## **Objectives and Activities** 

||SORP reference||
|---|---|---|
|Summary of the purposes of<br>the Charity as set out in its<br>governing document|Para 1.17|**To provide Islamic education for the**<br>**benefit of the public through the**<br>**provision of classes, lectures and**<br>**teachings on the Islamic faith to**<br>**enlighten Muslims and non-Muslims**<br>**about the religion. Furthermore, to**<br>**promote social inclusion for the public**<br>**benefit by preventing people from**<br>**becoming socially excluded, relieving**<br>**the needs of those people who are**<br>**socially excluded and assisting them to**<br>**integrate into society.**<br>**Note: ‘Socially excluded’ means being**<br>**excluded from society, or part of**<br>**society, as a result of one or more**<br>**factors including: financial hardship, old**<br>**age, ill health (physical or mental),**<br>**family breakdown or being a member of**<br>**a socially and economically deprived**<br>**community.**|
|Summary of the main<br>activities in relation to those<br>purposes for the public<br>benefit, in particular, the<br>activities, projects or<br>services identified in the<br>accounts.|Para 1.17 and<br>1.19|**The provision of interactive classroom**<br>**sessions focused on Islamic knowledge,**<br>**teachings & the various schools of**<br>**thought, as well as:**<br>•<br>**Quran lessons, translation &**<br>**understanding,**<br>•<br>**Self-improvement activities,**<br>•<br>**Use of audio, visual & video**<br>**formats,**<br>•<br>**Various classroom activities &**<br>**games,**<br>•<br>**Group sessions, educational**<br>**trips, quizzes and Q&A sessions.**<br>•<br>**The Charity also sells books and**<br>**educational material e.g., course**<br>**folders, notes etc.**|





**The provision of fundraising events to generate public awareness and to provide assistance to the less fortunate/socially excluded. The Charity also provides physical and emotional support to the less fortunate/socially excluded, including elderly people and the terminally ill, aiming to improve their quality of life. This includes but is not limited to, assistance in day-to-day social and domestic activities, hospital visits etc. Due to the Covid19 Pandemic:** • **Classes in this financial year were conducted onsite until November 2020. Thereafter classes were moved online due to health and safety reasons. Unfortunately, the classroom hire agreement was contracted until February 2021 and despite numerous attempts, we were unable to obtain an early termination or significant reduction in rental fees from the Landlord. Financial contractual obligations for renting the classroom, therefore, had to be paid until February 2021 even though the room was not used/occupied from November 2020 onwards. From February 2021, a physical classroom was not hired and educational activities were conducted solely online via Zoom. This had a positive impact and allowed the Charity to offer a further number of online courses and increase its online presence. Classes have remained online since December 2020.** • **With many people being affected financially, Nurulquran, in collaboration with the registered Charity, Sufra, provided 920 hot meals to those in need during Ramadan 2021. Furthermore, a special meal was provided on the Eid Day Festival to share the festivity with those less fortunate. Hot meals were provided to those in financial difficulty, experiencing homelessness and/or unable to cook for themselves. This project was for the community at large** 



|||**regardless of faith, race, gender,**<br>**background or age.**<br>•<br>**In August 2021, the Charity was**<br>**able to provide a further 270 hot**<br>**meals for those struggling and**<br>**desperately in need.**<br>**Furthermore, and to achieve Charity**<br>**objectives, a fundraising project was**<br>**initiated to raise funds to enable the**<br>**purchase of a dedicated Nurulquran**<br>**property/site. The vision for this being**<br>**the establishment, stabilisation and**<br>**further growth of the Charity. To**<br>**encourage participation and inclusion,**<br>**onsite events were held (outside of**<br>**lockdown) for the local community to**<br>**give their insights & feedback on this**<br>**project. Online Facebook fundraisers**<br>**were also created, and fundraising was**<br>**carried out both onsite and online.**|
