Object:
a) The prevention or relief of poverty Our organisation is always working in a remote area where charities cannot reach. We are targeting people within this area who cannot find support elsewhere and have little to no household income. We are trying to alleviate poverty by providing food rations including all relevant ingredients to feed the family between 10-30 days. We continue providing rations as well as helping to find employment for the individuals until they can afford their own meals. We are targeting people through local media, local food shops and Imam/scholar of the local mosque. We then investigate through channels such as food shops and shopkeepers in the area who know the people or families who cannot afford the food and buy their food on credit which they are unable to pay back. The shopkeepers then refer them to us. b) The advancement of education We are providing primary education to the local children within our own institution who cannot afford school fees, uniforms and travel expenses. Our main target is those children who are being forced into employment at very young ages due to poor families and therefore miss out on their education. We target the children working in local canteens, car and bike repair shops and local shops. Primary education is provided from a wide range of qualified volunteers from schools and colleges in surrounding areas. We provide scholarships if they want to continue education after graduating from our institution. In addition to education, we also provide sewing skills training for poor young girls in our learning centre as sewing is a big market in Pakistan which will allow them to find a job or work from home, while feeding their families. When they complete their course, we then donate them a sewing machine to get started. We provide food and accommodation to all those studying with us. c) The advancement of religion In our institution we provide Islamic education to poor children by teaching them the Qur'an (holy book or Islam) as well as prayers and other basic Islamic knowledge and principals. Knowledge is provided by Islamic Scholar volunteers. We also have a praying facility for the public. The children need Islamic education because is will teach them right from wrong and culture from civilization. We provide food and accommodation to all those studying with us.

Information on details of charity trustees

From 30 June 2025, OSCR will begin collecting charity trustee information through OSCR Online. Providing this information is a legal requirement for all charities. The names of trustees will be published on the Scottish Charity Register from January 2026 to promote transparency and strengthen public trust in the sector.

Charity accounts and constitution – what information do we publish?

From January 2026, OSCR will begin publishing annual reports and accounts in full online once they are received. This marks a change from the current approach, where OSCR publishes accounts for certain charities, depending on their legal form and income, with personal details redacted.

When a charity publishes its accounts on its website and has supplied us with a link, we have made this available. From late 2017, where the charity is a company, a registered social landlord or is also registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales, a link is provided to the relevant regulator’s website where the accounts are made available. We accept no responsibility for the functionality, accuracy, or content of external websites – if you experience a technical issue with an external link, you should contact the charity directly.

You have the right to the following information under section 23 (1)(a) and (b) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, from the charity direct:

  • a copy of the charity’s latest statement of accounts
  • a copy of the charity’s constitution.

In addition to the above, a charity may also be able to provide you with previous years’ accounts and constitutions, although it is not obliged to do so. You can contact the charity to request this information using the contact details on the charity’s Register entry.
