Trustee SelecIon Methods
Trustees are known as Management CommiZee members and are elected by the members of Kehillah North London at its Annual General MeeTng, either by consent or show of hands if unopposed or otherwise by secret ballot, or are co-opted during the year.

We conTnue to monitor and review this situaTon, and together with the Rabbi we are looking into what kinds of more formal training may be helpful.

Statutory DeclaraIon on Public Benefit
The trustees declare that they have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Charity Commission in exercising their powers or duTes.
Kehillah North London's acTviTes are of benefit to Jewish adults, children and families who are interested in being part of a Liberal Jewish community in inner north London. Our acTviTes are open to everyone (unless occasionally restricted to members only, for reasons of safety and security) including members and non-members of Kehillah North London, people who are Jewish and people who are not Jewish.

ExecuIve Summary
Our community has conTnued to develop, grow and learn over the last calendar year. Rabbi Leah Jordan has now been our Rabbi for over two years, and her role has recently been increased from 45% to 50% of full Tme. As well as conTnuing to meet for two shabbat morning services a month, one Friday night service, and all major [and not so major] fesTvals, we have also had two large external facing events this year. The first was held in October 2021, which was Rabbi Leah’s formal inauguraTon shabbat morning service with us, and the second was held in June 2022 where we celebrated the 20[th] anniversary of the community. Both events were great successes, well aZended by our community members, and we were also honoured to welcome various leaders from Liberal Judaism, and local community and poliTcal leaders [including from local ChrisTan, Muslim, Kurdish communiTes, as well as local councillors, mayors, and Member of Parliament].
Several of our volunteer teams are now well established, parTcularly the service leadership team, the racial jusTce group, the chesed team and our warden group [which has welcomed some new members which was much needed]. There is more work to do in some other areas of the community, parTcularly with regards to children’s acTviTes, where it would be helpful to have more volunteer commitment than we currently have. We have recently appointed a new cheder teacher and have plans to expand and further establish the cheder in the coming year.
Our finances remain in an adequate posiTon, in large part thanks to a successful Kol Nidre appeal, a growing membership, and donaTons from simchas [parTcularly weddings and bnei mitzvah], as well as the leadership provided by our treasurer Ben Austrin-Willis and administrator Ashleigh Loeb in overseeing our finances. However it is also necessary to note that our outgoings are also increasing, in parTcular with regards to the money we spend on salaries [Rabbinic, administrator, and cheder teacher] and we are noTcing the impact of inflaTon on some of our other expenses. The need for addiTonal fundraising remains paramount to ensure our financial stability.
We are proud of our achievements over the last calendar year, and as well as our goals for furthering relaTonships within the community, we would also like to strengthen our relaTonships to other local communiTes and with Liberal Judaism more widely. We are planning to elect a co-chair, in part, to help provide leadership over this area.
We look forward with confidence, opTmism and ambiTon to our next year.

AcIviIes, Achievements & Performance
Rabbi and Chair’s Report
I’ve been with Kehillah for two years now! I started with you in the Shavuot (June 2020) of the pandemic, and it’s now just gone Shavuot 2022… And what a two years it’s been. A period of upheaval and endurance for all of us, and also a lot of learning and growth for us as a Kehillah and for each of us individually, as the experience of the pandemic has demanded so much individual resilience from us – and invited us to pracTse kindness and compassion for each other – and for ourselves. May we not forget these lessons going forward.
We have grown as a community – both in numbers and in connecTons – but the last two years of fear, lockdowns, and struggle has also estranged us from each other, someTmes simply because we couldn’t be physically together.
This next year is about ‘reknimng the community’, encountering each other – regrowing our cheder and reinsTtuTng ‘Come Shabbes With Me’ Shabbat dinners in people’s homes. We need to meet each other again. And get to know each other again.
The High Holidays team has started planning – and we agreed that this year’s theme should be ‘Healing through connecTng.’ We could all use a liZle of that this coming year. Healing through connecTon.
And now, aner two years with Kehillah, may I call myself a Kehillah-nik? I really hope so. I’ve so loved becoming part of the community and meeTng so many of you, one on one and at various services, fesTvals and events.
If you and I haven’t had a chance to connect yet, now is the Tme! Please do arrange a Tme with me to get a tea or coffee together. We can meet somewhere in London, at your place, or on Zoom, whatever is best for you.
Since last summer – we have done so much as a community. We weathered a second, hard pandemic winter, with Omicron spikes and illness, to finally come into a summer filled with promise, for beauTful outdoors community events and hybrid Shabbat morning services, learning and more. But it is also a hard summer in some ways – I think because we were all looking forward to a ‘return to normal,’ but it’s really hard to find normal aner two years of abnormality… Be kind to yourself and each other. We are healing.
In the community, we recently finished a really exciTng 5-week class, joint with our closest Jewish neighbours, New Stoke Newington Shul, on the Talmud, asking the big quesTons: Are there limits to who we can be in community with? How do we deal with real difference of opinion and difference in ways of living? QuesTons that feel especially relevant, first of all, to learn with fellow Jews in our patch, who may pracTse and think differently from us, and in a larger world that feels more divisive than at any Tme in recent memory…
And our Cheder and young people’s provision, thanks to our parents, and the hard work of our outgoing cheder teacher Ruth Hart – and our new cheder teacher, Naomi – and our creche coordinator Anna McKone, is growing and re-integraTng aner the last two years of on-again, off-again, stop and start educaTon for our young people in their school lives…
As we speak, we’re invesTng more resources in our cheder, and we believe it’s going to get bigger and beZer over the next year, as we rebuild it. So now is the Tme to join us – every Saturday starTng from September (typically first and third of the month) when we meet for services in our home at St. Mary’s Centre. We don’t just have cheder but a creche as well.
And our Racial and Climate JusTce Groups have been busy, planning events on climate acTvism, racial jusTce and Israel in the community this summer. We heard from Yehuda Shaul, a former IDF soldier and

co-founder of Israeli human rights organisaTon Breaking the Silence. Then we had a conversaTon at our home here in St. Mary’s Centre with Rabbi Danny Rich and local Stoke Newington Hebrew teacher Matan Rosentrauch on a proposal that has come to us at Kehillah from the Balfour Project: would we as a community be interested in twinning with the PalesTnian communiTes of Massafer YaZa, in the South Hebron Hills, West Bank? And I’ve been meeTng with many of you, to hear how you feel about this – some are excited, some are more trepidaTous or have told me that’s not something we should spend energy on right now. And I understand all these concerns. We are listening very hard. We just launched a listening and feedback process to see where everyone is at – please do look out for that email to ask you, if you want, for your views. I’m also meeTng with members to plan an event to celebrate Hebrew culture and other perspecTves on Israel. And we were the first community to host a community screening of the film ‘Can I Live?’, with a Q&A with the creator no less, on the intersecTon of racial and climate jusTce.
Along with all these events, our Shabbat morning services, upcoming b’nei mitzvah — for both young people and adults in the community – and a season of weddings, and our pastoral care, our educaTon for young people and adults, and so much more, there is so much happening at Kehillah.
And that doesn’t even include celebraTng the Kehillah’s 20th birthday, which was a truly wonderful gathering this past month, with music and dance and with local partner communiTes and elected leadership and past spiritual leaders of the community!
Aner our first wonderful Pesach Seder in person in three years, I’m looking forward our High Holidays back at the Unitarian church in style. And we are also looking aner the physical beauty of our community, in the process of creaTng new Torah mantles to complement our new ark, and thanks to a generous grant we are repairing the silverwork for our Torah scrolls and rebinding our prayerbooks, which will look brand new and inviTng.
And what are our goals for this coming Jewish year? As I said, reknimng the community, healing through connecTon, with both newer and older members, with Shabbat dinners, and other opportuniTes as always for us to meet one another and get to know each other, to celebrate, learn and support one another.
Do conTnue to come join us at the Kehillah, and I’m wishing you a summer of healing, connecTon and renewal.

# of New Members
----- End of picture text -----
Notes re: new members joining since 1[st] February 2021:
-
Some older members joined due to the closure of West Central Liberal Synagogue.
-
We had no new members in their 80s.
When considering all these observaTons remember: Kehillah regularly experiences ‘urban churn’, and a significant proporTon of those who stay with us only a year or two have tended to be younger adults.
Summary:
-
We are 201 people, 164 age 18+ and 37 under 18.
-
The community has grown significantly, and parIcularly in the younger adult age groups.
-
We do not hold complete age data, as we do not have birthdates for all members.

Financial Review
Statement of the Charity's Policy on Reserves
Designated Fund: OperaIonal Reserve
As a community charity, Kehillah North London has a duty of care to both its beneficiaries and the wider public to ensure that its beneficiaries are not len unsupported in the event that the charity has to cease operaTng.
Ensuring that all beneficiaries have been appropriately relocated to other chariTes providing a comparable level of care can take a period of between 6 and 12 months, i.e. potenTally longer than the Tme it would take the charity to terminate its contractual obligaTons to staff and other service providers.
The Trustees have therefore determined that the charity should hold an operaTonal reserve equivalent to the normal costs of running the charity for up to 9 months, i.e. 75% of £40,000 = £30,000.
This reserve meanwhile funcTons as a cushion against the possible effects of unforeseeable surges in running costs.
Details of Any Funds Materially in Deficit
The Trustees declare that the charity had no funds which were materially in deficit at the date of the statement of assets & liabiliTes.
State of the Charity’s Finances
There is a surplus of just over £6,000 (compared to just over £9,500 in 2020, just under £2,500 in 2019, and just over £2,000 in 2018).
There was a significant one-Tme expense for the manufacture of a beauTful ark for the Torah. Such a large one-Tme expense is not anTcipated to recur. The cost of renTng space from St. Mary’s Church has increased, as has the cost of prinTng due to inflaTon.
By approval of the Management CommiZee on 30 May, 2022, Rabbi Leah’s salary has increased to £27,633.50.
Beginning in 2023, we anTcipate increasing our CongregaTonal AffiliaTon Fee (CAF) contribuTon up to the level at which all other established Liberal Judaism communiTes pay.
Constant year-on-year growth in membership led to a slight growth in fee income. Membership fees increased in February 2022 aner remaining constant for several years. Since much of this year’s membership growth resulted from the closing of West Central Liberal Synagogue, we cannot depend on consistent growth again next year. We conTnue to offer some services online following reopening “post-COVID,” but some members have nevertheless chosen to leave the community. Some non-members (including SupporTng Friends and former members) conTnue to receive our enewsleZer.
However, we anTcipate a small increase in FY2022 of income from weddings and other simchas, as well as from the annual Kol Nidre appeal. We are beginning to hold more events where people can easily donate, especially since we have acquired a Square card reader. A fundraising commiZee is in the works.
9
Kehillah North London Trustees' Annual Report & Financial Statements for Financial Period 1[st] February 2021 – 31[st] January 2022
Though the surplus will reduce the amount by which we may need to dig into reserves, it would nevertheless be prudent to increase membership fees in FY2023. We also anTcipate increasing fundraising acTviTes to diversify our income streams.
Restricted Funds
-
We operate a Burials Scheme, to which members voluntarily contribute. Their estates benefit from either a plot in a Jewish Cemetery or a cremaTon (via a central scheme administered by Liberal Judaism, for which the contribuTons are collected by us and passed to LJ) plus the cost of a basic funeral (paid for out of a fund accrued from an addiTonal fixed contribuTon from its members). We have not yet idenTfied an actuary, although we are confident the scheme is in good health, and we have a member who is able to carry out a more formal assessment.
-
Each year during High Holidays we collect charitable donaTons. We usually designate another charity as the recipient of either all or part of the collecTon, and each donor designates the proporTon they wish to be assigned to each beneficiary.
ParIculars of Any Outstanding Guarantee Given by the Charity
The Trustees declare that the charity has given no guarantee where potenTal liability is outstanding at the date of the statement of assets & liabiliTes.
ParIculars of Any Outstanding Debt
The Trustees declare that the charity has no outstanding debts which are secured by an express charge on any of the assets of the charity at the date of the statement of assets & liabiliTes.
DeclaraIon and signature
The Trustees declare that they have approved the above report and authorised that it be signed on their behalf.
