Trustees' Annual Report

Year ended 31 March 2024

The trustees present their report and the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2024.

Reference and administrative details

Registered charity name SUNDERLAND JEWISH BOYS HOSTEL AND TALMUDICAL COLLEGE Charity registration number 528049 Principal office Prince Consort Road Gateshead Tyne & Wear NE8 4DE The trustees G Levin M Schleider Y Mankoff Independent examiner C Frenkel FCCA

Structure, governance and management

The charity is constituted as a charitable trust and is therefore governed by a trust deed. The constitution was adopted on 25th September 1949 and amended 1st June 1949. Trustees at the start of the year were Mr Yehudo Mankoff, Mr M Schleider and Mr G Levin. Mr G Levin ceased to serve as a trustee following his passing in the year. The trustees intend to appoint a new trustee to fill the vacancy but have not yet had the opportunity to do so. This will be addressed in due course.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees would be in line with the Memorandum and Articles of Association and with the consent of the trustees. The criteria set for the suitable candidate would be someone who is sensitive to the needs and demands of the organisation.

Objectives and activities

The charity's objectives are:

1. To promote theological and Talmudical research.

2. To provide such educational facilities as will enable the students to become rabbis, minister, readers and Hebrew teachers for Jewish communities,

3. To provide scholarships during their stay at the college for such students as require it,

4. To acquire property and anything necessary for the maintenance of the institution,

5. To collect the money needed for the achievement of these aims.

In the furtherance of these charitable objects, the charity is to raise funds and invite and receive from any person or persons whatsoever by way of donation and otherwise. It also raises funds via investment income.

Trustees' Annual Report (continued)

Year ended 31 March 2024

Achievements and performance

As we reflect upon the past year, the Yeshiva is proud to present our annual report showcasing the remarkable achievements and milestones that have shaped our institution. Through unwavering commitment to excellence in education, community engagement, and spiritual development, we have continued to make significant strides in fulfilling our mission.

• A) Spiritual Development.

• B) Religious Studies Programs:

• Enriched religious studies programs to deepen students understanding of their faith and heritage.

• Hosted renowned scholars and religious leaders to provide spiritual guidance and insight.

• C) Campus Facilities:

• Upgraded and expanded campus facilities to provide a more comfortable and conducive learning environment.

• Implemented eco-friendly initiatives to contribute to sustainability efforts.

The college has continued to help necessitous students pursue their studies by means of scholarships and grants.

Looking Ahead:

As we celebrate the accomplishments of the past year, Sunderland Jewish boys’ hostel and Talmudical college remains committed to continuous improvement and the pursuit of excellence. Looking ahead, we are excited about the opportunities for further growth, collaboration, and impact on the lives of our students and the broader community.

We extend our gratitude to the entire Yeshiva community-students, faculty, staff, donors, and supporters-for their dedication and contributions to our shared success. Additionally, the charity expresses its appreciation to the CST (Community Security Trust) for its support in maintaining security at the college to enable it to operate in a safe environment.

Financial review

Donations have increased over the year by £117,443.

Direct charitable expenditure has remained approximately the same as the previous year.

Governance costs were £2,460 (2023: £1,250).

The trustees report a surplus of £111,219 during the year. This reflects the efforts of the committee and volunteers who have worked hard during the year to cover the costs of the charitable activities.

Reserves policy

The Unrestricted Fund represents the unrestricted funds arising from past operating results. It represents the full reserves of the charity. The Trustees are satisfied that the balance of the Fund is satisfactory given the nature of revenue receipts against charitable activity and other costs. The free reserves of the charity, being the net current assets of the charity, amounted to £149,196 (2023:

SUNDERLAND JEWISH BOYS HOSTEL AND TALMUDICAL COLLEGE

Trustees' Annual Report (continued)

Year ended 31 March 2024

£146,238). Total restricted reserves are £1,121,675 and total unrestricted reserves are £1,223,107 bringing the full reserves amount to £2,344,782. Funds are available to permit the charity to continue in operation in the medium to long term and to continue to fund worthwhile projects.

Public benefit

The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit and in particular to its supplementary public benefit guidance on advancing education when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning future activities and setting grant making policy for the year.

Investments

The charity invested in property syndicates during the year, the details of which can be found within the notes to the accounts.

The investments have provided a return of 9.96% which the trustees deem satisfactory.

The charity also made a short-term investment during the year, which provided a return of 4.2%. The initial capital was fully repaid along with its return shortly after the year end.

The trustees are satisfied that the investments was in the best interests of the charity and contributed to its financial sustainability.

Plans for future periods

The trustees plan to continue raising funds for projects in line with the trust deed and pursue those objectives and projects with all the resources available to the charity.

The trustees' annual report was approved on 9 January 2025 and signed on behalf of the board of trustees by:

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of SUNDERLAND JEWISH BOYS HOSTEL AND TALMUDICAL COLLEGE

Year ended 31 March 2024

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of SUNDERLAND JEWISH BOYS HOSTEL AND TALMUDICAL COLLEGE ('the charity') for the year ended 31 March 2024.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).

I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since the charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, 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 charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or

2. the financial statements do not accord with those records; or

3. the financial statements 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.

SUNDERLAND JEWISH BOYS HOSTEL AND TALMUDICAL COLLEGE

Notes to the Financial Statements

Year ended 31 March 2024

1. General information

The charity is a public benefit entity and a registered charity in England and Wales and is unincorporated. The address of the principal office is Prince Consort Road, Gateshead, Tyne & Wear, NE8 4DE.

2. Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the 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) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Charities Act 2011.

3. Accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.

Going concern

There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.

Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees to further any of the charity's purposes.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular future project or

commitment.

Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure declared by the donor or through the terms of an appeal, and fall into one of two sub-classes: restricted income funds or endowment funds.

Year ended 31 March 2024

3. Accounting policies (continued)

Incoming resources

All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity; it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:

• income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.

• legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established.

• income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless this is impractical to measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated resale value. Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts when received if the value can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers.

• income from contracts for the supply of services is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent, in which case it may be regarded as restricted.

Resources expended

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:

• expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, non-charitable trading activities, and the sale of donated goods.

• expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.

• other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.

All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.

Tangible assets

Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

SUNDERLAND JEWISH BOYS HOSTEL AND TALMUDICAL COLLEGE

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

Year ended 31 March 2024

3. Accounting policies (continued)

Tangible assets (continued)

An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, unless it reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been recognised as expenditure within the statement of financial activities. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, except to which it offsets any previous revaluation gain, in which case the loss is shown within other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activities.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:

Fixtures and fittings

• 20% reducing balance

Investments

Unlisted equity investments are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently measured at fair value. If fair value cannot be reliably measured, assets are measured at cost less impairment.

Listed investments are measured at fair value with changes in fair value being recognised in income or expenditure.

Investment property

Investment property is initially recorded at cost, which includes purchase price and any directly attributable expenditure.

Investment property is revalued to its fair value at each reporting date and any changes in fair value are recognised in income or expenditure.

If a reliable measure of fair value is no longer available without undue cost or effort for an item of investment property, it shall be transferred to tangible assets and treated as such until it is expected that fair value will be reliably measurable on an on-going basis.

Investments in associates

Investments in associates accounted for in accordance with the cost model are recorded at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

Investments in associates accounted for in accordance with the fair value model are initially recorded at the transaction price. At each reporting date, the investments are measured at fair value, with changes in fair value taken through income or expenditure. Where it is impracticable to measure fair value reliably without undue cost or effort, the cost model will be adopted.

Dividends and other distributions received from the investment are recognised as income without regard to whether the distributions are from accumulated profits of the associate arising before or after the date of acquisition.

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

Year ended 31 March 2024

3. Accounting policies (continued)

Investments in joint ventures

Investments in jointly controlled entities accounted for in accordance with the cost model are recorded at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

Investments in jointly controlled entities accounted for in accordance with the fair value model are initially recorded at the transaction price. At each reporting date, the investments are measured at fair value, with changes in fair value taken through income or expenditure. Where it is impracticable to measure fair value reliably without undue cost or effort, the cost model will be adopted.

Dividends and other distributions received from the investment are recognised as income without regard to whether the distributions are from accumulated profits of the joint venture arising before or after the date of acquisition.

Impairment of fixed assets

A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.

For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.

For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned to those units.

Financial instruments

A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including

any related transaction costs.

Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted.

Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Where investments in shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably, the investment is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in income and expenditure. All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less impairment.

SUNDERLAND JEWISH BOYS HOSTEL AND TALMUDICAL COLLEGE

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

Year ended 31 March 2024

3. Accounting policies (continued)

Financial instruments (continued)

Other financial instruments, including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value, unless payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.

Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes recognised in the statement of financial activities, with the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relationship.

Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the statement of financial activities in which the initial gain was recognised.

For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually significant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets are either assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics.

Any reversals of impairment are recognised immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised.

Investments in UK investment property represents capital introduced by the charity into the syndicate plus accrued surpluses less deficiencies but without revaluing the syndicate properties. The syndicates in which the charity is a participator have borrowings that are secured on the syndicate property. The charity accounts for its syndicate investments under the equity accounting basis and thus the charity's share of the borrowings are not included in these financial statements. Valuation of the syndicate property is at fair value of the syndicate property in the opinion of the trustees. The percentage holding ranges from 1% to 10%. The trustees consider that they do not have significant influence over the operating and financial policy of the undertaking.
