CHAIR’S MESSAGE

Once again it gives me great pleasure to have been part of the West London Cultural Centre (WLICC). As trustees, we have admired the hard work that has been put in by the staff. This period has been a very challenging period for us as a charity. With the COVID19 impact, we have had to be very resilient in order to survive these unprecedented events in the modern era.

We firstly thank Allah (SWT) and then our staff and the community without whose support we would not have been able to continue our good work during the COVID19 crisis. Our core activities drastically changed over this period in March 2020, however we maintined various support projects in order to provide help and support to the community.

The WLICC aims to be a pioneer in the establishment of a true Islamic community Centre which is inclusive and serves the community in its widest sense possible.

Further, my fellow trustees have played an active role in guiding, steering and advising, and their vast experience has been critical for which I am grateful. I would also like to thank all the heads of section, without whom the charity could not have functioned effectively. During this year, we worked closed with the local council and followed government restrictions, in order to stop the spread of the COVID19 virus.

We plan to continue to further the work of the Mosque, as the COVID19 situation eases, by raising the standards of delivery of our services and events. Outreaching to the community and addressing their needs will be a key part of the work we do, the world has changed peoples have been impacted due to COVID19 and we need to provide support and help as we transition into the ‘new’ normal.

MANAGER’S REPORT

I have the pleasure of presenting this report to the trustees of the West London Islamic Cultural Centre for another year. This Trustee Annual and Accounts Report cover the period ending 31[st] December 2020 in which I have planned, supervised and directed activities during this challenging period.

We started the year as we usually do, the Mosque was active with classes for all segments of the community, Friday prayers and daily prayers. We had organised several youth activities, and some lectures from international speakers during January and February.

As the news spread of the Covid19 virus spreading it was clear this was not a light matter, and we as a community centre will effected and will need to play a role in stopping the spread.

The timeline of events were as follows:

community of the spread of this deadly virus and also placed rules in the Mosque to follow the council rules.

I feel we have done well in this extraordinary turn of events. The limited staff (as many were on Furlough), and volunteers have been amazing. As a centre that relies on local donations we have been hit very hard, we are grateful to the Trustees for their support. However during this period we have undergone staff reductions and restructuring in order to absorb the financial challenges we are now facing. We continue to work hard and plan carefully so that the community needs are provided for in the best way possible.

Section 7 Department work, activities and achievements

7.1 Sisters Department

The Sisters Quran College was established more than 13 years ago, to serve the holy Quran and act as a means to connect Muslim sisters to the Quran. Our aim is to connect all Muslim sisters to the Qur’an by providing unique educational techniques which integrate the value and the influence of the Qur’an in their lives and enable them to become excellent reciters, prepared to pass on their teaching to future generations. The college has a structured programme for Qur’anic education. Students are assessed according to the levels to ensure that all abilities are catered for.

Our main programme which offers sisters the chance to learn correct Quran reading techniques and offers them lessons on memorising the whole Quran. This was a successful and well-attended programme, and we have had some great feedback from the students. In total we have 250 students split into 23 groups with 14 teachers.

We also offer the following courses: Arabic for Quran we have about 30 students currently and a Sunday circle, which is free and open to the community. A mixture of young sisters and adults enjoy the opportunity, in the masjid, every Sunday to learn about and read the Book of Allah.

As the Covid19 crisis unfolded we moved out lessons online and continued with supporting and teaching our students.

West London Islamic Cultural Centre Annual Report and Financial Statement 2020

| P a g e 12

We held a successful event on 15[th] February about Mental Health and being successful. This was before the COVID19 crisis events unfolded.

We organised youth activities for both girls, in February. The idea was to give the girls a chance to socialise and develop their interests and hobbies in a fund environment.

West London Islamic Cultural Centre Annual Report and Financial Statement 2020

| P a g e 13

With the Covid19 crisis Ramadhan was not the same. We continued our classes online, and facilitated activities online some are examples are below:

With the partial lock down we started to allow students to come to the centre, carefully making sre the foot flow was managed and all social distancing rules were in place. It was a much needed things for the students to be able to meet and see one another even though social distancing was in place.

We conducted an open circle for sisters, which was well attended, providing spiritual guidance and sisterhood during these difficult days. We also organised classes for those who did not want to come to the centre, due to the COVID19 situation – this was done via Zoom.

West London Islamic Cultural Centre Annual Report and Financial Statement 2020

| P a g e 14

We had meetings with the management and made sure there was provision for sisters during the partial uplifting of the lockdown. Our classes continued during this period from the last week of July until the second lockdown in November. Again we switched our classes online when this happened. Various celebrations were done online too.

7.2 Youth and Educational Dept.

This is an important part of our work at the WLICC as we believe that the youth are the present as well as the future. The team organised several activities that catered for young people from different ages and backgrounds. Activities were designed to be relevant, with a mixture of excursions and spiritual workshops to ensure that we addressed their issues and catered to their needs. These activities

We invited some well know speakers to the Mosque and the events were well attended. International speakers from USA, and well known speakers and histrorians from the UK.

These were our last few events before the COVID19 crisis. Once the lockdown period started, we then worked on setting up a youth wing of volunteers to help with outreaching the vulnerable people in our community. Classes were moved online, and we used the social platforms to disseminate information and guidance along with spiritual advice.

West London Islamic Cultural Centre Annual Report and Financial Statement 2020

| P a g e 17

Ahlul Quran Academy (AQA) activities

AQA is where we provide teaching so students can learn how to recite the Quran along with basic Islamic studies. Along with reciting the Quran students can also memorise, and develop the knowledge as growing muslims.

Classes are usually held on site, 4 times a week. However as soon as the council direction was given to close this was done and our classes moved online. This was a big transition for us, staff were trained and parents and students fully updated on the process so that they could continue learning. Our teachers adapted well, and after the initial adjusting phase we were able to provide this.

7 .3 Islamic Services and Support during COVID19

This is one of our core activities. The team have worked hard to make sure five daily prayers are organised. The weekly sermon in English and Arabic – where many people would come from around London to listen. People would often throughout the year want to talk to the imam to seek advice and help on a variety of issues. We would have a weekly open question and answer session to allow people to address issues of concern. Most of these services continued until the Covid19 crisis. Once the level of the calamity became clear we at WLICC took several intiatives to do the following given the crisis:

  1. Keep the community well informed

  2. Improve our social media outreach and increase electronic communication with the community.

  3. Disseminate important government guidelines and advice

  4. Move our classes online

  5. Close the centre as directed by the government during the lockdown periods

  6. Outreach to the vulnerable groups and provide support for them.

We were one of the early centres to draw attention to this issue, and held this emergency meeting, where we informed the community about the pending dangers of CVOID19. It was live streamed on our Facebook page too.

West London Islamic Cultural Centre Annual Report and Financial Statement 2020

| P a g e 18

We provided contact numbers for people to get in touch with our different departments and also if people needed supported they were encouraged to get in touch with us. Again we used our social media platforms and our Whatsapp broadcast group.

| P a g e 19

When the first lockdown took place, we were part of the 17 Main Mosques in London meetings in which the closure due to covid19 was discussed in detail. We liased closely with our local council. This was a very sensitive period with high emotins and we worked together as a group in the interest of the community.

Our Social media content increased to reach out to the community, daily posts, and reminders were done by Trustees and staff. All with the aim to spiritually support the community and provide guidance at this critical time.

Furthermore we organised shopping to be done for the elderly and vulnerable groups.

Our team of volunteers were a mixture of experienced adults and the youth.

We were allowed to open the Mosque after council and government guidelines were made clear – a partial opening of the Mosque. Again we communicated well with our community and made the social distancing rules very clear. Again this was a very sensitive time and was managed very well.

In July Eid Prayers were carried out with social distancing. This was a major task and the staff and volunteers did very well. We implemented a booking system via Eventbrite.

OUR IMAMS

SHEIKH SALAH TAIFOOR

Sheikh Salah has been with the WLICC since the very early days. He is the main Imam and an executive member of the board and a trustee. Over the years, he has gained immense respect from the community by delivering valuable knowledge in an accessible style. Sheikh Salah is seen as a father figure for the Muslim community in Hammersmith and Fulham. He is also an advisor to all staff members in WLICC.

Shaikh Salah was available on the phone for support and during the partial opening led the prayers and gave talks.

Funeral prayers

This has been an integral part of our services. We have a setup organised with local undertakers who prepare the body and send it to our mosque for funeral prayers. We have conducted numerous funeral prayers for people from all walks of life. We often send volunteers to help in the burial process particularly when there aren’t many family members of the deceased present. During Covid19 this was unable to funstion due to the strict government rules. At times one of our imams would go the graveyard to carru ot the funeral service if and when requested.

Marriage Solemnisation Ceremony

Through the year we have families and couples from different parts of London approach us to solemnise their marriages. We have a process where people book appointments. Due diligence is then subsequently done to making sure all parties meet residential requirements and consent to the marriage. We have a specially designated place where families can sit together and the ceremony is conducted. During Covid19 this was no happening, due to the strict goverement rules.

Financial Review

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out on pages below of the attached Financial Statements and comply with applicable laws and requirements of the ‘Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice’ (Charities SORP (FRS102)) issued by the Charity Commission.

Income

WLICC had achieved its highest income £374K 2017, then decreased by 15% to be £319K 2018, then increased by 5.6% to be £337K 2019, however year 2020 the charity’s income sufferred from the pandemic implications and the total income decreased by 18% to be £277K

The decline in income due to the colsure of the centre during the month of Ramadan where 90% of the yearly income generated, however, with the support of the local community after partially opening the centre from August 2020, the charity managed to recover partially the donations lost due to the closuer.

Expenditure

A record decrease on expenditures, apparently, due to COVID-19 implications with the centre closure for many months there were not activities during those months, therefore the totla expenses decreased by 31% from £368k 2019 to £254K 2020.

The positive point is the decrease in expenses is £114 but the decrease in income was £60K, the result of that, the 2020 surplus is £22K, 25% higher than the 2019 surplus £5.6K.

Net assets

The balance sheet for the Charity shows net assets of £28K compared to 2019 £5.6k . The increase is due to reduction of expenditures 25% more the reduction in income which resulted in a surplus of £22K.

Tangible fixed assets

The changes in tangible fixed assets during the period are shown in Note 8 to the financial statements.

Reserves policy

The Board of Trustees has adopted a reserves policy to hold the equivalent of six to nine months' operational expenditure in reserve. This is a best practise as stipulated by the Practical Quality Assurance System for Small Organisations (PQASSO) quality mark guidelines. The actual free reserves in current assets at the end of the year were not enough to service the planned reserve policy and the board is working to improve this during the coming two years.

Trustees’ assessment of Going Concern

West London Islamic Cultural Centre is continueing to strengthen its financial sustainability, unfirtunatly, the organisation did not see much results of these efforts but it showed during 2021 on most of the operations.

The coronavirus pandemic for the year 2020 there is a general consensus that COVID-19 is a nonadjusting event. The charity has no loans liabilities, no debtors irrevocable, there was no need for terminating any employee’s contract.

As it was mentioned in previous year annual report, West London Islamic Cultural Centre did not use any of the government support packages such as grants and loans.

West London Islamic Cultural Centre will review of all areas of the Charity particularly those that are making operating deficits, reducing charitable expenditure. This will also enable the Charity to manage operational and financial risks successfully and to allow us to meet our strategic and operational goals over the short and the medium term.

The following assumptions are made in the financial projections.

Challenging envirnoment and risks are the main factors to increase uncertainty partically, during the reporting year and the years to follow after the COVID-19 pandemic.

However, the board of trustees assessed the going concern of the charity and decided that there are not any signs that West London Islamic Cultural Centre is not a going concern entity.

The Board of Trustees has the responsibility to sign the Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2020. The accounts were approved on the 21st of September 2020.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT

TO THE TRUSTEES OF WEST LONDON ISLAMIC CULTURAL CENTRE

FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 December 2020

I report on the accounts which are set out below

Respective responsibilities of the Trustees’

The trustees (who are also directors of the company for the purpose of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this period under section144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:

Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 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:

a. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the

Charities Act; and

b. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act

2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended

Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities

  1. 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 December 2020

Note 1 &2 Accounting policies

a) Basis of preparation

The financial statements of the Charity, which is a public benefit entity under Financial Reporting Standard 102, have been prepared under the historical cost convention in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard Applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) effective 1 January 2015, the 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) (Charities SORP (FRS102)) and the Charities Act 2011 and Companies Act 2006.

The Accounting Policies are consistent with the previous year. After reviewing the charity’s forecasts and projections, the trustees (who are the directors for the purposes of company law) have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The charity, therefore, continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

The accounts present a true and fair view and no changes have been made to the accounting policies.

No changes to accounting estimates have occurred in the reporting period.

No material prior year error has been identified in the reporting period.

Going Concern

The restrictions arising due to the pandemic did not materially impact the results for the financial year to 31 December 2020 but could impact the results of the years to come, primarily due to the economic implications of COVID-19, therefore, we have taken steps to mitigate the expected financial shortfall with the use of furlough and reduced hours together with cuts to discretionary spend lines, in addition to the ongoing change programme.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’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 trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

The trustees are not aware of any material uncertainties which suggest the charity cannot continue as a going concern. The accounting policies have been consistently applied for all material items.

West London Islamic Cultural Centre Annual Report and Financial Statement 2020

| P a g e 42

b) Incoming resources

Voluntary income is received by way of donations and gifts and is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when West London Islamic Cultural Centre is entitled to the funds, receipt is probable, and the amount can be measured reliably.

Gifts in Kind for which West London Islamic Cultural Centre accepts full responsibility for distribution are included in income at the value to the charity when the good are received and under the control of West London Islamic Cultural Centre. Amounts are recognised in inventory until distributed at which point the relevant cost is released to the statement of financial activities.

The receipt in advance of a grant for expenditure that takes place in a future accounting period is accounted for as deferred income and recognised as a liability until the accounting period in which West London Islamic Cultural Centre will expend the resource.

c) Resources expended

Resources expended are recognised on an accrual’s basis.

Fundraising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of disseminating information in support of the charitable activities.

Support costs are those costs incurred indirectly in support of expenditure on the programmes of the Charity. Allocation of support costs and staff costs have been proportionated to the total of programme costs and corresponding thematic programme area.

Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the Charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements. They include legal advice for trustees, cost of trustees' meetings, audit fee and internal audit costs. These costs are allocated in the same way as other support costs.

c) Foreign currencies

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the rate of exchange at the time of the transaction.

Foreign currency balances are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date.

Foreign currency gains and losses are recognised through the Statement of Financial Activities for the period in which they are incurred.

d) Investment property: N/A.

e) Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost less residual value of each asset over its expected useful life, as

West London Islamic Cultural Centre Annual Report and Financial Statement 2020

| P a g e 43

Leasehold properties Straight line over the life of the lease Freehold properties 5% straight line Computers and software 25% straight line Fixtures and fittings 25% straight line Office equipment 25% straight line Motor vehicles 15% straight line

Assets that are subject to amortisation are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate.

f) Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which include buildings and equipment necessary for the proper functioning of the Charity and other funds available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the Charity's objectives.

Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Trustees for particular purposes. Restricted funds are funds which are subject to

specific restrictions as imposed by the donor or nature of the appeal.

g) Taxation

As a registered charity, West London Islamic Cultural Centre is exempt from taxation of income and gains to the extent that its income and gains are applicable to charitable purposes only.

h) Key judgements and estimation uncertainty

The preparation of the financial statements requires the Trustees to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements. If in the future such estimates and assumptions, which are based on the Trustees' best judgment at the date of the financial statements, deviate from the actual circumstances, the original estimates and assumptions will be modified as appropriate in the year in which the circumstances change. The Trustees' do not believe that there are any significant areas of estimation uncertainty that need to be disclosed.

The accounts reflect the conditions that existed at the balance sheet date

COVID-19 pandemic itself not an accounting event Rather, it is the impacts caused by COVID-19 that can result in financial reporting implications.

The implications of COVID-19 on the organisation are:

Therefore, the board of trustees decided that no material uncertainties that cast significant doubt on the organisation’s ability to operate under the going concern basis need to be disclosed in the financial statements.
