Company Limited by Guarantee
Trustees' Annual Report (Incorporating the Director's Report) (continued)
Year ended 31 August 2023
Objectives and activities
The charity is a registered charity (number 1175668) whose charitable objects are as follows:
Such charitable purposes for the public benefit as the Trustees may in their absolute discretion determine, and in particular for:
(a) the advancement of the Jewish faith including by increasing understanding among the public generally and members of the Jewish community in the United Kingdom in particular of Jewish religion and culture, both within and outside Israel;
(b) the advancement of education, in particular but without limitation of Jewish religious, ethical and/or secular education;
(c) the relief of poverty;
(d) the promotion of health and the relief of sickness;
(e) the relief of those in need by reason of youth or advanced age;
(f) the relief of need or suffering among refugees and persons displaced from their home or domicile by reason of hostilities, persecution, oppression, discrimination, natural disaster or other causes; and
(g) the promotion of the arts, culture and heritage, by the protection, preservation and improvement of historic buildings and monuments in Israel and elsewhere.
The trustees have paid due regard to public benefit guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake to advance the charity's objects.
The Charity is a grant-maker, and its operations consist of the consideration of charitable projects to advance its purposes for the public benefit, and the making of grants. The Charity's aims and strategies are to increase its operations, so as more effectively to advance its charitable purposes.
The Charity has adopted a formal grant-making policy, which ensures that grants are only approved by the Trustees which further the Charity's objects for the public benefit, and which attach all grants to suitable terms and conditions to ensure they are used only for the charitable purposes for which they are granted.
Achievements and performance
The Charity has not paid any grants out during the period, but it has collected further income in the year, and it is expected that further grants shall be made in future periods, in furtherance of its charitable objects.
Financial review
At the year end the charity had unrestricted funds totalling £339,527 (2022; £285,560). During the year, income of £55,278 (2022; £265,455) was received, and there was expenditure totalling £1,311 (2022; £1,293).
Principal risks and uncertainties
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the Charity, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate the exposure to the major risks, including on-going monitoring of the charities activities by the trustees.
Reserves policy
The reserves at the year end were £339,527 (2022: £285,560). This was all unrestricted funds. The charity aims to hold unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use at a level of at least six months' overhead expenditure. The Trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the Charity's current activities.
Principal funding sources and how they support key objectives
The Charity has received donations from members of the public and from charitable organisations during the period. These donations have enabled the Charity to undertake charitable grant-making for the public benefit, in furtherance of its purposes.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Keren Hayesod - United Israel Appeal UK
Year ended 31 August 2023
I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Keren Hayesod - United Israel Appeal UK ('the charity') for the year ended 31 August 2023.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the trustees of the company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act’).
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or
-
the financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
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.

Notes to the Financial Statements
Year ended 31 August 2023
1. General information
The charity is a public benefit entity and a private company limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales and a registered charity in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is Third Floor, 20 Old Bailey, London, EC4M 7AN.
2. Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the 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) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Companies Act 2006.
3. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity and rounded to the nearest £. The significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below.
Going concern
There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees to further any of the charity's purposes.
Incoming resources
All income is included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. Income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.
Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates. Expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities. Other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.
Financial instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.
Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately
4. Limited by guarantee
Each member of the charitable company undertakes to contribute to the assets of the company in the event of it being wound up while he/she is a member, or within one year after he/she ceases to be a member, such amount as may be required, not exceeding £1 for the debts and liabilities contracted before he/she ceases to be a member.
