Report of the Trustees FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2023. 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
The objectives of the charity are the advancement of the Orthodox Jewish faith for the benefit of the public in such ways as are exclusively charitable in English law and in particular but not exclusively by providing for the religious needs, spiritual education, pastoral needs and welfare of the local community in North West London and of other members of the Jewish community.
Public benefit
The Trustees confirm they have referred to the guidelines contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning future activities and setting the grant making policies for the year.
Grantmaking
Grants are made to charitable institutions, organisations and individuals after it has been satisfied that payments will accord with the objectives of the charity.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
The charity had incoming resources of £20,046 (2022: £28,303) and charitable expenditure of £20,053 (2022: £36,470). At the balance sheet date the charity had unrestricted funds in deficit of £207 (2022: £200).
The trustees are confident in the charity's ability to raise sufficient funds to enable the charity to continue its charitable activities and the accounts have therefore been prepared on a going concern basis.
The charity aims to maintain reserves in order that it is in a position to continue its charitable activities at a consistent level and to cover contingencies of additional calls being made upon the charity for support of organisations, institutions or individuals in times of need.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity.

Notes to the Financial Statements FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
