## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023** 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Public benefit** 

In managing the charity, the Trustees have considered the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit and also its supplementary public guidance on the advancement of religion for the public benefit. The Trustees always ensure that the activities undertaken are in line with the charitable objectives and aims of the charity. The charity's principal aims are objectives of promoting the Swaminarayan Faith, cultural and social development, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health and well-being, and charitable causes. These play an important part in the lives of a wide spectrum of individuals, helping to advance morals and ethics in the wider society. 

## **Grantmaking** 

As part of its activities, SSSSM London makes grants to organisations whose aim is to help advance the achievements and aims of the charity. The grants may be monetary or may, for example, be the provision of onsite facilities. In making any grants, the Trustees and Management Committee consider: 

1. The number and amount of grants that can be supported having due regard to the charity's own expenditure requirements. 

2. The grant is in accordance with the charitable purpose and objectives of the charity. 

3. Grants are made to support the faith across the world, particularly in the UK and India. 

## **Volunteers** 

SSSSM London has over 150 volunteers. The Trustees and Management Committee have set up an internal framework of departments to ensure various parts of the charity run smoothly.  These departments include kitchen, security, audio/video, photography, communication, finance, Gujarati class and youth activities, cultural activities etc.  Each member of the Management Committee provides a signed Fit and Proper declaration and they all, as well as all activity leads, undergo enhanced DBS checks. 

The Trustees and Management Committee have put in place internal controls to ensure effective risk mitigation. At the start of each financial year budgets are agreed and these are tracked on at least a quarterly basis at Management Committee meetings. Major risks, such a significant drop in donations or investment income, are considered by the Management Committee when agreeing annual budgets and the probability associated with each risk and actions needed to mitigate are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Income and expenditure are reviewed at least quarterly. Internal approval processes are in place where volunteers, department leads and individual Executive Committee representatives for departments have sign off limits on expenditure. Any expenditure over these and any significant costs, such as for special projects or events require the approval of the full Management Committee. 

The Charity has various sources of income, but is primarily reliant on donations from members and visitors. The key risk is the ability to continue to receive donations. The Management Committee considers this to be a low risk as its donors are numerous and continue to be very supportive. The charity expenditure is lower than its income (the charity has no debt) and should donations fall, expenditure can be reduced quickly to manage this risk. The Charity is fortunate to have an alternative source of income from the office rentals in Abji Bapashree House, which over the years has helped in meeting expenditure and furtherance of the charity objectives. The Charity has sufficient reserves as a buffer against any short to medium term reduction. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Principal funding sources** 

Apart from the income generated by Donations, the principal funding sources for the Charity are currently by way of Darshan, Aarti, Thar, Diwali and Ankot. 

Charity's funds are being used in the short term for the running of the Temple activities, together with improving the facilities of the Temple, hence assisting in the furtherance of the Charity and supporting its key objectives.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023** 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Transactions and Financial Position** 

The financial statements are set out on pages 11 to 26. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. As stated in the introduction to this report, the trustees consider the financial performance by the charity during the year to have been satisfactory. 

The Statement of Consolidated Financial Activities showed net expenditure for the year of £356,633 (2022: £433,259) the total reserves at the year end amounted to £26,001,593 (2022: £26,358,226). 

## **Reserves policy** 

The Trustees and Management Committee have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets ('free reserves') held by the charity should be between 9 to 12 months of the resources expended, this equates to approximately £250,000 in general funds: At this Ievel, the Trustees and Management Committee feel that they would be able to continue current activities of the charity. 

Based on the future plans as detailed below, the Trustees and Management committee feel that there are sufficient funds available to meet the anticipated activities in the coming year. 

To reduce the risk of over expenditure, procedures for authorisation of all transactions and projects exist. To further mitigate the risks, the Trustees and Management Committee will carry out periodic reviews of the progress of the objectives stated. 

## **Management of bank balances and interest rates** 

To achieve a better rate of interest during the year bank accounts were opened in the name of Charity with Skipton Building Society, Kingdom Bank, Cambridge and Counties, Redwood Bank, Hampshire Trust Bank and United Trust Bank. This money is held on instant access, notice and fixed term bank accounts. The maximum deposited in any account is £85,000 to benefit from FSCS protection. 

## **FUTURE PLANS** 

The Trustees look forward to further enhancing the social, spiritual and religious aspects of the charity. This will enable members and attendees to continue to strive on the platform established to date. 

The Trustees consider it of paramount importance to ensure that cash flow is managed to enable the day-to-day activities of the Mandir to continue without any risk of curtailment. To this extent, the charity has acquired land in Jubilee Close, which is adjacent to the Mandir complex. The Trustees continue to explore options to secure additional income to further enhance the objects of the charity. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document** 

The charity is controlled by its governing document which is a constitution. It is an unincorporated charity.

**REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF SHREE SWAMINARAYAN SIDHANT SAJIVAN MANDAL (LONDON)** 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of Shree Swaminarayan Sidhant Sajivan Mandal (London) (the 'charity') for the year ended 31 December 2023 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

## In our opinion the financial statements: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 31 December 2023 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, for the year then ended; 

- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and 

- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011. 

## **Basis for opinion** 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report.  We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.  We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. 

## **Other information** 

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon. 

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.  We have nothing to report in this regard. 

## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- the information given in the Report of the Trustees is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or 

- sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or 

- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. 

Page 8 



**REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF SHREE SWAMINARAYAN SIDHANT SAJIVAN MANDAL (LONDON)** 

## **Responsibilities of trustees** 

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements which give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

## **Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** 

We have been appointed as auditors under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder. 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: 

- Identified applicable laws and regulations through discussions with management, commercial knowledge, and sector experience. 

- Obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks, including Charities Act 2011, Charity SORP, 

- - and UK financial reporting standards issued by the Financial Reporting Council, as well as those impacting financial statement amounts, disclosures, health and safety, employee matters, and bribery and corruption. 

- - Assessed compliance by making inquiries, inspecting correspondence, and maintaining vigilance for noncompliance. 

- Communicated identified laws and regulations within the audit team and remained alert to instances of noncompliance. 

- - Assessed the susceptibility of financial statements to material misstatement, including fraud, by inquiring about fraud susceptibility, knowledge of actual/suspected/alleged fraud, and evaluating internal controls. 

- Addressed the risk of fraud and management bias through analytical procedures, testing journal entries, assessing accounting estimates for potential bias, and investigating significant/unusual transactions. 

- Designed procedures to address the risk of irregularities and non-compliance, including verifying financial statement disclosures, reading governance meeting minutes, inquiring about litigation/claims, and reviewing correspondence with relevant authorities. 

- Inquired about known instances or suspicions of non-compliance with laws and regulations. 

- Recognised limitations in detecting non-compliance unrelated to financial statements and higher risk in detecting fraud due to deliberate concealment or collusion. 

There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. 

Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.

**SHREE SWAMINARAYAN SIDHANT SAJIVAN MANDAL (LONDON) NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the consolidated financial statements** 

The consolidated financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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 1 January 2015)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with the exception of investments which are included at market value. 

The consolidated financial statements  have  been  prepared  under  the  historical  cost  convention,  with  the exception of investments which are included at market value, and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008). The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities' published in March 2005 and applicable accounting standards. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, 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 accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

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. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

Plant & machinery -  at varying rates on cost Fixtures and fittings -  at varying rates on cost 

## **Stocks** 

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities. 

## **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.
