TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2020
The Trustees present their annual report together with the audited financial statements of the charitable company for the year 1 November 2019 to 31 October 2020. The annual report serves the purposes of both a Trustees' report and a directors' report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019).
Since the charitable company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.
Achievements and performance
a. Main achievements of the charitable company
During the year, the Home provided day to day care at varying levels depending on the requirements of the residents. The Home has a large proportion of people with dementia and continues to improve its standard of care for the increased number of our residents will all types of dementia. As with previous years, various outings were arranged but were stopped in March 2020 due to Covid-19 and the restrictions imposed during lockdown and for the well-being of the residents.
Similarly, activities normally organised in the Home on a weekly basis, including visits from pianists, choirs and schoolchildren from the community, were stopped at the outset of the pandemic and were partly resumed on a very limited basis during the autumn before the second lockdown in the late autumn.
Due to the pandemic and subsequent lockdowns, the Trustees met in November 2020 and made the heart breaking decision to close the Home due to the reduced number of residents and the related financial constraints. Choice House has been running at a loss for many years, surviving on its reserves and occasional legacies, which are not sufficient for the future given the reduced number of residents. Additionally, local authorities stopped funding placements and the Jewish community in the Wembley area has diminished considerably, which further led to the decision.
The charity has cared for members of the community for over 270 years but in the absence of a substantial injection of funds, there was no alternative but to start the process of closure in the first quarter of 2021.
The controlled closure of the Home occurred once all residents had received their second vaccinations and they were able to find suitable accommodation in other care homes.
Following the last departure, the Home managed to sell some of the furniture and equipment, albeit for nominal amounts and since the late summer of this year, the premises are occupied on a short term tenancy agreement whilst ongoing discussions with the Spanish & Portuguese Community conclude with a decision regarding the future of the site. The trustees do intend for the charity to continue for the benefit of the Jewish community for the foreseeable future.
The Campus was fortunate to have such a wonderful team of loyal, patient, caring and understanding staff under the supervision of Paula Peake (Chief Executive) and Roger Ellis (Registered Manager), and their incredible hard work that they all endured once the pandemic crisis started and throughout the ensuing period to closure. Ultimately all of the staff had to be made redundant and the Trustees are extremely grateful to all of them and their dedication.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2020
Achievements and performance (continued)
b. Policies and objectives
In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.
Financial review
a. Financial evaluation
The Statement of Financial Activities for 2020 shows an underlying deficit for the year of £371,390 (2019: £30,200) in overall funds. The budget was exceeded in the previous year in terms of donations, due to a large legacy received during the year. The Board is indebted to our Chief Executive who has managed to control expenditure in line with certain periods when we were below our optimum occupancy levels.
This has seen our investments grow again, though the draw-downs of capital in this and previous years will have a permanent adverse effect on our income from the Pool. The Board is well aware of various legacies without which our deficit would have been much higher.
Further we, like all care homes, are continuing to experience that local authorities will only fund a resident when he or she has advanced dementia or particularly poor physical frailty. Also local authorities are often unwilling to bear the whole cost of care as their own budgets are capped.
Whilst there must be concern about our past operating deficits, the Board considers that it is manageable and does not threaten the continuing activities of the Charity.
b. Investment performance
As stated, the funds of the Charity are mainly invested in a pooled investment fund with the London Sephardi Trust and managed by Walker Crips Ltd. The policy is to adopt a medium risk investment strategy. The returns this year have been satisfactory as mentioned in the following figures.
The value of the Charity's investments as at 1 November 2020 is £866,399 (2019: £1,104,553). There was a capital withdrawal of £150,000 the year (2019: £Nil).
c. Going concern
As explained in note 22, the company has ceased trading since the balance sheet date. The financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than that of a going concern which includes, where appropriate, writing down the company’s assets to net realisable value. Provision has also been made for any contractual commitments that have become onerous at the balance sheet date. The financial statements do not include any provision for the future costs of terminating the business of the company except to the extent that such costs were committed at the balance sheet date.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2020
d. Controls
The Treasurer reviews the financial performance and cash flow of the Charity on an ongoing basis, together with the Accounts Manager. The Board of Directors is regularly updated with current financial reports which show actual income and expenditure against budget to date. Close scrutiny is made of all items with significant variances to determine the appropriate management action.
e. Fundraising and sources of income
Given the financial demands on the Charity and the ever increasing cost of providing care and support, the Charity is fortunate to receive a small annual amount from donations and a significant amount of income from its investments with the London Sephardi Trust and is grateful for the generosity and interest in the Home given by the Friends of Choice House.
f. Reserves policy
The unrestricted funds arise from past operating results, but also include the long leasehold property of Choice House and Choice Court as well as other investments. We have instant or relatively quick access to funds in the Pool investment which can be released by special arrangement at short notice. This and the collection of charges due from residents is more than adequate in the opinion of the Board of Directors to meet the foreseeable contractual obligations to staff and provision of care to residents and tenants.
It is the long-term aim of the Board of Trustees to maintain the reserves to a level that will allow the Charity to continue its aim of providing care for the elderly.
g. Investment policy
The capital of the Home is invested under a pooling arrangement with the London Sephardi Trust which is a limited company which looks after the pooled funds of not only the Charity but also the Spanish and Portuguese Jews’ Congregation’s own capital, the Welfare Board and a variety of smaller charitable funds. One member of the Board of Jewish Choice is a permanent member of the board of the London Sephardi Trust. Funds are withdrawn or invested with this Trust on 31 October of each year, though major withdrawals or additions can be made at other times by special arrangement. Other funds of the Charity are invested in deposit accounts with the Charity's bank.
h. Risk management
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which Jewish Choice is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the Charity and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to major risks.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2020
i. Care for the elderly
The Charity is aware of the inherent risks involved in caring for the elderly and reviews are made frequently to see if risks can be minimised. Of particular concern is the continuing risk of terrorism. As the Charity shares the same site as the Synagogue, clearly there is a requirement for enhanced and consequently more expensive security. All senior members of staff have received training from the Community Security Trust (CST) and CST are linked into our CCTV system. The Charity works closely with the local police, the fire department and the local authority as well as the Spanish and Portuguese Jews' Congregation.
A considerable amount of time has been spent by the Board of Directors in considering the future of the Charity. As stated in the previous year’s report Choice House is in need of a complete refurbishment. The Board has been advised that before long it may not meet modern compulsory requirements.
The options which were open to the Charity as stated in the previous report and remain open are: -
-
Refurbish the existing premises.
-
Redevelop the existing premises.
-
Sell the site of the existing premises and move towards the Elstree and Borehamwood area.
The Board have brought in outside professional expertise to assist but to date we have not been able to move the third option along. This was due in part to the failure of Hertsmere Council to open their planning consultation. We are looking at all options and we are grateful to Gina Riese for her work in this area.
Structure, governance and management
a. Constitution
The Spanish and Portuguese Jews Home for the Aged is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Trust deed.
b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees
The management of the charitable company is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Trust deed.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE SPANISH AND PORTUGUESE JEWS HOME FOR THE AGED
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of The Spanish and Portuguese Jews Home for the Aged (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 October 2020 which comprise the Statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 October 2020 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Emphasis of matter - financial statements prepared on a basis other than going concern
We draw attention to note 2.2 and note 26 in the financial statements, which explains that the directors intend to cease trading and therefore do not consider it to be appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. Accordingly the financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than that as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Other information
The Trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
-
the information given in the Trustees' report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements.
-
the Trustees' report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees' report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of Trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
-
the Trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies' exemptions in preparing the Trustees' report and from the requirement to prepare a Strategic report.

Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the trustees' responsibilities statement, the Trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and its members, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

2. Accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.4 Income
All income was recognised once the charitable company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Fees from residents and local authorities for accommodation and care services are recognised on a receivable basis. Any payments made in advance by clients at the year end are included within creditors.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the Charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the Charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the charitable company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
2.6 Government grants
Grants of a revenue nature are recognised in the profit and loss account in the same period as the related expenditure.
2.7 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following bases:
Land and buildings - Over the lease term Motor vehicles - 20% straight line basis - Fixtures and fittings 20% straight line basis
2.8 Investments
Investments represent a share of a Common Investment Fund and are held within fixed assets. The fund includes listed investments, which are stated at mid-market value at the year end, as well as a portfolio of freehold properties.

2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.10 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the charitable company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
2.11 Financial instruments
The charitable company has elected to apply Sections 11 and 12 of FRS 102 in respect of financial instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the charitable company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial liabilities are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into.
The charitable company’s policies for its major classes of financial assets and financial liabilities are set out below.
Financial assets
Basic financial assets, including trade and other debtors, cash and bank balances, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Financing transactions are those in which payment is deferred beyond normal business terms or is financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate.
Such assets are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.
Financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors and bank loans, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Financing transactions are those in which payment is deferred beyond normal business terms or is financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

2. Accounting policies (continued)
Financial instruments (continued)
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
For financial assets measured at cost less impairment, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the best estimate of the amount the company would receive for the asset if it were to be sold at the reporting date.
For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. If the financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective interest rate determined under the contract.
If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities
Financial assets are derecognised when (a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or (b) substantially all the risks and rewards of the ownership of the asset are transferred to another party or (c) despite having retained some significant risks and rewards of ownership, control of the asset has been transferred to another party who has the practical ability to unilaterally sell the asset to an unrelated third party without imposing additional restrictions.
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the liability is extinguished, that is when the contractual obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires.
Offsetting of financial assets and financial liabilities
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is an enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
2.12 Pensions
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.13 Employee benefits
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charitable company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee to provide termination benefits.
2.14 Leases
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessees. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
Assets held under finance leases are recognised as assets at the lower of the assets fair value at the date of inception and the present value of the minimum lease payments. The related liability is included in the balance sheet as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are treated as consisting of capital and interest elements. The interest is charged to net income/(expenditure) for the year so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. The charitable company had no finance leases for the period under review.
Rentals payable under operating leases, including any lease incentives received, are charged to income on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease.

3. Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement
In the application of the Charity’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
Impairment of trade debtors
The charity reviews trade receivable balances for impairment and this is performed on a regular basis. Those balances which are considered to be recoverable remain in receivables and those which are not, are impaired and the impairment loss is recorded in the income statement. In making this judgement, the charity evaluates, among other factors, the duration and the financial health of and short-term business outlook for the trade receivables, including factors such as industry and sector performance. The accounting policy of trade debtors is described in note 2.11. At the year end the carrying amount of trade debtors is stated in note 14.
Useful lives of tangible fixed asset s
The cost of tangible fixed assets is depreciated over its estimated useful economic life. Management estimates the useful lives of this tangible assets to vary. Changes in the expected level of usage and technological developments could impact on the useful economic lives and the residual values of these assets; therefore, future depreciation charges could be revised. The accounting policy of tangible fixed assets is described in note 2.7. The carrying amount of the company’s tangible fixed assets in the balance sheet is disclosed in note 12 of the financial statements.

26. Post balance sheet events
In December 2020, the Trustees took the decision to proceed with the closure of the care home, the warden assisted accommodation units and the day centre. At the date of reporting, the closure programme was almost complete. The Trustees estimate that the overall cost of winding down and closing the home will be approximately £250,000. The costs of closure include redundancy costs for carers, administrative and management staff, the losses arising on the disposal of fixtures, fittings and other fixed assets, and the costs of placing residents at other care homes.
A restriction in the terms of the lease for Choice House and Choice Court stipulates that the property must be used for care home activities with the provision that the lease be surrendered to the Freeholder, S&P Synagogue, if this activity ceases. The Trustees are therefore of the opinion that the value of the leasehold interest in the property should be written down to £1 in the subsequent accounting period.
