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 trust as set out in its governing document are: 1) The prevention of relief of poverty in Pendle, Lancashire and the surrounding area through the provision of essential food items to individuals and families in need. 2) The advancement of education through providing educational courses which promote, sustain and increase individual and collective knowledge and understanding on topics related to Islamic theology, jurisprudence and spirituality. 3) To advance the Islamic Faith through the holding of weekly prayer meetings where people gather to sing Islamic hymns in praise of God and the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) 4) The promotion of community participation in healthy recreation for the benefit of the inhabitants of Pendle, Lancashire and surrounding area.

We have thus begun a number of online courses related to both religious and social matters, which have had an excellent reception on both a local and national level. We have also continued to expand on our food poverty projects, seeking to find new and innovative ways to assist others in these difficult times. The latter part of the year, particularly since April, has seen a lessening of the restrictions which has allowed us to resume in person activities, particularly for children. Swimming classes resumed, as did the Scouts programme and summer holiday programmes for 5-11 year olds. We were also able to re-establish educational provision and activities for 0-5 year olds through the establishment of weekly Forest School activities centred around meaningful play in natural settings and also Spoken Arabic activities. ## **Financial review** ## **Financial position** Monthly figures are submitted by respective heads of each area (food, sports, education etc.) between days 1 and 5 at the start of each month. The figures are checked against the monthly bank statement by the treasurer and queried/corrected if necessary. Restricted funds are carefully monitored with spreadsheets in place to monitor the expenses in line with the income for the respective restricted pot. ## **Reserves policy** It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds at a minimum level. This provides sufficient funds to cover management and administration and support costs. Page 2 **INSPIRING GRACE** **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2021** ## **Future plans** We will continue to develop existing projects, particularly the Scouts and Swimming activities, with a view to training up more leaders and instructors so we can expand our provision. We will also hope to develop offering classes both online and in person to children and adults alike. ## **Structure, governance and management** Inspiring Grace is a registered UK Charity under charity number 1158044. It is an unincorporated charity. The governing document is a Trust Deed. The trustees named on page 1 have served throughout the year. The trustees have the power to appoint any person to be a trustee in accordance with the provisions of the Trust Deed. An appointed trustee holds office within the limits permitted by law. Approved by order of the board of trustees on 31 May 2022 and signed on its behalf by: Tahir Hussain Anwar - Trustee Page 3 **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF INSPIRING GRACE** ## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Inspiring Grace** I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Inspiring Grace (the Trust) for the year ended 31 July 2021. ## **Responsibilities and basis of report** As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. ## **Independent examiner's statement** Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of _ which is one of the listed bodies. I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material 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 Trust as required by section 130 of the 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.

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 2019)', 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. ## **Taxation** The charity is exempt from 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. Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and gifts and is included in full in the statement of financial activities when receivable. Grants where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant. Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified. The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included. Gifts donated for resale are included as incoming resources within activities for generating funds when they are sold.
