a lifelong ambition — going up the famous Blackpool Tower and overcoming my fear of heights. On every previous visit I had admired it from below but always been too scared to go inside. This time, thanks to the gentle encouragement of my friends from the Jinnah Day Care Centre, I decided to be brave.
With a beating heart and trembling legs, I stepped into the lift and felt it rise higher and higher. When the doors opened at the top, my breath caught at the incredible view over the sea and the town. Then came the biggest challenge of all: the “Walk of Faith” — the clear glass floor where you can see straight down beneath your feet. My knees shook, but with smiles and support from the Jinnah staff I took a step, then another. Before I knew it, I was standing proudly on the glass, looking out over Blackpool with a mixture of fear, excitement and triumph. What an accomplishment it felt like not just seeing the view but conquering something that had frightened me for years.

Patchwork voices
Patchwork Voices is a creative community cohesion project gathering personal reflections, memories, and creative responses from people across Bury. It is a written exploration inspired by Bury’s rich textile heritage, using the image/metaphor of a patchwork quilt to symbolise how different people, cultures and creative expressions come together to form a vibrant, interconnected community. Each quote or reflection becomes a “square” in the quilt, "stitched" together by shared place and experience. Participants were asked to bring items to a storytelling workshop - items such as photos, a piece of jewellery, a scarf, or something else that tells a story from their home, family, culture, or personal life. This sparked some interesting conversations, which were recorded on a paper patchwork square which will be used in for the final publication and community artwork. The artwork will be displayed in community venues across Bury and the publication will be available at The Met in Bury later on this year.
Lauren Stirzaker Jackson the Patchwork Voices Project Leadorganised the session in such a way that all service users were able to contribute confidently and positively to the project.
“I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you for the kindness, warmth, words and encouragement you showed me during the Patchwork Voices Project . It has truly been a privilege to be part of this journey alongside such dedicated staff, selfless volunteers, and remarkable service users. Together, you created not only a space for creativity and collaboration, but also one of friendship, understanding, and shared purpose. You have a wonderful centre and you do so much for the community. It was inspiring to see what wonderful work you are doing. I absolutely loved working with you all”

Have your say
I’ve been coming here for five years. Everyone is really caring. They are just a phone call away and will always help. I’ve struggled with many issues over the years, family, financial, health and they have supported me through all of it, even taking calls for me. I love coming to creative, knitting and mindfulness on a Tuesday and yoga Wednesday. They now also offer a counselling sessions where I can talk about issues which affect me personally. On Thursday, we do a shared cooking and we take it in turns to make food each week. The food here is absolutely amazing! We have outings too – places like Blackpool and Wales. When the men use the centre, they like to play cards and pool. Sometimes at the end of sessions we will share poetry, which I love. When I was at school I had some additional learning needs, and sometimes they just stuck me in a room with poetry books. But I am happy they did now as it gave me a love of poetry. I love Wordsworth. I just love coming to the Jinnah Day Care Centre - it’s like my second home. I am here all the time!
Mrs I - Bury
Each Thursday we have shared cooking. The ladies watch each other and make food. Giving each other inspiration. There are all kinds of food – English, Indian, Pakistani and Italian. We have a lady who is Albanian Italian so we try so many different world foods!
We have people using the centre from all walks of life. Having the food together really helps to bring them together. They can just chill out and chat about anything they want.
I like living in Bury – I really feel it’s the best place to live. I have never had any bad experiences here.
Mrs T S - Bury
I’ve been coming to the Jinnah Day Care Centre since I retired some years ago. I also introduced my mother-in-law who is now one of our oldest members. I still bring her. I look forward to Wednesdays and Thursdays coming here. The food sharing is brilliant - With the ladiesGroup there is always food involved!
Food is a great way to create community and bring people together. When we lived on Radcliffe Road we shared food with our neighbours. They would invite us to eat for Christmas Day and we would give them to a meal on Eid.
I came to England in 1977 and our family have been successful. I worked for Bury college for 25 years teaching Urdu. My two brothers – one is a doctor and one a solicitor. My three children work as teacher, holistic therapist and solicitor. I was involved in a lot of community work over the years, like organising Eid parties. In fact – the idea for the Jinnah Centre was born in my front room!

Support costs of activities
Support costs of activities for charitable purposes comprises the salary costs of the employees directly involved with project development and other project costs. There are a number of costs, including staffing costs, where it is impracticable to allocate these costs between administration and charitable expenditure and the trustees have allocated such costs to management and administration costs.
Management and administration of the charity
Management and administration costs represent expenditure incurred in the management of the charity's assets, organisational administration and compliance with charitable and statutory requirements.
Governance costs
Governance costs shall include all expenditure directly related to the administration of the charity including expenditure incurred in the management of the charity's assets, organisational administration and compliance with charitable and statutory requirements.
Fixed assets and depreciation
All tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation.
Items of less than £100 are not capitalised.
Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets (less their estimated residual value ) over their estimated useful economic lives.
Mini bus 20% straight line Office equipment 15% reducing balance Furniture, fixtures & fittings 15% reducing balance Kitchen equipment 15% reducing balance Sports equipment 15% reducing balance
Taxation
As a registered charity, the company is exempt from income and corporation tax to the extent that its income and gains are applicable to charitable purposes only. Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the company , and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities.
Funds structure policy
The charity maintains a general unrestricted fund which represents funds which are expendable at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the objects of the charity. Such funds may be held in order to finance both working capital and capital investment.
2 Winding up or dissolution of the charity
If upon winding up or dissolution of the charity there remain any assets, after the satisfaction of all debts and liabilities, the assets represented by the accumulated fund shall be transferred to some other charitable body or bodies having similar objects to the charity.

JINNAH DAY CARE CENTRE Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of the charity
Report of the Independent Examiner to the trustees
on the accounts of the Charity for the year ende 31 March 2025
I report on the financial statements of the Charity for the year ended 31 March 2025 which are set out on pages 19 to 29.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The Charity's trustees, who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law, are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements.
The trustees are satisfied that the audit requirement of Section 144(1) of the Act does not apply and that the accounts do not require an audit in accordance with Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and that no member or members have requested an audit pursuant to section 476 of the Companies Act 2006, and that there is no requirement in the governing document or constitution of the Charity for the conducting of an audit. As a consequence, the trustees have elected that the financial statements be subject to independent examination.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law, or otherwise, and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:-
a) examine the accounts under section 145 of the Act;
b) to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act; and;
c) to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of opinion and scope of work undertaken
I conducted my examination in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales setting out the duties of an independent examiner issued by the Charity Commissioners under section 145(5)(b) of the Act) in relation to the conducting of an independent examination, referred to above. An independent examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and of the accounting systems employed by the Charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning such matters. The purpose of the examination is to establish as far as possible that there have been no breaches of the Charities legislation and that the financial statements comply with the SORP, on a test basis, of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit , and information supplied by the trustees in the course of the examination is not subjected to audit tests or enquiries, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements, and in particular, I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view of the affairs of the charity, and my report is limited to the matters set out in the statement below.
I planned and performed my examination so as to satisfy myself that the objectives of the independent examination are achieved and before finalising the report I obtain written assurances from the trustees of all material matters.
17
Independent Examiner's Statement, report and opinion
Subject to the limitations upon the scope of my work as detailed above , in connection with my examination , I can confirm that
1) In accordance with Regulation 31 of The Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, (The Regulations) the accounts of this incorporated charity are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006;
2) this is a report in respect of an examination carried out under section 145 of the Act and in accordance with any directions given by the Commission under subsection (5)(b) of that section which are applicable;
and that, no matter has come to my attention in connection with my examination which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
(i) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006;
(ii) to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and;
(iii) that the financial statements be prepared in accordance with the methods and principles set out in the Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities
have not been met; or
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in my report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached;
The Examiner's relevant professional qualification or body is:
Certified Practising Accountant
Stephen J McDonald B.Sc., I.C.P.A. Station Chambers 36 Bolton Street Bury Lancs BL9 0LL
The date upon which my opinion is expressed is :- 29 January 2026
