Achievement and performance
Significant activities and achievements against objectives
Charitable activities
During this accounting year ending 30 November 2025, the trustees consider that, like in the previous years, the charity has performed well. We thank and praise Allah for this and ask Him to accept our humble efforts, Ameen.
As in previous years, several orphanages, religious and secular schools, mosques, hospitals, and other charitable institutions have continued to benefit financially from our charity. Widows, refugees, poor and desolate people have also been supported financially, directly and through other charitable organisations.
Financial review
In this year ending on 30 November 2025, we received £143,328 (2024: £78,974) donations from the general public and the charity spent £116,873 (2024: £88,716) for various projects and charity activities. The support costs were £35,157 (2024: £9,742) in this year.
Reserves policy
As at the year ending 30 November 2025, -£2,811 (2025: £4,040) cash deficit is being carried forward to the new accounting period. The trustees consider that, given the nature of our work; a reasonable cash reserve should be always maintained to allow us to respond quickly to emergencies where immediate relief is needed.
Plans for future periods
The trustees have resolved to continue the current activities as the charity keeps receiving several appeals and requests for financial assistance from Orphanages, Mosques, Religious & Secular Schools, Hospitals and Relief Agencies.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF MERCY TO THE WORLD
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Mercy to the World for the year ended 30 November 2025.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act
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 which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
-
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
-
the accounts did not comply with the applicable 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.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

1.1 Accounting convention
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 governing document, the Charities Act 2011, FRS102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Charities SORP "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 (FRS102)". This is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
- 1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity 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 financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for the use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
1.4 Income
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after the performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably and it is probable that the income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donations, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Income from restricted grant is recognised when charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and gifts and is included in full in the statement of financial activities when receivable. Grants where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.
Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified. The value of services provided by volunteers has been included. Gifts donated for resale are included as incoming resources within activities for generating funds when they are sold.

1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer the economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs that contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset's use.
Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objectives of the charity and include project management. Support costs include governance costs. Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity.
All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.
Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.
1.6 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 theory useful lives on the following bases:
Computers 25% per annum straight line basis
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 the statement of financial activities.
1.7 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible 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).
1.8 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.
1.9 Financial instruments
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the balance sheet when the entity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

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.
Derocognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
1.10 Taxation
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
1.11 Employee benefits
