## **Achievements**
The Trustees are pleased to report Ezer LaYeled's successful accomplishments during the year. These include:
- Family support and advice
- Hospital Volunteer Service
- Occupational Therapy & Sensory Integration
## **Public benefit**
In setting our objectives and planning our activities the Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular to its supplementary public benefit guidance on fee-charging.
Although we ask for a contribution towards the costs of our services, we have given careful consideration to enable individuals on low income to access our services.
Since we are committed to enabling as many children as possible to benefit from the support that Ezer LaYeled offers, we welcome all children regardless of personal background, faith, gender or personal circumstances.
## **Financials**
This year total incoming resources increased by 10.6% to £160,081 (2020 - £144,765). As a result of the increase in income, a surplus of £9,507 was incurred (2020 - deficit £26,351).
The staff and trustees have continued working hard to keep costs and overheads to a minimum without compromising on our high standard of service and professionalism.
Once again, we give credit for our achievements to the remarkable effort made by the trustees and staff.

## **Report of the Directors/Trustees (continued)**
## **Grants and Donations received**
Although we receive voluntary contributions from parents, we nevertheless have a large weekly deficit. In order for us to maximise the level of input that we provide to our clientele, we continuously approach granting bodies and charitable trusts.
None of this valuable work would be possible without the ongoing support of our funders who have trust in our organisation.
These funds have enabled us to provide the much needed support that our beneficiaries, the children, deserve.
The recipients of our services continuously express their appreciation and admiration to all members of the public that assist us in delivering vital services.
## **Investment policy and returns**
Under the memorandum and articles of association, the charity has the power to make any investment which the trustees see fit.
## **Reserves Policy**
The trustees retain reserves of a minimum of £10,000 or more as necessary and where appropriate, consolidate funds in order to enable the charity to meet future needs or to make more substantial grants which they feel to be appropriate.
## **Other Matters**
Whilst preparing the accounts, it was discovered that an overpayment was made during the year The amount has been included in debtors and will be repaid to the charity in full. Controls have been reviewed and processes have been put in place.

## **Responsibilities of the Directors/Trustees**
Company Law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at the Balance Sheet Date, and of its incoming resources, including income and expenditure for the financial year.
In preparing those financial statements, the Directors/Trustees should follow best practice and
- **a.** Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently.
- **b.** Make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent.
- **c.** Follow applicable accounting standards and the Charities SORP, disclosing and explaining any departures in the financial statements.
- **d.** Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the charity will continue in operation.
The Directors/Trustees are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them as Directors/Trustees to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Company Law.
The Directors/Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the charity's assets and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other regularities.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees / Directors**
We report on the financial statements of Ezer LaYeled Limited for the year ended 31 January 2021.
## **Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner**
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities 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 general Directions given by the Charity Commission. 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 the 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.
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 130 of the Charities Act; and
- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities 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.
