## Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2020 

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

Waltham Forest Noor Ul Islam (Noor UI Islam) was originally formed in 1990 with the aims of promoting education amongst Muslim children and the advancement of the religion of Islam. 

Noor UI Islam was previously registered as a charity under registration number 1017780. Following the formation of the Waltham Forest Noor Ul Islam Company, the new company was registered as a charity (registration 1171380). The organisation is also registered in England and Wales under Company number 07803945. 

Throughout Noor UI Islam's 30-year history, we have run different services and activities to meet our objectives. We are governed by our Articles of Association. Directors (Trustees) give due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit. 

By promoting good quality education and supporting the advancement of Islam we have been able to demonstrate how Muslims do improve the lives of those in the UK. Interfaith events and co-operation with the local authority, police and other public bodies have resulted in improvements in the quality of lives for those living close by and those further afield. The organisation decides on which services to provide based on its knowledge and experience of working in the community, by evaluating past services and by consulting with users and other stakeholders. 

## OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES 

Objectives and aims 

The promotion of good quality education has been a continuing aim and objective of the Organisation since its establishment. 

The number of services run by Noor UI Islam, financed through limited donations, has grown each year. By providing good education, it is felt that this helps the community to be more employable and therefore possibly reduces local poverty. 

The Organisation also aims to promote a united community. It is continual in its condemnation of hate crimes and has in place specific checks to ensure external speakers at Noor Ul Islam are vetted. 

The following are some of the activities/services provided by Noor UI Islam: " Full Time Aalimah class - Graduating female Scholars in Islamic Theology 

- " Advisory and information service 

- " Health promotion and advice 

- " Football sessions (weekly) with Leyton Orient 

- " Full time Islamic Primary School 

- " Funeral Services 

- " Interfaith meetings 

- " Lectures and seminars 

" Mosque Open Days 

- " Pre-school 

- " Quran classes for women 

- " Regular prayers in congregation

## OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES 

Significant Activities NOOR UL ISLAM PROJECTS Below is a list of some of the project and departments run at Noor UI Islam. The notes below are related to the year to December 2020. 

## Aalimah Department 

Noor UI Islam Aalimah department continues to teach Muslim Women Islamic Theology. This five-year course is only one of a few in the area to teach at this level. Classes were suspended for a while, before restarting using online teacher tools. Funeral services Noor Ul Islam continued to offer its funeral service in line with the teachings of Islam. However as there is a reliance on washing and shrouding facilities being available at other mosques often families are advised to work with other funeral directors. Madrassas: The Inspire Madrassas has after school classes where Quran and Islamic studies are taught. There are two Madrassa held at Noor UI Islam. The weekday Madrassa is from Monday to Fridays, 4:40pm to 6:40pm. The Saturday Madrassa is from 10am to 12:30pm. The Inspire Madrassa is a part of Noor UI Islam. Face to face teaching was suspended. Then in April 2020 online teaching was introduced for all pupils. 

Mosque This is where the five daily regular prayers take place as well as the main Friday congregational prayer. During construction work, prayers are being held in temporary facilities. Sermons and talks given are in English to ensure universal understanding. During lockdown many restrictive conditions were put in place, including the complete suspension of prayer service for the public. However, prayers and talks were given virtually to an increasing audience. 

Pre-School The Noor UI Islam Pre-School has continued to provide a bright and healthy environment for children aged three to five years old. For a while classes were suspended but once government restrictions were lifted, our preschool was able to restart. 

Primary School Noor UI Islam Primary School has continued its good work of promoting quality education to boys and girls aged four to 11. A Hifdh service is also provided where pupils can memorise the Quran during supplementary classes. Again, classes moved to an online platform during the Covid-19 lockdown. 

Project Rebuild Since 2014, we have been working on building a new complex that will house more services and provide state of the arts facilities. This new building will help better meet the objectives of the organisation and to improve the quality of service provided to our users. The new building will cost in the region of £12 million. 

By the end of 2020 around £8 million has been donated and lent to "Project Rebuild". The project was around 75% complete. It was hoped that the building would be completed by 2020, however the Covid-19 lockdown resulted in a huge reduction in income and cessation of building works.

Report of the Trustees 

for the Year Ended 31 December 2020 

## OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES 

A completion date of around 2020/21 was previously anticipated however with building work on hold and a big reduction in income due to Covid-19, it is expected that this date will be put back. 

The project manager, Mr Imran Sidyot (I S$ Ameen) holds regular meetings with the Trustees and the construction contractors. 

Appeals for funds are made to the public, who are also kept informed of work progress via the organisation's website and social media pages. 

Public benefit Noor UI Islam provides welfare, social and educational services to the local community. It works with other forward thinking organisations to provide better services for the community to benefit from. The trustees have had regard for the Charity Commission on public benefit. 

## Strategy 

## Short term strategy 

Noor Ul Islam's Directors aim to continue to provide the local community with an excellent level of service despite being in temporary accommodation. We seek to meet all the governance requirements and help an increasing number of people through financial and emotional support. 

## Long term Strategy 

Once the new building is complete, we aim to increase the level of service available as well as enhancing even further the quality of service. The new building will enable us to reach out to more users, allowing greater harmony between people of the same, different and no faiths. Additional plans include providing a Secondary School, reducing long term debt and developing new health initiatives. 

Noor Ul Islam will then able to become a hub where people can visit for emotional and welfare support and provide a higher level of quality education to people throughout different life stages. 

Volunteers After going through a checking process, successful volunteers are inducted to the Organisation. The Organisation has been constantly transformed through the work of its volunteers. Areas of help by volunteers include stewards at events such as the Summer Fete, helping with fundraising and supporting staff and Trustees during the regular prayer.

## Financial review 

## FUNDRAISING 

Donors to Noor Ul Islam can be assured that we comply with the regulatory standards for fundraising. As well as being a registered charity we are also registered with the Fundraising Regulator and are committed to the Fundraising Promise and the Code of Fundraising Practice. To run Noor UI Islam we rely heavily on donations. Our Primary School and Madrassa are financed through school fees and aim to break even. The Pre-school receives funding from the local authority and therefore does not require the use of monies raised through fundraising. Project Rebuild (our project to build new premises) and its administration is financed through fundraising. Our fundraising plan encourages regular giving, larger donations and supporting at events. By being registered with the Fundraising Regulator we comply with all the relevant standards set out in their Code of Fundraising Practice. 

We do not use third-party groups for fundraising as this is all done in-house. We have safeguards in place when volunteers help us to protect our supporters and the reputation of our charity. Our complaints policy explains how an individual can complain. We received no complaints related to fundraising in 2020. We responded to all complaints within 21 days in-line with our complaints policy. Any serious complaints are escalated to our trustees so they can consider any lessons to be learnt. 

We report to the Fundraising Regulator on the totality of our complaints when required. 

Commercial participators/professional fundraisers 

At Noor UI Islam we have not used professional fundraisers. Where staff are involved in fundraising through their paid roles, this is made clear to supporters. 

Protecting the Public We also have procedure and policies to protect vulnerable people. Our fundraisers (staff and volunteers) are familiarized with the code of conduct to ensure that it is applied properly. The Organisation approaches regular worshippers, users and parents of pupils to support the fundraising efforts. An email list has also been compiled, however each email sent to those on this list (using Mail Chimp) will give the option to unsubscribe. In 2018 with the advent of GDPR, individuals must explicitly agree to join our mailing list. 

## Announcements are also made to the congregation as to what to expect from local fundraisers. 

Individual volunteer fundraisers are vetted including references obtained. If accepted as a volunteer, a photographic ID card is given permitting them to fundraiser for a fixed period and also a receipt book in order to provide both the donor and organisation proof of donations. Volunteer are is briefed as to what the organisation's policies and procedures are and how no one should feel pressured into giving money. 

Volunteers and staff are told that it is not acceptable to have an unreasonable intrusion on a person's privacy or to use unreasonably persistent methods to receive a donation. Any undue pressure on a person to give a donation (of money or other property is not permitted.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2020 

## STRATEGIC REPORT 

Financial review Covid-19 Covid 19 has had a huge impact on Noor UI Islam. Many of our services were suspended for at least some time in 2020, including congregational prayers in the mosques. Staff from various departments were furloughed under the government Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme whilst others had to work from home. 

This led to a drastic effect on our income and we had to reassess how we communicate with our users and supporters. Whilst Covid-19 is a pandemic, Noor Ul Islam still reported this as a serious incident to the Charity Commission in March 2020 as it was clear this would severely impact on our services and fundraising. 

Noor UI Islam offered help and support to those affected by Covid-19. This was through various methods including distributing food vouchers, arranging hot foods to be served to NHS staff at Whipps Cross Hospital and calling up users to provide someone for them to talk to, during lockdown. 

## Future plans 

Noor UI Islam's main medium term aim now is to have purpose-built premises to meet the needs ofthe whole community. We hoped that our new building would be ready by 2021. However, with rising costs and the Covid-19 pandemic, it is accepted that this is very unlikely. 

The situation is continually being reassessed and with uncertainty of what will happen in the near future, it is possible that future plans will be revised.

## STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT 

## Recruitment and appointment of new trustees 

The Trustees, who hold overall responsibility under the rules for controlling the management and administration of the charity, are listed on page 2 of this report. The Board of Trustees include four Office Bearers: Chairman, Assistant Chairman, Secretary and Treasurer 

Trustees are nominated and appointed by the Board of Trustees. To be eligible, the Board of Trustees will look for those who regularly attend events and functions organised by the Organisation and show an interest in / volunteer during activities. Trustees are valuable assets for the charity because they bring a wealth of experience and knowledge of community and charity work. They act as a watchdog over the Charity's activities and provide constructive advice. 

Any individual nominated to become a Trustee is invited to attend the Board of Trustees meetings as an observer. They are introduced to existing Trustees and are given an opportunity to ask about the charity's activities and funding, as well as its aims and objectives. 

Currently the Board of Trustees have appointed six individuals as potential Trustees. These individuals meet regularly and shadow the Board of Trustees, providing support, when needed, at the same time. 

Due consideration is given to the person's eligibility to serve by the Board who refers to the original specification of the skill requirements, personal competence and specialist knowledge of the potential new Trustee. Prior to confirmation of the position of Trustees or Governors, a DBS check is carried out during the suitability process. 

Nominated Trustees are made aware oftheir duties and responsibilities as Trustees of a charity under the Charities Act. They then assist on projects and activities run by Noor UI Jslam and are given a task to deal with on their own and regularly monitored through meetings. 

School governors are delegated a certain amount of authority to run the Primary School. The Primary School Board of Governors meets every three months to ensure rules and policies are in place and implemented in accordance to the Department for Education. They then report back to the Board of Trustees through the Chairman and other Trustees. 

Governors are appointed in a similar way to Trustees, with a period of[induction][given][to][allow][the][Board][of][ Governors][to] ascertain whether the individual is suitable. Parent Governors are also appointed in a similar manner. 

## Structure, Governance & Management 

## The Organisation 

Waltham Forest Noor Ul Islam was established in 1990 as a place of worship and later it developed into a community centre which caters for the needs of the Muslims and others in the vicinity. It became a registered charity in 1993. 

Its main departments currently comprise of a Mosque, Pre-School, Primary School, Women's Group, Madrassa and an Aalimah department (graduating female scholars in Islamic Theology). The Organisation is governed by its Articles of Association which sets out its aims and rules. 

The Board of Directors (Trustees) is ultimately responsible for what happens at Noor Ul Islam. It has appointed the “Women Advisory Board" to advise them on issues, particularly those in relation to Muslim women. The Women Advisory Board does not duplicate the work of the Women's Group, but acts as an advisory team for Trustees. The day to day responsibilities of some areas are then delegated to managers and other staff of the different departments within the Organisation.

## STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT 

Decision making 

Key Personnel The Board of Directors take an active role in the major decisions of the organisation. At regular meetings, Directors will directly or indirectly discuss and involve themselves to ensure projects agreed on are carried out to the correct specifications. The head teacher of the Primary School and the Manager of the Pre-school will plan, organise and manage their respective departments and report back to their sub-committee/Board. 

Mr Aslam Hansa manages the Administration office, planning activities and services with his team. Mrs Quratulain Aboo is the manager of the Aalimah section. She works closely with her team of teachers. 

## Management and staff 

The management of the Organisation is the responsibility of the Trustees who meet formally at least six times a year. The day-to-day management of different departments, such as the Head office, Primary School, Pre-School and Aalimah classes is then delegated to their respective Head teacher or Manager, supported by senior teachers and administrative staffs. 

Mr Majid Ishaque was the Head Teacher of the Primary School in 2020, having started in this role in January 2015. He attended the regular Board of Governors meetings as well as Schoo! Sub Committee meetings and also met the Chairman on a regular basis. 

Mr Aslam Hansa, the Head Office Operations Manager meets regularly with the Chair to keep him informed of management issues and to receive instructions. Aslam is the son of Mr Yusuf Hansa. 

Mrs Hawa Hansa is employed at the Noor UI Islam Pre-School as the manager. Her husband, Ubaid Hansa, is a Trustee. He is excluded from matters to do with staffing or other issues at the pre-school. 

Ms Hamida Assania is employed as the Aalimah department manager. 

All Trustees have complete and independent access to staff, including those who are related to Trustees. They are involved in their supervision and receive regular reports from them. For the sake of impartiality there are times when a Trustee will remove him or herself from matters regarding the relative member of staff or connected person and other Trustees will deal with the case. Remuneration for the Primary School Head teacher and other key personnel are based on performance management reviews against criteria previously set and decided by the Trustees.

## Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of 

## Waltham Forest Noor Ul Islam 

## Opinion 

We have audited the financial statements of Waltham Forest Noor UI Islam (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 December 2020 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’. 

- In our opinion the financial statements: - give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 December 2020 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended; 

- - have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’; and 

- - have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 

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 Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the 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 for 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 charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

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

## Other information 

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon. 

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. 

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this 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. 

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 

- In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: - the information given in the Report of the Trustees for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and 

- - the Report of the Trustees has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. 

Page 13 



Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of Waltham Forest Noor Ul Islam 

- 

Matters on which we are required to report by exception 

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees. 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or 

- - certain disclosures of trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or - we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. 

## Responsibilities of trustees 

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) 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 charitable 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 charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Page 14 



## Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of 

## Waltham Forest Noor Ul Islam 

Our 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 a Report of the Independent Auditors 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. In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we considered the following: 

- the nature of the industry and sector, including the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic across the UK and whether the financial results of our client differed from the industry trends; - the legal and regulatory framework that the Company operates in, focusing on provisions of those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements; - the matters discussed among the audit engagement team during the planning process regarding how and where fraud might occur in the financial statement and any potential indicators of fraud. 

Audit procedures performed included the reviewing the financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with provisions of relevant laws and regulations described as having a direct effect on the financial statements; discussions with the directors' on their own assessment of the risks that irregularities may occur either as a result of fraud or error, their assessment of compliance with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance, including any potential litigation or claims; performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud; in addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, testing the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments; assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias; inspection of relevant legal correspondence and board minutes; and evaluating the business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business. 

As a result of our assessment, it is considered that there are no laws and regulations for which non-compliance may be fundamental to the operating aspects of the business. However, laws and regulations considered to have a direct effect on the financial statements included the UK Companies Act, Employment Laws, Tax and Pensions legislation and Health & Safety legislation. 

No instances of material non-compliance were identified. However, the likelihood of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is limited by the inherent difficulty in detecting irregularities, the effectiveness of the entity's controls, and the nature, timing and extent of the audit procedures performed. Irregularities that result from fraud might be inherently more difficult to detect than irregularities that result from error. There is an unavoidable risk that material misstatements may not be detected, even though the audit has been planned and performed in accordance with ISAs (UK). 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.

## Notes to the Financial Statements 

for the Year Ended 31 December 2020 

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

## Basis of preparing the financial statements 

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) ‘Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective | January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’ and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

## Income 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

Voluntary income is received by way of donations and gifts and is included in the Statement of Financial Activities when trust is entitled to the receipt and the amount can be measured with reasonable certainty. 

Grants, from local council, are recognised in full in the Statement of Financial Activities in the year in which they are received. 

The value of services provided by volunteers is difficult to put a monetary value on and therefore has not been included in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102). 

Fee Income is recognised on a receivable basis. 

## Donations are recognised when they are received. 

## Expenditure 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## Governance costs 

The charity recognises government grants relating to the Coronavirus Business Interruption Scheme on accruals basis. The grants are recognised in the statement of financial activities over the period in which the charity recognises the related costs for which the grant is intended to compensate. Government assistance has also been extended by way of the provision of guarantees. 

## Allocation and apportionment of costs 

The methods and principles for the allocation and apportionment of all costs between the different activity categories of resources set out above are based on the test of whether a cost directly contributes to the particular related source of income. Such identifiable costs are apportioned to the specific activity. whereas all other costs are allocated to support costs of charitable activities. 

Resources expended include attributable VAT, a proportion of which on the project rebuild is recoverable. 

## Tangible fixed assets 

Tangible fixed assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

## Notes to the Financial Statements - continued 

for the Year Ended 31 December 2020 

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued 

## Tangible fixed assets 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

Freehold property - 2% on cost Portable building - 10% on reducing balance Plant and machinery - 25% on cost 

## Taxation 

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities. 

## Fund accounting 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. 

## Leasing commitments 

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. 

## Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits 

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate. 

## Going concern 

The entity has been impacted by Covid-19 both financially and operationally. A number of staff were furloughed for a period and interest free loans were obtained from various sources.Also, the current assets are exceeded by the current liabilities as at the year end. 

The Trustees are confident that it has sufficient resources and support from the community to continue as a going concern. 

It is for these reasons the accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis.
