The charitable objects of the Charity are:
(a) For the public benefit to promote citizenship and community development amongst children and young Jewish people up to the age of 25 by:
(i) providing support and activities both in the UK and internationally which develop their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as mature and responsible individuals; and
(ii) facilitating opportunities to encourage them to volunteer to support multi-generational members of the Jewish community, other faith groups and wider society by connecting with existing charities and other voluntary networks to provide assistance both in the UK and internationally when and where required.
(b) For the public benefit to promote the education of Jewish people up to the age of 25 years throughout the United Kingdom by developing their mental, physical and moral capabilities through such educational activities and in such ways as the Trustees think fit, including by:
(i) awarding to such young persons scholarships, maintenance allowances or grants in order that financial hardship will not prevent their inclusion in such educational activities;
(ii) working with and supporting the carers and/or families of those Jewish young people with physical or mental impairment or incapacity to enable those young people to take part so far as reasonably possible in such activities of the Charity as may be appropriate or beneficial for them;
(iii) ensuring that so far as reasonably possible all such activities are provided in such a way that those young persons and families practising their Jewish faith at any level of observance are not thereby prevented from taking part;
(iv) providing courses, clubs, leisure time activities and residential opportunities (including preparation for the Duke of Edinburgh award and other awards) for the development of skills and to encourage employability and to prepare for entry to any occupation, trade or profession or entry to a University or other higher education establishment on leaving an educational establishment.
(c) The promotion of racial and religious harmony for the public benefit by:
(i) promoting mutual understanding and harmony between young Jewish people and other faith and ethnic minority groups; and
