STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Constitution

The Board of Deputies Charitable Foundation is a registered UK charity no. 1058107 and a company limited by guarantee (registration no. 3239086). The company was incorporated on 19 August 1996 and commenced its operations on 1 January 1997. The governing document of the company is the Memorandum and Articles of Association.

The Board of Deputies is democratic and representative. This is based upon a system of delegates (known as Deputies) elected from the great majority of Jewish communal organisations, including synagogues, social and welfare organisations, local community bodies and others.

There are currently 299 Deputies plus 21 under 35 representatives. The Deputies elect their Honorary Officers, comprising a President, three Vice-Presidents and a Treasurer, on a three-year cycle. These Honorary Officers provide the Trustees and Directors of the Charitable Foundation.

BOARD OF DEPUTIES CHARITABLE FOUNDATION TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

The Trustees are ultimately responsible for decision-making. The day-to-day working of the Board of Deputies is carried out by a professional staff team, under the direction of the Chief Executive and senior management team.

The charity follows guidelines of the Charity Commission in the induction of new Trustees including checking eligibility and conflicts of interest. In addition, Trustee training is encouraged through communal organisations.

Pay and remuneration of the charity’s key management personnel is set by considering cost of living increases and benchmarking against similar charitable organisations and approved by the President and Treasurer. The Trustees receive no remuneration for their role.

Relationship between the Charitable Foundation and its related parties

The entities listed below share Trustees or Directors in common with the Board of Deputies Charitable Foundation.

The Board of Deputies of British Jews Limited

The Board of Deputies of British Jews Limited is a small, consolidated subsidiary which receives the Representation Fees from member organisations and synagogues, processes deputy expenses and performs grassroots advocacy activities.

BOD Heritage Limited

BOD Heritage Limited is a small, consolidated subsidiary with charitable status. It exists to hold the title of non-active Jewish cemeteries, which the charity maintains on behalf of the community.

Board of Deputies Charitable Trust

The principal activities of the Charitable Trust have been undertaken by the Charitable Foundation since the 1 January 1997. The Charitable Trust was responsible for contracting the lease at Commonwealth House and incurred all the obligations under the lease. With the move from Commonwealth House, these obligations had ceased. And as a result, the Charitable Trust has undertaken very little activity since 2004.

The Trustees obtained professional advice to close the Charitable Trust by transferring its activities and net assets to the Charitable Foundation on 31 December 2009. The Trustees are considering further the position of the Charitable Trust in relation to its holding of the Sir Richard Burton manuscript. The Charitable Trust remained dormant in the year ended 31 December 2020.

The Board of Deputies Charitable Foundation charged a management fee of £27,344 during the year to the Board of Deputies of British Jews Limited (2019 - £28,932).

OBJECTIVES, ACTIVITIES AND PUBLIC BENEFIT

Public Benefit Statement

The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit, ‘Charities and Public Benefit’. These requirements are addressed in this report.

Objectives

The objects of the company, which formed its activities during the year, were as follows:-

BOARD OF DEPUTIES CHARITABLE FOUNDATION TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

Through the Executive Committee, the Divisions, the staff and other structures, the Board of Deputies monitors its activities to ensure adherence to its objectives, whilst also having regard to changing circumstances affecting the community. Such activities adhere to the public benefit requirements by providing services to the public, or a significant and identifiable part of it, which are of tangible benefit and in accordance with its charitable objects.

Volunteers

The Board of Deputies works with a number of volunteers in particular in the delivery of its education and Yom HaShoah activities. All Deputies are volunteers.

Achievements and Performance

The Board of Deputies has reinforced its role as the voice of the UK Jewish community: the first port of call for Government, media and others seeking to understand the Jewish community’s interests and concerns.

Its activities have included the following highlights, which accord with its objectives and deliver a tangible benefit to the Jewish community and wider society. This is achieved through promoting the understanding of the Jewish community, and other faith communities, through cohesion, advocacy and education.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Consolidated accounts are prepared as the Trustees believe that this arrangement best portrays the financial position of the charitable company and other entities, which are under common control of the Trustees of the Foundation.

The consolidated net surplus for the year before gains on investments was £53,021 (2019: Deficit £165,453). This surplus was achieved primarily as a result of a substantial increase in communal contributions received in the year.

Income and Fundraising

Source of Income Year to 31 Dec 2020 Actuals Year to 31 Dec 2020 Budget
Communal Contribution £738,799 £550,000
Representative Fees £125,103 £126,000
Donations and other income £389,622 £416,539
TOTAL £1,253,524 £1,092,539

The Board of Deputies’ main source of income is the voluntary Communal Contribution (CC). Other sources of income are grants, donations and Representation Fees.

The CC is requested from the members of the represented synagogues together with the normal membership dues and is passed to the Board. It is the accepted practice to include the CC amount within the synagogues’ request for a donation, totalled with membership and other contributions.

When a synagogue elects its Deputy or Deputies, it formally undertakes to request that all of its members pay to the Board of Deputies a sum of money equal to the CC set by the Board of Deputies. The level of CC is determined by the Board of Deputies in a board meeting and reviewed at regular intervals.

Income from the communal contribution was £ 738,799 in 2020 compared to £517,215 in 2019. Although some of this increase was a result of the change in accounting estimate in 2019, much was directly attributable to additional collection activities necessitated by the pandemic.

Every synagogue and organisation that belongs to the Board of Deputies is required to contribute a Representation Fee. In 2019 the fees were as follows: -

2019 the fees were as follows: -
Synagogues with under 100 members:
£ 245 per Deputy
Synagogues with more than 100 members:
£ 495 per Deputy
Organisations: £ 595 per Deputy

Representation Fees are payable yearly in advance on 1 June. The Representation Fee assessed by the Board of Deputies is binding on all the represented constituencies for the whole Triennial Session of the Board of Deputies.

BOARD OF DEPUTIES CHARITABLE FOUNDATION TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

The Representation Fees received for the year were £ 125,103 (2019: £117,302).

Fundraising

In addition to the Communal Contribution and the Representation Fees described above, the Board of Deputies also fundraises at its annual President’s Dinner, where attendees are invited to make a voluntary donation to the charity. Owing to effects of Covid-19, the President’s Dinner did not take place this year. The Board also obtains sponsorship and promotional fees for this event. Other fundraising activities include receiving donations from the global charities the World Jewish Congress and the European Jewish Congress.

The Board of Deputies is registered with the Fundraising Regulator and there was full compliance with the scheme during the year. During the year no third-party fundraising organisations were used. There were no complaints about its fundraising activities. The Board of Deputies did not actively seek donations from general members of the public.

Reserves Policy

The Trustees have previously examined the requirement for free reserves which are those unrestricted funds not invested in fixed assets, designated for specific purposes or otherwise committed. The Trustees consider that, under normal circumstances and given the nature of the Board's work, this should be between 6 and 12 months’ expenditure.

Total reserves at 31 December 2020 were £4,517k (2019: £4,221k). After taking into account restricted reserves of £24k (2019: £38k), the unrestricted free reserves are £434k (2019: £372k).

The Board is maintaining its reserves until such time as suitable investment opportunities are found and full normality resumes following the pandemic.

Investment Policy

The Board’s investment portfolio continued to be managed by the two professional investment management firms that were appointed with the assistance of our external professional investment advisor in 2018. The investment managers are mandated to manage their respective parts of the Board’s portfolio so as to produce favourable returns over appropriate periods of time, taking into account investment market conditions with moderate risk via a diversified mix of traditional and alternative investments with a variety of liquidity profiles. The investment advisor and fund managers inform the Board of Deputies regarding any ethical, social or environmental concerns regarding the investments.

As at 31 December 2020, the increase in value of the Board’s investments (excluding dividend income) during the year was £242,880 (c.6.4%) which was in conformity with our targets.

Information on the financial position of subsidiaries

Board of Deputies of British Jews Limited:

The company continued operating during the year. At 31 December 2020 it had reserves of £102,666 (2019: £125,724). Income in the year was £125,117 (£125,103 from Representation Fees) and expenditure was £148,175.

BOD Heritage Limited:

The company continued operating during the year. At 31 December 2020 it had reserves of (£1,609) (2019: (£1,594)). Expenditure during the year was £ 15.

Risk Management and Covid 19

The key risks faced by the charity include:

BOARD OF DEPUTIES CHARITABLE FOUNDATION TRUSTEES’ REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

The Finance and Organisation Division maintain a Risk Management Working Group to consider risks and provides guidance to the Trustees on appropriate mitigating actions which include maintaining a sufficient level of reserves.

The ongoing Covid-19 crisis has significantly impacted upon our planned operations and activities. All staff have been working from home since 17 March 2020 while the office remains closed. Although some activities were cancelled, we have managed to introduce alternative events remotely and carry on with all day-to-day operations. Having considered post year-end results and reserves, the Trustees consider the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis.

Disclosure of information to auditors

Each of the Trustees has confirmed that there is no information of which they are aware which is relevant to the audit, but of which the auditor is unaware. They have further confirmed that they have taken appropriate steps to identify such relevant information and to establish that the auditors are aware of such information.

BOARD OF DEPUTIES CHARITABLE FOUNDATION STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

The trustees, who are also the directors of Board of Deputies Charitable Foundation for the purposes of company law, are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and accounts in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland”.

Company law requires the charity trustees to prepare accounts for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and the group and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable group for that period.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and the group and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

BOARD OF DEPUTIES CHARITABLE FOUNDATION INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT TO THE MEMBERS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Board of Deputies Charitable Foundation (‘the charitable company’) and its subsidiaries (‘the group’) for the year ended 31 December 2020 which comprise Group Statement of Financial Activities, the Group and Company Balance Sheets, the Group Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including 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:

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 financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements 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

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustee's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's or the group’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the trustees’ report. The other information comprises the information included in the trustees’ report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements 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 this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit

BOARD OF DEPUTIES CHARITABLE FOUNDATION INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT TO THE MEMBERS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and charitable company and their environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors’ report included within the trustees’ report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 11, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) 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 charitable company’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 liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

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.

Details of the extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud and noncompliance with laws and regulations are set out below.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We identified and assessed the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements from irregularities, whether due to fraud or error, and discussed these between our audit team members. We then designed and performed audit procedures responsive to those risks, including obtaining audit evidence sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks within which the charitable company and group operates, focusing on those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The laws and regulations we considered in this context were the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2011 together with the Charities SORP (FRS102). We assessed the required compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our audit procedures on the related financial statement items.

In addition, we considered provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with which might be fundamental to the charitable company’s and the group’s ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty. We also considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the

BOARD OF DEPUTIES CHARITABLE FOUNDATION INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT TO THE MEMBERS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

charitable company and the group for fraud. The laws and regulations we considered in this context for the UK operations were employment legislation, taxation legislation and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Auditing standards limit the required audit procedures to identify non-compliance with these laws and regulations to enquiry of the Trustees and other management and inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.

We identified the greatest risk of material impact on the financial statements from irregularities, including fraud, to be within the timing of recognition of communal contribution income and the override of controls by management. Our audit procedures to respond to these risks included enquiries of management and the trustees’ about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities, sample testing on the posting of journals, reviewing accounting estimates for biases, reviewing regulatory correspondence with the Charity Commission, sample testing of communal contribution income and reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.

Owing 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, the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations (irregularities) is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited procedures required by auditing standards would identify it. In addition, 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 non-compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s 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 charitable company and the charitable company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

BOARD OF DEPUTIES CHARITABLE FOUNDATION NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

1 Accounting Policies

1.1 Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared 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) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

The Charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.

The comparative figures relate to the year ended 31 December 2019.

1.2 Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis

The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis and the trustees believe that despite the difficulties resulting from the coronavirus pandemic, there are no material uncertainties about the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern having regard to the level of the Charity’s reserves.

1.3 Basis of consolidation

The financial statements consolidate the results of the Charity, the Board of Deputies Charitable Trust (charity number 222160 - England and Wales) which is dormant and BOD Heritage (charity number 1133181- England and Wales, company number 06720581 - England and Wales). The Charity shares trustees in common with these entities and has related objects. Accordingly, all the activities have been consolidated into these accounts on the basis of common control.

Additionally, the accounts incorporate the Board of Deputies of British Jews Limited (company number 06781106 – England and Wales). This is a not-for-profit company that carries out non-charitable activities on behalf of the Board of Deputies. The trustees of the Charity are also the directors of the company. Subsidiaries have been consolidated on a line-by-line basis. A separate Statement of Financial Activities and Income and Expenditure Account for the Charity has not been presented because the Charity has taken advantage of the exemption afforded by section 408 of the Companies Act 2006.

1.4 Income

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably. The CC represents amounts received from synagogues and related organisations. These are accounted for on an accruals basis.

Government grants are recognised on the performance model, when the charity has complied with any conditions attaching to the grant and the grant has been received. The grant in connection to the job retention scheme has been recognised in the period to which the underlying furloughed staff costs relate.

All other incoming resources are accounted for on a receivable basis except for donations and grants where donors impose conditions which have to be fulfilled before the charity becomes entitled to such income. In such cases the income is deferred and not included in incoming resources until the pre-conditions for use have been met.

1.5 Investment income

Interest on funds held on deposit is included upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank. Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received by our investment advisor of the investment portfolio.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

BOARD OF DEPUTIES CHARITABLE FOUNDATION

1.6 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.

Costs of raising funds comprise those costs associated with attracting voluntary income and the costs for fundraising purposes from charity events.

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the audit fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity.

All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the SoFA on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource. Costs relating to a particular activity are allocated directly.

1.7 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets other than freehold land are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its expected useful life, as follows:

Fixtures, fittings & equipment 10% & 33% straight line

Only capital items with a value in excess of £1,000 have been capitalised.

The policy with respect to impairment reviews of fixed assets is that these assets are inspected regularly for any impairment and any defect remedied so as to maintain current value.

1.8 Fixed asset investments

Investments represent basic financial instruments that are measured at fair value as at the balance sheet date using the closing market price. Gains and losses are taken to the statement of financial activities as they arise. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated by reference to the value at which the investment was included in previous year’s accounts, or the cost if acquired during the year. Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the fair value at year end and their carrying value. Realised and unrealised investment gains and losses are combined in the statement of financial activities.

1.9 Debtors

Debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any discount offered and provision for bad and doubtful debts. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any discounts due.

1.10 Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

1.11 Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the Charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any discounts due.

BOARD OF DEPUTIES CHARITABLE FOUNDATION NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

1.12 Financial instruments

The Charity only has financial assets and 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.

1.13 Pensions

For defined-contribution schemes, the amount charged to the SoFA in respect of pension costs and other postretirement benefits is the contribution payable in the year. Any difference between the charge to the SoFA and the contributions payable to the scheme is shown as an asset or a liability in the Balance Sheet.

1.14 Operating leases

Rentals payable under operating leases are charged against income on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

1.15 Fund accounting

The Board of Deputies Charitable Foundation maintains various types of funds as follows, and transfers are made where necessary as permitted by the nature of the funds:

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.

Restricted funds represent income received which is allocated by the donor to a specific project. The restrictions are binding on the trustees of the charity.

Designated funds represent funds which are unrestricted, but the Trustees have designed them for a specific purpose to further the objectives of the charity.

1.16 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods. The trustees do not believe there to be judgements or estimates that would be considered material to the financial statements.

2 Legal status of the Charity

The Charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee, number 3239086 and has no share capital. Its registered office is at 1 Torriano Mews, London, NW5 2RZ. In the event of the Charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £10 per member of the Charity.
