TRUSTEE DIRECTORS' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
The Trustee Directors, who are also the directors of the charity for the purpose of the Companies Act, present their annual report together with the audited financial statements of the charity for the period 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2022. The Annual report serves the purposes of both a Trustee Directors' report and a directors' report under company law. The Trustee Directors confirm that the Annual report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the 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 (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019).
Since the charity qualifies as small under section 383, the Strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
A. POLICIES AND OBJECTIVES
The objectives of the charity are to maintain land for the purpose of the burial of Muslims and to act on behalf of the Muslim community to meet their needs as regards the procedures and practices relating to the interment of the deceased. In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustee Directors have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit.
B. STRATEGIES FOR ACHIEVING OBJECTIVES
The charity owns for the above purpose: + the freehold interest of approximately 21.5 acres of land situated at Elmbridge Road, Hainault,
-
the freehold interest in 12.5 acres of land at 1-2 Five Oaks Lane, five minutes drive from Elmbridge Road, which became operational in 2017, plus some further land purchased adjacent to the site during 2019,
-
the freehold interest in almost 30 acres of land at Maylands Field which is situated approximately twenty minutes drive from Elmbridge Road.
C. ACTIVITIES UNDERTAKEN TO ACHIEVE OBJECTIVES
The cemetery continued with its work of providing burial and funeral services to the Muslim community during the year at its Elmbridge Road and Five Oaks Lane sites.
Major works at the Maylands site relating to the construction of buildings, landscaping, burial areas and roads for vehicular access are in progress and nearing completion. Maylands is expected to be ready at some stage during the early part of 2024. Burials at this new site are expected to commence once the burial capacity at Five Oaks Lane is exhausted.
We have undertaken viability studies on a number of new sites which have not come to fruition. We continue to look for further sites to continue to meet the burial needs of the community.
A key priority for the charity is to achieve sufficient returns on its funds, balancing the need to do this against the need to maintain high levels of liquidity to fund further site acquisitions as and when the opportunity arises. To this end, the charity committed a further sum of approx. £4.5m towards further investment properties and investment in joint ventures.
Maintenance Provision
As explained in note 20 to the Accounts, a key obligation for the charity is the maintenance of graves for a period of 50 years from the date of burial. Now that the charity has been operational for over 20 years, there is a much better view on the resources required to maintaine graves at each of the charity’s operational sites. These Accounts as a result reflect a significant increase in the grave maintenance provision to take into account this reassessment of the resources required for maintenance.

TRUSTEE DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES (CONTINUED)
D. SOCIAL INVESTMENT POLICIES
The charity has made a number of investments, the purpose of which is to help fund its activities in particular the future long term maintenance requirements of cemeteries.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
A. FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES AND INCOME GENERATION
In addition to its income from burial fees, the charity continued during the year to receive donations, which it used to help fund its activities. The details of income and expenditure are shown in the attached Statement of Financial Activities.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
A. GOING CONCERN
After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustee Directors have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
B. RESERVES POLICY
The Trustee Directors consider the maintenance of reserves to fund the future maintenance of the cemetery, including in particular the graves, to be of paramount importance and therefore a key priority. The accounts include provisions for future grave maintenance which totals £21,632,072 (2021 - £17,141,784) at the year end.
In addition, as circumstances permit, the Trustee Directors intend to build a portfolio of investments to provide income for the upkeep and maintenance of the cemetery including the graves.
Burial fees are reviewed regularly to ensure that adequate funds can be retained by the charity for future upkeep and maintenance.
Unrestricted reserves at the year end total £11,946,429 (2021 - £12,883,168) , and restricted reserves at the year end total £59,302 (2021 - £Nil) .
C. PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The Trustee Directors have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate our exposure to the major risks. The Trustee Directors have assessed the risks and uncertainties relating to the Coronavirus and the challenges this represents and have put in plans to mitigate these risks with safety as a priority.

TRUSTEE DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
A. CONSTITUTION
Gardens of Peace Muslim Cemetery is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Memorandum of Association.
B. METHODS OF APPOINTMENT OR ELECTION OF TRUSTEE DIRECTORS
The management of the charity is the responsibility of the Trustee Directors who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Memorandum of Association.
C. ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE AND DECISION-MAKING POLICIES
The charity was incorporated as a company limited by guarantee in 2013 and, with effect from 1 January 2014, had transferred to it the assets of Gardens of Peace Muslim Cemetery Trust, a charity formed as a trust. The company is governed by a memorandum and articles of association. In addition a novation agreement was entered into between the Trust and the company under which the company assumed the liabilities of the Trust with effect from the same date.
The purpose behind the above change was only to change the legal basis of the charity from a Trust to a company limited by guarantee as the Trustee Directors believe the latter to be a more appropriate form of constitution.
Trustees' Meetings are held regularly. There is regular email and phone contact with the cemetery managers and staff depending on needs.
D. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Trustee Directors have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the charity, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
MEMBERS' LIABILITY
The Members of the charity guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £10 to the assets of the charity in the event of winding up.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GARDENS OF PEACE MUSLIM CEMETERY
OPINION
We have audited the financial statements of Gardens of Peace Muslim Cemetery (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 December 2022 which comprise the Statement of financial activities, the Balance sheet, the Statement of cash flows and the related notes, 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:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 December 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
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 Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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 Trustee Directors' 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 charitable company'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 Trustee Directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GARDENS OF PEACE MUSLIM CEMETERY (CONTINUED)
OTHER INFORMATION
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual report other than the financial statements and our Auditor's report thereon. The Trustee Directors are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 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 course of 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 this gives rise to 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
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the Trustee Directors' report is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES
As explained more fully in the Trustee Directors' responsibilities statement, the Trustee Directors (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustee Directors 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 Trustee Directors are responsible for assessing the charitable company'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 Trustee Directors either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF GARDENS OF PEACE MUSLIM CEMETERY (CONTINUED)
AUDITOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
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:
To identify risks of material misstatement due to fraud (“fraud risks”) we assessed events or conditions that could indicate an incentive or pressure to commit fraud or provide an opportunity to commit fraud. Our risk assessment procedures included:
-
Obtaining an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the charitable company and the sector in which they operate.
-
Obtained an understanding of how the charitable company are complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks by making enquiries to management of the company’s accounting department, and management itself.
-
The susceptibility of the charitable company’s financial statements to material misstatement caused by fraud or other irregularities were assessed with the following procedures:
-
Identifying and assessing the design effectiveness of controls which management have in place to prevent and detect fraud
-
Understanding how those charged with governance considered and addressed the potential for override of controls and management biases
-
Identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any journal entries posted with unusual account combinations
-
Assessing the extent of compliance with the relevant laws and regulations
-
Assessing the extent to which pressures existed which may have increased the risk of fraudulent revenue recognition
Potential fraud risks that had been identified throughout the planning and commencement of the audit were communicated to the audit team.
The inherent limitations of audit present an unavoidable risk that we, the auditors, may not have detected some material misstatements within the financial statements despite proper planning and performance of our duties as auditors. Equally, there remains a risk of the non-detection of fraud which could involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. The audit procedures carried out are designed to detect material misstatements within the financial statements, and as such we take no responsibility for preventing non-compliance or fraud and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditor's report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
The charity is a private company limited by guarantee and was incorporated in England and Wales. The members of the company are Trustee Directors named on page 1. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to a sum not exceeding £10 per member of the charity. The charity's registered office is 77 Vaughan Gardens, Ilford, Essex, IG1 3PB. The nature of the charity's operations and principal activities are to maintain land for the purpose of burial of Muslims and to act on behalf of the Muslim community to meet their needs as regards the procedures and practices relating to the interment of the deceased.
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
2.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Gardens of Peace Muslim Cemetery meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
2.2 GOING CONCERN
There are no material uncertainties about the charity's abilty to continue.
2.3 INCOME
Burial fees are recorded as income for the period in which they fall due based on the date of burial. Investment income is allocated to the appropriate fund.
Donations are shown as income in the period in which they are received.
Monies received as advanced payments for burial fees are taken to creditors in the balance sheet and will be taken to revenue funds as and when the burial takes place, to offset against the costs incurred relating to the burial.
2.4 EXPENDITURE
Resources expended are recognised in the period in which they are incurred.
Charitable activities and Governance costs are costs incurred on the charity's educational operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
2.4 EXPENDITURE (CONTINUED)
Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the charity to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
2.5 TAXATION
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
2.6 INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND AMORTISATION
Intangible assets are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Amortisation is provided on intangible assets at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset on a straightline basis over its expected useful life.
The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Trademarks - 20 years
2.7 TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS AND DEPRECIATION
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition are included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives .
Depreciation is provided on the following bases:
- Freehold land and buildings Not depreciated - Plant and machinery Straight line over the assets' estimated useful life

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
2.8 INVESTMENTS
Investments in subsidiaries are valued at cost less provision for impairment.
Investments in joint ventures are stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Distributions received from the investment shall be recognised as income in the Statement of financial activities.
2.9 INVESTMENT PROPERTY
Investment property is carried at fair value determined annually by the Trustee Directors and derived from the current market rents and investment property yields for comparable real estate, adjusted if necessary for any difference in the nature, location or condition of the specific asset. No depreciation is provided. Changes in fair value are recognised in the Statement of financial activities.
2.10 DEBTORS
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
2.11 CASH AT BANK AND IN HAND
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
2.12 LIABILITIES
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
2.13 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
2.14 PENSIONS
The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the charity to the fund in respect of the year.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
2.15 FUND ACCOUNTING
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustee Directors in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND AREAS OF JUDGMENT
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The charity makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results.
Critical areas of judgment:
The valuation of investment property at £2,599,907 (2021 - £2,039,523) have been made.
The estimate of future grave maintenance costs totalling £21,632,072 (2021 - £17,141,784) have been made.

GRAVE MAINTENANCE
The Trustee Directors recognise an obligation to maintain graves at the cemetery for a period of 50 years from the date of burial. Accordingly a provision is included in these accounts to cover the estimated cost over a 50 year period of maintaining each grave at the cemetery from the year of burial. The estimated cost is reviewed each year to take into account wages and other cost inflation. The charge against income in the year represents the estimated cost of maintenance of burials undertaken during the year as well as adjustments relating to wages and other cost inflation in relation to burials in earlier years.
