the charity as set out in its
governing document|Para 1.17|The relief of financial need and suffering
among victims of natural or other kinds of
disaster in the form of money (or other
means deemed suitable) for persons,
bodies, organisations, and/or counties
affected, including provision of medical aid.
The relief of financial hardship, either by
generally, or individually, of people living in
Iraq, by making grants of money for
providing or paying for items, services or
facilities.
The relief of homeless orphans by providing
funds for their accommodation and care.| |Summary of the main
activities in relation to those
purposes for the public
benefit, in particular, the
activities, projects or services
identified in the accounts.|Para 1.17 and
1.19|**Purpose**
Al Anwar Al Najafia – UK has offices based
in and around the conurbation of
Manchester.
It is a grant-making and poverty relief
organisation which has been using social
action as an experience-based mechanism
to develop the leadership, communication
and other interpersonal capacities of its
participants, who come from deprived and
marginalised communities.
We are in the process of finding a more
permanent location and an office space and
to help setup a foodbank.| ||**Grants**
We issue grants in cash and in kind to help
those who have a specific health, or social
needs.
We grew our activities and income from
previous years through recruitment of new
and more active volunteers.
We spent the large majority of these
donations for the purposes of issuing grants.
No Trustee or volunteer took any salary
except for the reimbursing for personal
expenses
**Major risks and mitigations**
The charity chairman had been seriously
unwell for a few years now.
Last year, two new Trustees joined the
charity and worked hard to restore much of
the charity’s operations and plans.
We forged links with several other local and
national charities to offer us resilience,
expertise and continuity in being able to
sustain our operations despite major
disruptions.
We have plans to recruit a paid employee
who will take care of the daily operations of
the charity.
With the help of professional accountants
and experts in charity law we have been
working on strengthening our compliance
process, as well as controls. Within the
organisation.
The charity income increased over two-fold
from the previous year. This was primarily
due to the energy of the new trustees who
restored confidence in the organisation.

whether the trustees have
had regard to the guidance

Commission on public

The Trustees have worked hard to put
together the reports and accounts for the
year to ensure we are compliant and are
