NORTH WESTERN REFORM SYNAGOGUE 

We are a constituent of the Movement for Reform Judaism. Reform Judaism, is an informed and questioning, compassionate and egalitarian expression of a unique faith and culture, rooted in the tradition of the Torah, yet in dialogue with modernity.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • There has been a change of accounting period recently, so trends may be hard to determine
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Established: 58 years
