Companies House and contemporary press show a long board overlap between Freshwater and Halpern directors:

  • Benzion Schalom Eliezer Freshwater — director from incorporation period; long-serving.
  • Aaron Halpern (also known publicly as Rabbi Chaim Halpern; Companies House DOB June 1958; address historically associated with 71 Bridge Lane, Golders Green) — director from 2 October 1995 until resignation filed 1 July 2024 (TM01).[1][2]
  • Elechonon / Elchonon Halpern (DOB Dec 1921 in filings; reported as Chaim’s father and long-time UOHC president) — director until 18 February 2015.
  • David Davis — co-director in the same period (CH).

The Jewish Chronicle reported that headteacher Joel Sager said Halpern had “no involvement” with the school day-to-day, while also covering his foundation role.[2]
