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.

From 09 March 2026, OSCR is required by law to publish the names of a charity’s trustees as part of its Scottish Charity Register entry. We are also required to publish each charity’s annual report and accounts as received from this date, which may include the names of certain individuals. The only exceptions to publication are where a charity or one of its charity trustees applies for this information to be excluded, and OSCR is satisfied that publishing it would jeopardise the safety or security of a person or premises. If the charity trustee information on a Register entry appears blank, this may mean that an exemption applies or that the charity has not yet provided the required details to OSCR. Supplying this information will become mandatory as part of future annual submissions.

From 30 June 2025, OSCR began 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 early 2026 to promote transparency and strengthen public trust in the sector.

Charity accounts and constitution – what information do we publish?

The Scottish Charity Register contains key information about a charity’s operations and finances. This includes:

the names of a charity’s trustees (exemptions apply)
its annual report and full accounts, if submitted after 9 March 2026
(Accounts submitted prior to 9 March 2026 will be redacted, or may not be published, depending on the charity’s income level or legal form.)

These changes are designed to improve transparency across the charity sector in Scotland.
