Trustees' Report
The trustees present the annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the Charity's Trust deed, the Charities Act 2011 and “Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" (effective from 1 January 2015).
Objectives and activities
The Trustees hold the Trust Fund and its income upon trust to apply them for the religious and charitable purpose, particularly to administer, manage and organize the affairs of the Dawoodi Bohra Jamaat of Milton Keynes as per the “12 Umoor Programme” introduced by the 53rd al-Dai al Mutlaq, His Holiness Dr Syedna Mufaddal Saifuddin TUS and particularly for the following purposes.
-
To advance and propagate education and learning, including the administration and organisation of religious and temporal affairs, of the Dawoodi Bohra Jamaat of Milton Keynes and to practise and observe Islamic religion in conformity with al-Quran, Islamic Shariat and the Fatimi philosophy, culture and traditions, all as interpreted by al-Dai al-Mutlaq.
-
To advance education and learning including, but not limited to, supporting religious schools, secular educational institutions and scholastic prizes and promoting literature and languages, especially the Arabic language and Lisan al-Dawat.
-
The relief of need, hardship and distress.
-
The provision and assistance in the provision of facilities for the recreation and other leisure time occupations of the beneficiaries particularly for women and young people in the interests of social welfare and so that their condition of life may be improved.
-
To advance Islam and to provide other charitable relief in accordance with the terms of the Trust Deed.
-
The policy of the Trust continues to be to seek support and provide for the aims as stated.
The Trust organises events where the teaching of Islam and the nature of the Islamic faith is shared with nonMuslims.
The Trustees confirm that they have paid due regard to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Trust's aims and objectives in setting the grant making policy for the year.
The Trust has established its grant making policy to achieve its objects for the public benefit for the advancement of religious and charitable purposes of the Dawoodi Bohra Jamaat of Milton Keynes in particular and the community at large. Grants are made at the discretion of the Trustees in respect of any application from individuals or institutions that may apply for assistance within the objects of the Trust. Formal applications are required setting out the reasons for the grant. The policy of the Trustees is to make large single grants rather than many smaller ones.
Financial review
The Trust’s income for the year amounted to £244,626 (2024: £126,509). The increase in income arose primarily from contributions received towards the purchase of a property, which have been classified as restricted funds in accordance with donor stipulations.

Trustees' Report (continued)
Total resources expended on charitable activities during the year were £104,877 (2024: £118,144). This resulted in a surplus for the year of £139,749 (2024: £8,365).
At the year end, the Trust’s total net assets stood at £189,479 (2024: £49,730).
Reserves policy
The Trustees’ policy is to maintain reserves at a level sufficient to enable the Trust to continue its operations and to meet its charitable objectives. In determining the appropriate level of reserves, the Trustees have considered the Trust’s ongoing management and administrative costs, as well as the need to ensure that adequate funds remain available to support its charitable activities.
At 31 March 2025, the balance held as unrestricted funds was £94,215 (2024: £49,730). The Trustees consider this level of reserves to be appropriate for the Trust’s current activities and foreseeable commitments.
Investment policy
The Trust deed authorises the Trustees to make and hold investments using the funds of the charity. The Trustees also have power to hold funds with bankers as necessary. Due to the tenets of the Dawoodi Bohra faith, interest can neither be received nor paid, and as a result, the Trust is part of a network of other connected charities that operate a programme related investment made in the form of interest free loans (Qardan Hasana) to each other and other third parties for the purposes of furthering the objects of the Trust.
Structure, governance and management
The Trust was created on 15 Feb 2021 by the 53rd Dai al - Mutlaq, His Holiness Dr Syedna Aaliqadr Mufaddal Saifuddin (TUS). The Trust Deed to record the creation of the Trust was completed and signed on 20 April 2021 and registered charity status was confirmed by the Charity Commission on 11 May 2021.
Trustees are appointed by the Dai al-Mutlaq for a term of five years or as may be determined by the Dai alMutlaq, and at the expiry date of each such term they retire. At the end of each such term the Dai al-Mutlaq appoints Trustees who may consist of some or all of the retiring Trustees. The Dai al-Mutlaq may appoint additional Trustees at any time during the currency of each term. The person so appointed is a Trustee up to the expiration of the term, so that all Trustees retire simultaneously, provided that at the expiry of the term, the Trustees continue to be Trustees until the Dai al-Mutlaq appoints new Trustees. The Amil Saheb of Milton Keynes is ex-officio a Trustee.
The Trustees named on the legal and administrative information page have served during the year and up to the date of this report.
New Trustees are considered for appointment, taking into account the skill requirements of the Trustee body. The induction process for new Trustees provides them with meetings with the Board of Trustees and with documentation setting out the policies and grant making processes of the Trust, the power and responsibilities of the Trustees and a brief history of the Trust including copy minutes and accounts.
Meetings of the Trustees are held regularly at which they agree the broad strategy and areas of activity for the Trust. The day to day administration of grants and processing and handling of applications prior to their consideration by the Trustees, together with the administration of expenditure on other charitable activities is delegated to the Secretary and the Treasurer. The activities of the restricted funds are managed by subcommittees who report to the Secretary.

Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities
The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations.
The law applicable to charities requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources 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;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable 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 charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, and the provisions of the constitution. The trustees 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.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Independent examiner’s statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

accounting records were not kept in respect of Anjuman-e-Imadi (Milton Keynes) as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

Statement of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the second edition of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts.
Going concern
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
Income and endowments
Expenditure
All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.
Charitable activities
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Governance costs
These include the costs attributable to the charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and trustees meetings and reimbursed expenses.
Taxation
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
Depreciation and amortisation
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:
