TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

Financial Review

The incoming resources for the year amounted to £695,257 (2021: £575,377). This is an increase following
recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. EIC AL-MASJID Trust is still extremely grateful to all the
supporters and expects the same support in the future.
Within incoming resources is £134,340 (2021: £131,840) relating to rent received from the letting out of
the Charity’s investment property.
The Charity held the following events in the year:
The Centre provided private counselling sessions with the imams including marriage counselling, and
advice on different aspects of Islam. The Centre also organised visits by the imams and other worshipers to
patients in local hospitals at the request of the hospitals, the patients and family members. The Charity also
played an active role in the North London Muslim council.
Adult Arabic and Quran classes were also provided on a regular basis throughout the year.
Expenditure on charitable activities in the year amount to £289,692 (2021: £317,248) whilst total
governance costs incurred in the year came to £19,657 (2021: £34,622). During the year, the properties of

EIC AL-MASJID TRUST

TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

In 2021, the Trust identified an instance whereby proceeds from the funeral facility services had not been
accounted for in the accounting records. This has since been adjusted for accordingly in previous years’
financial statements and was included within other debtors. In accordance with accounting regulations
which require debtors to be assessed for impairment at each balance sheet date, a full provision was made
against this balance as at 31 December 2021. Despite this, the Trustees are proactively pursuing the full
amount owed.

Outlook for 2023

In the coming year, the Trust is expected to continue with its fundraising activities to improve facilities for
its users especially for the ladies and the youth. The wudhu and toilet facilities are in need of refurbishment
and to incorporate a water recycling plant would cut down on the water bill.

Roof for all buildings require extensive repair. ���� art of the mosque building has been attended to and the rest of the investment property still requires repair. The trustees are getting several quotes before making the final decision on the firm to engage for these works.

The Trustees are looking to hold the following activities in 2023:

Reserves policy

The Trustees have not yet formalised a specific reserves policy, beyond the requirement that reserves levels
are regularly monitored to ensure that sufficient reserves are maintained to meet anticipated future needs.

Investment policy

The Charity has no investments apart from that of an investment property and cash deposits retained with
major UK retail banks.

Trustees’ responsibilities statement

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to
the accounts and comply with the charity’s governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting
and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing
their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of
Ireland (FRS 102).

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF EIC AL-MASJID TRUST FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of EIC AL-MASJID Trust (the ‘Charity’) for the year ended 31
December 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the cashflow
statement and the notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United
Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting
Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting
Practice)’.
In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and
applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’
responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the
Charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements
in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in
accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of
accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events
or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Charity’s ability to
continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are
authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in
the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial
statements and our auditors’ report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information. Our
opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of
assurance conclusion thereon.
8

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF EIC AL-MASJID TRUST FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information
is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise
appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material
misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial
statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material
misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of
the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees’ report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities Act 2011
requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities, the Trustees are responsible for the
preparation of the financial statements which give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the
trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the Charity’s ability to
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going
concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the Charity or to cease operations,
or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
9

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF EIC AL-MASJID TRUST FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditors under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance
with regulations made under section 154 of that Act.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our
opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can
arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could
reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial
statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design
procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of
irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities,
including fraud, is detailed below.
Based on our understanding of the Charity and the industry in which it operates, we identified that the
principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to the acts by the Charity, which were
contrary to applicable laws and regulations including fraud, and we considered the extent to which non
compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and
regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Charities Act
2011. We evaluated management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the
financial statements (including the risk of override of controls), and determined that the principal risks were
related to inflated income.
Audit procedures performed included: review of the financial statement disclosures to underlying
supporting documentation, enquiries of management and testing of journals and evaluating whether there
was evidence of bias by the Trustees that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non -
compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial
statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, the risk of not detecting a material
misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may
involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through
collusion.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the
Financial Reporting Council’s website at: http://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description
forms part of our auditor's report.

calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected
useful life as follows:

Restricted fixed assets funds are resources which are to be applied to specific capital purposes.
Restricted general funds comprise all the resources which are to be applied for specific purposes for
which the donors have contributed to.

market itself.
