## **Trustees’ Annual Report for the period** ## **From: 01/01/2021 To 31/12/2021** ## **Charity name: Lytham St Annes Islamic Society** ## **Charity registration number: 1170146** ## **Objectives and Activities** ||SORP reference|| |---|---|---| |Summary of the purposes of
the charity as set out in its
governing document|Para 1.17|1. The advancement of the Islamic religion
on the Fylde Coast by:
o Providing facilities for prayer, religious
services and community/social
activities.
o Providing other such services to the
Islamic community as needed.
o The promotion of religious harmony
for the public benefit by fostering better
relations between Muslims and non-
Muslim communities.
2. The advancement of education.
3. Charitable activities to alleviate poverty
and social deprivation in the local
community.
4. Fundraising to enable the furtherance of
the Charity’s objectives.
5. For such other charitable purposes
according to the law of England and
Wales as may be determined by the
Trustees from time to time. This includes
any other charitable object beneficial to
the community and, in particular, the
Muslim community.| |Summary of the main
activities in relation to those
purposes for the public
benefit, in particular, the
activities, projects or services
identified in the accounts.|Para 1.17 and
1.19|1. Helping unite Muslim
families/individuals living on the Fylde
Coast. We serve as a voice for our
Muslim community through engagement
with the local council and local MPs etc
to ensure that Muslims have a voice that
ensures the community isn't being
disadvantaged.
2. Provision of Islamic education (along the
Church Sunday School model) of Muslim| |||children living on the Fylde Coast. Now
that we have established a community
centre we are able to host events for local
school children where they can come and
learn about Islam as part of their religious
Education curriculum.
3. Providing an outlet for social/cultural/
religious activities and events for our
local Muslim community.
4. Helping integration and development of
religious tolerance by creating greater
understanding of our religion amongst
the non-Muslims living in the
community. Also to promote religious
harmony by fostering better relations
between Muslims and non-Muslim
communities. We do this by attending
other faith group meetings to introduce
ourselves and allow others to ask
questions about our religion etc. We also
plan to invite local council members and
community faith leaders to our events.
5. To help with fundraising projects in the
local community for the benefit of the
whole community - Foodbank, Warm
clothing collection drive etc . We aim to
get our members involved in social and
community projects on the Fylde Coast.
6. We have established our own
Community Centre for social and
religious activities for our members.| |---|---|---| |Statement confirming
whether the trustees have
had regard to the guidance
issued by the Charity
Commission on public
benefit|Para 1.18|Yes, the trustees have had regard of this.| ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: ||SORP reference|| |---|---|---| |Policy on grant making|Para 1.38|Not applicable as this does not form a

volunteers|Para 1.38|The charity does not have any employed staff
and does not reimburse any of its trustees for
their time spent working on the charity
objectives. All help and work are on a| volunteer basis. As such our past achievements would not be possible without the wonderful work of all our volunteers. A large part of our year has been spent fundraising and continue to seek out donations to help consolidate our main longer-term goal which is to have a selfsustaining community and faith centre in Lytham St Annes. This goal was seen to its fruition in the middle part of 2020 when we purchased a local building with the aim of refurbishing it into a modern centre. Fundraising continued throughout the year but with the renewed aim of collecting funds for the refurbishment which started at the tail end of the financial year (2020). Our trustees and other volunteers have been exceptional in assisting our cause. The results of our fundraising endeavours can be clearly seen to have been a success when you look at the finances for the charity over the past couple of years. Also having a “no-time reimbursement” policy where we rely solely on volunteers has helped further shore up our finances. We are delighted to report that we had the grand opening of our community centre in May 2020. It is now fully operational and has become the hub for our community activities in St Annes.

achievements of the charity,

charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.|Para 1.20|1. Negotiated with local council to secure a
burial site solely for Muslims at the local
cemetery.
2. Provision of Islamic education (along the
Church Sunday School model) of Muslim
children living on the Fylde Coast.
3. We have now established a Community
Centre for social and religious activities
for our members.
4. A continued and sustained fundraising
push for donations throughout the year
has helped us shore up our finances and
put us in a healthy position to complete
the renovation for the building mentioned
in point 3 above.
**5.**The building was Purchased in the
summer of 2020 and work to refurbish
the building started at the end of 2020. It
was completed in April 2021 and the
centre opened in May 2021 for public
use.| |---|---|---|---| |**Additional information (optional)**

You may choose to include further statements|where relevant about:| |---|---|---| |Achievements against
objectives set|Para 1.41|The centre refurbishment was completed in
April 2021 and was opened for public use in
May 2021. We were able to finance the
purchase of the building including the
refurbishment without resorting to any bank
loans/mortgages (which deals with payments
of interest – which goes against our religious
beliefs).
Having a community centre and a base for
the charity will enable the us to achieve the
Charity’s longer term aims and objectives in
a much more sustained way. We strongly
believe that the community centre will be the
catalyst that the charity needs for the future.| |Performance of fundraising
activities against objectives
set|Para 1.41|These have continued to exceed our initial
projected forecasts for the year. The
acquisition of the building in 2020 was a
hallmark moment for the charity. Having a
physical base in the community is helping us
attract more funds via the fundraising route.| |---|---|---| |Investment performance

financial position at the end
of the period|Para 1.21|Having started the 2021 financial year with a
cash asset amount of close to fifty-one
thousand pounds we continued with the
push for donations throughout the year in
order to secure the full funding for the
refurbishment of the community centre
building. The year 2021 saw us secure
donations amounting to £32,474. As we are
registered to reclaim GiftAid we were able to
reclaim further funds of approximately
£11,000. Outgoings were limited to utilities,
professional fees and capital expenses
related to the premises renovation costs.
This amounted to a total outgoing of £75,187
leaving us with a healthy cash asset position
of £20,266 in the charity’s current account as
of 31stDecember 2021.| |---|---|---| |Statement explaining the
policy for holding reserves
stating why they are held|Para 1.22|The cash assets at the end of the financial
year were categorised as belonging to the
unrestricted funds of the charity. The
building and the renovation costs have all
been paid for and there are no outstanding
debts owed by the charity. The trustees now
have a good understanding of the day-to-day
expenditures required to run the community
centre. We are mindful of the need for
continual programs of repairs and
refurbishments that will be required when
operating a community centre for public use.
The rising energy costs have also been
factored into future expenses. We have
therefore decided to set the reserve amount
at ten thousand pounds – with the aim of
revisiting and reassessing this at the first
quarter of the next financial year depending
on what day to day liabilities may arise once
the community centre has been operating for
a full 12 months. As at 31/12/21 the charity
has only the ongoing regular expenditures
related to the community centre building
(utilities and maintenance) and no
outstanding long-term debt.| |Amount of reserves held|Para 1.22|£10,000| |Reasons for holding zero

risks facing the charity|Para 1.46|Incoming regular donations more than
surpass any foreseen outgoing expenses
related to the community centre. But if a
main risk was to be identified it would be the
unlikely scenario where the charity was
unable to generate income to pay for the
ongoing running costs of the centre now that
it is fully open for public use. The trustees
have set the reserve amount at the required
level to keep the centre running for at least
12 months even in the eventuality of no
incoming donations for that period of time
(e.g. further pandemic or extended lock
down periods etc).| |Other||Not applicable.| ## **Structure, Governance and Management** |Description of charity’s
