Achievements and performance

The Main Achievements of the CIO in the period were:

• The CIO continued to promote religious, cultural, and musical heritage for devotees across the UK during events by holding musical events, Pooja and children’s workshops. They also continued to deliver the two main flagship events of Shivratri and Navratri.

• The CIO continues to provide hot food and other essential items for the homeless in central London monthly through outreach events. The service generally feeds between 100 to 120 people. The CIO also provides breakfast meals in an East London school for children and provides essential items to their families when required. Breakfast is provided to at least 35 children a day.

• The CIO purchased a van this year which helps significantly with its logistical ability to raise funds through private religious/musical events and in serving the homeless in the city

Financial review

The Reserves at the year-end totalled £35,372 and were in the current bank accounts. Reserves were maintained at their level as to ensure funds were readily available for expansion of charity works. Reserves are also maintained to fund working capital and to fund shortfalls in charitable income when income does not reach expected levels.

Further financial review details

The CIO relies on donations and offerings from its members and the public. It is recognised that donations and offerings can fluctuate from year to year. The trustees aim to ensure that the CIO has sufficient resources to continue its activities and meet its obligations to his end, it is considered prudent that sufficient liquid funds are maintained. The CIO does not involve itself in any speculative investment activities and ensures funds are always kept safe and secure.

Declaration

The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above.
