Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 30 June 2021
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 June 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
To advance the Jewish religion, particularly in Westcliff, for the benefit of the public through the holding of prayer meetings, lectures and celebration of religious festivals.
To provide or assist in the provision of facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation or other leisure time occupation of individuals who have need of such facilities by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disability, financial hardship or social circumstances with the object of improving their conditions of life, for the public benefit.
Public benefit
The trustees confirm their compliance with the duty to have regard to the Public Benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission when reviewing the Charity's aims and objectives in planning future activities.
Social investments
In recent years, a new community of Orthodox Jewish families was established in Westcliff, comprising of Chassidim from the Belz, Viznitz, Skver, and Slonim ethnic groups. There are currently over 55 families residing in the town.
Seaquins (Westcliff) provides activities for young children aged two to seventeen and their families.
Our project users have a unique set of cultural, language (Yiddish) and religious requirements that mean very few, if any, would contact a mainstream provision. This results in them not getting the support they need.
Despite all the challenges experienced over the last year, Seaquins (Westcliff) has been able to deliver an amazing array of services and support to the Orthodox Jewish young people in Westcliff.
The majority of families within the community have no access to TV and limited access to the internet. Therefore, the community, and its local organisations, had a huge learning curve in being able to adapt to and adopt new digital styles of communications in place of the familiar face-to-face community gatherings. This in itself created huge anxiety and stress, but Seaquins (Westcliff) was able to create connections, share its knowledge, provide reassurance, as well as delivering training in new skills and in training new volunteers.
The impact of Covid-19 on the Orthodox Jewish community has been significant, including the Ultra-Orthodox Yiddish-speaking community. Families are struggling to re-adapt after the pandemic with continuing concerns about physical and mental health, family tensions and breakdowns.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
- Over 50 Young people receiving mentoring or counselling support, reporting improved resilience to stress and anxiety.
- Running weekly youth activities
o Sports activities including biking, basketball, and football
o Breakfast clubs and food/refreshments
o Therapy and music groups
These activities have helped to bring youth together to build friendships and to be physically active. It helps them to work together and to learn new skills. All of which help to reduce isolation and strengthen ties across the community.
- Family support
We have supported various families with mentoring and parenting guidance, providing advice and reassurance around family issues. We have signposted for professional support as and when required.
- Covid-19 Food Parcels
We provided 300 food parcels delivered to people's homes weekly to 15 families weekly who would otherwise be hungry. The project supported the community by making sure families got at least one good meal a day.
- Covid-19 Emotional and practical support:
We supported those who had lost their jobs due to Covid-19 or had been furloughed and were having to manage with reduced income. We also supported those who are in debt and need financial help and support. We also provided emotional support for those who were bereaved as a result of the pandemic
Internal and external factors
The trustees have made a full assessment of the internal and external factors that may affect these financial statements and do not deem any factors material enough to have an impact.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Principal funding sources
During the period we secured or maintained funding from the following institution: National Lottery - Awards for All program.
We are very grateful to these funders, and a few others who prefer to remain anonymous, for the confidence they have shown in our charity by their financial support. We are also grateful for the continued support of our private individual donors. These are too many to be listed here but their contribution is particularly welcome especially during these years of economic uncertainty, despite of which they have maintained (in some cases even increased) their support.
Reserves policy
The charity does not maintain a reserve policy, as reserves are distributed when they become available, at the trustees' discretion. The present level of funding is adequate to support the continuation of its objects and the trustees consider the financial position of the charity to be satisfactory.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
Memorandum and Articles incorporated 26 February 2020 as amended by special resolution registered at Companies House on 14 August 2020 as amended by special resolution(s) dated 23 February 2021.

Both manual and automated checks are regularly invoked, particularly those relating to the operations and finance of the charity. The trustees are satisfied that these systems and procedures manage any perceived risks.
