Principal activities

A Summary of the main achievements of the Charity during the year
Time to Help is a charity that operates in many countries worldwide, with the motto: "Here to Help". We met the needs of thousands of people in 2020, despite all the negative effects and restrictions that came with the pandemic, and we managed to make people happy.
Until quarantine restrictions started, we continued our weekly breakfast events for the homeless, which has been running for 4 years. These are people who -for a variety of reasons- don't have a place to stay, and who could not get any help. By serving 3154 breakfasts, we ensured that these people could meet their most basic needs, and we were guests at their tables with 2288 boxes of food items.
When it was no longer possible to provide food to the homeless indoors, during quarantine periods, we prepared packed lunches and distributed them in the city centre every week. Approximately 1650 homeless enjoyed the amazing food in those packages. In this new year we will continue serving the homeless with the help of our dedicated volunteers from different backgrounds.
We organized an online ESOL course, under the name "Eleven Eleven", for more than 500 refugees who had difficulties because of their lack of language skills, and who could not attend language courses as a result of the pandemic. Our language course now in its 10th term, and still helping individuals thriving to be part of work environment.
We have said "We are here to help", even under the direst conditions, and from the moment that the quarantine started during the pandemic, we provided food parcels, essential items, medicines and befriending services to hundreds of families in the UK. Despite the difficulties caused by the pandemic, we delivered local and national aid to those in desperate need during the holy month of Ramadan. With the help of Sohbet Society, we distributed food packages to 532 refugee families in the UK. We also sent food packages to Yemen, Uganda and Tanzania, enabling us to reach 300 families in each country.
We began by saying "everyone should enjoy Eid" during the festival of Eid al Adha and we have distributed 5985 packages of meat in 6 different countries, and have shared the happiness of more than thirty thousand people who can only eat meat once a year - during Eid al Adha.
Today, when digital appliances are part of every aspect of our lives, we have organized basic level computer courses for people who have difficulties in using computers and are not able to attend courses. In this way, we have ensured that people are up to date in the digital age and achieve their full potential.
We have been aware that the most effective way to combat the virus is to pay attention to hygiene rules and hygiene starts with clean water. Consequently, we organized campaigns using the emergency code, and we have provided clean and safe water for 7425 people by building 14 water wells in four different countries. Remember, clean water saves thousands of lives, especially in developing countries where a child dies in every two minutes due to the dirty water.

We provided rent and food aid for 30 refugee families who were stranded in Greece. We delivered food packages to 2000 people who were staying at the Malakasa refugee camp.
In December, we organized a campaign with our European partners and provided food and blankets to 1300 refugee families in Greece, helping them to pass the winter in relative comfort.
While undertaking our activities, we were following the world's current problems and we organized an "OET for refugees" course for overseas qualified doctors who had recently settled in the United Kingdom. In this way, we made sure that immigrant doctors in our country can obtain the qualifications needed to practice here. Once they get their recognitions, they will help our fight against Covid.
Through an awareness campaign, which was jointly conducted with the Dialogue Society, we asked Time to Help volunteers to take part in a cycling event for the benefit of the NHS, and we showed our support for these NHS heroes along with the dozens of people from different cities across the country who participated in the cycling event.
Today, with the colder weather, we have established a "Cloth Bank" with the Amity Educational Foundation, in order to provide garments for people in need. Every needy person will be able to meet their clothing needs for free in our cloth bank.
Time for Help, which makes people smile in the United Kingdom and in many other countries worldwide, carries out these activities -which are very important for humanity- thanks to its valuable donors and generous grant makers, to whom we are indebted, and we wish to thank these donors and grant makers who provide funds to our charity at every opportunity. We could only realise these activities thanks to nameless heroes support us.
We know that there is another difficult year before us. However, despite all these difficulties, we are determined to continue our journey, which we started with the motto "Here to Help", so as to organize new campaigns, to increase the quality of our services, to expand the scope of our aid work and to make as many needy people as possible smile, wherever they find themselves in the world.

TIME TO HELP (UK) Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 August 2020
1 Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (as applied to small entities by section 1A of the standard).
Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services. Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have transferred to the buyer. Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs.
Intangible fixed assets
Intangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulative amortisation and any accumulative impairment losses.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulative depreciation and any accumulative impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life, as follows:
| Freehold buildings | over 50 years |
|---|---|
| Leasehold land and buildings | over the lease term |
| Plant and machinery | over 5 years |
| Fixtures, fittings, tools and equipment | over 5 years |
Investments
Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Listed investments are measured at fair value. Unlisted investments are measured at fair value unless the value cannot be measured reliably, in which case they are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Changes in fair value are included in the profit and loss account.
Stocks
Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is determined using the first in first out method. The carrying amount of stock sold is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised.
Debtors
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price), less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Loans and other financial assets are initially recognised at transaction price including any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.
7
TIME TO HELP (UK) Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 August 2020
Creditors
Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method.
Taxation
A current tax liability is recognised for the tax payable on the taxable profit of the current and past periods. A current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to recover tax paid in a previous period. Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference, except for revalued land and investment property where the tax rate that applies to the sale of the asset is used. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.
Provisions
Provisions (ie liabilities of uncertain timing or amount) are recognised when there is an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that economic benefit will be transferred to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Foreign currency translation
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recognised at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. At the end of each reporting period foreign currency monetary items are translated at the closing rate of exchange. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost are translated at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. All differences are charged to profit or loss.
Leased assets
A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. All other leases are classified as operating leases. The rights of use and obligations under finance leases are initially recognised as assets and liabilities at amounts equal to the fair value of the leased assets or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. Minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction in the outstanding liability using the effective interest rate method. The finance charge is allocated to each period during the lease so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Leased assets are depreciated in accordance with the company's policy for tangible fixed assets. If there is no reasonable certainty that ownership will be obtained at the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the lower of the lease term and its useful life. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term.
Pensions
Contributions to defined contribution plans are expensed in the period to which they relate.
