Going concern

Affirmed

“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The trustees reviewed financial performance in 2024 against the financial roadmap accompanying JW3's five-year strategy through to 2028, including consideration of fundraising by JW3 Development. The trustees consider that whilst there has been a departure from the original 5-year financial roadmap, the refreshed financial roadmap from 2026-2031, with JW3's financial performance, reserves and liquidity is projected to be in surplus by 2028 and grow steadily thereafter year-on-year. The directors also reviewed the group management accounts for the period to 31 May 2025, and forecast income statements, balance sheets and cash flows for the year to December 2025. The directors scrutinised the key assumptions underlying these forecasts, and the financial roadmap for the period after December 2025. The financial forecasts and financial roadmap assume that JW3 Development, a separate charity that undertakes fundraising for JW3 Trust Limited, will continue to raise sufficient funds and grant them to JW3 Trust Limited to enable JW3 Trust Limited to meet its charitable objectives. Confidence in JW3 Development's ability to support JW3 Trust Limited is supported by a significant multi-year pledge through to 2031 from a major donor and multi-year pledges from other donors. Accordingly, the trustees are satisfied that current cash reserves together with forecast cash flows are adequate to meet the group's obligations as they fall due so that it can continue to operate for at least 12 months from the approval of these accounts.”

Significant events

• “2024 was in many ways dominated by the impact of the horrific terrorist attacks in Israel on 7 October 2023, the ongoing war, and the rise in antisemitism in the UK. The continuing impact on the British-Jewish community was significant in a multitude of ways, and it affected JW3 as the major Jewish Community Centre and Jewish cultural venue in the UK.”
• “In February 2024, we launched the Lovelock Hostage Bridge at the main entrance JW3, the brainchild of JW3 member Marcel Knobil, who volunteered his time to lead on the project with JW3's CEO. At launch, the installation featured 136 padlocks displaying the names of the hostages kidnapped on October 7 2023, as well as padlocks from family of hostages and also high profile personalities.”
• “In April 2024 we hosted The Yellow Piano: You Are Not Alone. Working closely with the London-based Israeli family of 22 (now 24) year old hostage Alon Ohel - a talented pianist - we installed a yellow piano in our main lobby area. We issued an open invitation to all visitors to play the piano and read the accompanying information about Alon, as a way to connect to him and the other hostages through the universal language of music.”
• “In October, we a new global Jewish initiative was launched at JW3 with a distinguished panel comprising Tzipi Livni, Sir Mick Davis, Gila Sacks, and Mike Prashker. The high-quality, profound discussion focused on the challenges facing Israel and the wider Jewish People and formed a precursor to the establishment of The London Initiative, dedicated to addressing these issues.”

The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented.
