HOUNSLOW JAMIA MASJID AND ISLAMIC CENTRE
Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity's unrestricted funds are in deficit by £104,703, a position the auditor notes would worsen to £254,702 if a £150,000 litigation liability were properly recognized. The auditor has issued a qualified opinion and identified a material uncertainty regarding the charity's ability to continue as a going concern, citing reliance on future income and the successful outsourcing of a loss-making school. Additionally, the charity has significant outstanding tax liabilities of £267,814 payable to HM Revenue & Customs.
