The company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company, and is governed under its Articles of Association and its constitution registered under the Charities Act.

RISK MANAGEMENT

OBEJECTIVES AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

The charity's objectives and principal activities are the rescue of endangered primates and the provision of a sanctuary for their continuing upkeep and care.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE REPORT 2022 – 2023

This has been an eventful year and here are some of our achievements.

June2022

We applied to Powys Nature Partnership for a grant to assist with this project. Unfortunately, the Sanctuary was unsuccessful. However, we feel it is too important to abandon and will look at other avenues of funding assistance. We believe this is a perfect spot to create a unique and interesting reserve rich in fauna and flora, a haven for them and an asset to the community.

The creation of a nature reserve that protects and enhances a natural peat bog, wetland and meadow area to the west of the Sanctuary. The project will be delivered by the Sanctuary with the assistance of a Volunteer Ecology specialist who will train one of our staff to become our Biodiversity Officer. e.g. The creation of Hibernacula will encourage reptiles like slow worms and grass snakes to inhabit the area and will also involve local people in a practical exercise. We also plan to create green roofs on any storage structures or bird hides and will welcome and encourage any ideas from visiting groups or individuals so that they feel a part of this project.

There is significant potential to enhance the biodiversity of this area and make it a haven for both humans and animals. (Future opportunities also exist here in the SSSI left unmanaged and ignored for decades)

It will increase wildflower planting, provide an amenity where local schools and groups in the community can become involved in a practical way and learn about measures being taken to protect the environment in which they live. e.g. they will see for themselves what a peat bog habitat can give and why they should be protected. 3.

The Sanctuary is a not for profit organisation and intends to make this space available for use by local schools and Community groups. This will also raise awareness in the local communities of the crisis faced in nature and encourage them to participate in a small way to preserving and creating an area that will be protected in perpetuity. There is scope to expand this area outside the perimeter but still within the same land ownership.

The Local Record Centre – National Biodiversity Network can provide information within 1km radius of what we should expect to find here.

This will be a permanent area for the future and will be funded and maintained by the Wales Ape and Monkey Sanctuary. Our Biodiversity Officer will ensure that it remains sustainable, grows and will be available to the community.

Fencing will have wildlife ‘doors’ and tunnels to enable movement in or out of the reserve. All materials used in buildings and fixings will be of recycled plastic. We currently use recycled rubber (tyres) for all pathways and this will be continued in the reserve. Future plans when planting and other habitat enhancements are in place, will be boardwalks made of recycled plastic which will not rot or leak foreign matter into the soil.

All trails and practical work will encourage visitors and participants to use peat free compost and to make small changes in their own gardens to increase the chances of survival of small mammals and birds

August 2022

The Sanctuary welcomed a group of Scottish Highland cattle who have proved very popular with the visitors. Angus, Hamish, Alice, Isabelle, Eltie and Mackenzie have made themselves very comfortable here, which of course will be their forever home.

We have now purchased a buggy which will have a dual purpose – taking food out for them and also perhaps Buggy Rides for visitors to see them! September 2022

We have never sold our own calendars, they’ve always been designed and sold by loyal fans and then the proceeds have been donated to us.

We thought this year that we would do our own! I mean, It can’t be that hard, can it? We will give it a go!

Rosie started to go through 100’s of pictures and putting them in to different folder for ease, but who would make the cut?! BIG QUESTION!!

We now had too many photos of our animals and not all could go on the calendar! We didn’t want to leave anyone out but knew we had to be brutal. We decided the only way we could do it was to just do a chimp calendar.

Rosie narrowed it down to 5 images of each chimp and we have 6 so, doing the maths, that equals 30 images but we only had space for 12!!

That was that. Jan had to step in and decide on the final 12, which is 2 images of each chimp. Rosie sent it off the printers and we were delighted with the results. We advertised on our social media and also put it on the website. Even our patron Phil Campbell ordered one, see pic! We ordered 100 as we didn’t know how they would go but we managed to sell them all. Delighted with the result.

October 2022

The long awaited ‘indoors’ was finally opened!

We had taken advantage of the fact that when we closed for covid, we could redecorate the shop. There would be no other time that we would be completely closed to the public so it made perfect sense.

We had carpet tiles that were well used so decided we would put grey wood flooring down. This also meant that once we reopened, it would be more hygienic. But this was quite the task, the length of the building is 80metres!

We started to move things out of the shop bit by bit so that we could get the floor tiles up and we also managed to recycle the tiles so that they didn’t go to land fill. This was a big plus. We had to store things anywhere and everywhere (including the horsebox!) for the new flooring to go down. At this point we were quite full on donations as we weren’t selling any because of the shop being closed.

Once the flooring was down, it brought a new lease of life to the shop. You could really see the potential! Many years ago we purchased library shelving from a University so now was the time to start building them from flat pack and to start getting the shop looking like a shop again. Jan, Rosie and Lizi started building the shelves, Mike painted the ceiling and Graham started panelling behind the counter.

It was quite the team effort. Graham fitted new lights aswell so it’s a lot brighter. Jan started putting everything back on to the new shelves and everything was starting to come together. We were 5.

now rushing to get open in time for the October half term! We made it and here is the result.

Coffee Machine

Once indoors had fully re-opened we wanted to be able to sell hot drinks to visitors. We used to sell them pre-Covid but during that time we stopped selling them. We were making them by hand! Lattes, Cappuccinos, mochas, hot chocolates (& whipped cream!) etc.

We thought that when we re-opened we would get a ‘proper’ coffee machine. Nothing fancy but easy for visitors to use. All we knew is that we did not want to be hand making hot drinks anymore! Took us a while but we finally found a lovely machine that does all the selection we wanted with cappuccinos and hot chocs to die for! A Cold Drinks fridge, Slush machine and an ice cream freezer meant we could finally offer some refreshments to visitors.

As we have a new seating area indoors and outdoors our visitors are able to enjoy a picnic in any weather.

November 2022

Two of our staff, Nicola and Rosie completed a ‘fire walk’. Rosie heavily shared the information for the fire walk on our social media platforms. The aim 6.

was to raise as much funding as possible for the sanctuary. I mean, after all, they were going to walk on fire! They managed to raise £2055.11 for the sanctuary!

This was a huge help to the animals, especially out of season.

We headed to Ystradgynlais youth club where the event was taking place at 7pm. You could tell at this point the girls were getting a bit nervous (although I doubt they’d say!) The girls had 20 minutes of training and they were ready. Apparently.

Now the time was here. The girls had to go and ‘feel the heat’ by standing near the fire and then the socks and shoes were off.

A large audience had gathered to watch the event.

Now it was actually time to walk on fire… THEY DID IT!!!!

February 2023

We are so pleased to say our pre-loved vintage clothing & textile shop is now open at the sanctuary on Sundays & Wednesdays :)

Jo has been very busy behind the scenes organising, pricing & getting the shop ready. We had our first day open on Sunday 5th Feb and it went really well. 7.

There’s handbags, shoes, clothing (even 2 wedding dresses!), lots of cushions plus lots more!

The vintage shop will be open on Sundays and Wednesdays 11am – 3pm and all proceeds from the shop go back into our charity.

Jo is a new staff member whose expertise is vintage items which, as well as selling at the Sanctuary, she will also sell online. As a music teacher she is also assisting in expanding our education work to include other elements of the curriculum.

April 2023.

German Rescue

3 monkeys, 4 countries, 2,000 miles.

TEDDY

We named him Teddy as he is so fluffy-like a bear!

We rescued Teddy from a Zoo in Germany. We believe he is around 14 years old, and he is a barbary macaque (more commonly known as a barbary ape). He and another barbary ape (he has no name) had been loose in the zoo for 5 years. The two monkeys have been running around causing all sorts of mischief with visitors, so the zoo wanted to have them rehomed.

Unfortunately, when Graham and Rosie arrived at the zoo to pick them up to bring them to WAMS, the zoo had only caught 1 monkey. The other monkey is still at large in the zoo.

Graham and Rosie are hoping to go back within the next 8 weeks for Teddy’s friend, we just hope he can be caught this time.

Certain death will face him otherwise.

MONA & HUGO

Mona & Hugo have been rescued from an animal shelter in Berlin. They are Mother & Son, Rhesus macaques, aged 14 and 9.

They had been seized by the German Government (read in to that what you will) and temporarily housed at the shelter which unfortunately couldn’t keep them long term.

All 3 monkeys travelled well and didn’t stop eating on their long journey to Wales! They are now in quarantine for the next 4 months, which is law and have weekly checks from the vet. They're getting to know the keepers and the staff and seem to be taking the move in their stride.

WAMS are also the Great Ape Project UK. We were contacted by the Great Ape Project Germany to see if we could help with this rescue and how could we say no?!

Thank you to everyone for their messages of support and thank you to everyone who donated to this rescue. You keep us going and we can continue to keep rescuing animals in need

This rescue has been the most difficult ever. The new Brexit regulations have increased the paperwork, the waiting times and the journey time, the latter being particularly onerous for the monkeys.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30[th] APRIL 2023

14. STATEMENT OF FUNDS

The restricted capital fund comprises (i) the value of land and buildings costs donated by Mr G Garen and Mrs J A Garen and by Mrs Garen’s mother, plus (ii) donations and grants assistance towards the building of the Primate Rescue Sanctuary and Visitors Centre less (iii) depreciation on the related assets.

The Trustees believe a restricted capital fund is a better and more accurate description of this fund rather than an endowment fund.

The directors are drawing up a plan to deal with the deficit on unrestricted funds. They have already lent money to the charity to fund the current deficit, and will consider waiving the loan at some point in the near future.
