## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The Celia Cross-Greyhound Trust is constituted by Deed of Trust dated 14th April 1993 and is a registered charity. Charity number 1020383. 

## **Recruitment, appointment and resignation of Trustees** 

The Board of Trustees seeks to recruit new members to balance various skills required to manage the Charity but considers that the current members offer a variety of skills suitable for the running of the Charity. Where new Trustees are appointed they are welcomed onto the board and spend time meeting the other members and the staff to understand the operations of the Charity. Training is, by necessity, tailored to individual needs depending on the knowledge gaps and experience of the individual involved. 

## **Investment policy** 

The Trustees' policy is to invest surplus funds in fixed interest deposits since the value of investments can fall. This is normally not the case with cash deposits, so investment risk is minimised. 

## **Risk management** 

The Trustees do not consider that the Charity is exposed to any major risks but acknowledge that its current and future survival is heavily dependent on voluntary donations and the support of its many voluntary helpers and, in common with many other charities in the current economic climate, continues to be reliant on the goodwill of members and considers that it has adequate reserves to meet obligations now and in the future. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and activities of the charity for the public benefit** 

The objective of the Charity is to rescue, and to relieve the suffering of Greyhounds & Lurchers (Sighthounds) that need care and attention; to provide a safe and secure environment either at the Kennels or with foster homes, so that they may be rehabilitated until we are able to find them secure and loving permanent homes. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

The Trustees are pleased to report that we had another successful and productive year in the saving of many lives. 

- 

   - A total of 126 dogs were rehomed directly from the kennels to find loving new homes. 

- We have 4 dogs on permanent long-term foster who we will assist with their veterinary treatment costs for the rest of their life. 

- 

   - We facilitated in the re-homing of a further 52 dogs working alongside other charities and organisations. 

- We transported 64 dogs to other kennels and safety when we were unable to take them on but found suitable space elsewhere. 

We are very lucky that we have built up a good relationship with many other rescue charities and believe that this has helped to increase the number of dogs that can be helped, even if we physically do not have the kennel space ourselves. We provided funds for fuel and transport costs where necessary on transportation of these dogs to help get these dogs into rescue all over the UK. 

This year again the Charity funded the neutering, microchipping, and vaccinating  of a further 18 greyhounds that were waiting for spaces to be found. Despite us not being part of the GBGB rehoming scheme, we still have been inundated with Trainers approaching us to help with their dogs. Sadly, there are still not enough spaces for the number of dogs being retired each year, the GBG retirements scheme needs looking into.

## **Trustees' Report (continued)** 

We supplied veterinary treatment to for 4 dogs from 3 greyhound trainers whilst the dogs were waiting for spaces to be available at the kennels. Again, this year we maintain a trust with many of the local traveller community who will now contact Jane Thompson when in need of re-housing their dogs after the lamping, coursing season, rather than just allowing the dog on the street. 

The situation of the “lockdown” puppies’ people looking to rehouse is still absolutely devastating, and like many of our friends in rescue we are battling to keep up with the demand of people wanting to give up their dogs that they took on in over Lockdown, many of these dogs need much more time spent on them due to behavioural issues. 

In Kind gifts we received at the kennels this year again have been very generous. We would like to thank everyone who has purchased items for the kennels. Our Amazon Wish list still proves to be very popular, and we estimate that the gifts we have been sent by our very generous supporters is an approximate £3,600 worth of goods donated. 

We would sincerely like to thank everyone who has purchased items for the kennels, donated funds, donated items or supported us in any way. 

The Trustees, along with staff and volunteers are constantly working to improve the profile of the Charity and to pass on its message to a wider population. The Charity is reliant upon volunteers as well as a team of employed workers to ensure that the kennels are always adequately manned and managed. who uses the site as a platform for fundraising awareness and to showcase our dogs. 

Our Facebook page is ever growing with over 12,000 engaged on our daily goings on. Our Instagram profile is also growing daily with over 2,000 followers. 

We are striving all the time to keep up with the modern ways of keeping people informed. Our Twitter (X) account is still going from strength to we now have a fabulous 2,600 people following us and it is growing daily. We also now have a lovely platform for showcasing our dogs with an account on TikTok. 

We have continue using social media as our main source of fundraising. Now the pandemic years are fully behind us we have started holding small events onsite at Sun Valley and hope to gain ore events on our calendar going forward. 

## **Management of the Charity** 

The decision-making process for the day to day running of the Charity is made by the Trustees and key management. The kennel manager, Jane Thompson, is also on the Board of Trustees and has the duty of ensuring that Trustee decisions are carried out and the staff and volunteers are co-ordinated in the daily activity of running the kennels. 

Trustees determine the level of salaries paid to employees with the ultimate decision being made by the Chair of the Trustees. The salary level of the kennel manager is also set by the Chair of the Trustees and is detailed in note 7 to the accounts.

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Reserves policy** 

Approximately 27% of the Charity's reserves relate to restricted freehold property. The Trustees have therefore based their reserves policy on the liquid assets of the Charity. The Trustees policy is to maintain free reserves at a level at least equivalent to fund its future operations for six months. In addition the Trustees acknowledge that, should the Charity be wound up, it would have liabilities to meet in respect of redundancy payments and therefore a level of cash reserves is maintained in respect of this eventuality, should it arise. 

At 5th April 2023 the Charity held current assets of £341,834 (2022 - £299,064) and had fixed assets, including freehold property, of £717,950 (2022 - £709,712). 

The Charity carries adequate reserves to enable it to continue operations for the foreseeable future and, as the very nature of the Charity's income is based upon public goodwill, the Trustees consider that through activities carried out to raise funding as well as continued donations towards the Charity, funding will continue to flow in. On this basis the Trustees consider it appropriate to prepare the Financial Statements of the charity on a going concern basis. 

## **FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS** 

The nature of the Charity requires ongoing fundraising and a need by the Trustees to protect the funds the Charity accumulates to ensure that the good work carried out continues well into the future as there will always be sighthounds that need rescuing and re-homing. 

## **FUNDS HELD** 

All liquid assets of the Charity are held in furtherance of its prime objective. 

The Charity holds no funds as custodian trustee on behalf of others.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of** 

## **Celia Cross-Greyhound Trust** 

I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 5 April 2023, which are set out on pages 7 to 19. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011(the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. The Charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of ICAEW. 

It is my responsibility to: 

   - examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

- follow the procedures  laid down in the General Directions given by  the Charity Commission under 

- section 145 (5) (b) of the 2011 Act; and 

   - state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: 

   - 

   - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act; and 

- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act 

have not been met; or 

(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **Celia Cross-Greyhound Trust Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 5 April 2023** 

## **1. Accounting policies** 

## **Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. 

Celia Cross-Greyhound Trust meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes. 

## **Going concern** 

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 

## **Fund accounting policy** 

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees' discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity. 

Restricted funds are only utilised against the projects to which the funder intended them for, although the charity in general does not receive restricted funding due to the nature of its activities. 

Further details of each fund are disclosed in note 16. 

## **Incoming resources** 

Voluntary income including donations, gifts, legacies and grants receivable is recognised where there is entitlement, certainty of receipt and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability. 

Gifts in kind are recognised in different ways dependent on how they are used by the charity: 

(i) Those donated for resale which produce income when they are sold are valued at the amount actually realised. 

(ii) Those donated for onward transmission to beneficiaries are included in the statement of financial activities as incoming resources and resources expended when they are distributed. They are valued at the amount the charity would have had to pay to acquire them. 

Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the statement of financial activities at the same time as the gift to which they relate. 

Shop income and income derived from events is recognised as earned (that is, as the related goods or services are provided). 

Investment income is recognised on a receivable basis. 

Donations and amounts received from events are credited to the Statement of Financial Activities when received. Tax reclaimable under gift aid is credited on a receivable basis. Legacies are recognised when notified if there is sufficient evidence that the legacy will be received and of the likely value. Interest is recognised when receivable.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 5 April 2023** 

_......... continued_ 

## **Resources expended** 

Liabilities are recognised as resources expended as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. All expenditure is allocated to the appropriate category and includes attributable VAT which cannot be reclaimed. Expenditure is allocated between 'costs of generating funds', 'charitable expenditure', 'supporting costs' and 'governance costs' on a functional basis. 

Costs of generating funds are the costs of trading for fundraising purposes. 

## **Governance costs** 

Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the Independent Examination Fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the Trust. 

## **Fixed assets** 

Individual fixed assets costing £500 or more are initially recorded at cost. 

## **Depreciation** 

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows: 

Freehold property improvements 20% straight line method Plant and machinery including motor Vehicles                                                                 20% straight line method and 25% reducing balance 

Restricted freehold land, calculated at 50% of the overall donated cost of £250,000, is not depreciated. The restricted freehold buildings are being depreciated over a term of 100 years commencing from April 1993. 

## **Stock** 

Stocks are included in the financial statements at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for any slow moving and obsolete items. 

## **Pensions** 

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions are charged in the statement of financial activities as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.
