Advance the Jewish religion in Mill Hill East for the benefit of the public through the holding of prayer meetings, lectures and public celebration of religious festivals to enlighten others about the Jewish religion. ## **Achievements and Performance** Chabad Mill Hill East has experienced a year of significant growth and momentum, marked most notably by the securing of a permanent site for the Chabad Centre. This milestone represents a pivotal achievement for the community, made possible through the collective support and commitment of local families and supporters who came together to help bring this vision to life. The establishment of a centre in a prominent and accessible location has already had a profound impact. It has attracted many new individuals and families, significantly increasing interest, engagement, and meaningful connections within the community. The presence of a physical home has strengthened Chabad’s role as a hub for Jewish and local community life, creating a welcoming space where people can gather, connect, and participate. As a direct result, community programming has expanded, with attendance growing steadily across events and initiatives. Established outreach efforts have continued to thrive, including regular engagement with residents at local care homes and ongoing involvement with Jewish Blind and Disabled housing, ensuring that all members of the community feel supported and included. ## **Future Plans** Looking ahead, Chabad Mill Hill East is committed to building on this strong foundation with a clear focus on quality. The emphasis will be on strengthening and enhancing existing programs, investing in their depth, consistency, and overall experience to ensure they continue to inspire and engage the community at the highest level. Alongside this, there are plans to gradually introduce new initiatives that respond to the evolving needs of the community. These include the development of regular Shabbat Kiddush gatherings to further enhance communal connection, monthly visits to the new Jewish Blind and Disabled centre in the area, and the introduction of weekly adult educational workshops. Expanded programming for children and families is also a priority, with a focus on creating meaningful, engaging, and accessible Jewish experiences. In addition, there are plans to develop the centre as a more informal gathering space for the community, including offering Judaica items for sale and creating a welcoming environment where people can drop in for a coffee and cake, connect, and spend time together in a relaxed setting. 4 Through a balanced approach of refining what already exists while thoughtfully introducing new opportunities, Chabad Mill Hill East aims to continue growing as a central hub for Jewish life, fostering connection, learning, and a strong sense of belonging for all who walk through its doors. ## **Structure, Governance & Management** ## **Governing document** Chabad Mill Hill East is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) constituted under a Constitution Incorporated 22 July 2021 and is registered charity number 1195262 ## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** The appointment of new trustees is at the discretion of the serving trustees.
