-

Activities and achievements
Health and Fitness Support
Healthy eating and living is a great challenge faced by the immigrant communities from subcontinent. Evidence shows that Indian communities suffer from illnesses such diabetes and blood pressure due to their eating habits and lack of physical exercise.
The aim is to create awareness of the need for a healthy lifestyle, a balanced diet and to provide selfrun fitness clubs such as swimming, badminton and walking club for men and women.
As a part of this project, we run women fitness classes and healthy eating sessions for mothers and students. We also believe that this project will also help to reduce the strain on the NHS.
Community activities
Our community hall and rooms provide a valuable educational and recreational resource to all in our local community. A wide variety of activities are organised and take place from our community centre.
Hall and rooms
Our hall and meeting rooms are available for use by local groups and organisations. Local charities are encouraged to make use of our meeting rooms.
Madani Primary School
The Madani Primary School was registered with DfE (DfE registration number: 851/6000) as an independent faith school to provide education to 5 to 11 years old boys and girls.
From 15[th] of September 2014, Madani Primary School has started its journey with 18 pupils (boys and girls). Now the school has 36 pupils on the roll.
The mission is to deliver high quality education and services within a secure Islamic environment. Our pupils should enjoy a positive school experience and achieve to their full potential. All children will leave school being mindful of their accountability to Allah, be confident in their identity as Muslims and have a keen desire to make a worthwhile contribution to the social, political and economic well-being of the humanity.
The school curriculum is broad and balance. The school teaches British national curriculum and Islam. We are committed to inculcating our students with the principles of justice, equality, tolerance and respect for others.
Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities
The charity trustees are responsible for preparing an annual report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the charity trustees to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Acts. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of The Madani Academy Portsmouth Ltd
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 January 2022, which are set out on pages 7 to 11.
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 and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
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
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of examiner’s statement
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 qualified statement
Subject to the limitations upon the scope of my work as detailed above, in connection with my examination, I can confirm that in the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention

Notes to the accounts
1. Accounting policies
(a) Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared under the historic cost convention. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities Acts.
(b) Funds structure
Unrestricted income funds comprise those funds which the trustees are free to use for any purpose in furtherance of the charitable objects. Unrestricted funds include designated funds where the trustees, at their discretion, have set aside resources for a specific purpose.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by the donor or the terms of a specific appeal at Friday prayers or under the terms for public collection.
Further details of each fund are disclosed in notes 14.
(c) Incoming resources
All incoming resources are recognised once the charity has entitlement to the resources, it is certain that the resources will be received and the monetary value of incoming resources can be measured with sufficient reliability. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
Voluntary income is received by way of donations at Friday prayers and grants, and is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable. Grants, where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.
Incoming resources from grants, where there are performance or service deliverables required by the terms of the grant, are accounted for as the charity earns the right to payment through its performance. Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified. The value of services donated by volunteers has not been included in these accounts, except where the services provided are in the nature of professional services where a fee would otherwise be charged, in which case the donated service is valued at their chargeable rate.
Investment income is included when receivable.
Incoming resources from charitable trading activity is accounted for when earned.
(d) Resources expended
Liabilities are recognised as resources expended as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to the expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified
under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category.
(e) Irrecoverable VAT
Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of resources expended for which it was incurred.
(f) Allocation of overhead and support costs
Support costs include administrative office functions, and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, allocating property costs on floor areas, staff costs by the time spent and other costs on a measure of usage.
(g) Costs of generating funds
Costs of generating funds are those costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, or incurred in trading activities undertaken to raise funds.
(h) Charitable activities
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both the direct pay and non-pay costs and support costs relating to those activities.
(i) Governance costs
Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity, and include its audit fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity including trustee expenses.
