ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
The charlty has continued to provide education, training and employment services for refugees durin8
the year. The support delivered via contracts with World Jewish Relief continued, although reduced
as avallable fundin8 was lower than In prior years. The tralning centre 15 SUPPOrted by corporate
volunteers and volunteers from the general public without whose work rnany actwities and events
would not occur.
FINANCIAI REVIEW
Flnandal performance
The charlty generated a surplu5 of £11,892 In 2025 12024: £4.1141. Overall turnover reduced to
£261,663 from £307,709, as fundlng was Teduced. The cost base of the organlsation has been reduced
as fundin8 has reduced. The net assets of the charlly have Increased and the level of reserves 15 at a
level that reflects the trustees approach to reserves.
Reserves poll¢v
The company has adopted the Reserves Pollcy of the Horton Houslng Group and doe5 not operate a
separote pollcy. The pollcy sets out that sufflclent reserves should be malntalned "in order to provlde
rellable services over the k)n8er term and have the capacity to absorb setbacks and to take advintage
of change and opportun[t￿.
The Horton Houslng Group operate5 comprehenSNe risk management procedures Sn order to
minlmise the risk of sudden flnancial105s or the Inablllty to contlnue operatlng. The charlty benefhs
from operatlonal support and use of premises from the Group parent companyi Horton Housing
Associatlon. Good risk management enables the charlty to use its avallable funds as fully as p055lble
to achleve Its charltable oblectlves and reduces the need for large reserves to be held as cash.
The charity aims to steadlly bulld up Its reserves and as at 31 March 2025 the charlty's unrestricted
general reserve stood at £80,075. The level of reserves Is regularty monltOTed as part of Its financlal
reporting and bud8etin8 processes
Plans for future perlods
The contractual commbtments for funding from World Jewlsh Rellef have been extended, but at
fvrther reduced levels for the 2025126 year. Whllst the activity is expetted to continue, the charliy Is
exploring the possibility of tran5ferrlng the actSvity to the parent company which may result In the
company becoming dormant durin8 2025126. Thi5 will potentially be taken forward at the next
renewal dates for the World Jewlsh Relief contracts. Nor formal declslon has yet been made, and the
company contlnues to operate and meet its obligations. The Group, however, also continues to seek
opportunities to expand its training and Social enterprise activltles to support its key objectives, Ind
success In dolng so may mean the Company continuing to trade.
