Trustee Annual Report

Period - 1[st] June 2023 to 31[st] May 2024

Chair’s Statement

In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate.

As I write this final statement in my capacity as Chair and outgoing CEO of SPOT, I am filled with a deep sense of reflection and hope. The past twelve months have been both challenging and inspiring, a year in which we’ve been tested, stretched, and ultimately strengthened by the grace of Allah and the unwavering support of our community.

SPOT was always intended to be more than just another charity. It was founded on the belief that sincerity, accountability, and action can transform lives, not just the lives of those we serve, but also those who serve. That vision continues to guide us, even as we evolve into a more structured, multi-programme organisation with an expanding footprint in both the UK and abroad.

This year has brought significant change. We saw major internal transitions, most notably my stepping down from the role of CEO, and the appointment of a new Business Operations Director to support the charity through this new phase. These shifts were not easy, but they were necessary part of our natural growth and a sign that SPOT is maturing beyond dependence on any one individual. My role has now shifted to supporting the transition, assisting with strategic guidance and compliance as the team embeds a new operating model.

Organisationally, we have made remarkable progress. We delivered successful campaigns including a deeply moving Ramadan drive, expanded our donor base, initiated a new event strategy, and continued to deliver vital aid and education in The Gambia. Our Orphan Fund, Zakah disbursement, and Water for Life projects have remained at the heart of our work, supported by an increasingly engaged community of givers. These aren’t just numbers on a spreadsheet, they are Boreholes built, children clothed, orphans taught, and lives dignified.

Yet we have also been tested. Gaps in communication, reliance on temporary financial platforms, and the loss of campaign momentum in certain areas are realities we must confront with humility and resolve. We are not immune to human error, but we are committed to learning from it. Trustees have taken these issues seriously, and we have set in motion a corrective course that I believe will lead to a more stable, professional, and transparent SPOT.

3

What gives me the greatest hope is the calibre of people involved, trustees, volunteers, staff, and donors, who care deeply and sincerely about the impact we are making. They are not driven by fame or recognition, but by a quiet resolve to serve the Ummah, to honour the trust placed in them, and to deliver real value to those in need.

As I transition into a new chapter in my personal and professional life, I remain a servant of this cause. I will continue to be available for strategic support and will, Insha’Allah, be among the many who watch and contribute to SPOT’s ongoing growth from a place of love, faith, and deep gratitude.

May Allah accept our efforts, forgive our shortcomings, and continue to bless SPOT and all who support it.

Bilal Abdul-Khaliq Chair of Trustees

Our Year in Review

The 2023–2024 year for SPOT has been marked by both internal restructuring and missiondriven impact delivery. Despite challenges in governance and finance, we have witnessed a significant renewal in community engagement, strengthened project delivery, and bold steps toward international expansion.

Our work in The Gambia continued as our cornerstone, with sustained delivery of aid and education. The Orphan Fund remains one of our most supported programmes, and our Water for Life campaign helped deliver clean water to remote communities. Education-focused initiatives like Qur’an Memorisation, Girls’ School Sponsorship, and Higher Education Grants provided crucial academic support, while Food for All and Zakah distribution responded to rising poverty and seasonal needs.

Meanwhile, our work in the UK took shape through new engagement channels such as the 2K Challenge, the Life of SPOT premiere, and various community events and volunteer drives. These helped us maintain visibility and develop deeper relationships with our supporters.

Leadership and Governance Developments

Perhaps the most defining shift internally was the formal handover of executive responsibilities. With the departure of our founder-CEO from daily operations, the appointment of a dedicated Business Operations Director enabled us to distribute responsibilities more sustainably and introduce clearer internal systems.

4

Weekly review cycles, project dashboards, and a new operations system were introduced to support greater accountability. Trustees are now more engaged in financial oversight and project monitoring.

That said, there have structural weaknesses, particularly around documentation, audit preparation, and banking infrastructure. We are committed to resolving these issues as a matter of urgency.

Risks and Organisational Challenges

Several key risks shaped our strategy this year:

Vision for the Year Ahead

As we enter the next chapter of SPOT’s journey, our goals are clear:

International Setup: Finalise registration in Holland and continue progress in Norway and Canada, expanding the global impact of SPOT.

5

Conclusion

The Board of Trustees remains firmly committed to the founding mission of SPOT Project: to serve with sincerity, to empower with purpose, and to uplift with integrity. This mission is not just a slogan, it is the lens through which we evaluate every decision, every project, and every penny spent. Our work is a trust, and we continue to carry it with both gratitude and responsibility.

This past year has been one of deep reflection and bold transition. We experienced significant organisational change, including shifts in leadership, financial processes, and internal structures. These changes were not without their challenges. We faced shortcomings, most notably in meeting our standards in donor communication and around managing our in house operations, and we do not shy away from acknowledging them. But we face these matters not defensively, but with conviction. We see in these moments an opportunity to reform, to realign, and to grow. Our response is rooted in accountability, but also in faith: in Allah’s guidance, in the strength of our community, and in the transformative power of sincere action.

As we close this year’s report, we proudly reaffirm our vision:

And we restate our mission, which continues to guide every step of our journey:

We remain focus on our core areas:

Education:

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 the living conditions of every individual.

6

Empowerment:

to motivate a generation that contributes to a better world

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all who have walked this path with us. To our donors, may your giving be a light for you in this life and the next. To our volunteers, your service is the foundation upon which so much of our work is built. To our teams in The Gambia, in the UK, and across our growing international presence, your dedication transforms our mission into reality. And to our supporters, partners, and friends, thank you for believing in this work and for holding us to a higher standard. As we look to the year ahead, we do so with optimism, clarity, and resolve. There is much still to do. But with sincerity as our compass, and trust as our currency, we believe that SPOT Project will continue to grow in impact, in professionalism, and in heart. M

May Allah accept this work from all of us, forgive our shortcomings, and grant us the ability to carry the trust of this Ummah with honesty, strength, and humility. Ameen.

Financial Review: For the financial year ending 31st May 2024, SPOT Project's total surplus was £597,108, whereas the preceding year had a deficit of £48,805. The charity has had to manage with digital banking platforms in the year, which has restricted the extent to which it could deliver charitable objectives. As at the year-end, the charity had total reserves of £2.2m (2023: £1.6m). £1.4m of this lies within restricted projects, which will be executed over the next year.

THE SPOT PROJECT

(A Charitable Incorporated Organisation) Independent Auditor’s Report for the year ended 31 May 2024

Opinion

We have audited the accounts of The Spot Project (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 31 May 2024 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:

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

8

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:

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.

9

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:

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.

10

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 2024

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 unrestricted reserves (£0.7m) at year-end, built up via successful campaigns, provides sufficient security for any large unforseen costs the charity may face.
