Activities and Achievements
During the year, the charity continued to engage the community with various activities:
· Meditation and Prayer Meetings
Regular sessions were held to foster spiritual growth and community support.
· Festivals
Celebrations attracted both members and the local community, promoting inclusivity and cultural understanding.
· Donations
Fitrana and specific donation appeals are treated as restricted income and are applied for the purposes for which they were given. All restricted funds received during the year were fully applied before the year end and therefore no restricted fund balance remained at 31 December 2025
· Ramadan
Masjid undertook to feed approximately 350 people on daily basis, this was fully funded by a local caterer and the congregation. Generally, our congregation has almost doubled and the Friday collection almost tripled.
Financial Review
For the year ended 31 December 2025, the charity generated net income of £46,094.53 before recognising a loss on disposal of fixed assets of £20,000. The resulting net movement in funds for the year was £26,094.53. This positive result was primarily due to increased donations and other income received during the year compared with the previous year.
At 31 December 2025, unrestricted funds amounted to £45,589.98 and total funds amounted to £3,489,298.75, including a revaluation reserve of £3,443,708.77. Cash and bank balances increased during the year, reflecting improved cash generation and a reduction in outstanding creditors.
The charity’s principal asset is the mosque property together with its associated investment properties. These assets are included in the financial statements at valuation. A revaluation of the charity’s property assets was carried out in May 2025 by independent professionally qualified surveyors, resulting in an increase in the revaluation reserve.
Page 2 of 11
Reserves Policy
The trustees have considered the level of reserves appropriate for the charity in line with the Charity Commission’s guidance (CC19). The charity’s policy is to maintain unrestricted free reserves equivalent to approximately three months’ core operating expenditure in order to provide a buffer against unexpected income shortfalls or increases in operating costs.
At 31 December 2025, the charity held unrestricted free reserves of £45,589.98. The trustees consider this level of free reserves to be below their target level and will seek to strengthen reserves over time through prudent financial management and continued fundraising activities.
The charity’s total funds at 31 December 2025 amounted to £ 3,489,298.75, including a revaluation reserve of £3,443,708.77. The charity also holds significant property assets which are included in the financial statements at valuation. These assets are not liquid and are therefore not available to meet the charity’s day-to-day operating needs.
Risk Management
The trustees have considered the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that appropriate systems are in place to mitigate these risks. Key risks identified include:
Financial risks – potential reductions in donation income and increases in running costs. Mitigated through regular financial monitoring, budgeting, and maintaining appropriate reserves.
Property and operational risks – risks associated with maintaining the mosque and other charity properties. Mitigated through regular inspections, insurance cover, and planned maintenance.
Governance and compliance risks – risk of failing to comply with charity law or reporting requirements. Mitigated by maintaining trustee training, engaging an independent examiner, and following Charity Commission guidance.
Safeguarding and community risks – ensuring the safety and wellbeing of all community members, including children and vulnerable adults. Mitigated through safeguarding policies, DBS checks where appropriate, and regular review of procedures.
The trustees will continue to review risks on an ongoing basis and take action where necessary to protect the charity’s assets and beneficiaries.
Public Benefit Statement
The trustees confirm that they have complied with their duty under section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. In planning and carrying out the charity’s activities, the trustees have ensured that they further the charity’s objects for the advancement of the Islamic faith and the provision of community facilities, in ways that are accessible and of benefit to the wider public regardless of background.
The charity’s activities during the year — including daily prayers, educational classes, community events, and outreach programmes — have provided spiritual, educational and social benefits to the local community, thereby delivering clear public benefit in line with the charity’s aims.
Future Plans
Going forward, the charity aims to:
·Increase community outreach and engagement.
·Explore new fundraising opportunities to support activities.
·Enhance educational programs through the distribution of literature and resources.
·Provide a safe space for ladies and younger members of the community so that specific beneficial programmes and courses can be delivered.
