The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The objectives of the charity as set out in the company's Memorandum of Association are the promotion of education and the relief of poverty throughout the world by the establishment of centres of education and the promotion of self sustaining initiatives in impoverished areas, including but not exclusively those relating to farming, manufacturing and health projects and to do such ancillary things which will support these objects.

The strategies employed to achieve the charity's objectives are to accumulate reserves by fund raising activities including appeals to the public and then using these funds to achieve the charity's objectives. The charity's aims, objectives and activities are reviewed each year. This review looks at the activities undertaken in the previous year to ensure that benefits have been brought to those groups the charity was set up to help, the review also helps to ensure that its activities remain focused on the stated aims and objectives. Reference has been made to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the aims and objectives and in planning the charity's future activities. In particular the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.

STRATEGIC REPORT

Achievements and performance

During the year the charity has raised funds which were used to fund its objectives.

During the period concerned the charity donated funds to its sister charity ,Charr Yarr Welfare Foundation, Pakistan to assist with wages,food and operational expenses of the two Mosques/schools in Pakistan which the charity helped to found.Funds are also donated to the Kazmian project which is an Institute in the city of Lahore which provides free education for girls and boys.

The charity has also supported the dialysis centre in Mandi Bahauddin , Punjab which has been operational since December 2016.Funds have been provided to assist in the running expenses of the clinic including salaries and to provide medical supplies

The charity also supported the annual Qurbani and food distribution project in Pakistan and during the month of Ramadan provided funds for animals, transportation, labour and other costs in the camps it supported. By undertaking these projects the charity has made a significant beneficial difference to numerous individual lives and met its stated aims and objectives.

During the year no volunteers were used as the trustees were able to carry out the tasks required.

STRATEGIC REPORT Financial review

Going concern

The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis as although the charity has net current liabilities of £1,918 the shortfall will be covered by income streams shortly after the year end.and it is the intention to build up the free reserves of the charity over the coming years.

The trustees have looked at forecasts and are satisfied that the charity has adequate resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future.

Donations to the overseas charity will be restricted until the charity is able to afford to do so and a tight control will be maintained over expenditure. For these reasons the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis for preparing these financial statements.

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 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.

The charity has purchased a property in Bradford and plans at some stage to convert this into an education centre to provide quality Islamic education for girls and women and to create courses and activities to engage more with the community. It also wants to utilise the building to provide a food bank service for the community

The charity has also been involved in a project for building two separate educational facilities for boys and girls, a mosque and a hospital.These projects started in previous years and are ongoing projects.
