Trustees Report (Including Directors' Report)
For the Year ended 31 March 2024
The Trustees present their report together with the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024.
Objectives and Principal Activities
To further such charitable purposes (charitable under english law) as the trustees see fit from time to time in particular but not limited to the advancement of education and relief of sickness for the public benefit by sponsoring orphans and making grants to organisations and to registered, excepted and exempt charities.
Alfityanu Humanitaire United Kingdom is registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) under the Charities Act 2011 on the 12th February 2020.
Going Concern
Given that most of the CIO's funding comes from members subscriptions and donations from individuals, the Trustees believe that, while uncertainty exists, this does not pose a material uncertainty that would cast doubt on the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern. The Trustees therefore, consider it appropriate for the financial statements to be prepared on a going concern basis.
Statement of the responsibilities of the Board
The Board of Trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. Charity Commission legislation requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the trustees have adopted the provision of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), Accounting and Reporting by Charities in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland”). In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
- make judgments 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; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company 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 CIO and enable it to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. It is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the CIO and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Risk Management
Trustees need to be aware of all risks facing charities. To overcome any potential risks, at Alfityanu, we are always devising ways of improving risk management through better education and training, improving and adopting new processes.
Due diligence are carried out on trustees and projects. Regular risk management appraisals are carried data management, cash handling if any and banking.
We always work with professional organisations and individuals to keep ahead of any regulations relating to our CIO.

For the year ended 31 March 2024 (continued)
Activities During the Year 2023/24
The CIO is embarking on a new mission to support youth in the UK. In addition, it is actively supporting its sister organization, Alfityanu Humanitaire Senegal, in the construction of a hospital in rural Senegal, specifically in Kaolack, Taiba Niassen. The CIO has played a key role in raising funds through GoFundMe to complete the paediatric ward of the hospital. Alongside its regular annual activities, the CIO has also expanded its efforts to support needy families in Senegal during Eid-ul-Adha (the Islamic Feast of Sacrifice), in line with our organizational objectives.
1. National Lottery Community Fund
The CIO successfully secured funding from the National Lottery Community Fund to run a six-month workshop program, and a subsequent large conference aimed at empowering Black youth in our communities. The CIO was granted £10,000, which was used to organise three workshops per month over the six-month period. The funds covered venue hire, PA system rental, food and drinks, and facilitated the involvement of community elders in the program.
This initiative was focused on the Greater London area and was completed successfully, with many youths
participating and providing positive feedback. A report was submitted to the National Lottery, who were pleased with
the outcome to the point where they encouraged us to reapply for funding next year to run similar programs.
2. Orphanage Sponsor
Losing both parents at a young age is undeniably one of the most challenging and difficult experiences for any child. Recognizing this, Alfityanu Humanitaire UK has made it a priority to support this vulnerable group as part of its mission. Over the past year, the CIO has provided crucial assistance to 10 orphans (2023: 10)—7 in Senegal and 3 in The Gambia—by covering their educational needs, including school fees, books, uniforms, and more. Additionally, the CIO has supported their general welfare, ensuring access to essentials such as food, medical care, and clothing.
3. Eid-ul-Adha (Islamic Feast of Sacrifice)
During the celebration of the feast of sacrifice in June 2023, The CIO was able to provide funding of £1,331 (2022: £1,335), (2021: £1,500) for the purchase of Rams for sacrifice and distributed the meat to the poor and needy families in Senegal.
Financial Review and Summary
Alfityanu Humanitaire's main source of funding is from members subscriptions and donations from individuals.
During the year, a total of £15,837 (2023: £10,962 ) was raised of which £11,263 (2023: £11,078) was spent on the
charity's activities. This leaves a surplus of £4,574 (2023: £116 deficit) which is credited to the reserves account.
Future Plans
This year’s program focused on youths in the Greater London area, particularly vulnerable Black male youths aged 18 to 30 who are at risk of being involved in crime and violence. Due to its success, we are motivated to continue the program next year with an even stronger commitment to making a difference.
Our aim is to provide education on culture, values, norms, and traditions, empowering young men with a greater sense of belonging and transforming their outlook on life. We believe that early intervention is crucial in guiding these young boys, modelling positive behaviours, and helping them stay on a positive path.

Report of the Trustees
For the year ended 31 March 2024 (continued)
Next year, we will hold monthly workshops, specialist-led conferences, and counselling sessions, creating safe spaces for youth to express themselves. Through activities such as dressing, open discussions, dramatisations, games, and engaging with food recipes, arts, and music, we will encourage them to connect with their roots and develop a deeper understanding of their identity and potential.
The CIO is continuously looking to expand its board of trustees to include members with the right expertise to become trustees

Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Year ended 31 March 2024
1. Principal Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland", Accounting and Reporting by Charities" the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) for charities applying FRS 102.
Going concern
At the time of approving the accounts, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the CIO has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, the trustees’ continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the accounts.
Incoming resources
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy
Resources expended
Expenditure is accounted for on an accrual basis and has been classified under headings that agregrate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on the basis consistent with the use of resources.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
| Land | Not depreciated | Not depreciated |
|---|---|---|
| Buildings | 2% | Straight line |
| Computer equipment | 20% | Straight line |
| Office equipment | 20% | Straight line |
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

Notes to the Financial Statements
For the year ended 31 March 2024 (continued)
Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the CIO reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in income/ (expenditure for the year, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.
Recognised impairment losses are reversed if, and only if, the reasons for the impairment loss have ceased to apply. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method

For the year ended 31 March 2024 (continued)
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled
Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the CIO’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods
