We provide a rescue service for cats in need and work with veterinary and animal welfare professionals, as well as the genera I public, to provide shelter and homes where possible for cats in need. 2024 was another busy year with an increased number of emergency calls. The charity relies on public donations .Funding f rom International Animal Rescue ceased at the end of 2023. Total income for the year decreased by £256,943 (to £100,079), due to the ending of funding from IAR1£235k in 20231 and a generous donation from Ricky Gervais, tour in 2023, offset by increases to donations of £22k and to legacies by £8k. Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts. Para 1.17 and 1.19 The charity aims to work within financial resources to provide and sustain a high level of veterinary care and welfare forthe animals in our care. We continue to provide excellent veterinary care for our elderly cats to maintain a high quality of life.

Para 1.20 animal welfare organisations, to support cooperation in the rescue of animals that need help. We increased our information and advice service to the public including directing people to vet professionals where appropriate. We also continued to increase our effort to facilitate the placement of cats from home to home without the need to enter our rescue centre. We provided work experience for young adults on animal welfare courses at local colleges. We continued to increase our visitor program by including elderly people accompanied by their carers or relatives. We held an open day in August and invited our Patron Peter Egan to open a new cat house which had been kindly donated by a Supporter. We continued to increase our volunteer support and have successfully increased our social media awareness. However social media followers have dropped although the appeals we have done have increased due to the help of Facebook adverts paid for by a generous donor. Facebook has over 1700 followers Instagram has over 3700 followers.
