TRUSTEES REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
Objectives and activities
The charity's objects are :
(1) To advance the religions of Islam and Understanding other faiths
(2) To advance the education of Children and Adults in accordance with the Tenets and doctrines of Islam.
The policies adopted in furtherance of these objects are set out below and there has been no change in these during the year.
It aims to meet all religious and cultural needs of Muslims.
In order to achieve this the Centre runs mosques and also holds educational classes for Muslims. It organises conferences on social issues; food is provided for the elderly, needy and the charity's own students. It acts as an advice centre through the mosques and advises on marriage, nationality and social security matters.
The strategies for achieving our objectives is mainly through the provision of a place of worship for the multiethnic community of Muslims in London and in our other centres established in England and Wales; to propogate and expand the teachings and the message of Islam by employing Imams and teachers; to provide cultural and educational facilities and to provide social services.
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.
Grants to other charitable organisations are carefully considered by the Trustees and their decisions are duly minuted. It is a policy to distribute annually to those in need monies collected during the month of the Eid campaign. At other times grants are made to those charities associated with operating similar objectives from branch premises originally set up by the Trustees.
Achievements and performance
The Trustees were satisfied with the charitable and fund-raising activities and achievements during the year. It has been agreed that fund-raising programmes should be more focused in order to bring in additional donations.
Financial review
The Trustees were satisfied with the level of donations received during the year, after considering the effect of transferring the running of certain branches to independent charities, having similar objectives and functions.
Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six month’s expenditure. The trustees considers that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF TAIBA COMMUNITY CENTRE
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2021, which are set out on pages 5 to 9.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
(i) examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
(ii) to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
(iii) to 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:
-
(a) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
-
(i) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
(ii) to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act;
-
have not been met; or
-
(b) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
