The Trustees are pleased to present their annual Trustees Report together with the financial statements of Connections of Hope Foundation for the year ended 31 December 2022. 

The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102). 

## **Chairman’s Report:** 

The Board of trustees are pleased to present this Annual Report and financial statements for the Connections of Hope Foundation from 1[st] January 2022 to 31[st] December 2022. 

The main aims of the organisation in 2022 were to continue focus on growth and governance policies and procedures. This meant to expand our work to all similar organisations and provide current guidance and technical support in the areas of governance, compliance and risk management. 

The Connections of Hope Foundation has continued to establish all policies and procedures related to its relationship with other entities through multiple meetings and workshops. 

All Trustees met during the course of the year and decided to review its technical strategy focusing on developing policies and promoting best practise amongst other similar organisation. The implementation of this strategy has led to positive outcomes as many organisations have benefited from the regular training and awareness sessions setup by the Foundation. 

The global financial crisis and the post corona crisis have been a challenging period for the charity as budgets are restricted and financial challenges facing the wider world are even greater. 

We expect the Foundation in 2023 to be a year of even greater impact for expanding to supporting more organisations and ultimately impacting more beneficiaries. I wish to express my sincere thanks to our Trustees, for their commitment and continued support to help develop the Foundation’s future priorities and shape our services across the communities that we aim to serve.

**CONNECTIONS OF HOPE FOUNDATION** 

**REPORT OF THE BOARD** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022** 

## **Principal risks and uncertainties** 

The Board of Trustees of Connection of Hope Foundation is committed to maintaining a strong risk management framework to ensure the organisation is able to manage risk appropriately. This will be through maximising potential opportunities whilst minimising the adverse effects of risk by having appropriate customised systems and controls in place for reporting and action. 

Risk Management Process 

The general risk management process will include the following steps: 

1. An annual review of the previous year's risk management report. 

2. A risk identification exercise for the year ahead consisting of an evaluation of identified risks. 

3. Recording and monitoring of risks using a risk register. 

4. Assigning management and responsibility for risks to appropriate persons. 

Risk management forms part of Connection of Hope Foundation's system of internal controls and is supported by its policies and procedures of the organisation, covering but not limited to: 

o IT and Data Protection 

o HR 

o Health & Safety 

- Finance Manual 

- Governance 

o Programmes o Fundraising 

The risk of falling short of these standards is mitigated as far as possible by ensuring that appropriate policies and working practices are adopted in each area, department and that staff are adequately experienced and trained to manage this. 

. 

## **Going Concern:** 

With the onslaught of the cost-of-living crisis which has hit Europe and in particular the United Kingdom continues to have an impact throughout this year with few signs that it will curtail on the country’s economy. This naturally is felt by organisations like ourselves to rationalise with a tight squeeze on expenditure. The Trustees have concluded that the charity operation will still carry on to 2023 and that the entity is still a going concern for the short and long term future. 

## **Public Benefit** 

The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the Charity Commissions' general guidance on Public Benefit when reviewing and shaping the charity's aims and objectives. 

It is estimated that there are around three million Muslims living in the United Kingdom, many of whom have been born and raised in the U.K. Connections of Hope foundation aims to provide public benefit by supporting and making grants to organisations that serve communities in the UK. 

## **Reserve Policy** 

Trustees have agreed on a reserve policy were at least 6 months’ worth of operational expenses will be available at the end of each financial year **where possible** .

**CONNECTIONS OF HOPE FOUNDATION** 

## **REPORT OF THE BOARD** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022** 

## **Statement of directors/Trustees’ responsibilities** 

Connection of Hope Foundation’s trustees are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and Financial Statements in accordance with applicable law of the United Kingdom’s Accounting Standards. 

Companies/Charity Law requires the Trustees to prepare yearly financial statements, giving a true and accurate state of affairs of the charity and the incoming resources and application of resources. This includes income and expenditure for the period. 

The Trustees have the responsibility of keeping adequate accounting records that disclose reasonable accuracy at any time of the financial position of the charity, to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011. Trustees are also responsible to safeguard the assets of the charity and reasonable steps must be taken for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

In order to prepare these financial statements, trustees are required to do the following: 

- Observe methods and principles in the Charities SORP 2015 (FRS 102). 

- State whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements. 

- Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently. 

- Prepare financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation. 

So far the Trustees are aware that: 

There is no relevant audit information of which the charity’s auditor is unaware; and 

As the Trustees of the charity, all steps have been taken to make themselves aware of relevant audit information and to establish that the charity’s auditors are also aware of this information. 

## **Independent Examiner** 

An independent examination was carried out by HRHS Accountancy, Certified accountants.

**REPORT OF THE BOARD** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022** 

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Connection Of Hope Foundation** 

I report on the accounts which are set out below 

## **Respective responsibilities of the Trustees’** 

The trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this period under section144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act); and state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair view”, and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

- In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements: 

- a. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and 

b. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities 

2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Connections of Hope Foundation meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes. 

## **Going Concern** 

The trustees are not aware of any material uncertainties which suggest the charity cannot continue as a going concern. The accounting policies have been consistently applied for all material items. 

## a) **Incoming resources** 

Voluntary income is received by way of donations and gifts and is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when West London Islamic Cultural Centre is entitled to the funds, receipt is probable, and the amount can be measured. 

All income is accounted for when the Charity has entitlement to the funds, the amount can be quantified, and receipt of the funds is probable. Where income is received in advance of providing goods and/or services, it is deferred until the charity becomes entitled to that income. 

## b) **Resources expended** 

## Resources expended are recognised on an accrual’s basis. 

Fundraising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of disseminating information in support of the charitable activities. 

Support costs are those costs incurred indirectly in support of expenditure on the programmes of the Charity. Allocation of support costs and staff costs have been proportionated to the total of programme costs and corresponding thematic programme area. 

Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the Charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements. They include legal advice for trustees, cost of trustees' meetings, audit fee and internal audit costs. These costs are allocated in the same way as other support costs.

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)** 

## **Debtors**

## **Cash at bank and in hand**

## **Taxation** 

As a registered charity, West London Islamic Cultural Centre is exempt from taxation of income and gains to the extent that its income and gains are applicable to charitable purposes only. 

## **Key judgements and estimation uncertainty** 

The preparation of the financial statements requires the Trustees to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements. If in the future such estimates and assumptions, which are based on the Trustees' best judgment at the date of the financial statements, deviate from the actual circumstances, the original estimates and assumptions will be modified as appropriate in the year in which the circumstances change. The Trustees' do not believe that there are any significant areas of estimation uncertainty that need to be disclosed.
