CHABAD LUBAVITCH LEICESTER (‘The Charity’) TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continued) YEAR ENDING 28 FEBRUARY 2021
• Kosher pantry, the only local source for a variety of Kosher food went online. To ensure covid compliance there was ‘porch pick up’ or a free delivery service for those who were shielding or housebound. This was made possible by the Charity’s volunteers. Due to national travel restrictions, there was a need to expand the Kosher Pantry range and stock level. The increased demand necessitated further storage. With a grant from the National Lottery and others, the Charity installed a walk-in freezer, which enabled bulk purchase and ensured steady stock.
• Many hours were spent on the phone providing counselling, supporting people, crisis management and signposting people to relevant medical services.
-
The Charity continued to provide support for students online and with Care packages.
-
Volunteers continued to engage the youth with weekly clubs and online classes in expanding their knowledge of their heritage.
• The feedback from the community have received has been positive and many people have expressed their support due to the benefit they are receiving from our work.
Chabad Lubavitch Leicester continues to be funded from charitable donations and grants. Our education services are free and service the full range of ages including primary school children, university students, young professionals, the retired and the elderly.
The Trustees are grateful for the many hours volunteers have spent working with us over the pandemic. Without their contribution of time, energy and expertise the Charity would not have been able to accomplish what we did over the past year.
Future Plans
The trustee's plans for the future will continue to maintain and build upon the education and provision of Cultural and Historic Jewish Heritage Leicestershire in surrounding areas., including a return to in person events.
Financial review
The policy of the Charity continues to be to seek additional finance and support to enable it to continue and expand its objectives and activities. The Charity’s main sources of income are from donations and grants received from charitable trusts. In 2020-21, the fundraising objectives were met. The Trustees are grateful to all the benefactors whose generous contributions remain an important element in the ability of the charity to continue its work. We are confident that our supporters will provide us with contributions at a level to support the objects of the charity.
Reserves policy
The charity's reserves policy is to maintain sufficient reserves to enable the charity to continue its activities and services at a meaningful level, should there be a drop in income. The trustees review this position on a regular basis.

CHABAD LUBAVITCH LEICESTER ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND TRUSTEES REPORT NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2021
1. Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of preparation and assessment of going concern
The legal form and address of the CIO are presented in the CIO information on page 2.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value. Financial amounts are presented to the nearest £ which is the functional and presentation currency of the CIO. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the second edition of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
The CIO constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the CIO’s ability to continue as a going concern.
(b) Income
Income is recognised when the CIO has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from the operation of a Kosher pantry is recognised when goods are sold and handed over to customers.
Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the CIO is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the CIO that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution.
