The Europe Trust liaises very closely with the federation of Islamic Organisations in Europe (FIOE) and
other charities and organisations with similar objects of community development in Europe.
Charity
The company is a Registered Charity number 1103290

Objects and Policies


The objects of the charity are:

The report of the trustees for the year ended 31 December 2006
3) The promotion of any charitable purpose amongst Muslims in Europe and elsewhere and in particular
the relief of poverty, the advancement of education and the relief and prevention of suffering caused by
mental health, social and or economic circumstances, or by emotional, personal or family problems by
the provision of a counselling service or other services as appropriate.

4) the establishment of religious, educational, social and recreational institutions by such means as are
exclusively charitable.
The policies to achieve these objects are to rely on revenues either by donations or creating its income
through investment and expanding its property portfolio. Donations have been very limited and scarce
and that is the reason the Charity is looking to develope its property portfolio which should increase in
value so that the capital gain will ensure a good financial base to fund the above objects in the future.

Organisation of the Charity


The Charity has ten trustees/directors and three advisors.
The Board meets in a general annual meeting once a year.

A committee of trustees meets between the annual meetings to ensure implementation of decisions and
follow up up. The committee also convenes as a grant committee to consider applications for grants.
The committee meets three times a year or as needed,
The Chief Executive carries forward the decisions, implements them and makes suggestions to the
chairman and the committee.

The contribution of volunteers


The Charity does use volunteers on a limited scale. In 2006 four volunteers participated in assisting in
running of a seminar "Awqaf In Europe" organized by the charity.
Reserves
The trust maintains a minimum

of reserves to meet obligations in excess of two months.

Nature of the Governing Document and constitution of the charity


The charity being a company limited by guarantee is governed by the Articles of Association of the
Company with the objects of the company contained in the Memorandum of Association. The Articles of
Association include matters as Election of Members, appointment/removal/disqualification of Trustees

Charity Law and the Companies Acts require the Board to prepare financial statements for each

Board is required to :- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is
inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of
recommended practice have been followed , subject to any material
departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
The trustees are also responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with
reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which are sufficient to show
and explain the charity's transactions and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply
with the Companies Act 1985. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and
hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Independent Auditors' Report


Independent auditors' report
to the members of Europe Trust
We have audited the financial statements of Europe Trust (Company Limited by Guarantee) for the
year ended 31 December 2006 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance
Sheet and the related notes and the Schedule to the Statement of Financial Activities as set out on
pages 9 to 23. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial
Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities, effective January 2007, and in accordance the
requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting issued by
the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales, effective April 2005, under the historical cost
convention and in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the notes to the financial
statements.

Respective responsibilities of trustees as directors and of the auditors


As described in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities on page 5 the charity's trustees are
responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and
United Kingdom Accounting Standards, (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice)

Our responsibility is to audit the financial statements in accordance with relevant legal and
regulatory requirements and International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland).
We report to you our opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view and are
properly prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 1985.
We also report to you if, in our opinion, the Report of the Trustees is consistent with the financial
statements, if the company has not kept proper accounting records, if we have not received all the
information and explanations we require for our audit, or if information specified by law regarding
trustees' remuneration and transactions with the company is not disclosed.
We read the Report of the Trustees and consider the implications for our report if we become aware
of any apparent misstatements within it.

Basis of Audit Opinion


We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland)
issued by the Auditing Practices Board and in accordance with the Practice Note ' The Audit of
Charities in the United Kingdom', revised in April 2002. An audit includes examination, on a test
basis, of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. It also
includes an assessment of the significant estimates and judgements made by the trustees in the
preparation of the financial statements, and of whether the accounting policies are appropriate to
the charity's circumstances, consistently applied and adequately disclosed.
We planned and performed our audit so as to obtain all the information and explanations which we
considered necessary in order to provide us with sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance
that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or other
irregularity or error. In forming our opinion we also evaluated the overall adequacy of the
presentation of information in the financial statements.
Opinion
In our opinion the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as
at 31 December 2006 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its
income and expenditure, for the year then ended and have been properly prepared in accordance
with the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting
issued by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales.

Accounting policies

Basis of preparation of the accounts


The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting
Standard for Smaller Entities (FRSSE), effective January 2007, and all other applicable
accounting standards, as modified by the 2005 Revision of the Statement of Recommended
Practice for Accounting and Reporting issued by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales,
effective April 2005. The accounts have been drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the
Charities Act and the Companies Act.
In so far as the Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting issued by the
Charity Commissioners for England & Wales, effective April 2005 requires compliance with
specific Financial Reporting Standards other than the FRSSE then the specific Financial
Reporting Standards have been followed where their requirements differ from those of the
FRSSE.

Advantage has been taken of paragraph 3(3) of Schedule 4 of the Companies Act 1985 to allow
the format of the financial statements to be adapted to reflect the special nature of the company's
operation.
The company has taken advantage of the exemption in Financial Reporting Standard No 1 from
the requirement to produce a cash flow statement.
The particular accounting policies adopted are set out below.

Accounting convention
The financial statements are prepared, on a going concern basis, under the historical cost
convention as modified by the revaluation of freehold land and buildings and fixed asset
investments.

Incoming Resources
Incoming resources are accounted for on a receivable basis deferred as described below where
appropriate. Rental income is recognised when due.
Investment Income
Ownership of Properties
Where the charity is not the sole owner of a property, only the percentage of the charity's
ownership is included in the assets of the charity.
Donations of Property
The Charity has been the beneficery of significant values of land and buildings. These donations
have been included in the Balance Sheet of the charity at the most recent valuation.
Compliance with Statement of Standard Accounting Practice 19
Charities are exempt from the full provisions of SSAP19. However, the trusteees have adopted a
policy that investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit
arising from changes in market value is transferred to a revaluation reserve.

Europe Trust
Notes to the Accounts

for the year ended 31 December 2006


Deferred income
In accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting
(effective April 2005) issued by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales grants received
in advance and specified by the donor as relating to specific accounting periods or alternatively
which are subject to conditions which are still to be met, and which are outside the control of the
charity or where it is uncertain whether the conditions can or will be met, are deferred on an
accruals basis to the period to which they relate. Such deferrals are shown in the notes to the
accounts and the sums involved are shown as creditors in the accounts.

Recognition of liabilities
Liabilities are recognised on the accruals basis in accordance with normal accounting principles,
modified where necessary in accordance with the guidance given in the Statement of
Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting (effective April 2005) issued by the Charity
Commissioners for England & Wales .

Resources Expended

The policy for including items within costs of generating funds, charitable activities and
governance costs is:Costs of generating funds
The direct costs attributable to fundraising.
Charitable activities
The costs associated with the letting of investment owen by the charity properties.
Governance costs
Governance costs shall include all expenditure directly related to the administration of the charity
including expenditure incurred in the management of the charity's assets, organisational
administration and compliance with charitable and statutory requirements.

Allocation of costs within types of resources expended


Administration expenditure includes all expenditure not directly related to charitable activity. In
respect of certain items of expenditure it is a matter of judgement as to whether such items are
direct charitable expenditure or are administrative, and the trustees have applied what they
consider to be reasonable judgements in appportioning such costs.
The bases of the judgements used were :
Wages and salaries are apportioned equally between Charitable Activities and Governance costs
together with any associated social security costs.

Unrealised and realised gains


Realised gains and losses are included in the accounts on the date at which a contractual
obligation is entered into.
Unrealised gains and losses are computed by reference to the market value of the investments at
the balance sheet date, compared to the brought forward cost or valuation, and gains and losses
arising on similar categories of investments are netted off.

Investments held by the charity


The company's investments at the balance sheet date in the share capital of companies include
the following:Europe Trust Property Enterprises Limited

Europe Trust
Notes to the Accounts
for the year ended 31 December 2006
Fixed assets and depreciation
All tangible fixed assets, except freehold land and buildings, are stated at cost less depreciation.
Freehold land and buildings are stated at a valuation arrived at by a professionally qualified firm of
valuers, who valued the assets on the basis of open market value in current use.
Items of less than 100 are not capitalised.

Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets (less their
estimated residual value ) over their estimated useful economic life.
Equipment 25% on cost.

Capital grants
The board of trustees consider that, in order to comply with the Statement of Recommended
Practice for Accounting and Reporting issued by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales
(effective October 2005), gifts of tangible fixed assets or grants of a capital nature given for
specific purposes and fully utilised in the furtherance of the objects of the charity should be
credited to the relevant fixed asset fund after the sums have been properly expended on the
restricted purpose. The related asset is shown in the balance sheet at the full cost of acquisition
or subsequent revaluation.
If the related assets are subject to restrictions by the grant making organisation on their use and
disposal, then these restrictions are noted in the fixed asset section of these accounts. In such
circumstances, the fixed asset fund created is treated as a restricted fixed asset fund. As the
related assets are depreciated, then a transfer is made from restricted fixed asset funds to
unrestricted revenue reserves to reflect the dimunition in the asset subject to the restriction.

If the related assets are not subject to restrictions by the grant making organisation on their use
and disposal, then the fixed asset fund created is treated as a designated fixed asset fund. As the
related assets are depreciated, then a transfer is made from designated fixed asset funds to
unrestricted revenue reserves to reflect the dimunition in the asset.
Any residual liability to the donor arising from, for example, the asset's future sale, is disclosed as
a contingent liability unless the event that would trigger repayment of the grant becomes probable
in which case a liability for repayment is recognised
In so far as this policy relates to Government grants and to the extent that it may be a departure
from the Statement of Standard Accounting Practice Number 4, such departure is justified on the
basis that it is in order to comply with the Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting
and Reporting (effective April 2005) issued by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales.
Taxation
As a registered charity, the company is exempt from income and corporation tax to the extent that
its income and gains are applicable to charitable purposes only. Value Added Tax is not
recoverable by the company, and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of
Financial Activities

13

Europe Trust
Notes to the Accounts

for the year ended 31 December 2006


Finance and operating leases
Rentals payable in respect of operating leases where substantially all the benefits and risks of
ownership remain with the lessor are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities as incurred.
Finance leases are accounted for in accordance with the requirements of the Financial Reporting
Standard for Smaller Entities (FRSSE), effective January 2005.

Funds structure policy


The charity maintains a general unrestricted fund which represents funds which are expendable
at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the objects of the charity. Such funds may be
held in order to finance both working capital and capital investment.
Restricted funds have been provided to the charity for particular purposes, and it is the policy of
the board of trustees to carefully the monitor the application of those funds in accordance with the
restrictions placed upon them.
A fixed asset fund is maintained which represents the written down value of tangible fixed assets,
and is divided into a restricted fixed asset fund representing the written down value of those
assets subject to restrictions, with the balance being in a designated fund representing the written
down value of those assets free of restrictions. The detailed operation of these funds is described
under the accounting policy' Capital grants'

There is no formal policy of transfer between funds or on the allocation of funds to designated
funds, other than that described above.
Any other proposed transfer between funds would be considered on the particular circumstances.

Accounting for Legacies


No legacies have been left to the charity and until such time as a legacy is made the trustee
reserve the right to formulate a reserve policy.

Recognition of foreign exchange gains and losses


This has arisen due to the translation of euro transactions into sterling at an average rate of $1 to
the 0.67330.
2

Winding up or dissolution of the charity


If upon winding up or dissolution of the charity there remain any assets, after the satisfaction of all
debts and liabilities, the assets represented by the accumulated fund shall be transferred to some
other charitable body or bodies having similar objects to the charity.
