Trustees' Report For the Year Ended 31 March 2022

The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of Prince Fluffy Kareem ( Registered Charity No 1156400) for the year ended 31 March 2022.

Objectives and activities

a. Policies and objectives

The principal objective of the Charity is to promote humane behaviour towards animals, in particular horses and donkeys in the pyramid area of Cairo. The Charity does this by providing and encouraging appropriate care, protection, treatment and security for animals which are in need of care and attention by reason of sickness, maltreatment, poor circumstances or ill usage and by educating the public in matters pertaining to animal welfare in general and the prevention of cruelty and suffering among such animals.

The Charity provides free medical care for working animals, and operates a foster system for those animals who require medium to long term care, before returning to their owners. If animals are unable to return to work, the Charity will provide a long-term solution, either euthanasia or retirement care, as appropriate. In many cases, the animal will be purchased from the owner in order for the owner to be able to find a new animal and continue to work. The new facilities enable treatment of animals from more remote areas, not just the immediate pyramid area.

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.

Achievements and performance

a. Review of activities

Focus this financial year has been on continuing to rebuild confidence in the charity, be as open as physically possible and increase awareness of every aspect of the charity.

The Covid pandemic, the continued fall in tourism, the introduction of new regulations in the Pyramid area and rising feed costs continues to increase the local poverty and many of the equines receiving care are suffering from various degrees of severe malnutrition, due to the unaffordability of feed. PFK has successfully managed to continue supporting and treating 100s of animals daily as a result of prudent and responsible onsite management.

With the restrictions on travel completely lifted, Miss Thompson was able to travel again regularly to Egypt to take much needed supplies to 'Fluffyland' and during her visits conduct daily public ‘lives” on social media. These have proven incredibly popular showing the work, premises and animals currently at PFK. Whilst Miss Thompson is in the UK Mr Morad has continued to conduct these and personal “Live Fluffy Walks” for sponsors of permanent horses.

Social Media, predominantly Facebook, is still the main source of the charity’s income. Although donations are still lower than previous years, they’ve increased since the last year. Trustees have reasonable expectations that the new very open and honest style operated will continue to regain previously lost support , and attract new donors and donations.

Financial review

a. Going concern

After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees 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. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.

Trustees' Report (continued) For the Year Ended 31 March 2022

b. Reserves policy

The Charity held reserves of £61,338 at the year end (2021: £1,366), consisting mostly of cash at bank, which will be used to fund the Charity's activities. The reserves are all unrestricted and held to meet the Charitable objectives.

c. Results

The Charity had income of £479,421 (2021: £399,733) and expenditure of £419,449 (2021: £423,995) in the year, resulting in a surplus of £59,972 (2021: deficit of £24,262).

Structure, governance and management

a. Constitution

The Charity is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation which is governed by its Constitution dated 27 March 2014.

b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees

Trustees are elected at Trustee meetings under the terms of the Constitution.

c. Organisational structure and decision-making policies

The Board of Trustees have appointed a Head of Operations in Egypt who is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the Charity, with regular communication with the Board. The Trustees are involved in decision making processes, and meet regularly to discuss the Charity's affairs.

d. Risk management

The Trustees have a duty to identify, assess and regularly review the risks to which the Charity is exposed and have established systems and procedures to mitigate those risks

Plans for future periods

The Charity aims to continue to improve its facilities in Cairo by building additional paddocks for horses, storage areas which will enable bulk-buying of food to take advantage of favourable price variances, and eventually purchasing its own land in order to avoid rent increases by landlords. These activities will be prioritised as appropriate, whilst ensuring the Charity is providing the best possible care to animals in Cairo.

Independent Examiner's Report For the Year Ended 31 March 2022

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Prince Fluffy Kareem ('the Charity')

I report to the Charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 March 2022.

Responsibilities and Basis of Report

As the Trustees of the Charity you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act').

I report in respect of my examination of the Charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent Examiner's Statement

Since the Charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.

Your attention is drawn to the fact that the Charity has prepared the accounts in accordance with 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) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn.

I understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Prince Fluffy Kareem

Independent Examiner's Report (continued) For the Year Ended 31 March 2022

This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner's Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity's Trustees as a body, for my work or for this report.

Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 March 2022

1. General information

Prince Fluffy Kareem is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, registered with the Charity Commission (charity number 1156400). The principal office is 4 Grimston Gardens, Folkestone, CT20 2PT.

The charitable activities continue to be that of animal welfare.

The financial statements are presented in pounds sterling and rounded to the nearest pound.

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 Charities Act 2011.

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) published in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

Prince Fluffy Kareem 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

The Trustees assess whether the use of going concern is appropriate, i.e.,whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Charity to continue as a going concern. The Trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of at least one year from the date of authorisation for issue of the financial statements and have concluded that the Charity has adiquate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and there are no material uncertainties about the Charity's ability to contine as a going concern, thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

2.3 Income

All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.

Other income is recognised in the period in which it is receivable and to the extent the goods have been provided or on completion of the service.

Page 10

Prince Fluffy Kareem

Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 March 2022

2. Accounting policies (continued)

2.4 Expenditure

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 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 Foreign currencies

Expenditure is incurred largely in Egyptian pounds, and is translated at the average rate for the calendar month in which it was incurred. Balance sheet items are restated at the closing rate.

2.6 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.

2.7 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.

2.8 Liabilities and provisions

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.

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as a finance cost.

2.9 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.

2.10 Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
