Kollel Torah Veyirah Limited Trustees Annual Report
The trustees have referred to the guidelines contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the aim and objectives and in planning the charity's future activities. The aims of the charitable company for the public benefit are detailed in the Objectives and Activities section of this report.
The charity provides donations and grants to various institutions and individuals whose objectives align closely with its own.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
As stated above in the significant activities paragraph, the charity had a successful year raising funds which were utilised by providing donations and grants to various institutions and individuals to help achieve its overall charitable objectives.
In the period ending 31.08.2022, the charity also employed a number of staff who's sole role is to support the community and further the charities objectives. This support comes in various forms such as working for local education institutions and helping local charities.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The trustees are satisfied with the results and activities of the charity for the financial year. The trustees monitor the entities performance against the objectives and expectations using financial and non-financial indicators. The key financial performance indicators used by the charity are income from donations and expenditure on charitable activities.
The charity has a policy of maintaining 'Unrestricted Funds' which is the free reserve of the charity, at a level which the trustees think appropriate after considering the future commitments and the likely operational cost for the next year.
The trustees are satisfied after taking into consideration the financial position and commitments that the charity will continue its operational existence for the foreseeable future.
The principal risk and uncertainty to the charity identified by the trustees is a lack of secured funding source for the long term.
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. Systems or internal controls are designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss. The trustees pay particular attention to financial sustainability. The trustees regularly review the available funding sources to ensure that the charity has sufficient liquid funds to meet its short term working capital needs and sustainable funding sources to meet its mid to long term obligations. The principal risks are financial, including items such as a decrease in donations received.
The entity is currently financed solely by donations received from individuals and institutions.
PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS
No change is envisaged in the charity's objective and activity for the future.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
The charity is controlled by its governing document, its memorandum and articles of association, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.
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.
