## **TRUSTEES’ REPORT** 

## **YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025** 

The Trustees present the eighteenth Report and Accounts for the Charity which are for year ended 30 June 2025. 

## **Basis of preparation of accounts and external scrutiny** 

The accounts have been prepared in receipts and payments format and comply with the Charity’s Trust Deed, applicable law and Charity Commission recommended practice. The Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 since total income for the period was under £1,000,000. Since total income was greater than £25,000, the level at which external scrutiny of the accounts is required, the Trustees have commissioned an independent examination of the accounts for the year, which is reported on page 7. 

## **Reference and administrative information** 

CCECH UK is an unincorporated charity registered in England and Wales (Registered Charity number 1120197). The address of the principal office is shown on page 2. The Charity also operates under the name In Harmony. 

Trustees at the date of this report are shown on page 2. All trustees served throughout the period covered by this report. 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

The Charity is governed by a Trust Deed dated 20 January 2007, as amended by a Supplemental Trust Deed dated 30 June 2007. The Trust Deed requires a minimum of three Trustees in order for business to be transacted. The Trustees retain responsibility for all transactions of the Charity. The Charity does not currently employ any staff. 

New Trustees are appointed by resolution of the Trustees, and are appointed for a period of five years, after which they may be reappointed for a further period of five years if not disqualified under any provision of the Trust Deed. 

Simon Freeman, Hemda Garlick and Sharon Shamroth served as Trustees throughout the period. At a Board meeting held on 21 July 2024 Robin Ellison resigned and Sara Graff and Yvonne Richards were appointed as Trustees. Simon Freeman had served as Chair of the Charity up to the date of that meeting; at that meeting Yvonne Richards was appointed Chair and Sara Graff was appointed Treasurer.

## **Objectives and Activities** 

The objects of the Charity are set out in its governing documents:- 

- To advance education amongst members of the public throughout the world concerning the beliefs, practices, culture, history, folk law, heritage and ethnicity of different ethnic, religious or national groups; 

- The promotion of religious harmony by promoting knowledge and mutual understanding in respect of the beliefs and practices of different faiths; 

- To further or promote any other charitable purpose within the laws of England and Wales. 

In pursuance of its charitable purposes and for the public benefit, CCECH UK provides grants to support education promoting coexistence, principally in Israel. Grants are specifically made to the Centre for Creativity in Education and Cultural Heritage (‘CCECH’) which is a registered Amutah in Israel (reference number 58020-118-4). 

The Trustees have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and are satisfied that the Charity’s aims and activities meet the criteria set. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

Grants of £9,618 were made to CCECH (2023/24 £7,423). 

## **Financial review** 

Receipts of £59,189 were recorded, an increase of  £52,513 compared to the previous financial year. Receipts included a legacy for £50,000 (2023/24 £nil) received on 22May 2025 together with donations of £9,189 (2023/24 £6,676). Donation income included £3,594 Gift Aid (2023/24 £nil). The legacy came from a long time supporter of the work of CCECH. 

Payments of £9,628 (2023/24 £7,423) were almost entirely related to grant payments (£9,618; 2023/24 £7,423) save for £10 fundraising cost (2023/24 £nil) which related to processing costs of an online fundraising site. The level of grants payments was 30% higher than the previous year, reflecting the higher level of donation income received. 

At 30 June 2025 cash funds of £50,940 (2024: £1,379) were held. No other monetary assets were held (2024: £3,594, being a debtor for Gift Aid claimed within the year to 30 June 2024). There were no liabilities (2024: £nil). 

5 

All income and assets were unrestricted. 

The Charity’s fundraising and management effort is delivered on a voluntary basis by supporters. Given the low level of running costs the Trustees see no requirement to hold significant reserves. 

The Trustees declare that they have approved the Trustees’ Report above.
