TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" (effective 1 January 2019).
Objectives and activities
-
To take in unwanted, abandoned or stray cats, kittens, rabbits and guinea pigs, and give them a good quality of life until it is possible to find a loving, permanent home for them.
-
To educate the public in responsible pet ownership.
-
To eliminate indiscriminate breeding by encouraging the neutering of all pets, including pedigrees.
-
To advise and help the public in the humane control of feral cats.
Public benefit
The trustees whilst following the Charity Commissions guidance on Public benefit cannot physically help everyone within our geographically defined area. Where we cannot take somebody's pet or stray, we offer our neutering scheme where applicable, advice or give details of other charities that may be able to help.
The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.
Use of volunteers
The Charity has many volunteers who make a significant contribution to its operations including home visiting, supporting our retail operations and fundraising as well as supporting our animal care operations. The Charity could not survive in its present form without the contributions and support of our dedicated and committed volunteers.
Achievements and performance
During the year, CRRC rescued 718 animals and rehomed 656 animals, an increase on previous year due entirely to the Covid 19 pandemic restricting activities last year. The centre was closed to the public during much of the prior year in line with Government guidelines. We changed our rescue and rehoming processes, introducing virtual home visits, and reducing the physical contact involved in our rescue and rehoming activities and some of these practices have been incorporated into our current procedures allowing more flexibility. The animal rescue and rehoming statistics for 2021-22 are shown in the table below:

| Total | 882 | 789 | 346 | 3011 | 5028 |
During 2021-2022 CRRC has restarted its animal care & retail operations but was unable to have the level of fundraising during the year due to the Covid-19 restrictions. Indeed, the main fundraising events – the Summer and Winter fayres could not be held due to the Covid-19 restrictions.
We opened a new charity shop in July 21 as it is recognised that this is an important source of fundraising for the Charity. The new shop is performing in line with expectations.
CRRC has also continued with the “Friends”, “Sponsorship” and “Neutering” schemes, and has continue to undertake feral work when needed.
Financial review
At the year end, the total funds held by the charity were £2,643,156 (2021: £2,556,289), consisting of £48,140 restricted funds (2021: £49,508) and unrestricted funds of £2,595,016 (2021: £2,506,781). Included within charitable funds are £1,268,587 tangible fixed assets (2021: £1,237,539) which can only be realised by disposing of those tangible assets. Also included within charitable funds are £958,907 of fixed term investments (2021: £872,332) which are term deposits due to mature after more than three months.
Income for the year at £892,898 was £116,718 down on the previous year (2021: £1,009,616) due to lower donations and legacies (down £367,531), the prior year included the receipt of government covid support grants & furlough which were £135,933 in excess of the current year, offset by an increase in retail income due to the reopening of the shops after Covid-19 restrictions were lifted (up £235,646). There was an increase in adoption income (up £7,685) and increased fundraising activities compared to the previous year due to Covid 19 restrictions.
Expenditure for the year at £806,031 was £137,636 up on the previous year (2021: £668,395), as we incurred higher wage costs due to the shops re-opening and the shelter staff back full time after the Covid-19 lockdowns in the prior year (£50,997), Increased shop costs due to the re-opening in addition a new shop was opened during the year (up £63,975), Increased legal costs as the charity is transitioning to a CIO (£7,250) and the balance of the variance relates to increased operational costs as the centre opened up again after the Covid-19 restrictions were lifted.
Income therefore exceeded expenditure by £86,867 for the year (2021: £341,221).
Policy on reserves
The Charity's policy is to hold free reserves of at least one year's expenditure (approximately £805k), but with contingency for new projects to improve the work of the Charity (approximately £100k), giving a total of £905k. At the end of the accounting period, the unrestricted funds were £2,595k (2021-£2,507k), of which £1,269k (2021£1,238k) are invested in fixed assets. This leaves free reserves of £1,326k, which is in line with the policy. The trustees are considering the future plans of the Charity in this respect.
Structure, governance and management
The constitution of the Charity is set out in the Deed of Trust dated 7th May 1991 and the Deed of Variation dated 27th May 1997, 17th August 2017 and 6th July 2018.

CAT AND RABBIT RESCUE CENTRE
STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that year.
In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping sufficient accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF CAT AND RABBIT RESCUE CENTRE
I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Cat and Rabbit Rescue Centre (the charity) for the year ended 31 March 2022.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act).
I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner's statement
Since the charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the ICAEW, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or
-
2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
3 the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
Cat and Rabbit Rescue Centre is an unincorporated charity, registered with the Charity Commission number 1010000. The registered address is Holborow lodge, Chalder Lane, Sidlesham, Chichester, West Sussex, PO20 7RJ.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" (effective 1 January 2019). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
1.4 Income
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.
Grants, including grants for the purchase of fixed assets, are recognised as incoming resources when receivable. Where grants are given in relation to a set period which straddles a year end, recognition of an appropriate portion of the grant is deferred.
Income from trading activities is recognised at the point of sale and net of VAT where applicable.

(Continued)
1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Individual fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are initially recorded at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. Exceptions can be made by the Trustees where it is appropriate to do so.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Freehold land and buildings 2% Straight Line Plant and equipment 20% Reducing Balance Motor vehicles 25% Reducing Balance
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
1.7 Fixed asset investments
Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.
1.8 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).
1.9 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
1.10 Financial instruments
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
1 Accounting policies
(Continued)
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
1.11 Employee benefits
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
1.12 Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

20 Events after the reporting date
The charity intends to transfer its activities to a Charitable Incorporated Organisation and is currently receiving advice as to how this should be structured. There would be no impact on charities operations as a result of this transfer. The current entity will continue to receive some donations and legacies during this transition period.
21 Related party transactions
There were no disclosable related party transactions during the year (2021 - none).
22 Legacies
The charity has been notified of entitlement to 8 legacies prior to the year end which have either not yet been received or only partially received. It is not currently possible to reliably state the value of these legacies due to unknown factors, for example where the charity has a residual interest. For 4 of these it has been possible to estimate the receipts to be in the region of £64k however there remains uncertainty over their final value.
