## **Description of the charity’s trusts**
|Type of governing document
(eg. trust deed, constitution)
How the charity is constituted
(eg. trust, association, company)|
Vietnamese Buddhist Association-UK is constituted as a charitable
trust registered with the Charity Commission on 15 June 2015 under
charity number 1162186.|
|---|---|
||
The charity trustees are responsible for the general control and
management of the charity. The trustees give their time freely and
receive no remuneration or other financial benefits.
The trustees meet together as a body monthly and are responsible
for all decisions taken in relation to running the Vietnamese
Buddhist Association-UK (VBA) and the activities provided by the
charity.
To assist in the smooth running of the charity the trustees have set
up a number of sub-committees that help them oversee certain
aspects of the charity’s work. Sub-committees are currently set up
for oversee the finance and for the day-to-day management of the
charity and report back with their recommendations at the full|
**- 2 -**
meetings of the trustees. The sub-committees meet eight (8) times a year, and are also chaired by the Chairperson.
## Trustee selection methods
- (eg. appointed by, elected by) The existing trustees are responsible for the recruitment of new trustees on the board. The trustees believe this approach ensures that new trustees are respected members of the faith and local communities and ensure that good relations are fostered between the Vietnamese Buddhist Association-UK (VBA) and the people of the local community that we serve. In selecting new trustees, we seek to identify people who regularly attend events and functions organised by the charity and are willing to volunteer to help in our broader community work. Potential trustees are invited to attend trustees’ meetings as observers and are given more detail of the charity’s aims and activities and, if all agree, they are then proposed as new trustees at the subsequent trustees’ meeting. This process allows due consideration of the person's eligibility, personal competence, specialist knowledge and skills.
## **Additional governance issues (Optional information)**
You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant, about:
- policies and procedures adopted for the induction and training of trustees;
- the charity’s organisational structure and any wider network with which the charity works;
- relationship with any related parties;
- trustees’ consideration of major risks and the system and procedures to manage them.
## **Induction and training of trustees**
Following appointment, new trustees are introduced to their new role and given copies of the trust deed and a guide to the policies and procedures adopted by the charity. A number of publications from the Charity Commission are also provided including the guidance on charities and public benefit and on the advancement of religion for the public benefit. This ensures that new trustees are aware of the scope of their responsibilities under the Charities Act.
Initially, new trustees work with an existing trustee assisting on particular activities and projects run by the charity. After satisfactory feedback from existing trustees, they are then given the task of leading a particular activity or project, reporting progress at trustees’ meetings.
## **Risk management**
The trustees have examined the risks that the charity could be exposed to and have minimised these risks which could have an impact on the charity.
Insurance cover is in place, and the finances of the Vietnamese Buddhist Association-UK (VBA) are kept under review, with a reserve limit set to face unforeseen circumstances.
**- 3 -**
Appropriate Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks, supported by regularly reviewed policies, will be implemented when the charity has activities which involve those who work with children or other vulnerable groups within the Vietnamese Buddhist Association-UK (VBA).
## **Section C Objectives and activities**
The objectives of the charity are set out in the charity’s trust deed and are summarised below:
**Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document**
- To advance the Vietnamese Buddhist faith in United Kingdom for the benefit of the public, in particular through the holding of prayers, meditation practice, meetings, Buddhist lectures, the public celebration of religious festivals and the distribution of literature on the Buddhist faith to enlighten others.
**- 4 -**
Our objectives are set out to reflect the Vietnamese Buddhist Association-UK faith and have the following aims:
- In the short-term: Organize four important Buddhist ceremonies in a year (February, May, August, November) and open short course for Vietnamese-British or those who want to learn about Buddhism each month.
**Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)**
- In the long-term: The charity’s goal is to build a Vietnamese Buddhist Pagoda in London and through our community facilities and activities help make our area a peaceful, vibrant and harmonious community.
- We want to make our Vietnamese Buddhist Pagoda an accessible and welcoming venue where all Buddhists, or those who wish to know more about our faith, can gather together to learn about the Buddha’s teachings and worship. Our pagoda will be open at all times with daily prayers, with the Sunday prayers being the focus of our activities. In addition to an open day, we will also hold an open week each year when we invite congregations from all other local religions to visit us.
- Volunteers are an important resource in both our faith and community work. Volunteers are involved in most of our faith and community activities. We will appoint about ten volunteers for running our organisation in the near future.
- All our trustees give up their time freely. We encourage all members of our Vietnamese Buddhist Pagoda to be involved in voluntary activities and to share their skills with others. All those volunteers working with projects involving children or other vulnerable groups will be DBS checked.
## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)**
You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about:
- policy on grantmaking;
- policy programme related investment;
- To help achieve the charity’s goal, the charity has asked its members to donate £20 a month towards the day-to-day running costs, which has been received with overwhelming support.
- contribution made by volunteers.

## **INCOMING RESOURCES**
**Recognition of incoming** These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when: **resources** • the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
- the trustees are virtually certain they will receive the resources; and
• the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. **Incoming resources with** Where incoming resources have related expenditure (as with fundraising or contract income) **related expenditure** the incoming resources and related expenditure are reported gross in the SoFA. **Grants and donations** Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources.
**Tax reclaims on donations** Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the SoFA at the same time as the gift to **and gifts** which they relate. **Contractual income and** This is only included in the SoFA once the related goods or services have been delivered. **performance related grants**
Gifts in kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the **Gifts in kind** amount actually realised.
Gifts in kind for sale or distribution are included in the accounts as gifts only when sold or distributed by the charity. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable. **Donated services and** These are only included in incoming resources (with an equivalent amount in resources **facilities** expended) where the benefit to the charity is reasonably quantifiable, measurable and material _._ The value placed on these resources is the estimated value to the charity of the service or facility received.

**Grants payable without** These are only recognised in the accounts when a commitment has been made and there are **performance conditions** no conditions to be met relating to the grant which remain in the control of the charity. **Support Costs** Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
## **ASSETS**
**Tangible fixed assets for use** These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £100. **by charity** They are valued at cost or a reasonable value on receipt. **Investments** Investments quoted on a recognised stock exchange are valued at market value at the year end.

## **Section A Independent Examiner’s Report**
**Report to the trustees/** Vietnamese Buddhist Association – UK **members of**
**On accounts for the year** 31 May 2021 **Charity no** 1162186 **ended (if any) Set out on pages** 1 to 15
**Respective** The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. **responsibilities of** The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year **trustees and examiner** under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:
- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
- **Basis of independent** My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given **examiner’s statement** by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
- **Independent** In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention
- **examiner's statement** (other than that disclosed below *)
1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:
- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and
- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act
- have not been met; or
2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
