## **CHAIRMAN’S EXECUTIVE SUMMARY** 

I am pleased as chairman of the  Muslim Federation in Cleveland to introduce the  annual  report  for  the  year  ending 31[st] December 2024. 

The Centre has been delivering a minimum level of service due to the fact that we have been operating from a rented warehouse.  Services have now resumed and community involvement has been re- established. 

The progress of the new project has faced many difficulties, despite our best efforts, the initial design has been very difficult to implement. Although we have decided to introduce an amendment to the project by removing the basement car park, and allocating parking spaces on the ground floor, the situation with the planners has been such that we needed to maintain the same car parking spaces as initially approved. 

The Committee in consultation with all parties, and after meeting with the Mayor and senior officials, has explored many options such as relocating, acquiring a building and renovating it, or simply downsizing the new project with the aim of establishing a permanent venue for the congregation, and  meeting the planners requirements. 

Anew proposal has been developed and discussion are currently going on with relevant parties to clear the ground for pre application and then full planning application, we aim to complete this by the end of 2025. 

The Mosque as usual continued to play an important role in providing open access to all schools in and out of Middlesbrough facilitating learning and helping schools in RE education. 

Finally I would like to thank all trustees,  members  of the  management committee, staff , users, and external visitors  for  their  commitment  and support in making this place an important and  useful pivot which benefits all sections of the community in general and the Muslim one in particular. 

Yours Faithfully, 

Mr. Khaldon Shokri / Chairman 

Muslim Federation in Cleveland –                                                                           Annual Report 2024

Eid ul Fitr and Eid ul Adha Prayers Quran teaching and open days Religious lectures and seminars Religious/social celebrations 

## **Education & Teaching:** 

Although some sessions did take place occasionally, there were no regular supplementary school activities taking place for this year. 

## **Ramadan Meals:** 

The Mosque provided Ramadan (Iftar) meals throughout the holy month, where 150 meals were served. Most of the beneficiaries were from the local refugee communities, homeless, and vulnerable people. 

## **Eids’ Celebration:** 

There were Eids celebrations to mark the events. Attendance has been satisfactory, children were presented with gifts, and a social meal has been served. 

## **Marriage Registration:** 

The Mosque as a registered charity organisation and officially recognized and licensed marriage building conducted many Islamic and civil marriage ceremonies according to the procedures in place. 

## **Advice:** 

The Organisation as a key player in the community service provision worked in partnership with several voluntary and statutory organisations to support the Muslim community and to give Muslims some sort of assurance, a sense of reference, and to facilitate integration in the wider community. 

Work also extended to supporting and integrating refugees from Syria and Africa mainly Sudan where there was an influx of new arrivals throughout the year.

Page 5 



## **MINISTERS OF RELIGION’S REPORT:** 

Our spiritual and religious services at the Mosque had to be reviewed and scaled down due to the fact that we have limited suitable space. 

Vital services were maintained and a lot of outreach has been done to compensate for the lack of space at our alternative venue. 

Services revolved around the following: 

- Performing the 5 daily prayers 

- Delivering Friday  sermons and conducting the prayers ( Arabic & English) 

- Conducting Funeral prayers when required 

- Delivering Eids sermons and conducting prayers 

- Teaching the noble Quran memorization for children 

- Teaching Islamic education and Arabic language 

- Hospital, home, and prisons visits 

- Religious briefings and presentations 

- Regular seminars with known guest speakers 

- Hosting school visits to present Islam and promote RE 

- Networking with the local authorities to help the community 

- Promoting a good standard of educational and social activities 

We hope that this summary has given you an insight into the many activities around the year to serve Islam and Muslims, and to present the Muslim community in the best manner in relation to representation, involvement and engagement in daily life, and peaceful coexistence in the town and country. 

Yours faithfully, 

The Ministers of religion 

Imam Waleid Allam Imam Mohamed Hasan

believe this approach ensures that good relations are fostered between the organisation and the

volunteer to help in broader community work. Potential trustees are invited to attend trustees,
meetings as observers and are given more details of the charity's aims and activities. With fihe
agreement of existing trustees the individual is then proposed as a new trustee at the subsequent

public benefit and on the advancement of religion for public benefit This ensures that new trustees
are aware of the scope of their responsibilities under the Charits-es Act Initially. new trustees work with
an existing trustee assisting on particular activities and projects run by the charity. After satisfactory
feedback from existing trustees, they are then given the task of leading a particular activity or project
and reporting the prOg￿$S at a twstees, meeting.

charge to the Statement of Financial Activities over the period of the relevant borrowing.

payable and similar charges.

settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

Financial instruments
Classification
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the charity becomes a party to the
contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual
arrangements entered into. An equity instrurnent is any contract that evidences a residual interest in
the assets of the charity after deducting all of its liabilities.
Recognition and measurement
All financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at transaction price (including transaction
costs), ex￿pt for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are
initially measured at fair value (which is normally the transaction price excluding transaction costs),
unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction. If an arrangement constitutes a financing
transaction, the financial asset or financial liability is measured at the present value of the ftjture
payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are only offset in the staternent of financial position when. and only
when there exists a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and the charity intends
either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability sirnultaneously.
Financial assets are derecognised when and only when a) the contractual rights to the cash flows
from the financial asset expire or are settled. b) the charity transfers to another party substantially all
of the risks and rewards of Ownership of the financial asset. or c) the charity, despite having retained
some. but not all, significant risks and rewards of ownership, has transferred control of the asset to
another party.
Financial liabilities are derecognised only when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged,
Can￿lled or expires.
