Volunteers
Insaaf is predominantly a volunteer driven charity. The volunteers are responsible for managing the projects, activities, events and other daily affairs under the guidance of the trustees. Any charity trips and related costsare also self-funded to ensure all the donations are utilised towards the benefit of the public. Insaaf isextremely grateful to all its volunteers for their dedication, continuous commitment, and heart-warming efforts for being the driving force of the charity.
Achievements and Performance
Insaaf managed to raise the amount of £46,744.53 during the stated period. Our aim for this year was to continue our support for the Rohingya in Bangladesh and to expand our work in other areas as well. The COVID restrictions were still in place for most destinations but thanks to the generosity of our donors and the hard work of our dedicated volunteers we managed to fulfil the following projects:
- Food Distribution Azerbaijan:
Project Cost: € 4,521.29
Following the Karabakh conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia, Insaaf decided to help those affected by this conflict. We collaborated with Team Humanity to distribute food and basic provisions to the affected. We managed to supply food packages to approx. 183 families.
- Ramadhan Food Distribution Bangladesh:
Project Cost: £8,220
We continued our support for the Rohingya in Bangladesh during the Ramadhan period by distributing food supplies with assistance of our partners, Restless Beings. We managed to distribute 200 food packs to the Rohingya in Cox Bazaar, Bangladesh.
- Qurbani Greece:
Project Cost: £10,350
Insaaf collaborated with All 4 Humanity and distributed Qurbani* meat of 90 sheep amongst the most vulnerable refugees in Lesvos, Greece.
- Qurbani Bangladesh:
Project Cost: £2,800
Insaaf collaborated with Restless Beings and distributed Qurbani* meat of 5 cows to the Rohingyas in Cox Bazaar, Bangladesh.
*: Qurbanī refers to the ritual sacrifice of a livestock animal during the Muslim Festival of Eid.
Gift Aid:
Insaaf received £4,264.05 Gift Aid for the year 2021.
The sum of £890.46 was utilised for the operational costs of the charity. The rest of the Gift Aid amount remained available to fund Charitable Activities as well as further operational costs.
Financial Review
The reserves show a total of £57,901.44 as of 31 December 2021.
The trustees are of the opinion that to maintain unrestricted reserves at this level appears to be a prudent course of action to take.

On behalf of the board of Trustees
S Tchikou R El Korchi Trustee Trustee Dated: 22 October 2021 Dated: 22 October 2021
Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities
The trustees are required to prepare financial statements for each financial period, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its financial activities for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent
• State whether the policies followed are in accordance with applicable accounting standards, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements
- Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records, which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention of fraud and other irregularities.
Independent Examiner’s Report
To the trustees of INSAAF
I report on the accounts of the company for the period ended 31 December 2021, which are set out on pages 11 to 14.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this period under section 144(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 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;
-
To follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
To 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 suchmatters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an auditand
consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and thereport 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:
-
To keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
-
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
have not been met; or
- (2) To which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
