About Lechem Shlomo

Lechem Shlomo is a UK-registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation, established in 2014, dedicated to advancing Orthodox Jewish religion and education, alongside poverty relief, sickness prevention, and welfare for public benefit. Governed by trustees, it embodies a faith-driven ethos rooted in sustaining Orthodox Jewish life, learning, and community welfare across England and Wales. Its distinctive approach relies on trustee discretion without published strategies, enabling flexible support for aligned charitable causes rather than direct service delivery.

It provides funding for core costs, projects, or capital needs, focusing on medium-sized entities in religious, educational, and welfare spaces. Grants are directed to areas with significant Orthodox Jewish populations in England and Wales, and broadly permit other charitable purposes at trustees' discretion.
