Report of the Directors/Trustees (continued)

Achievements

The Trustees are pleased to report Ezer LaYeled's successful accomplishments during the year. These include:

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 is broadly the same at £155,603 (2022 - £156,960). There was a small deficit of £11,472 was incurred (2022 - deficit £8,036).

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.

Report of the Directors/Trustees (continued)

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

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 2023.

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:

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:

  2. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and

  3. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act

have not been met; or

  1. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes To The Accounts

1) Principal Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting

The Accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention in accordance with the Charities Act (Accounts and Reports) 2011, and the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (Effective April 2008), and follow the recommendations in Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (Issued March 2005).

Cash Flow

The accounts do not include a cash flow statement because the charity as a small reporting entity is exempt from the requirement to prepare such a statement.

Donations and Fund Accounting

Rental Income received for the general and main purposes of the Charity is included as unrestricted funds in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable.

Donations and Grants for activities restricted by the donors are taken to restricted funds if the wishes and conditions of the donor are legally binding on the Trustees.

Resources Expended

Resources expended are accounted for on an accruals basis. Certain expenditure is apportioned to cost categories based on estimated amount attributable to that activity in the year. These estimates are based on the time and level of activity as appropriate.

Management and administration costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.

The irrecoverable element of VAT is included with the item of expense to which it relates.

Depreciation

Depreciation on tangible assets is calculated at 15% reducing balance

Support costs

Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.

2) Taxation

The Charitable Company is exempt from taxation on its charitable activities.

3) Turnover

The total turnover of the company for the year has been derived from its principal activity wholly undertaken in the UK.
