THE DYNA AND FALA WEINSTOCK CHARITABLE TRUST
TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
The trustees present their annual report together with the audited financial statements of The Dyna and Fala Weinstock Charitable Trust for the 1 April 2023 to 31 March 2024.
The trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charity comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: 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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
Objectives and activities
a. Policies and objectives
The trustees have the power under the Trust Deed to apply the Trust Fund for any charitable purpose at their absolute discretion. However the primary consideration of the trustees is to apply the Trust Fund for medical projects principally in relation to providing blood clinics and work towards the alleviation of symptoms of blood disorders, and research into and development of cures and treatments for sufferers of blood disorders.
During the year the charity's objectives were to continue to support a wide variety of registered charities operating in medical, educational, cultural and poverty relief activities in the United Kingdom, Eastern Europe and Israel.
The charity is able to achieve its objectives by the release of income and capital from its investment portfolio which is used to fund grants to other charitable organisations.
The trustees have paid due regard to the Charity Commission's public benefit guidance in considering the Charity's objectives and activities. The trustees consider that any reader would be satisfied the actions of the charity work towards these objectives.
In setting objectives and planning for 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)'.
b. Grant-making policies
The Charity’s policy on grant-making is to be primarily reactive and pragmatic, with the aim of selecting the best projects from applications received. Most grants are for core funding or capital projects.
The trustees assess grant applications, taking into account key factors such as the extent of the need, evidence of effectiveness, capacity to deliver, and the length of time since the last grant was made to the applicant, as well as the charitable aims of the project. The trustees decide at their meetings which applicants to fund.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
Objectives and activities (continued)
c. Applications for funding
Organisations who would like to apply to the Dyna and Fala Weinstock Charitable Trust for funding of projects are invited to submit a written application to the trustees at:
Dyna and Fala Weinstock Charitable Trust Ground Floor Churchill House 120 Bunns Lane Mill Hill NW7 2AS
The charity will only accept applications from registered charities. Funding is provided for both core and capital project costs.
The trustees meet regularly to review all applications which fall within the current priorities for funding and review each application within three months of receipt. Most of the grants awarded are one-off payments but recurring grants for up to a year may be made subject to specific conditions. These conditions include an annual progress review where payment of subsequent years' grants is dependent on the satisfactory outcome of the progress review or recipients being able to prove they have obtained full funding for the specific project. Further appeals from organisations will not normally be considered for three years from the date of the final award.
Contact is maintained with recipients of grants formally through receipt of reports from charities or informally via the trustees visiting the donee.
Achievements and performance
a. Main achievements of the charity
Donations by the Trust have helped alleviate the effects of poverty, ill health and abuse in the UK, Eastern Europe and Israel as well as advancing education in many fields.
Highlights:
The Trust granted £40,000 to British Emunah Fund to help towards a new generator at Neve Landy.
The Trust granted £75,000 to UK Toremet, for improving the navigation for patients around the Kaplan Medical Centre.
The trust granted £50,000 to the World Jewish Relief towards their Homecare and Active Aging programmes.
b. Investment policy and returns
Under the Deed of Variation, the trustees may invest or appropriate the Trust Fund as they think fit. Decisions of most of the Trustees present airing at any duly constituted meeting are valid and binding on all the Trustees.
The trustees have engaged Julius Baer Group and Canaccord Genuity Wealth Management to provide them with professional investment management advice. At 1 April 2023, the valuation of the investment portfolios was £4,417,783. After bringing in additions of £1,616,080, disposals of £2,411,223 and unrealised revaluation gains of £588,142, the closing valuation of the the investment portfolios was £4,210,786, which represents a decrease of 4.7% in the year.

THE DYNA AND FALA WEINSTOCK CHARITABLE TRUST
TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
Achievements and performance (continued)
The investments this year generated a net profit of £565,756 (2023: a net loss of: £409,308). The Julius Baer portfolio is a few number of large investments, whereas the Canaccord Genuity Wealth Management investment portfolio holding is a larger number of investments at smaller values with the aim to diversify.
Financial review
a. Going concern
The income of the Trust is almost entirely derived from investments held by an investment portfolio managed by Julius Baer Group and Canaccord Genuity Wealth Management. The investment portfolios holds a diverse range of investments which reduce the investment holding risk. The trustees are also aware of the possibility of reduced dividend and interest income. There are however significant unrestricted funds available and they consider that the Trust would continue to meet its obligations as they fall due.
Thus 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. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.
b. Financial review
The Statement of financial activities set out on page 12 of the financial statements shows how the Trust's incoming resources have been expended in the year ended 31 March 2024.
The principal funding source of the charity is investment income received in the form of dividends on equity shares and interest on cash balances. Total incoming resources amounted to £118,063 (2023: £129,649). The Trust does not actively fundraise from the public.
Resources expended amounted to £423,755 (2023: £561,736), with £354,450 (2023: £479,329) defrayed in making grants, £6,501 (2023: £19,538) on investment management fees and £62,804 (2023: £62,869) on support and governance costs.
The investment portfolio generated net gains of £565,756 (2023: net loss of £409,308).
Overall, the net increase in funds for the year was £260,064 (2023: net decrease of £841,395).
The statement of financial position set out on page 13 of the financial statements shows the financial position of the Trust at 31 March 2024.
Investments are held for growth under the management of professional custodians. The objective of the investment policy is to generate income that can be used to make grants in support of the charity's objectives. The market value of the investments was £4,210,786 (2023: £4,417,783).
Current assets of £663,658 (2023: £343,399) is represented by accrued interest of £1,674 (2023: £6,088), and cash at bank of £661,984 (2023: £337,311).
Current liabilities of £245,300 (2023: £392,102) is represented by grants pledged, and paid after the year end, of £233,570 (2023: £381,902) and accrued expenditure of £11,730 (2023: £10,200).
The resulting net assets amount to £4,629,144 (2023: £4,369,080) which is represented by unrestricted income fund of £4,629,144 (2023: £4,369,080). As at 31 March 2024, the level of free reserves is £418,358 (2023: deficit £48,703). The policy of the trustees is to hold the income of the charity in reserves, which will be applied towards the Trust's grant making activities and to meet the Trust's ongoing overheads and administrative expenses.

The Charity has a risk register maintained by the trustees. The register is reviewed on a regular basis at the meetings of trustees. Systems and procedures have been put in place to manage those risks. In particular, risk is managed by the trustees who ensure it is considered and integral element of all decision making and identify appropriate procedures to ensure that risk levels are acceptable in each case.
Plans for future periods

To perpetuate the memory of Dyna and Fala Weinstock through commemorations associated with the larger donations.
To manage the assets of the trust in a prudent manner, with the benefit of professional advise.

-
so far as that trustee is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the charity's auditor is unaware, and

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England & Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

THE DYNA AND FALA WEINSTOCK CHARITABLE TRUST
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE DYNA AND FALA WEINSTOCK CHARITABLE TRUST FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of The Dyna and Fala Weinstock Charitable Trust (the 'charity') for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise the Statement of financial activities, the Balance sheet and the related notes, 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).
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards 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 been withdrawn.
This has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 31 March 2024 and of its 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 financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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 trustees' 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 charity'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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE DYNA AND FALA WEINSTOCK CHARITABLE TRUST (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2023
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual report other than the financial statements and our Auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual report. 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 course of 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.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the Trustees' report is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Trustees' responsibilities statement, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements which 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 liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE DYNA AND FALA WEINSTOCK CHARITABLE TRUST (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2023
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditor under section 145 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:
-
the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
-
we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the charity through discussions with trustees and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience of the not-for-profit sector;
-
we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the charity, including the Charities Act 2011, Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with FRS102;
-
we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management; and
-
identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit.
We assessed the susceptibility of the charity’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by:
-
making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and
-
considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.
To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:
-
performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships;
-
tested a sample of journal entries to identify unusual transactions; and
-
investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.
In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:
-
agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation;
-
reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; and
-
enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE DYNA AND FALA WEINSTOCK CHARITABLE TRUST (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2023
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements (continued)
There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.
Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.
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.
Use of our report
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 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 charity and its trustees, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

THE DYNA AND FALA WEINSTOCK CHARITABLE TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
1. General information
The Dyna and Fala Weinstock Charitable Trust is a charity registered in England and Wales. The Charity's registered number is 1063559 and the principal office is Ground Floor, Churchill House, 120 Bunns Lane, Mill Hill, NW7 2AS.
The financial statements are presented in Sterling (£).
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 Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and 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 Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
The Dyna and Fala Weinstock Charitable Trust 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.
2.2 Going concern
After making enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence and meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future, being a period of at least twelve months from the date these financial statements were approved. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the 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.

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. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the charity to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
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 under the following activity headings:
-
Cost of raising funds comprise the costs of exchange gains or losses and any foreign dividend tax charges.
-
Charitable activities includes the governance costs which are the costs incurred with administration of the charity, and the donation expenditure.
-
Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.
-
Costs of generating funds are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.
-
Charitable activities and Governance costs are costs incurred on the charity's operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
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 Foreign currencies
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at rates of exchange ruling at the reporting date.
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate ruling on the date of the transaction.
Exchange gains and losses are recognised in the statement of financial activities.

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 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.
2.9 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.
Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
2.10 Financial instruments
The charity has elected to apply Sections 11 and 12 of FRS 102 in respect of financial instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the charity after deducting all of its liabilities.
The charity’s policies for its major classes of financial assets and financial liabilities are set out below.
Financial assets
Basic financial assets, including other debtors and cash and bank balances are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Financing transactions are those in which payment is deferred beyond normal business terms or is financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate.
Such assets are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

Financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including other creditors are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Financing transactions are those in which payment is deferred beyond normal business terms or is financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method, less any impairment.
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
For financial assets measured at cost less impairment, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the best estimate of the amount the charity would receive for the asset if it were to be sold at the reporting date.
For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. If the financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract.
If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities
Financial assets are derecognised when (a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or (b) substantially all the risks and rewards of the ownership of the asset are transferred to another party or (c) despite having retained some significant risks and rewards of ownership, control of the asset has been transferred to another party who has the practical ability to unilaterally sell the asset to an unrelated third party without imposing additional restrictions.
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the liability is extinguished, that is when the contractual obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires.
Offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is an enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
