Trustees’ Report
The trustees present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 January 2024. The trustees who are also directors for the purpose of company law who served during the year and up to the date of this report are set out on page 1.
Structure, governance, and management
Objectives and activities
Primary objectives and activities of the charity are to provide religious education, training, and related community services for the local community living within Stockport and outskirts and there has been no change during the year.
Achievements and performance
Charity is meeting all its objectives as set above. Arrangements to purchase next door building known as Pegasus House are in hand and the finance required is being raised by means of general appeal to Muslim community and a holding deposit of £30K has been paid to the vendors.
Financial review
Financial position of the company is fairly strong as ever. All objectives are being met and according to the set budgets. Donations to other UK based charities were made during year.
Statement as to disclosure of information to reporting accountants
In so far as the trustees are aware:
-there is no relevant accounts information of which the charity’s accountants are unaware: and
-the trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make them aware of any relevant accounts information and to establish that the accountants are aware of that information.
Statement of trustees’ responsibilities
The trustees are responsible for preparing the annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and UK Generally Accepted Accountancy Practices.
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the surplus or deficit of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
Page 2
HMCT
Trustees’ Report (Continued)
-make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
-prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity 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 charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements 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.
Small company provisions
This report has been prepared in accordance with the small companies’ regime under the Companies Act 2006.
Approved by the Board 3[rd] October 2024 and signed on its behalf by:

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of
HMCT
I report on the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 January 2024, which are set out on pages 5 to 11.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 43(2) of the Charities Act1993 (the 1993 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
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 43 of the1993 Act;
-follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 43(7) (b) of the 1993 Act; and
-state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
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 no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a' true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
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 requirements,
- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
-to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 386 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting by Charities have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31[st] January 2024
1. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice' Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP 2005)', issued in March 2005, the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008) and the Companies Act 2006.
Fund accounting policy
Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees' discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.
Further details of each fund are disclosed in note 15.
Incoming resources
Voluntary income including donations and grants that provide core funding are of a general nature and is recognised where there is entitlement, certainty of receipt and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Resources expended
Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to the expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to that category.
Costs of generating funds are the costs associated with attracting voluntary income. During the year, HMCT mainly continued supporting a local charity to provide help to disadvantaged sector of community anywhere in the World.
Support costs
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, and per capita staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
Fixed assets
Individual fixed assets are initially recorded at historic cost and periodic valuation is seldom taken.
Depreciation
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:
Fixtures, Fittings & Equipment 20% on writing down basis
