10 YEARS OF ONE UMMAH

One Ummah is an award-winning humanitarian and disaster relief aid organisation born in the UK. Our mission is simple: channel the spirit of Islam by tackling poverty, transforming lives and obeying the command of Allah.

Over the past decade, One Ummah has emerged as a beacon of hope for millions around the world.

Our commitment to easing suffering has propelled us forward and with the will of Allah, allowed us to deliver life-saving aid to over 1.9 million of our brothers and sisters in over 18 calamity-stricken countries.

At the heart of our mission lies a twopronged approach: immediate relief and long-term transformation. We provide urgent relief to those in dire need, offering emergency humanitarian aid through food, water, shelter, clothing and medical supplies. Simultaneously, we invest in sustainable development projects to empower communities to break free from the cycle of poverty.

Ten years of relentless dedication has allowed One Ummah to grow exponentially as a charity. Alhamdulillah, we have been fortunate to recruit passionate volunteers and devoted staff while expanding our offices across the UK and abroad.

Our impact is not solely measured in numbers; it is in the stories of all the lives that have changed. We have witnessed countless journeys of resilience and hope. We have watched families regain their dignity, children realise their dreams, and communities rebuilt.

Our journey would not have been possible without Allah’s mercy and our donors’ incredible generosity. Together, we have created a lifeline that millions desperately need.

As we commemorate a decade of serving the Ummah for the sake of Allah, we turn our focus to the future, driven by determination and purpose.

May Allah accept and reward the deeds of everyone who has contributed to and continues to support our work.

A MESSAGE FROM THE CEO

Bismillah as-salaatu wassalamu ‘ala Rasool-Allah.

With the permission of Allah, we are delighted to present our Annual Report for 2022/23.

It is with the generosity and mercy of The Almighty that One Ummah was able to positively impact millions of our brothers and sisters suffering around the world. This year marks a decade of One Ummah’s work, and it has been full of immense challenges and suffering for many communities worldwide. With the aid of Allah and then thanks to your support, we have remained steadfast in our commitment to easing hardship and fostering hope amongst the Ummah.

One Ummah has actively responded to many crises over the year, providing critical humanitarian aid to 19 countries. Our teams have worked daily to deliver food packs, hot meals, water and medical aid, hygiene kits, emergency winter aid, and much more.

We have always strived to reach the most vulnerable and deprived communities. This includes providing relief to our brothers and sisters in Yemen, Syria, Turkey, Lebanon, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Uganda, Malawi, Tanzania, Kenya, Sierra Leone and more.

This year, we tackled five tragic emergencies that shook the Ummah at its core: the TurkeySyria earthquake, the Pakistan and Bangladesh floods, Afghanistan crisis and the ongoing situation in Gaza. One Ummah was able to immediately mobilise teams to respond and provide direct emergency relief within days of the emergencies taking place.

In the wake of the Turkey-Syria earthquake, our teams navigated damaged roads and infrastructure, risking their lives to deliver essential aid to affected families, Alhamdulillah.

In Bangladesh, we distributed food packs, water, and hygiene kits to families affected by the devastating floods, Alhamdulillah.

Alhamdulillah, in Pakistan, we united to reach remote communities by boat, providing food, shelter, and medical assistance to those displaced by one of the worst floods in Pakistan’s history.

In June, Afghanistan experienced a seismic event, causing significant impact. Our teams immediately intervened, delivering food packs and hygiene assistance to the numerous individuals affected.

One Ummah has provided unwavering support throughout the ongoing Palestinian situation. Our team has been on the ground delivering food, medical supplies, and essential aid to those in need for many years, Alhamdulillah.

Despite our challenges, we remain committed to providing life-saving aid and fostering sustainable development. This year’s top priorities include expanding our sustainability projects, such as rehousing initiatives and microfinance programmes.

Once again, as the Prophet said in an authentic narration, “He who does not thank the people is not thankful to Allah” [Abi Dawud].

Therefore, I would like to say Jazakum Allahu Khairan for the relentless support of our donors, the dedication of our staff and volunteers, and the services of our partners, without whom our achievements would not be possible.

May Allah reward each individual involved with One Ummah, whether directly or indirectly. May He keep us sincere in benefitting the Ummah, hold tight to the Sunnah of our beloved Prophet and reward our collective efforts in this life and the next, Ameen.

Jazakum Allah Khairun.

Riszwan Rehman Chief Executive Officer

CHAIR OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES MESSAGE

In Afghanistan, a country already reeling from mass food poverty, two earthquakes struck at a magnitude of 7.4 Mw and 6.1 Mw, resulting in 1,350 deaths.

Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh.

Our beloved Prophet Muhammad said,

“Whoever does not thank people has not thanked Allah.”

We then witnessed the devastating earthquakes that struck Turkey and northern and western Syria, which caused widespread damage in an area of about 350,000 km2 and which resulted in 59,259 confirmed deaths.

In keeping with this prophetic tradition, I would on behalf of the board of trustees like to show my gratitude to everybody who contributed to the life-saving work of One Ummah.

By the grace and power of Allah, One Ummah teams responded swiftly to these disasters, and continue to provide support as we move from an emergency phase to a rebuilding one. I ask everybody to continue your du’aas and donations, as much work remains to be done.

I would like to thank our generous donors, who during an unprecedented cost-of-living crisis, have continued to dig ever deeper and give in order to alleviate the suffering of our brothers and sisters. I would like to thank our staff and volunteers, who continually go over and beyond to deliver life-saving aid to some of the most vulnerable and hard-to-reach communities across crisis-hit countries. Without you all, the lives of millions of our brothers and sisters would still be at significant risk. May Allah grant each of you the highest level of Jannah, Ameen.

Sadly, the continual challenges the Muslim world faces from natural disasters, climate change, war, conflict and persecution, means that One Ummah will have to be ever-ready in its preparedness to emergencies in order to provide a swift humanitarian aid response. We are in this for the long haul, and whilst we deal with emergencies, we hope to continue our long term programmes that tackle poverty across 19 crisis-hit countries.

At One Ummah, we are guided by the words of the Prophet Muhammad when he said,

“The parable of the believers in their affection, mercy, and compassion for each other is that of a body. When any limb aches, the whole body reacts with sleeplessness and fever.”

I also want to stress that as a board, we take our commitment to a 100% donation policy very seriously. We will always value the trust of our supporters and guarantee that every penny generously donated by you will be allocated to the intended cause only.

This pain was deeply felt this past year, as the Ummah suffered a series of devastating blows brought about by natural disasters.

Finally, I would like to say Jazakum Allahu Khairan once again. Thank you for giving us the platform to transform millions of lives each year. May Allah accept all our efforts, Ameen.

In Pakistan, severe flooding led to 2.2 million houses damaged or destroyed, leading to 8 million people becoming internally displaced (IDPs), with 1,739 fatalities.

In Bangladesh, an estimated 7.2 million people were impacted by flooding, with hundreds of deaths. In Somalia, according to one UN report, around 43,000 people may have died due to drought.

OBJECTS, STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

OUR LEGAL OBJECTS

One Ummah is an international humanitarian aid and development organisation.

In its previous incarnation, One Ummah Charity was established in 2013 and registered on 20th December 2013. A constitution governed it as an unincorporated association.

The charity was incorporated into a new Charitable Incorporated Organisation (‘the new CIO’). The assets and liabilities belonging to the charity were transferred to the new CIO (effective from 2nd August 2016), and the charity formerly known as “One Ummah Charity” was renamed “One Ummah”. The charity ceased to operate on 31st December 2016 and was removed from the Register of Charities (‘the Register’). Since its registration, the new CIO has been known as “One Ummah” (1168565).

The Constitution defines One Ummah’s

objects as being:

a) To assist in the prevention or relief of poverty worldwide by providing grants, items and services to individuals in need, charities or other organisations working to prevent poverty.

b) The advancement of the Islamic religion for the benefit of the public in areas of poverty and hardship.

c) To advance education by providing financial or other assistance for the benefit of the public in areas of poverty and hardship.

d) To advance health by providing financial or other assistance, including medicines, hospitals, and othe means, in each case, for the public benefit anywhere in the world.

RISK MANAGEMENT

As part of the initial activity evaluation and implementation, all major undertakings undergo a risk assessment phase, where potential risks are identified, ranked, evaluated and mitigated.

Significant risks, for this purpose, are those that may have a considerable effect on:

The Trustees assess these risks regularly to ensure sufficient risk management procedures and systems are in place. Insurance coverage is obtained when deemed necessary.

The following framework is central to ensuring a

valid risk assessment procedure:

development of action plans

REPORTING PUBLIC BENEFIT

The Trustees confirm that they have read the Commission’s Guidance on Public Benefit (including PB1, PB2, PB3). One Ummah complies with the public benefit requirement under the Charities Act 2011. Our work only involves activities that advance our charitable goals and benefit the public. This can be seen in the many humanitarian activities highlighted in this report, e.g. emergency aid or education support, which helps people by saving lives, reducing poverty and providing means for educational advancement.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

During the year, the charity raised income of £21.7m (2022: £16.4m) and incurred expenditure £16.7m (2022: £13.9m). The carry forward reserves stand at £10.83m (2022: £5.83m), of which £10.48m (2022: £4.83m) relates to Restricted funds and £355k (2022: £1.0m) relates to Unrestricted general reserves. The reason for the high restricted funds at year-end was due to the high level of donations received (£4.7m) for the Turkiye/Syria earthquake disaster during February/March, which is two months before the charity’s year end. Funds were spent in the following financial year. The current level of general reserves stands at £355k (2022: £1.0m). The reason for the significant decrease from last year is due to the fact that the charity has invested substantially in increasing its resource due to considerable growth in donations year on year.

RESERVE POLICY

One Ummah has a policy that sets the level of general reserves to meet our operating expenses in the event of a sudden drop in income or the incurring of unexpected expenditures. We constantly review this policy, assessing risks and reflecting on changes in factors such as income and our financial obligations and commitments. This assessment was carried out in 2021, and the current target level of reserves of six months of the core operational budget was deemed sufficient. These funds are held in contemporary and medium-term cash forms.

IN PREPARING THESE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS,

THE TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES ARE:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping sufficient accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of One Ummah and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of One Ummah and hence, for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The Trustees are responsible for maintaining the integrity of the corporate and financial information on the One Ummah website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

The Trustees declare that they have read, understand and approved the report.

TRUSTEES AND ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE

The Board of Trustees (herein also called “Trustees” or “The Trustees”) directs and oversees One Ummah per its statutory obligations and policies. Focusing on strategic planning and governance, the Board also sets priorities and objectives to alleviate poverty and its underlying causes.

The Board of Trustees appraises the performance of the Senior Management Team (SMT) against both strategic and operational objectives through reports, meetings and other interventions as required. The Trustees also approve new policies and procedures.

When new trustees are appointed, they are given a formal induction to the work of One Ummah and provided with the information they need to fulfil their roles, which includes information about the part of trustees and Charity Law. New trustees are nominated by members of the Board of Trustees, interviewed by a panel of three trustees and appointed where they have the necessary skills to contribute to One Ummah management and development.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) is responsible for One Ummah’s strategic direction, ensuring compliance and acting on behalf of the Trustees. The Senior Management Team (SMT) headed by the CEO is responsible for implementing the strategic and operational plan and the day-to-day management of One Ummah.

100% DONATION POLICY

One Ummah operates a 100% donation policy. We highly value the trust of our supporters and assure you that every penny you generously donate is dedicated solely to the cause or project you have chosen to support. We will never allocate project funds towards administrative expenses, marketing efforts, or generating additional funds.

It is important to note that any unavoidable online transaction charges by third-party gateways are deducted before the donation reaches us.

An example of our 100% donation policy is if you give £100 towards school supplies, the entire £100 donation will go towards the school supplies and ensure they are received by the beneficiaries. Our donors can trust that One Ummah exercises complete diligence in how we allocate funds under the donors’ specific preferences and intentions.

One Ummah sources funding for administrative expenses from the following channels:

Admin Fund: A specific fund where donations can be made directly towards the administration costs.

Gift Aid: Any gift aid claimed on donations may be used for administration costs.

TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES TO

THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Trustees are responsible for preparing an Annual Report and financial statements following applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give an accurate and fair view of the state of affairs of One Ummah and the incoming resources and their application for that period.

Signed on behalf of The Trustees,

Sabahat Hussain, Trustee

Textile Recycling: One Ummah maintains clothing banks where textiles are collected and recycled to raise funds.

Sponsors: We acquire sponsorship deals to increase the charity’s exposure and generate funds.

ONE UMMAH INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of One Ummah for the year ended 31 March 2023 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102. The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion, the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, including the trustees’ report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially, inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such materialthis gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors’ report included within the trustees’ report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on Page 37, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

We identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements from our sector experience through discussion with the Officers and other management (as required by auditing standards).

We had regard to laws and regulations in areas that directly affect the financial statements including financial reporting and taxation legislation. We considered that extent of compliance with those laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statement items.

With the exception of any known or possible non-compliance, and as required by auditing standards, our work in respect of these was limited to enquiry of the Officers. We communicated identified laws and regulations throughout our team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit.

We addressed the risk of fraud through management override of controls, by testing the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments; assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias; and evaluating the business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Lyons & Co Ltd is eligible for appointment as auditor of the charity by virtue of its eligibility for appointment as auditor of a company under section 1212 of the Companies Act 2006.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company’s members, as a body, in accordance with the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

THANK YOU FOR 10 YEARS OF ONE UMMAH

As we mark the 10th anniversary of One Ummah, we say JazakumAllahu Khairan and extend our deepest appreciation to everyone who has been a part of this remarkable journey.

Alhamdulillah, All praise is to Allah as without His permission, there is no success.

To our loyal donors who have generously supported our mission and entrusted their Amanah to us, even when they may have faced times of hardship - you have been the lifeline that has sustained our work. Your faith in us motivates us daily.

To our beloved volunteers who have selflessly given up their time to help with all kinds of projects on the ground - your unity and dedication are what make this special. May Allah accept your sacrifices.

To our community partners and businesses who have collaborated with us - you have been paramount in amplifying our impact.

And to our staff who work tirelessly behind the scenes, your commitment drives us forward as a charity.

There will be many challenges as we look ahead to the next 10 years. Still, with your continued support and faith in our mission, we remain boldly committed to serving the most vulnerable communities and seeking the pleasure of Allah.

We will stand bravely against injustice, leading with compassion and holding tight to the Sunnah of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). We will strive to nurture hope in places of despair. We will fight to empower the displaced and rebuild. Moreover, we will continue to build brighter futures where kindness and humanity prevail.

Without your support, we would not have been able to make the difference that we have.

This year, we changed 1,964,764 lives for the better. May Allah reward you all immensely and keep us all sincere.
