STRATEGIC REPORT
Financial review
Going concern
The trustees have considered the position regarding going concern .
The level of donations received has increase by £18,911 (53%) from the previous year. Expenses excluding donations to the Pakistan charity have increased by £5,606 (24%) from the previous year..The charity has however decreased its grant payments from £63,122 to £39,087 but has still used up some of its reserves . However free reserves remain at a healthy level of £17,829.
The trustees have looked at forecasts and are satisfied that the charity has adequate resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future. The charity has sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they become due and expenditure will not be authorised unless sufficient funds are in place and further capital expenditure has been put on hold. For these reasons the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis for preparing these financial statements,however attention is drawn to note 13 of the accounts.
Principal risks and uncertainties
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to establish systems to mitigate those risks. Internal risks are minimised by the implementation of procedures for the authorisation of all transactions and projects and to ensure compliance with legislation. External risks relate largely to funding as a result the economic climate following the covid pandemic resulting in difficulties in the charity supporting its projects. These risks are minimised as the charity will not commit to funding projects unless sufficient resources are in place and will also look to diversify funding if required.
The procedures are periodically reviewed to ensure they still meet the needs of the charity.
Future plans
Since the year end the charity has continued fundraising and is supporting the schools and dialysis centre which it has helped to set up in Pakistan.The charity also plans to continue its annual Eid Qurbani and food distribution project in different areas of Pakistan.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES - continued
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Material uncertainty with regard to going concern
Attention is drawn to note 13 of the financial statements which indicate material uncertainty relating to the the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that would result if the charity was unable to continue as a going concern.. My opinion is not modified in respect of this matter
I have completed my examination. I confirm that other than the matter referred to above that no other matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving rise to believe:

-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirement of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of the independent examination; or
-

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2023
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, 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 2015)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention..
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, 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 accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.
Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Freehold property - 1% on cost Improvements to property - 5% on cost Plant and machinery - 10% on cost Fixtures and fittings - 10% on cost
Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements where applicable.
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.
Going Concern
The trustees have considered the position regarding going concern .
The level of donations received has fallen from pre pandemic levels but expenses have been kept at a similar level.The charity has however increased its grant payments due to increased demand, so the charity has had to use up some of its reserves to combat the loss of income . However free reserves remain at a healthy level of £26,326.
The trustees have looked at forecasts and are satisfied that the charity has adequate resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future. The charity has sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they become due and expenditure will not be authorised unless sufficient funds are in place and further capital expenditure has been put on hold.
For these reasons the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis for preparing these financial statements,however attention is drawn to note 15 of the accounts.

13. GOING CONCERN
On 19th May 2020, the Charity Commission opened an enquiry into the charity which could lead to sanctions against the charity which, if not resolved, could result in the closure of the charity.This is still ongoing although the charity has taken all necessary steps to rectify all matters of concern. As yet there has been no formal closure letter received
This being the case there is still a material uncertainty as to the charity's ability to continue as a going concern as the Charity Commissioners have the power to close down the charity if they feel that matters have not been resolved satisfactorily..
14. NON INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS SERVICES
In common with many other charities of our size and nature, we use our independent examiners to prepare and submit returns to the tax authorities and assist us with the preparation of the financial statements.
