REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MAY 2024


The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 May 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The charity has been set up to 1) promote and advance the study and practice of Kriya Yoga to improve and uplift the spiritual, mental and physical well-being of sincere seekers of all faiths and beliefs who are thirsting for spiritual knowledge and 2) to provide relief to those who are sick or suffering.

Significant activities
To date we have focussed our efforts on helping the children of Hariharananda Balashram school in the Indian state of Odisha See link: hariharanandabalashram. The residential school was founded in 2004 with the support of Paramahamsa Prajnanananda and Prajnana Mission to help disadvantaged children. The school named after the great master Paramahamsa Hariharananda now provides for 560 children who receive quality care and education.

Each year forty children aged 4 to 5 from poor backgrounds are admitted. Balashram educates and nurtures students for higher studies and offers vocational and life skills training so that graduates are well-equipped to achieve their potential and to live happy and fulfilled lives.

Any profits made from our Kriya Yoga initiation programmes, retreats and other occasional events are sent to Prajnana Mission who distribute funds to Balashram School and Prajnana Mission Health Centres.

Volunteers
Kriya Yoga UK benefits from the invaluable contribution of both regular and ad-hoc volunteers, all of whom are Kriyavans. These volunteers are not remunerated and assist in a variety of roles, encompassing both administrative tasks and core activities vital to the charity's operations. As Kriya Yoga UK continues to grow, there will be an increasing need for more volunteers to support our expanding work.

Regular volunteers are involved in a range of activities, including but not limited to:

1. Organising and facilitating regular meditation sessions in London and regionally.
2. Editing and producing the monthly newsletter.
3. Maintaining and updating the Kriyavan database.
4. Managing and posting content on our social media platforms.
5. Assisting at Kriya Yoga UK programmes and events.

At this time, we are unable to quantify the exact time commitment of volunteers or assign an indicative monetary value to their contribution, as these vary depending on individual involvement and specific tasks. However, their collective support plays a crucial role in furthering the charity's mission and activities.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF
KRIYA YOGA UK

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Kriya Yoga UK ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 May 2024.

Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

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

Independent examiner's statement
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:

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
4. the accounts 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 accounts 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 accounts to be reached.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The trustees are of the opinion that the charity will receive incoming funds and structure its costs over the next 12 month. They are therefore of the opinion that the charity is a going concern.

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.

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



Computer Equipment 25% reducing balance

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

Taxation
