## Trustees’ Re ort p 

## Who are we? 

At SPOT Project we focus on building and supporting the people of tomorrow. From the outset, we have worked specifically in the Gambia and the United Kingdom. Our core aims revolve around meeting the educational needs of youth in society and enriching those in poverty and destitution with the skills to enable them to prosper. 

## Our vision 

To see a world where we empower every individual to be the best they can through education & development. 

## Our mission 

SPOT Project aims to illuminate the hearts, faces and minds of underprivilege and deprived individuals around the world. 

Education - We aim to build institutions through which we can educate, develop and empower individuals with essential skills to fulfil their potential. 

Development - To provide access to basic necessities to improve living conditions of every individual. 

Empower - To motivate a generation a that contributes to a better world. 

## Our values 

- 1) Principled; we are principled people who act with moral integrity and honesty. 

- 2) Work Ethic; we are focused, organised and work hard beyond expectations. 

- 3) Committed; we are consistent, committed and driven for our cause. 

- 4) Skilled; we are practical, have knowledge and experience in our field. 

- 5) Sacrifice; we face the challenges and are ready to sacrifice. 

## Our Principles 

1. Youth; Youth are the future, we are focused on them and their success. 

2. Support/Empowerment; We believe in supporting and empowering the ‘people of tomorrow’ to be the best they can, so that they can be those who change society.

## Where the charity operates 

- Throughout England And Wales

## Reserves Policy 

Reserves here are used to describe the part of the charity’s funds that are freely available for its operating purposes, not subject to commitments, planned expenditure and spending limits. They exclude restricted funds, which are subject to conditions of use, as specified by donors. We aim to maintain reserves that would provide at least 6 months operational continuity in the event of any instance in which the charity would have to temporarily halt its activities. We are currently operating well above our minimum reserves level 

## Going Concern 

The Trustees confirm that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity can meet its obligations as they come due, and has sufficient resource to continue for another year at the time of signing these accounts; as a result, it is a going concern. The charity has had a low cost base with a number of volunteers offering significant support, but we will comfortably carry the cost of employed staff in future financial years. 

## Financial review 

Donations were again around £1.4m this year, as we continued a strong level of engagement with our donor base. The balance Sheet has reserves of £1.6m, which leaves us in a good position to continue to deliver the projects that we are committed to. The total restricted reserves of £0.7m, contain £0.4m reserved for educational projects, which covers ongoing resource and physical support we provide in Gambia, and is likely to continue for a number of years. 

## Strategic review 

This was our third year of operation as a charity, thankfully we were able to build on a powerful start despite the interruptions to our work from the Covid pandemic. It was an extremely challenging time through the Covid-19 pandemic period, but alhamdulillah we managed to get our team to operate from their homes efficiently. Most of our international operations were severely affected by the global pandemic, but we learnt to focus, reduce costs, and manage delivery expectations. Our beneficiaries required our help more than ever, and 

5 



through dedication and sacrifice, we were able to deliver on our core work: Food, Education, Water and Zakat. 

Our main programme for the year was to complete the building work for the multi-purpose centre in Chamaya, an isolated area in northern Gambia. The centre will feature a school, health clinic and a function hall. The village is in dire need of help, especially in health-related matters and skill development. 

In the area of water, we were able to continue building boreholes throughout the Gambia, providing water to those disadvantaged who needed it most. We also maintained and checked the boreholes we built in the previous years. We have made it a regular service to check on all our previous water projects once a year to ensure everything is in order. So far, we have built over 120 boreholes in hospitals, schools and in the most desolate areas in the Gambia. We have always strongly believed in maintaining the highest of standards in the construction and maintenance of our water services, something we are extremely proud of. 

In the provision of ‘Zakah’ we were able to distribute Zakat to hundreds of families in the more deprived areas of the Gambia. Covid hit the Gambia badly and the poverty levels increased through 2021. We were able to distribute Zakah through the provision and direct support for families through the Covid period. 

Our Academy, schools and masjids were extremely successful in educating hundreds of children and young adults on a variety of career paths and secondary-level skills. 

In the UK we carried out workshops to help promote outdoor activities for young adults and promote the idea of leisure in the building of a solid foundation to success. We worked with children and young adults of all ages in the delivery of our workshops and leisure activities. We have made plans this year to extend our work in the UK and we plan to establish a food bank programme in the coming year. 

Main activities carried out to meet the above objectives for the year: 

1. Fundraised for and built the Multi-Purpose Centre in Chamaya, featuring a school, health clinic and multi-function hall. 

2. Completed the building of a Girl’s School. 

3. Fundraised for the ‘Water is Life’ borehole project. We were able to raise our total to 120 boreholes overall build in the Gambia. 

4. Fundraised and delivered Zakat following our Gambia Zakah programme. 

5. We continued in our orphan sponsorship project and built on its success in 2021. 

6. We fundraised for our feeding programmes. We delivered food throughout the Covid period in the Gambia. 

6 



## Volunteers Contribution to the Charity 

As with 2020, in 2021 and 2022 volunteers were at the forefront of our operations and delivery of services. Without them, we were unable to deliver and facilitate the work we carried out. We presently have over sixty non-fixed volunteers and 25 fixed volunteers. We additionally allowed those volunteers who worked closely with us throughout the year to fly out to Gambia to see where the money they helped raise, was spent. We aim to grow the number of volunteers in our organisation as they are the core of our work. We have decided to adopt the slogan ‘the people’s charity’ because of our strong link with our volunteers and volunteers in general. 

## Main Achievements of the Year 

- Completed the building work for the Girls school and Multi-Purpose Centre 

- - Completed 120 Boreholes to provide water to thousands of needy people. 

- Launched a successful Zakat programme which is still ongoing and has changed people’s lives. 

- Managed to complete the building of two Schools and two Masjids. 

- Opened our primary school to pupils in the local area, 

- Added to the orphan sponsorship programme which benefits hundreds of children. 

- Delivered hundreds of food parcels to struggling families in the UK during the global pandemic. 

- Delivered a feeding programme in Gambia to help the needy that were struggling due to the global pandemic. 

- Launched a higher education programme to develop our older students further. 

- - Covered the running costs of all our projects. 

This was our most challenging year, the Covid pandemic affected both our UK and international operations. Nevertheless, the organisation adapted in difficult times and through perseverance and sacrifice by both staff and volunteers we had a better-than-expected year. We were able to not only meet our targets but once again exceed them. Like we were taught by Allah, “Verily, with hardship comes ease”. 

## Statement of Trustees' responsibilities 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulatory requirements applicable to registered charities in England & Wales. The Trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards) and applicable law, and in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (Charities SORP (FRS102)). 

7 



Under charity law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity, its income and application of resources of the Charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 2015 (FRS 102); 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, 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 Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Charity’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

In so far as the trustees are aware: 

- there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company’s auditor is unaware; and 

- the trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any 

relevant audit information and to establish that the auditor is aware of that information.

## THE SPOT PROJECT 

(A Charitable Incorporated Organisation) Independent Auditor’s  Report for the year ended 31 May 2022 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the accounts of The Spot Project (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 31 May 2022 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows, principal accounting policies and the notes to the accounts. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’ (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). In our opinion, the accounts: 

- Give a true and fair view of the state of the charity’s affairs as at 31 May 2022 and of its income and expenditure for the year then ended; 

- Have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and 

- Have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011. 

## **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 auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the accounts section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the accounts 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 accounts, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the accounts 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 charity’s ability 

9 



to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the accounts 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 and accounts, other than the accounts and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the accounts does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

In connection with our audit of the accounts, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the accounts 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 there is a material misstatement in the accounts or a material misstatement of the other information. 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. 

## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- The information given in the trustees’ annual report is inconsistent in any material respect with the accounts; or — Sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or 

- The accounts are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or 

- We have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. 

## **Responsibilities of trustees** 

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts 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 accounts that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error 

In preparing the accounts, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’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 charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

10 



## **Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the accounts as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report 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 accounts. 

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. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: 

Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows: 

- The engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations; 

- We identified the laws and regulations applicable to the charity through discussions with management, and from our knowledge and experience of the sector, and assessed compliance. 

- We assessed the susceptibility of the charity’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by: 

- Making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and 

- Considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. 

- - Checking and making enquiries of unusual transactions. 

There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of noncompliance. 

Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the trustees and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. 

11 



Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the accounts is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report. 

## **Use of our report** 

This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and with regulations made under section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

## **(A Charitable Incorporated Organisation) Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 May 2022** 

## **1.7 Going concern:** 

At the time of approving the accounts, the trustees have assessed that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least another 12 months, thus adopting the going concern basis of accounts presentation. The large unrestricted reserves (£1m) at year-end, built up via successful campaigns, provides sufficient security for any large unforseen costs the charity may face.
