Section D Achievements and performance
| Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year |
During the year, we successfully raised £46,021 to help carry out our charitable work. We also carried out the following charitable activities during the year: We made cash donations to some disadvantaged individuals and deprived communities in need to help them meet their short-term essential basic needs. We provided training & workshop for the disadvantaged children in the community to help them with their GCSE exam preparations. We also provided them with career advice on various career options that they may consider to embark on after successful completion of secondary education. We organised IT training and workshop to safeguard parents and their children against the danger of misuse of social media. The aim of this workshop was to empower the parents to have some amount of controls over their children's uses of information technology, in particular the harms associated with the misuse of social media. We organised conferences to promote Islamic values such as kindness to people and animal, charity giving, forgiveness, honesty, patience, justice, family value, virtue of education, respecting parents and elders, keeping promises, and controlling one’s anger as commanded or encouraged in the Holy Quran. Our conferences also were focused on educating the community/public about the important role the Islamic religion can play in promoting peace and harmony among people in the community and in inspiring people to integrate into the wider community and to help build a strong. Peaceful, friendly community. We distributed food to individuals on low income in the disadvantaged communities. We organised Madrassah for Muslim children in the community to educate them about the essentials of Islamic faith and mannerism. Our main goal is to help the Muslim children to understand Islamic faith properly and learn to tolerate other faiths and fit in with the wider community and become productive- valued members of society at large. We provided counselling and support service to help /support members of disadvantaged community to go through their social problems such as family problems, immigration matters, unemployment issues, financial distress and many others. We organised several outdoor sporting and recreational events for the community youth. the purposes of these events were to keep the children or youth off the streets and get them engaged in sporting and recreational |

Section E Financial review
Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves
Details of any funds materially in deficit
Our policy on reserves is very simple. Our trustees always use best practice to ensure that reasonable fund is put aside in order to protect the charity against drops in income. The trustees put fund that is needed for immediate use to carry out the work of the charity under unrestricted/general funds. They also put aside fund that is designated to carrying out a particular charitable project under restricted funds. The trustees may move funds between unrestricted fund and restricted fund as they see necessary to do so. Currently, we are putting aside some fund for buying a premises for the charity in the future. Hence, we place designated funds for this project under the restricted funds. NO DEFICIT
