The principal activity and objective of the charity is to advance the Jewish faith and observance.

Achievements and Performance
During this financial period under review, the charity continued to maintain the synagogue facilities and prayer services available to the community.
During the period, the charity raised funds by way of donations and the charity will continue to raise further funds to meet the ongoing running costs of the synagogue and its programs. Arrangements are in place to support the needy and unemployed in various ways. For example, cooked meals are provided for the sick and for families where the mother has given birth. The charity continues to rely entirely on the voluntary work undertaken by members of the Jewish community. All fundraising and administration is done without payment of any kind.
Financial Review
During the period, the total income credited to the SOFA was £164,347 (£129,125 — 2024) which included gift aid tax repayments of £6,980. An amount of £119,014 (£89,190 — 2024) was expended towards the day to day running costs of the synagogue and £45,432 (£30,560 — 2024) was paid in donations and support for the needy. The amount held in reserve of £5,656 is expected to be sufficient to meet forthcoming expenditure.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Kol Ya’akov Edgware Trust
I report on the accounts of the trust for the year ended 31 July 2025, which are set out on pages 3-5.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the 1993 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-examine the accounts under section 43 of the 1993 Act;
-to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 43(7)(b) of the 1993 Act; and -to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
,
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the 1993 Act;
and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 1993 Act.
have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
Signed:
Date: 12 February 2026
