providedtothegroupsandindividualsbeinghelped.SuchreviewsenabletheTrusteestobesatisfiedthatthevariousactivities remain
focussedon the statedpurposesof the Charity.Due note has been taken of the CharityCommission'sgeneralguidanceon public benefit
in these reviews and in planning future activities.
Charitable activities
During the year, the charity successfully delivered a wide range of activities for the local Muslim community:
-
Weekly Friday prayers, open to the public.
-
Taraweeh prayers during the month of Ramadan.
-
Eid prayers held in Belmont for the wider community.
-
The purchase of a freehold property in Belmont to serve as a future community centre, providing a permanent base for prayer,
-
education, and welfare activities.
Financial review
The charity generated a surplus during the year. Total income amounted to £1,038,887, primarily from individual donations.
Expenditure on charitable activities was £94,267, resulting in net income of £944,620.
At the year end, total funds stood at £1,148,621, of which all were unrestricted.
This includes the freehold property purchase of £920,158 for the Belmont site.
The trustees confirm that no trustee received remuneration during the year
.
Reserves policy
Thetrusteeshaveconsideredthelevelofreservesthatthecharityshouldholdinordertoensurefinancialstabilityandtheability to
continue to meet its charitable objectives.
The trusteeshaveagreedto maintainunrestrictedreservesequivalentto threeto six monthsof regularoperatingexpenditure (estimated
between £25,000 and £50,000).
At 31 December 2024, the charity held unrestricted reserves of £1,155,180, significantly above the target level.
This reflects the acquisition of long-term property assets and funds held for future community development.

- Progress the conversion of the Belmont property into a community centre, providing prayer facilities, classrooms, and welfare services.
