CONGREGATION VYOEL MOSHE D'SATMER CHARIT ABLE TRUST

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

The charity was constituted by Declaration of Trust dated 11th April 2008.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

Charitable objects

The objects of the charity are the furtherance of the Orthodox Jewish religion by way of support to educational institutions, assisting in the reduction of poverty and granting help for charitable causes at the discretion of the trustees. We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities.

Synagogue

The charity is responsible for the maintenance of premises used as a synagogue. The property is used rent free but any maintenance and repairs are the responsibility of the charity. Extensive expenditure was and will continue to be incurred in order to make the property suitable for use as a synagogue. The property is owned by another charity. The synagogue is used as a study hall and food is now provided to those requiring the facilities.

Summer camp

The charity assists with the finance of a summer camp for youth who are connected with the local Satmar community. This includes paying for the rent of suitable premises for the camp as well as for food and transport.

Medical assistance

The charity assists when requested with medical expenses incurred by individuals who are unable to pay.

Grants

The charity makes grants to charitable causes both in the UK and overseas. Such grants are made after extensive enquiries by the trustees and following satisfactory recommendations.

Grantmaking

The charity is controlled by local trustees who are very familiar with all the charitable causes that the charity supports. Regular meetings are held to review and discuss the charity's activities.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Fundraising activities

The charity received £525,425 (2021: £813,149) in donations during the year. With the increase in donations received the charity was able to provide grants amounting to £575,6341 (2021: £826,611). There were fundraising costs incurred during the year amounting to £17,855 (2021: £27,544).

Internal and external factors

The trustees have put in place systems to identify risks and review the systems regularly.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The charity's income increased during the year and accordingly the charity was able to make substantial increases in the grants made. The reserves have increased and will be carried forward.

FUTURE PLANS

The charity plans to continue its activities subject to satisfactory incoming resources

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

It is not currently the intention of the trustees of the charity to appoint new trustees. Should this situation change in the future, the trustees will apply suitable recruitment and training procedures

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland"

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales, the Charities Act 2011, Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CONGREGATION VYOEL MOSHE D'SATMER CHARIT ABLE TRUST

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Congregation Vyoel Moshe D'Satmer Charit able Trust

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Congregation Vyoel Moshe D'Satmer Charit able Trust (the Trust) for the year ended 31 March 2022.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of A.C.A which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
