## **TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTOR'S REPORT) (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**_ 

## **Achievements and performance** 

The year 2023/24 was a highly productive and successful year for the Central Mosque of Brent. 

The year included becoming winners of the KAVS in November 2023 , Beacon Award, NWL Health and Inequality Awards 2023 and the Foto for Climate Change Awards for our voluntary work for the community in relation to Health and community support for the entire local community. 

The Central Mosque of Brent is the largest purpose built Mosque in North West London in addition to all the related activities of a place of worship we run a Surplus Food Market thrice weekly, a weekly community Cafe (which provides a free hot meal, hot drink and a desert to everyone) alongside facilities for having a shower and computer and WIFI facilities. We also provide free gym and sewing classes. 

The Central Mosque of Brent has been committed to providing excellent services to the community for many years but also shown great leadership during then pandemic and now continuing to look after all the local community through the current cost of living and energy crisis. It has engaged in multiple community based projects including the largest Covid 19 vaccination Programme in the UK (delivering over 14 000 doses) from a Mosque as well as thrice weekly regular Surplus food Market and most recently the WG Community Cafe. 

In May 2023 we opened the Health and Medical Education Centre located next to the mosque and Our Health and Medical Education Centre now regularity provides facilities for regular Health checks including blood glucose, Blood pressure, pulse, oxygen saturation, BMI as well as weight. Furthermore we alongside CPL are continuing with the National Covid 19 Booster campaign (spring). This is alongside regular CPR training, a series of lectures and seminars and workshops increasing Cancer awareness through a grant from NWL NHS amongst the local community the rates of which are increasing more that the national average as well as a Measles awareness campaign. 

The Central Mosque of Brent is located in the south of the London Borough of Brent which is amongst the lowest 10th percentile in measurable indicators such as educational attainment, poverty, deaths from Covid 19 and employment. It is the second most cultural diverse Borough within the country with over 100 different languages being spoken and recently been a magnet for migrants, asylum seekers and immigrants. 

With the cost of living crisis which has started to make a major impact to our local community with even those who are working struggling to make ends meet. 

We wanted to engage the whole community and paired up the London Community Kitchen, Co-op Food stores, Gales Bakeries, local businesses and individual donations and offer free fruit and vegetable market, bread, rice etc to everyone who would like to have some free extra sustenance. The project started on Friday 6th October 2022 and currently runs thrice weekly on Monday and Wednesday mornings and Friday afternoons. We offer this service to everyone and have a no questions policy. 

It engages the whole community so our volunteers for the project were from across the whole community from all religious beliefs, and those with none, colour, creed and sexual orientation. Everybody is benefitting from this project and we are currently supporting between 250-300 households each session (14000-15000 households per annum) thereby having a major impact on the local community. 

The central mosque of brent is amongst the most active mosques in the country showing great leadership and providing services health related, social and community based services. They have shown innovative ways to enhance community engagement and integration. 

From November 2023 we launched the WG Community Cafe which is run by our volunteers and provides a free hot meal with a hot drink every Friday afternoon. We also provide a hot shower facility and computers and internet facilities as well as a comfortable and warm seating area for members of the whole community to join in and utilise. We further aim to start regular computer and IT educational classes for adults and children. 

Finally we have continued to provide free ladies gym and sewing classes which we are looking to expand. 

The following year will see us look to start work on our Education facility and Library as well as the Roof top Gardens.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT** 

## **TO THE TRUSTEES OF CENTRAL MOSQUE OF BRENT CHARITY** 

I report to the  Trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Central Mosque of Brent Charity (the charity) for the year ended 31 March 2024. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the Trustees of the charity (and also its directors for the purposes of company law), you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 

Having satisfied myself that the financial statements of the charity are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act 2011. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since the charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000, the independent examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of ICAEW, which is one of the listed bodies. 

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

- 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 386 of the Companies Act 2006. 

- 2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 other than any requirement that the financial statements give a true and fair view, which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

- 4 the financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

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 financial statements to be reached.

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Charity information** 

Central Mosque of Brent Charity is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Station Parade, Lennon Road, Willesden Green, London, NW2 4PU. 

## **1.1 Accounting convention** 

The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

The entire donation collected is unrestricted. To reflect this the reserve has been transferred to unrestricted reserve. 

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, [modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value]. 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 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. 

Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity. 

## **1.4 Income** 

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received. 

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, 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. 

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset. 

## **1.5 Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised when resources are expended. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. 

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both the direct pay and non-pay costs and support costs relating to those activities.

## **CENTRAL MOSQUE OF BRENT CHARITY** 

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

**(Continued)** 

Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include its audit fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity including trustee expenses. 

## **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 their useful lives on the following bases: 

Land and buildings 60% of the value over 100 years Fixtures, fittings & equipment 20% Reducing balance method Computers 20% Reducing balance method Motor vehicles 20% Reducing balance method 

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 Investment property** 

This represents the expenses associated with a new construction project, specifically a car park, intended for investment purposes. 

## **1.8 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). 

## **1.9 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. 

## **1.10 Financial instruments** 

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. 

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

## _**Basic financial assets**_ 

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

**(Continued)** 

## _**Basic financial liabilities**_ 

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. 

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. 

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. 

## _**Derecognition of financial liabilities**_ 

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled. 

## **1.11 Employee benefits** 

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received. 

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits. 

## **1.12 Retirement benefits** 

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due. 

## **2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements** 

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
