Statement of directors' responsibilities The directors are responsible for preparing the report and accounts in accordance with applicable law and regulations. Company law requires the directors to prepare accounts for each financial year. Under that law, the directors have elected to prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the situation of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these accounts, the directors are required to: select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 31 March 2026

  • 1. Accounting policies

    Basis of measurement and preparation

    These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A (Small Entities) of Financial Reporting Standard 102

    Turnover policy

    Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when goods have been delivered to customers such that risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to them. Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs.

    Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

    Tangible assets are included at cost less depreciation and impairment. Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets over their estimated useful lives: Computer equipment 10% reducing balance basis

    Other accounting policies

    Foreign exchange Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating profit. Leased assets Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged against profit on a straight line basis over the lease term. Assets held under finance leases and hire purchase contracts are capitalised and depreciated over their useful lives. The corresponding lease or hire purchase obligation is treated in the balance sheet as a liability. The interest element of rental obligations is charged to the profit and loss account over the period of the lease at a constant proportion of the outstanding balance of capital repayments. Financial instruments Basic financial instruments are recognised at amortised cost, except for investments in non-convertible preference and non-puttable ordinary shares which are measured at fair value, with changes recognised in profit or loss. Derivative financial instruments are initially recorded at cost and thereafter at fair value with changes recognised in profit or loss.

Company Number: 12512573 (England and Wales)

Year Ending: 31 March 2026

Company activities and impact

The MRU Social Community consist of all voluntary organisations operating within the MRU Community in the UK. In our second annual report, we indicated that supporting the voluntary sector is at the heart of our agenda and at the top of our priority list. We also stated that our aim was to provide organisations within the voluntary sector with tailored support that enable them to grow and continue delivering the much-needed services that continue to make deeper and wider impact on the health, social, and economic wellbeing of our beneficiaries. In achieving this aim, in 2023, we focused our attention on the establishment and continuou development of the MRU Community Law Centre but also continued working with our partner charities to build a stronger and more interconnected MRU Community. As a result of the tremendous progress, we have made in developing the MRU Social Community, we have been able to establish strong partnerships with sister organisations that are delivering very important projects in the health and social care sector, in the entertainment sector, and in the cultural promotion sector. These partnerships and networks have begun sowing the seeds of not only a strong and connected community, but also innovative collaborative partnen;hips between the voluntary sector and the business sector. In the medium and long-term, the hope is that the interlink between the voluntary and business sectors will address the major problems affecting the voluntary organisations within the partnerships we are establishing, including funding. We foresee the creation of mutual beneficial partnerships between the voluntary and business sectors where all parties including the beneficiaries and bystanders will all win. We will continue to nurture and develop this innovative link between the voluntary and business sectors over the coming years through continuous engagement and working collaboratively in projects capable of strengthening the relationships between these two major sectors.

Consultation with stakeholders

The MRU Community consists of communities from Sierra Leone, Guinea, Liberia, Ivory Coast, Gambia, Guinea-Bissau, Mali, Mauritania, and Senegal living in the UK. We meet once evety month and agree on projects to be designed and implemented for the year and also update each other on ongoing projects. We provide regular monthly updates through monthly newsletters widdy circulated across the community.
