Audit opinion

Going concern

Affirmed

“On Sunday 18 May 2025, the member communities of the Movement for Reform Judaism (MRJ) and Liberal Judaism (LJ) voted to unite into one Movement for Progressive Judaism for the UK. It is anticipated that from 1 January 2026, the operational activities of both MRJ and LJ will transfer to a new registered entity, The Movement for Progressive Judaism (MPJ), which will carry forward the charitable purposes and objectives of the merging entities. ... Accordingly, the trustees consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.”

Significant events

• “On 18 May 2025, our members, together with the members of Liberal Judaism, voted overwhelmingly in favour of proceeding with the legal combination of our movements to form The Movement for Progressive Judaism. A vision that has been discussed and imagined for decades is becoming a reality.”
• “In 2024, not unsurprisingly, much of the focus of our work was directed towards this goal. 2024 was a year of exhaustive conversation and consultation with member communities, clergy and stakeholders, culminating in the vote to proceed.”
• “During 2024 we continued to wrestle with the ongoing impact of the horrific attack on Israel on 7 October 2023 and the ensuing conflict in Gaza with Hamas and its impact on the Palestinian population. This has included unprecedented levels of antisemitism, and the complexity of holding complex conversations within our diverse communities, seeking to create safe and brave spaces in which different voices can be heard, and to encourage respectful dialogue, always through the prism of our Jewish values.”
• “Launch of the new High Holy Day Machzor - an instant bestseller, exceeding the original orders and requiring a reprint”
• “Shirei meets Chagigah 2024 - an innovative national event, with music, prayer, learning and celebration”
• “L'dor va'dor - a tour of Jewish Europe specially designed to replace the Year 11 Israel Tour which could not take place, visiting Prague, Vienna and Budapest”
• “An inspirational education conference and new educational programmes including the Education Hub with Liberal Judaism”
• “Renewed commitment to interfaith dialogue, connecting with other faiths, attending Iftars, conferences and meetings including the Drumlanrig Accords”
• “Kivunim - our popular programme aimed at bnei mitzvah students in smaller communities”
• “The work of our Reform Beit Din, run by its new convenor, with a significant increase in conversions”
• “Improved communications, nationally and locally, within our movement and the wider Jewish community, celebrating the achievements of our communities”
• “Hands on support and training, including new training to help communities to promote and share their stories and achievements and media masterclasses to learn communication skills”
• “Monthly Leadership Check-in and Open House, connecting leaders and members across the country”
• “Our voice and values in government and wider society, with clergy appearing regularly on television and radio”
• “265 individuals completed conversion across both Batei Din - a 20% year-on-year increase”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. 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. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
