Project Impact

The objects of the charity are to promote good citizenship of young people within the Jewish community for public benefit by inspiring and empowering them to make an impact in their community and beyond, through meaningful volunteering and social action.

During the past year the charity has run a number of social action and volunteering programmes and ad hoc events for teenagers at community centres and in partnership with a range of charities in pursuit of this objective.

These have included the following:

• Year 7/8 Bar/Bat Mitzvah Programme – range of volunteering activities linked to different charities

• Year 9/10 Impact programme – including cooking for the homeless, tutoring disadvantaged children and intergenerational volunteering

• Year 12/13 Ambassadors programme – leadership training

• Mental health and wellbeing activities

• Other Ad hoc volunteering events

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

The board of trustees of the charity manage its affairs and, for that purpose, exercise all the powers of the charity. There are a minimum of two, and a maximum of twelve trustees at any time; they are appointed for a term of three years. Meetings of the board of trustees take place regularly, and in accordance with the charity’s Constitution. Certain decisions can only be taken by resolution of its members: all trustees are members of the charity.

It is considered that all the trustees and any others who could be considered as managers within the charity are deemed to be fit and proper persons under the terms of the Finance Act 2010.

The contents and obligations of the Equality Act 2010 and GDPR 2018 are known and complied with to the best of the trustees’ ability. The trustees recognize that in respect of Risk Assessment they accept the term 'risk' includes any circumstances that may, or do, have an adverse effect, and is wider than financial matters.

They have been observing the advice given by the Charity Commission in respect of Public Benefit and are conscious of their responsibility regarding fire and accident safety. An accident book is maintained. There is a protection policy in place regarding children. Checks are made with the Disclosure and Barring Service in respect of persons dealing regularly with young people and vulnerable adults.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The financial results of the Charity are presented on pages 7 to 8.

RESERVES POLICY

Our policy is to maintain at least three months of reserves in respect of our fixed and salary cost base to ensure the on-going operations of the Charity. The board of trustees takes their obligations around working capital management seriously and reviews the reserves policy on a periodic basis to ensure this remains appropriate.

As the charity trustees of the Trust, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:

• accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Act or

• the accounts do not accord with the accounting records

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
