register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.ukAbout Rayonhills
Rayonhills is a UK-registered charitable company established in 2018, governed by trustees who volunteer their time and have personally funded deficits to sustain operations. Its core mission advances the Orthodox Jewish religion, supports Orthodox Jewish and broader education, and relieves poverty, sickness, and infirmity for public benefit. Distinctively, it operates as a philanthropic conduit, channeling all support exclusively through other registered UK charities rather than direct services, emphasising strong governance, risk management, and alignment with Orthodox Jewish values. The funder prioritises Orthodox Jewish community needs in faith promotion, education initiatives, and welfare, with flexibility for general poverty relief and health interventions that demonstrate public benefit. Grants support a range of activities, including projects, core operating costs, and charitable welfare efforts, selected for mission compatibility without restrictions on project size or organisational turnover. Eligible applicants are solely UK-registered charities operating nationwide, with activities aligned to Rayonhills' religious, educational, and welfare aims—primarily benefiting Orthodox Jewish communities. Unsolicited applications are not accepted; trustees discretionarily select beneficiaries. Rayonhills excludes individuals, non-UK entities, capital-only appeals, and non-aligned causes, distinguishing itself through its unwavering Jewish ethos, voluntary leadership, and discreet, trustee-led grantmaking.
