TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
The Trustees, who are also Directors of the Charity for the purpose of the Companies Act 2006, present their annual report together with the financial statements of B’nai B’rith United Kingdom for the year 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2020.
The Annual Report serves the purposes of both a Trustees' report and a Directors' Report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the Annual Report and financial statements of the Charitable Company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the Charitable Company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2015) as amended by Update Bulletin 1 (effective January 2015).
Since the Charity qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the Strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.
Objectives and activities for the public benenfit
a. Purpose and objectives
The purpose and objectives of the Charity, as per its Memorandum and Articles of Association, are:
-
The defence of human rights and the fight against anti-Semitism, racism and xenophobia.
-
Support for the State of Israel.
-
Humanitarian relief for the needy in Eastern Europe and in Israel.
-
Welfare work in the UK and action to develop Jewish identity, culture, and heritage.
In setting objectives and planning for current and future activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.
Activities and achievements
a. Main activities undertaken to further the Charity's purposes for the public benefit
The main activities undertaken in relation to Charity’s purpose as per its governing document and in the furtherance of public benefit are reviewed below.
The Charity, to all intents and purposes, has ended its affiliation with B’nai B’rith Europe and become an affiliate of the International B’nai B’rith organisation in Washington USA. Founded in 1843 and with members in over 50 countries, B’nai B’rith is recognised as one of the world’s largest organisations focusing on defending human rights, encouraging community action and carrying out humanitarian work.
B’nai B’rith United Kingdom (BBUK) acts as an umbrella organisation for 12 lodges with 600 members. In spite of the Covid-19 pandemic which has blighted most of 2020, BBUK has run a full series of on-line zoom lectures. Activities of lodges have been severely curtailed but fund raising has continued for many good causes in the UK, Eastern Europe and Israel.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
Activities and achievements (continued)
b. Main acheivements
The main acheivements of the Charity in the year have been discussed below:
London Bureau of International Affairs
The Bureau has continued to engage with diplomats via the zoom platform and has brought a number of high level diplomats to the membership via on-line talks with Q&A sessions.
Humanitarian work in Israel
Fund raising has continued at previous levels to help disadvantaged individuals and families in the township of Qiryat Gat.
Humanitarian work in Ukraine
Thanks to the efforts of BBUK’s project leaders, substantial sums have been sent to provide medical care for the many aged Jews and righteous gentiles in Kiev, Ukraine.
Membership
Although membership continues to decline, a new lodge in Radlett, Hertfordshire has gone some way to reverse the trend. A number of other Lodges continue to flourish and attract new members.
Younger membership
The organisation has tried hard over the last few years to introduce younger members but in spite of investing heavily the reality has been that the effort has been largely unsuccessful. Accordingly a decision was taken to accept the difficulty of this project and cease further funding.
Financial review
a. Financial results
The Charity has a number of restricted and endowment funds, including the Schiff Fund and the Rothschild Fund. The use of the Schiff fund is unrestricted and is used to support and supplement the work of the Charity. The Rothschild Fund is restricted to helping Jewish undergraduate students.
During the year to 31 December 2020, the Charity received income of £91,559 (2019: £84,718). Income was derived from donations and investment income received. Total expenditure was £119,244 (2019: £117,034). Investment gains were £19,692 (2019: £64,262). The net loss for the year was £7,993 (2019: surplus £31,946). As at the 31 December 2020, the Charity held unrestricted general reserves of £125,746 (2019: £125,933), restricted funds of £143,522 (2019:137,006) and endowment funds of £326,301 (2019: £340,623).
b. Financial risk management
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the Charity and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
c. Reserves policy
Reserves are needed to bridge the gap between spending and receiving income to meet commitments. The Trustees consider that an ideal level of unrestricted reserves as at 31 December 2020 is £60,000. The Charity continues to monitor this position.
d. Going concern and COVID-19
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the Trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist, including considering the impact of COVID-19. The Trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the Charity to be able to continue as a going concern.
Structure, governance and management
a. Constitution and organisational structures
The Charity was incorporated on 6th March 1997 and is a Company Limited by Guarantee registered with the Registrar of Companies for England and Wales (Registration number 03328487) and is a Charity registered with the Charity Commission (Registration number 1061661). The Charity is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. In the event of the Company being wound up, members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1.
The Charitable Company operates in association with thirteen branches (lodges) throughout the United Kingdom, each with a President who reports on their activities. The Company itself has a President, Vice President, Honorary Secretary, Honorary Treasurer and Mentor to the President, all of whom are Trustees. Further individuals provide leadership for the Charity’s operations covering the following areas: human rights, humanitarian work in Israel, humanitarian work in Ukraine, Jewish culture and heritage, publicity and Youth and Southern Regional Council.
b. Recruitment and appointment of Trustees
The Trustees are elected under the terms of the Memorandum of Association.
Trustees may serve without time restriction, until they are replaced, or they resign. New Trustees are appointed by existing Trustees and would be required to attend appropriate training courses.
The Trustees consider that the Trustee board comprises an appropriate mix of individuals with complementary skills and experience so as to meet the needs of the Charity.
This report has been prepared taking advantage of the small companies’ exemption of the Companies Act 2006.

-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
-
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
1. General information
The Charity is a Company Limited by Guarantee registered with the Registrar of Companies for England and Wales (Registration number 03328487) and is a Charity registered with the Charity Commission (Registration number 1061661). The Charity is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. In the event of the Company being wound up, members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1.
2. Accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
B'nai B'rith United Kingdom meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
The Charity has applied Update Bulletin 1 as published on 2 February 2016 and does not include a cash flow statement on the grounds that it is applying FRS 102 Section 1A.
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the Charity and rounded to the nearest pound.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
2.2 Going concern
The Trustees have assessed the use of going concern and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the Charity to continue as a going concern, including the impact of COVID-19. The Trustees have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of the approval of these financial statements. The Trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements.
2.3 Income
All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Other income is recognised in the period in which it is receivable and to the extent the goods have been provided or on completion of the service.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.4 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
2.5 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.
2.6 Taxation
The Charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
2.7 Investments
Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the Balance sheet date, unless the value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and presented as ‘Gains/(Losses) on investments’ in the Statement of financial activities.
2.8 Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.9 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and 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.
2.10 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
2.11 Financial instruments
The Charity only holds basic Financial Instruments. The financial assets and financial liabilities of the Charity are as follows:
Cash at bank - is classified as a basic financial instrument and is measured at face value.
Liabilities - trade creditors, accruals and other creditors will be classified as financial instruments, and are measured at amortised cost as detailed in Note 10. Taxation and social security are not included in the financial instruments disclosure. Deferred income is not deemed to be a financial liability, as in the cash settlement has already taken place and there is simply an obligation to deliver charitable services rather than cash or another financial instrument.
2.12 Pensions
The Charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the Charity to the fund in respect of the year.
2.13 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Expendable endowment funds can be used to provide income or capital for the Charity at the discretion of the Trustees.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
