Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 31 August 2024

Policies on reserves.

The trustees always wish to retain income to provide for unforeseen contingencies and the amounts retained will fluctuate from year to year.

The amount of distributions made in any period will take into account the necessity to have these reserves available in accordance with the Trustees policy.

The amount of reserves to be held is reviewed annually.

Going Concern

The trustees consider that the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue and that there are no material uncertainties due to the discretion in making grants and maintaining adequate reserves.

Availability and adequacy of assets of each of the funds

The board of trustees is satisfied that the charity's assets are available and adequate to fulfil its obligations in respect of each fund.

The major risks to which the Charity is exposed and reviews and systems to mitigate them.

The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the Trust. These risks include macro economic factors governing the whole economy that could expose tenants and thereby put value of the investment properties at risk with the associated knock on effect with lenders covenants. Additionally, the charity may be exposed to interest rate increases with reference to loans and their repayment.

The trustees examine the major risks that the charitable trust faces each financial year when preparing and updating its budget. The Charity has developed systems to monitor and control these risks to mitigate any impact that they may have on the charity's future.

Notwithstanding the explicit requirement in the extant statutory regulations,the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the SORP 2005, in view of the fact that the SORP 2005 has been withdrawn, the Trustees determined to interpret this responsibility as requiring them to follow current best practice and prepare the accounts according to the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), .

Machzikei Hadass Communities Group

Independent Auditors' Report to the Trustees of the charity on the consolidated group accounts for the year ended 31 August 2024

Introduction

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Machzikei Hadass Communities Group for the year ended 31 August 2024, as set out on pages 12 to 26, which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Income and Expenditure Account, the Statement of Recognised Gains and Losses , the Balance Sheet and the related notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements of the charitable group are prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with charity law applicable within the jurisdiction of England & Wales and, in particular, the accounts have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , effective January 2016, under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the accounting policies set out on page 19, which framework constitutes the applicable United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

Limitation of liability

This report is made solely to the Trustees of the charitable group, as a body, in accordance with the requirements of Section 154 of the Charities Act 2011 (The Act). Our work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an Auditor's Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume liability or responsibility to anyone other than the Trustees as a body, for our work, for this report or for the opinions we have formed.

Basis for our opinion

We have been appointed as auditors under section 144(2) of The Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act.

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs-UK), issued by the Financial Reporting Council, and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in England & Wales, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements

As described on page 6, you, the charitable group's Trustees, are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the charitable group in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 and all other applicable law and with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practiceand for being satisfied that the financial statements give a true and fair view.

The Trustees,who are charged with governance, are responsible for overseeing the charitable group’s financial reporting process.

Management is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with charity law of the jurisdiction of England & Wales and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

8

Machzikei Hadass Communities Group

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs-UK will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Our responsibility is to audit and express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements in accordance with relevant legal and regulatory requirements and ISAs-UK. Those standards require us to comply with the Ethical Standards for Auditors published by the Financial Reporting Council and to:-

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, to design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks and to obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion;

To obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate for the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion of the effectiveness of the charity's internal control;

To evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the charity;

To conclude on the appropriateness of the charity's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern;

To evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves a fair presentation.

Obtain sufficient appropriate evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the group to express an opinion on the group financial statements;

We are required to report to the Trustees our opinion as to whether the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view and have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice and the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008.

We are also required to report to you if, in our opinion, the Trustees' Annual Report is materially inconsistent with the financial statements, if the charity has not kept adequate accounting records, if the charity’s financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns, or if we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit, or if information specified by law regarding Trustees' remuneration and transactions with the charity is not disclosed.

In addition, we read all the financial and non-financial information in the Trustees' Annual Report to identify material inconsistencies with the audited financial statements and to identify any information that is apparently materially incorrect based on, or materially inconsistent with, the knowledge acquired by us in the course of performing the audit. If we become aware of any apparent material misstatements or inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report.

We conducted our audit in accordance with ISAs-UK and in accordance with the Practice Note ' The Audit of Charities in the United Kingdom' , revised in March 2012.

We are required to plan and perform our audit so as to meet the above requirements and to obtain all the information and explanations which we consider necessary in order to provide us with sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or other irregularity or error.

In the course of our audit, we communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during the audit.

We confirm that we are eligible under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 to conduct this audit, and that this report is a report in respect of an audit carried out under the Act and in accordance with the related regulations.

Attention is drawn to the accounting policy stating that, notwithstanding the explicit requirement in the extant statutory regulations, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the SORP 2005, in view of the fact that the SORP 2005 has been withdrawn, and in order to accord with current best practice, the Trustees have determined to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), . We concur with this approach, and any references in our report to the regulations should be read subject to this comment.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

In accordance with Regulations 25(g) and (h) of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, in our opinion the charity's financial statements:

Give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable group as at 31 August 2024 and of its Income and Expenditure for the financial year then ended and, in particular, the financial statements have been properly prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice applicable to entities of its size and have been properly prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011; and

Machzikei Hadass Communities Group

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you, if in our opinion:

the charitable group has not kept adequate accounting records; or

the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or

if information specified by law regarding Trustees' remuneration and transactions with the charity is not disclosed.

we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 August 2024

Policies relating to the production of the accounts.

Basis of preparation and accounting convention

The accounts have been prepared on the accruals basis, under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) and 'FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , effective January 2016, , and in accordance with all applicable law in the charity's jurisdiction of registration, except that the charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP), in preference to the previous SORP, the SORP 2005, which has been withdrawn, notwithstanding the fact that the extant statutory regulations, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 refer explicitly to the SORP 2005. This has been done to accord with current best practice.

Control of Group

The parent charity has concluded that control exists over its subsidiaries.

Going Concern

The charitable activities are entirely dependent on continuing grant aid and voluntary donations as well as trading revenues. As a consequence, the going concern basis is dependent on the future flow of these funding streams. Accordingly, the Trustees have obtained forecasts and, after reviewing the financial forecasts for future periods to 31st August 2025, the Trustees are satisfied that, at the time of approving the financial statements, it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Other than these matters, the Trustees are not aware of any material uncertainites about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.

Risks and future assumptions

The charity is a public benefit entity.

19

Machzikei Hadass Communities Group

Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 August 2024

Policies relating to categories of income and income recognition.

Nature of income

Gross income represents the value, net of value added tax and discounts, of goods provided to customers and work carried out in respect of services provided to customers.

Categories of Income

Income is categorised as income from exchange transactions (contract income) and income from non-exchange transactions (gifts), investment income and other income.

Income from exchange transactions is received by the charity for goods or services supplied under contract or where entitlement is subject to fulfilling performance related conditions. The income the charity receives is approximately equal in value to the goods or services supplied by the charity to the purchaser.

Income from a non-exchange transaction is where the charity receives value from the donor without providing equal value in exchange, and includes donations of money, goods and services freely given without giving equal value in exchange.

Income recognition

Income, whether from exchange or non exchange transactions, is recognised in the statement of financial activities (SOFA) on a receivable basis, when a transaction or other event results in an increase in the charity’s assets or a reduction in its liabilities and only when the charity has legal entitlement, the income is probable and can be measured reliably.

Dividends are accrued when the shareholder’s right to receive payment is established.

Income subject to terms and conditions which must be met before the charity is entitled to the resources is not recognised until the conditions have been met.

All income is accounted for gross, before deducting any related fees or costs.

Gift Aid Donations from subsidiaries

FRS 102 requires gift aid payments from subsidiaries to be accounted for consistently with dividends. FRS 102 requires dividends to be recognised when the shareholder’s right to receive payment is established. The parent charity’s right to receive payment is established when the subsidiary has a legal obligation to distribute its profits to its owners at the reporting date. Therefore, the gift aid payment is not accrued in these individual accounts of the parent charity unless a legal obligation for the subsidiary to make the payment exists at the reporting date.

Policies relating to expenditure on goods and services provided to the charity.

Policies relating to assets, liabilities and provisions and other matters.

Fixed Asset Investments

Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds, investment properties and similar investments are shown initially at cost upon acquisition and at their market value at the balance sheet date at the end of the financial period. Investment properties are not depreciated.

Fixed asset investments in unlisted equities are shown at the balance sheet date at the best estimate of their market value, where practicable. Where valuation techniques are considered unreliable or where, in the opinion of the trustees, the costs outweigh the benefits to the users of the accounts, the investment is included at cost, and a review is undertaken at each year end as to whether the asset should be written down.

All gains on fixed asset investments, whether realised or unrealised, are included in row B4 of the Statement of Financial Activities.

20

Machzikei Hadass Communities Group

Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 August 2024

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are measured at their original cost value, or subsequent revaluation, or if donated, as described above. Cost value includes all costs expended in bringing the asset into its intended working condition.

Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets to their anticipated residual value over their estimated useful lives.

Freehold premises 0 % straight line Leasehold premises 2 % straight line Plant and machinery 20 % straight line Motor vehicles 20 % straight line

A regular annual review of the likelihood of asset impairment is undertaken.

No depreciation is provided on freehold property and improvements because it is the practice to maintain the property in a continual state of sound repair. Accordingly, the life is so long and the residual value so high that the Trustees consider that depreciation calculated in accordance with accepted accounting standards would be immaterial.

Debtors

Debtors are measured at their recoverable amounts at the balance sheet date.

Fund Accounting

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the Trustees for particular purposes.

Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal or as implied by law.

There are no endowment funds.

2 Liability to taxation

The Trustees consider that the charity satisfies the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by chapter 3 part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively on the specific charitable objects of the charity and for no other purpose.

3 Winding up or dissolution of the charity

If upon winding up or dissolution of the charity there remain any assets, after the satisfaction of all debts and liabilities, the assets represented by the accumulated fund shall be transferred to some other charitable body or bodies having similar objects to the charity.
