TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2024
The trustees present their report and the consolidated financial statements of the charity for the year ended 5 April 2024.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and “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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016).
Objectives and activities
The aims and objectives of this trust in accordance with the law relating to charities are to support:
-
Jewish organisations within the U.K. and worldwide, in particular:
-
a. Those helping people suffering hardships, including racial prejudice.
-
b. Those involved in the protection and empowerment of women.
-
Jewish and other charities:
-
a. Working in the field of education
-
b. Working in the field of ecology
-
c. Doing lifesaving work
At their bi-annual meetings the Trustees review the activities and objectives of their proposed donees, including their financial position and accounts. Donees of substantial funds are expected to provide written reports or to make presentations for their requests so that these are fully considered and evaluated. Follow up reports are requested to review how projects are progressing. Visits are also made to donees when possible so as to have a more detailed understanding of their activities and to monitor progress of projects which the Trustees have supported. In carrying out these activities the Trustees are mindful of their obligations that payments made are for charitable purposes as defined by the Act and the Commission's public benefit guidance. The Charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.
Achievements and performance
The largest donations made during the year was £819,316 to Shalem College. The total amount donated by the Trust during the year was £1,129,344 (2023: £1,522,725). The reduction in the amount donated from 2023 is due to the trustees meeting to consider donations being delayed until after April 2024. Income arose from investments.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2024
Financial review
The reserves of the Trust are split between the endowment fund and the general unrestricted fund.
The trustees have the power to invest in such stocks, shares, investments and property as they see fit. In general, the objective is to achieve a return at least equal to inflation and to maintain the capital values as adjusted for inflation. Investment income is included in the general fund and is available for distribution by the trustees at the twice yearly meeting. Any investment income not distributed remains in the general unrestricted fund and is available for distribution at subsequent trustees' meetings.
Capital gains, both realised and unrealised are retained in the capital fund and reinvested. The trustees can amend this policy by a unanimous decision.
It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained so as to enable it to provide funding for emergency appeals as and when required. The amount reserved is reviewed at each trustees' meeting after considering requests made by organisations and other issues which may affect the level to be set aside. The trustees consider that such a reserve will enable them to make donations if such an emergency arises. Based on income generated from the endowment fund the trustees' believe they will be able to continue the charity’s current activities while setting aside funds for contingencies.
Risk management
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
The principal risk faced by the Charity lies in the performance of its investments. The trustees consider that the variability of investment returns and currency changes on the permanent endowment to constitute the Charity's major financial risks. Both risks are mitigated by retaining experienced and expert investment managers and having a diversified investment portfolio.
Future plans
The Trust has no plans to change its current objectives and activities and intends to continue making donations as long as income is available.
Structure, governance and management
The Trust is constituted under a Trust Deed dated 18th August 1992.
Trustees are selected and appointed by invitation from the current trustees. A trustee can retire at any time they see fit.
This Trust has been funded up to the present time by the founding family.
In the opinion of the trustees, the charity is not exposed to any significant risks other than the vicissitudes of the Stock Markets.

Structure, governance and management (continued)
The trustees who served during the year were: Mr L Frenkel Mr I Freeman Ms S J Clark Ms M Sacks Dr M Burstow Dr D Polisar Mrs A M Frenkel Mr B Heilpern (resigned 12 May 2024)
The Charity has no staff and operates by trustee meetings both formal and informal.
Grant making policies
Trustees meet at least twice a year to assess grant applications and to review and approve the making of additional and new donations. The trustees prefer to provide support to organisations where the grants and donations can make a significant impact on the activities of that charity or organisation. On occasions a registered charity, their trustees or staff, are invited to attend and review and discuss the activities of their organisation. Trustees also visit the offices of some charities.
Statement of Trustees' responsibilities
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the accounts in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that year.
In preparing these accounts, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the accounts; and
-
prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.

THE JOE & ROSA FRENKEL CHARITABLE TRUST
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE JOE & ROSA FRENKEL CHARITABLE TRUST
Opinion
We have audited the group and charity financial statements of The Joe & Rosa Frenkel Charitable Trust (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 5 April 2024 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities, the Consolidated and Company Balance Sheet, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and the notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion, the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the group’s and charity’s affairs as at 5 April 2024 and of the group’s and charity’s incoming resources and application of resources, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the accounts section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the accounts in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where:
-
the Trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the accounts is not appropriate; or
-
the trustees have not disclosed in the accounts any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the charity’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the accounts are authorised for issue.
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the accounts and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the accounts does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the accounts or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the accounts or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.

THE JOE & ROSA FRENKEL CHARITABLE TRUST
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE JOE & ROSA FRENKEL CHARITABLE TRUST
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the Trustees'
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
-
the accounts are not in agreement with the accounting records; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditors under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including Fraud
We identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and then design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, including obtaining audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
In identifying and addressing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following:
-
We obtained an understanding of laws and regulations that affect the charity, focusing on those that had a direct effect on the financial statements or that had a fundamental effect on its operations. Key laws and regulations that we identified included the UK Charities Act, tax legislation and safe-guarding.
-
We enquired of the trustees, reviewed the Charity Commission website, correspondence with HMRC and reviewed notes of trustees meetings for evidence of non-compliance with relevant laws and regulations. We also reviewed controls the trustees have in place to ensure compliance.
-
We gained an understanding of the controls that the trustees have in place to prevent and detect fraud. We enquired of the trustees about any incidences of fraud that had taken place during the accounting period.
-6-
THE JOE & ROSA FRENKEL CHARITABLE TRUST
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE JOE & ROSA FRENKEL CHARITABLE TRUST
-
The risk of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud was discussed within the audit team and tests were planned and performed to address these risks. We identified the potential for fraud in the following areas: revenue recognition, related parties outside normal course of business, management override, misappropriation of cash and other assets.
-
We reviewed financial statements disclosures and tested to supporting documentation to assess compliance with relevant laws and regulations discussed above.
-
We enquired of the trustees and third-party advisors about actual and potential litigation and claims.
-
We performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that might indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud.
-
In addressing the risk of fraud due to management override of internal controls we tested the appropriateness of journal entries and assessed whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates were indicative of a potential bias.
Due to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. For example, as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of non-detection of irregularities, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. We are not responsible for preventing fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations and cannot be expected to detect all fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.
Other matters which we are required to address
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared financial statements in accordance with "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) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn.
This has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2024
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
The Joe & Rosa Frenkel Charitable Trust is constituted under a Trust Deed and registered with the Charity Commission under registration number 1014231.
1.1 Accounting convention
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and “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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The accounts have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a true and fair view. This departure has involved following the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn.
The accounts are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of investments. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives unless the funds have been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds would be subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the accounts.
Endowment funds are subject to the specific condition by the founding family that the gains from investments must be maintained within the charity.
1.4 Basis of consolidation
These financial statements consolidate the results of the Charity and its wholly owned subsidiaries.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting from the financial statements of the Charity and its subsidiary. Intra group transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.
No separate Statement of Financial Activities is presented for the Charity because the Charity has taken advantage of paragraph 397 of SORP 2005. The Charity had incoming resources of £1,345,413 (2023: £1,695,580), expenditure of £1,164,875 (2023: £1,576,565), other losses of £(145,709) (2023: £1,356,884) and net movement in funds of £34,829 (2023: £1,237,869 deficit) for the year.

THE JOE & ROSA FRENKEL CHARITABLE TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2024
1 Accounting policies (continued)
1.5 Incoming resources
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the receipt of the donation.
Legacies have not been received.
1.6 Capital donations received
Capital donations are accounted for when the charity is entitled to the income and are added to the endowment fund to be invested. They are not available currently for distribution by the trustees (see "fund accounting" below).
1.7 Resources expended
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been listed under headings that aggregate all the costs related to that activity.
Governance costs include the costs of governance arrangements that relate to the general running of the charity. These activities provide the governance infrastructure that allows the charity to operate and to generate the information required for public accountability.
1.8 Fixed asset investments
Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value and realised gains are recognised within the endowment fund for the year.
Investments listed on a recognised stock exchange are included at mid-market value. Any gain or loss on revaluation is taken to the statement of financial activities. Investment income is accounted for in the period in which the charity is entitled to receipt.
Investment in subsidiary is measured at fair value which equates to shareholders funds at the balance sheet date. Changes in value are recognised in the statement of financial activities.
1.9 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash at call with banks.
1.10 Financial instruments
The Trust only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.
-13-
THE JOE & ROSA FRENKEL CHARITABLE TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2024
1.11 Foreign exchange
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 rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in the statement of financial activities.
1.12 Fund accounting
The Trust holds a general fund that comprises undistributed income, a capital fund that comprises the capital provided to the Trust, realised and unrealised gains and losses on investment assets and foreign currency. The trustees can make transfers from the capital fund to the general fund only by their unanimous approval.
