Achievements and Performance
SORP reference
2024 was another year of rising costs for
food and energy. We again used our
reserves to help pay for new enclosures
and increased running costs.
We were very grateful to our supporters
for donations to help us and we were able
to complete several large projects and
finance our increasing energy bills and
animal food.

achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity's work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.
