Teach a man to fish and you feed him for life ## **Our livelihood projects include:** - Cycle Rickshaws for poor individuals - Women empowerment through Zakat grants for to start business - Small grants to start micro businesses **8** **9** WATER SANITATION AND HYGIENE (WASH) WATER SANITATION AND HYGIENE (WASH) A lack of access to clean water and basic sanitation is the second largest cause of death worldwide. 1 in 3 people in the world do not have access to clean drinking water and over 3 million people die every year from waterborne diseases and over 2.5 billion people do not have access to adequate sanitation. ## **COMMUNITY WATER WELL PROJECT** Under the WASH programme, Being Humanitarian runs number of development projects: Through community water wells Being Humanitarian help individuals and communities to transform the way they live by giving them access to clean water. The project begins with identifying the area or region in need and then installing the water well. This project is specially designed for the people living in areas of deep water in Pakistan like district Tharparkar, Khairpur, Malir, Lasbela and Khuzdar where the HDI (Humanitarian Development Index) is also one of the lowest in the world. ## **HAND PUMP PROJECT** Water hand pumps are very simple and small gifts, empowering vulnerable women and children by giving them dignity in accessing water. Particularly women and children spend many hours fetching water from nearby sources, sometimes walking up to 2-3 kilometres in search of drinking water. Many children are unable to go to school as they spend their morning hours fetching water. With this project, shallow water hand pumps are installed to lift the underground water. We target the most vulnerable communities who do not have easy access to clean water in the rural areas. These community water wells are manually dug and then built with a proper framework including brick layering internally, a raised RCC platform covered from each side to support the walls, and a proper drainage for wastewater. ## **WATER FILTRATION & COOLER PROJECT** Increase in the population has created a water crisis which is mounting daily. Water quality and population density are closely linked, the higher the population density, the higher the pollution. It is estimated that nearly 40% of deaths are due to contaminated water. This project is particularly designed to install electric water filtration and cooler units in the schools, hospitals, and common places in urban areas of Pakistan. We believe that access to safe drinking water not only transforms lives but also creates a huge impact on the health of children. **----- Start of picture text -----**

**12** ## MOSQUES & COMMUNITY CENTRES A Mosque is considered a centre of a community in a Muslim society, it allows people to pray together, to celebrate the occasions together, to arrange funerals service, to provide information education facilities for the community. Each mosque is built with water facility, toilets are built adjacent to the mosque to facilitate the local community. Some of our mosques are disable friendly. Majority of the locations selected to construct these mosques are deprived and the communities are poor to build these structures. With the support of donor organisations and individuals we identify the location and construct the communal centre for them. We have built these mosques and centres in Pakistan, Malawi, and Uganda. With the support of donor organisations and individuals we identify the location and construct the communal centre for them. **14** **15** QURBANI & EID GIFT EMERGENCY RESPONSE Every Muslims around the world celebrate Eid ul Adha by sacrificing animals, remembering the sacrifice of Prophet Ibrahim. We are delivering this project on behalf of our donor organisations and individuals in Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Malawi and distribute meat among the poor communities in these areas. In some areas we also distribute Eid gifts to the children and needy communities. The Emergency Response Programme (ERP) is a vital element of our organisation, operating in emergencies to protect life and give dignity in times of crisis. Under this programme we run numerous projects to respond to immediate humanitarian needs. We coordinate with local and national governments and clusters, pair our projects with local needs and develop our framework in accordance with the IFRC Code of Conduct and Sphere standards. Our project guidelines ensure that the vulnerability criteria are addressed. We run numerous projects to respond to immediate humanitarian needs. **----- Start of picture text -----**

The name change to Being Humanitarian was amended by a special resolution on 6 June 2014 and subsequently registered with Companies House on 12 June 2014 and with the Charity Commission on 25 June 2014. The organisation is established as a charitable company under a memorandum of association which establishes the objects and powers of the charitable company and it is governed under its articles of association. ## **Organisation** The trustees meet at least quarterly as a full board. ## **Risk management** A risk register is in place which includes the major risks which are likely to affect the operation of the charity. This is considered at the each meeting of the trustees and any action which may be required is determined. Those risks assessed to be if greatest significance remains those relating to our financial position. These are both internal over level of reserves, and external the ability of our funders in the current economic climate to continue their support of us. Control systems have been put place to ensure rapid action when required, for example when programme is not renewed, and these are monitored by the resources committee between meetings of the trustees. ## **Risk management policy** The trustees confirm that they identify and review on an annual basis the major risks to which the charity is exposed and have established systems to manage these risks and have implemented procedures designed to minimise any potential impact on the Charity should these risks materialise. During the year actual risk assessments were carried out on governance, fundraising, competition, operations, information technology, finances and legal compliance. **20** **21** Incorporating the Director’s Report (continued) Incorporating the Director’s Report (continued) Year ended 31 March 2021 Year ended 31 March 2021 ## **Financial review** ## **Objectives and activities** The main purpose of the organisation is as follows: The relief of financial need and suffering among victims of natural or other kinds of disaster in the form of money (or other means deemed suitable) for persons, bodies, organisations affected in such ways as the trustees shall think fit. ## **Public benefits** The trustees confirm that they comply with their duty in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 and have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the charity commission. Each of the activities described in the following sections contributes towards Being Humanitarian mission which is the relief of financial need and suffering among victims of natural or other kinds of disaster in Pakistan or Bangladesh in the form of money (or other means deemed suitable) for persons, bodies, organisations affected in such ways as the trustees shall think fit. Being Humanitarian deliver it mission through developing the humanitarian capacity of organisation and their staff, through the work of our members and other trained staff and through sharing best practice to support field operations. The increased levels of skills derived from our learning and development programmes provide a wider public benefit to our ultimate beneficiary, who are those affected by disasters and other humanitarian crises, though they will rarely meet the Being Humanitarian directly. ## **Strategic report** The following sections for achievements and performance and financial review form the strategic report of the charity. The Charity received donation and funds £505,660 during the period. Total outgoing resources amounted to £488,230 of which £456,764 was expended on direct charitable activities and £26,562 on the costs of running the office and on other Governance costs. Total available funds at 31 March 2021 amounted to £102,594 of which £29,665 related to restricted funds and £72,929 was available for unrestricted purposes. The Trustees are satisfied that the charity's activities during the period have met their objectives and are satisfied with the financial position at the period end. ## **Reserves policy** The trustees have reviewed the Being Humanitarian's needs for reserves in line with the guidance, issued by the Charity Commission where the term "reserves" describes that part of a charity's income funds that is freely available for its general purposes at the trustees' discretion in furtherance of any of the charity's objects. The Trustees believe that the Being Humanitarian should hold financial reserves {an Emergency Operating Reserve (EOR)} because: i) It has no endowment funding and is entirely dependent for income upon donor funding from year to year which is inevitably subject to fluctuation, and ii) It requires protection against and the ability to continue operating despite catastrophic or lesser but damaging events. The Trustees believe that the minimum level of the EOR should normally be the equivalent of six months' (non project funded) organisational operating costs plus six months' salary commitments for all staff. The intention of the Trustees remains that the EOR should be built up to the desired level in stages consistent with the charity's overall financial position and its need to maintain and develop its charitable activities. This is particularly appropriate in light of the global economic climate and the risks that pose to the robustness of funding. ## **Plans for future periods** The Trustees plan to carry out similar type of projects and activities during the coming year to meet the objectives and aims of the charity. ## **Fundraising activities** The Trustees review the Charity's fundraising activities at the Annual General Meeting and the Executive Committee also monitors progress on fundraising activities at its quarterly meetings to ensure all known sources of funds are approached for financial support. The trustees' annual report and the strategic report were approved on 20 October 2021 and signed on behalf of the board of trustees by: Mr. Z Khan Trustee **22** **23** Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees Year ended 31 March 2021 Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees Year ended 31 March 2021 I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of BEING HUMANITARIAN LTD ('the charity') for the year ended 31 March 2021. ## **Responsibilities and basis of report** As the trustees of the company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

General information** The charity is a public benefit entity and a private company limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales and a registered charity in England and Wales.

Accounting policies** ## **Basis of preparation** The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity. ## **Going concern** There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue. ## **Fund accounting** Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees to further any of the charity's purposes. Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular future project or commitment. Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure declared by the donor or through the terms of an appeal, and fall into one of two sub-classes: restricted income funds or endowment funds. ## **3. Accounting policies** _(continued)_ ## **Incoming resources** All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity; it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income: - income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably. - legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established. - income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless this is impractical to measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated resale value. Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts when received if the value can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers. - income from contracts for the supply of services is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent, in which case it may be regarded as restricted. ## **Resources expended** Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates: - expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, non­ charitable trading activities, and the sale of donated goods. - expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities. - other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities. All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis. ## **Operating leases** Lease payments are recognised as an expense over the lease term on a straight-line basis. The aggregate benefit of lease incentives is recognised as a reduction to expense over the lease term, on a straight-line basis. **28** **29** Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) Year ended 31 March 2021 Year ended 31 March 2021 ## **3. Accounting policies** _**(continued)**_ ## **Tangible assets** Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, unless it reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been recognised as expenditure within the statement of financial activities. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, except to which it offsets any previous revaluation gain, in which case the loss is shown within other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activities. ## **Depreciation** Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows: ## Office Equipment 20% reducing balance ## **Impairment of fixed assets** A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash­ generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned to those units. ## **Government grants** Government grants are recognised at the fair value of the asset received or receivable. Grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the charity will comply with the conditions attaching to them and the grants will be received. ## **3. Accounting policies** _(continued)_ ## **Government grants** _(continued)_ Where the grant does not impose specified future performance-related conditions on the recipient, it is recognised in income when the grant proceeds are received or receivable. Where the grant does impose specified future performance-related conditions on the recipient, it is recognised in income only when the performance-related conditions have been met. Where grants received are prior to satisfying the revenue recognition criteria, they are recognised as a liability. ## **Financial Instruments** A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs. Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted. Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Where investments in shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably, the investment is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in income and expenditure. All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less impairment. Other financial instruments, including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value, unless payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes recognised in the statement of financial activities, with the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relationship. Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the statement of financial activities in which the initial gain was recognised. For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually significant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets are either assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics. Any reversals of impairment are recognised immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised. **30** **31** Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) Year ended 31 March 2021 Year ended 31 March 2021 ## **6.

Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.
