BETH HAMIDRASH HAGADOL SYNAGOGUE LEEDS 

The entity has been created with a view, in the future, to advance the orthodox Jewish religion and faith for the public benefit. However, during the period from its creation to the end of its first accounting period, no activities had been undertaken and the charity was dormant.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from a grant maker
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
