The trustees note that unrestricted reserves are held to maintain positive cash flow and meet contingencies, while the charity is currently seeking a new Rabbi and working on a new building project. Membership numbers declined slightly to 396 at year-end, but the trustees report that membership has stabilised largely due to the appointment of a Community Development Manager.
