For the year ended 31 December 2024
The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Company for the 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2024. The Annual report serves the purposes of both a Trustees' report and a directors' report under company law.

Since the Company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the Strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.
The Company also trades under the names Islamwise.

Achievements and performance (continued)
Conveying Islam
Islamwise has always placed a strong emphasis on sharing the message of Islam with clarity and compassion. In 2023, we were privileged to facilitate 141 Shahadahs, helping individuals take the momentous step of embracing Islam. This achievement is a testament to the effectiveness of our outreach efforts and the trust that individuals place in our organisation during such a significant spiritual journey.
Our dedication to disseminating knowledge about Islam was further demonstrated by the distribution of 46,144 dawah leaflets, booklets, and Qur’ans. These materials served as valuable resources for individuals seeking to understand Islam, whether they were new Muslims or those simply curious about the faith.
In addition to physical distributions, we embraced the digital age by engaging in meaningful conversations with nonMuslims through various online platforms. Our increased activity on social media, coupled with the production of compelling video content, allowed us to reach a wider audience than ever before. Our social media campaigns were not only successful in conveying the core tenets of Islam but also in fostering respectful dialogue and understanding.
As a result of these efforts, our social media following grew significantly, with an average increase of 14% on both Facebook and Instagram. This growth reflects our ability to connect with diverse audiences and highlights the expanding reach of our message.
Supporting new Muslims
In 2024, we continued to provide comprehensive support to new Muslims, ensuring they had the resources and guidance needed to navigate their new faith journey. We distributed new Muslim gift packs, which included essential items and resources to assist them in their early days as Muslims. Moreover, our personalised mentoring services were instrumental in providing one-on-one support, helping new Muslims feel welcomed and supported within the community.
Recognising the ongoing challenges posed by the pandemic, we introduced new chat groups and increased our online interactions to maintain a sense of community and accessibility. These digital initiatives allowed us to continue offering our services without interruption, ensuring that new Muslims could always find the support they needed.
Our commitment to fostering a sense of belonging was further demonstrated through the organisation of 50 meetups throughout the year. These gatherings included our monthly sisters’ gatherings, community kitchens, and iftar events during Ramadan, all of which provided opportunities for new Muslims to connect with others and strengthen their sense of community. Additionally, we facilitated three Nikkah ceremonies free of charge, enabling reverts to begin their marital journeys within the framework of Islam.
To celebrate and mark the importance of Eid, we hosted gatherings for both Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha at prominent venues such as Edgbaston Cricket Club and Green Lane Masjid. These events were well-received and provided a joyful and inclusive atmosphere for all participants.
Our social media platforms played a crucial role in showcasing the positive impact of our support services. Through stories and testimonials, we highlighted the journeys of new Muslims, demonstrating the transformative power of our work.

Achievements and performance (continued)
Education
Education remains at the heart of our mission, and in 2024, we continued to provide a range of educational opportunities tailored to the needs of new Muslims. We offered live webinars on topics specifically designed to address the challenges faced by new Muslims. These sessions were well-attended and provided valuable insights and guidance on various aspects of Islamic practice and belief.
In addition to live sessions, we recorded and produced educational video series, making our content accessible to a broader audience at their convenience. This initiative ensured that those unable to attend live sessions could still benefit from our educational resources.
A significant aspect of our educational outreach involved partnering with Green Lane Masjid to offer free one-on-one Quran lessons. This partnership allowed us to provide personalised Quranic education, ensuring that each student received the attention and support they needed to progress in their studies. Over the course of the year, we provided more than 200 hours of group Arabic courses and 343 hours of online Quran lessons, demonstrating our commitment to making Islamic education accessible to all.
Our Quran classes regularly served over 50 individuals, with more than 20 people completing their learning on how to pray. This achievement underscores the importance of our educational programmes in helping new Muslims integrate Islamic practices into their daily lives.
Furthermore, we sponsored over 30 free student places on courses offered by Green Lane Masjid Educational College. This initiative provided students with the opportunity to deepen their knowledge of Islam and develop their skills in various aspects of religious learning.
Throughout the year, we actively shared educational content on our social media platforms, keeping our community engaged and informed. Our efforts were rewarded with nearly a 10% increase in YouTube subscribers, and our videos received 188,000 views in 2024, reflecting the growing interest in our educational offerings.
Empowering Others
Empowering others to take an active role in their communities and support new Muslims is a key aspect of our work. In 2024, we delivered training sessions to mosques and organisations, equipping them with the knowledge and skills needed to provide effective support to new Muslims. These training sessions were well-received and helped to create a network of support across various communities.
One of the highlights of the year was our second annual Umrah trip, which saw 12 reverts embark on this spiritual journey. This trip was a profound experience for all participants, and it underscored the importance of community support in helping new Muslims strengthen their faith.
We also conducted courses on how to correctly convey Islam, ensuring that our volunteers and community members were well-prepared to engage in dawah activities with confidence and accuracy. In addition, we provided training for mentors, both onsite and online, to support new Muslims in their faith journey.
Our commitment to empowering others was also evident in our social media presence, where we shared success stories and highlighted the collaborations that made these achievements possible. By sharing these stories, we aimed to inspire and motivate others to take an active role in supporting new Muslims and conveying the message of Islam.

d. Policies adopted for the induction and training of Trustees
New Trustees undergo a briefing on their legal obligations under Charity law, the content of the memorandum and articles of association, the management and decision making processes, the business plan and recent financial performance of the charitable company. New Trustees also meet kepy employees and other Trustees. Trustees are encouraged to attend appropriate external training events where these will facilitate the undertaking of their role.

The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Company is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the Company, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
Statement of Trustees' responsibilities
The Trustees (who are also the directors of the Company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial . Under company law, the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
-
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 December 2024
1. General information
Re-Enlighten is a charity registered inEngland and Wales with the Charity Commission and is incorporated as a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in the United Kingdom and registered in England and Wales. The registered charity and company numbers, along with the registered office address, are given on page 1. The principal activity of the charity are set out in the Trustees' Report.
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 Companies Act 2006.
Re-Enlighten 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 have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Thus they have concluded that it is reasonable to continue to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.
2.3 Income
All income is recognised once the Company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
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.
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 is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 December 2024
2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.4 Expenditure (continued)
Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the Company to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
2.5 Taxation
The Company is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
2.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets costing £500 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
- Computer equipment Over 3 years
2.7 Investments
Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the Balance sheet date, unless the value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and presented as ‘Gains/(Losses) on investments’ in the Statement of financial activities.

2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.8 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.
2.9 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.
2.10 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 Company 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.
2.11 Financial instruments
The Company 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 with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
2.12 Pensions
The Company operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the Company to the fund in respect of the year.
2.13 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 Company and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.

3. Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgment
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The Company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
Critical areas of judgment:
Income and expenditure allocation
Income and expenditure incurred by the charity is apportioned where it relates to more than one category.
