FRIENDS OF SANZ INSTITUTIONS TRUST

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2020

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 November 2020. 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 charity's objects are the relief of poverty, to advance the religion of Jewish faith in accordance with Orthodox practice, to advance Orthodox Jewish education, and such other charitable purpose as the trustees see fit and are recognised by the law of England and Wales as charitable.

Significant activities

During the year under review, the charity provided grants to various charitable institutions to achieve it's objective of promoting orthodox Jewish faith for public benefit as well as other charitable purposes.

Public benefit

The Trustees confirm their compliance with the duty to have due regard to the Public Benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission when reviewing the Charity's aims and objectives in planning future activities.

Grantmaking

Grants are made to charitable institutions, organisations and authorised individuals which accord with the objects of the charity.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

During the year under review the charity raised substantial funds and has spent almost all of the funds raised in the furtherance of its objectives.

During the year under review the charity received generous donations amounting to £665,214 (2019: £829,534) and paid donations amounting to £616,129 (2019: £793,188).

Investment performance

Investment income from the charity's investment property was £73,115 which is similar to last year's income (2019: £69,010).

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Principal funding sources

The charity is dependent on the investment income and generous donation from the donors.

Investment policy and objectives

Under the Trust Deed the charity has the power to make any investment which the trustees see fit. The trustees regularly review the charity's position and needs in respect of the investment policy. The trustees believe their experience within the UK investment property market, together with external advice as appropriate, will maximise the charity's income from its investments.

Reserves policy

It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the free reserves of the charity, at a level which the trustees think appropriate after considering the future commitments of the charity and the likely administrative costs of the charity for the next year.

Going concern

The trustees are confident that the unrestricted funds at its disposal as at 31 November 2018 together with income secured on investment property are adequate to meet the operating and financial obligations for the next twelve month.

FUTURE PLANS

The trustees will continue to pursue the charity's objective by providing grant to institutions whose objective closely aligns with it's own.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF FRIENDS OF SANZ INSTITUTIONS TRUST

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Friends of Sanz Institutions Trust

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Friends of Sanz Institutions Trust (the Trust) for the year ended 30 November 2020.

Responsibilities and basis of report

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 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of A. C. A which is one of the listed bodies.

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

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

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

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2020

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.

Investment property

Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities.

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.
