BANGLADESH ISLAMIC CENTRE ST ALBANS

Management Committee Summary

This is the second report since the appointment of trustees by the members of the Centre on 22[nd] September 2019. This report contains the Centre's financial activities starting from 1[st] January 2021 to 31[st] December 2021. This was prepared for submission to the Charity Commission.

Due to the conflict and unforeseen during the COVID-19 national closer of all religious premises the custodian trustees and their supporters had forcefully taken control of the charity since 1[st] July 2020 and kept all elected trustees out from any activities in that premises.

With the suggestion from Charity Commission and on recommendation from Hertfordshire Constabulary and local authority the board of trustees have tried all possible revenue for mediation but failed.

On recommendation from the High Court the board of trustees had no other choice to resolve this issue rather than legal proceeding.

As the charity has been running by the interim management during 2021.

This account is submitted with base of information provided by the interim management. Once everything has been scrutinized we will update information to the Charity Commission accordingly.

JAZAKALLAHU KHAIRAN FOR YOUR DONATIONS AND SUPPORT.

Notes to financial statements

1. Accounting policies

(a) Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP 2005) issued in 2005 and applicable UK Accounting Standards and the Charities Act 1993.

Unrestricted income funds comprise those funds which the trustees are free to use for any purpose in furtherance of the charitable objects. Unrestricted funds include designated funds where the trustees, at their discretion, have set aside resources for a specific purpose.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by the donor or the terms of a specific appeal at any time and under the terms for public collection of Zakat in accordance with the teachings of Islam.

All incoming resources are recognised once the charity has entitlement to the resources, it is certain that the resources will be received and the monetary value of incoming resources can be measured with sufficient reliability. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:

Voluntary income is received by way of donations at Friday prayers and grants, 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.

Incoming resources from grants, where there are performances or services deliverables required by the terms of the grant, are accounted for as the charity earns the right to payment through its performance. Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified. The value of services provided are in the nature of professional services where a fee would otherwise be charged, in which the donated service is valued at their chargeable rate. Investment income is included when receivable. Incoming resources from charitable trading activity is accounted for when earned.

Liabilities are recognized as resources expended as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to the expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category.

(e) Irrecoverable VAT
