OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Objectives and aims The principal area of benefit is Southern Egypt and the charitable objectives aTe= l ) To relieve the suffering and distress of animals who are sick and in need of care and protection by reason of sickness or Tnaltreatment in particular but not exclusively by the provision of horse and donkey centres in Eg￿t. 2) To educate members of the public especially children on Tnatters concerning animal welfare whilst working closely with the local authorities. Significant activities The activities of the charity include the provision of extenstve veterinary hospitalisation with in-patient and out-patient facilities for both equine and domestic animals which include5 24 hour emergency treatment for all animals. Significant emphasis is based on education for all those that visit the centre. ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Our year started with volunteers cancelling due to the continued Arabl Israeli problem in the north despite our feelTng very safe here in Luxor. Once again the Egyptian pound was devalued causing soaring price rises. We are ple&sed that the local people are finding our FREE Neutering program more and more attractive. We were able to train 24 Egyptian students in the spring. Later in the year we were very happy to see the return of Tul and EasyJel to Luxor bringing many tourists and ACE supporters who have not been able to afford to come for the last 14 years. Continued thanks to BEVA and Rossdales and the Intrepid Foundation for their sUPPOrt as we are their chosen charity in Egypt. At the beginning of the year we were sad to announce ihe passing of Julie Wartenberg our Co Found¢r her legacy to continue to support our education program is much appreciated. FINANCIAL REVIEW The net movement in funds for the year WLS a decrease of £47.048. covnpared to a decrease of £105,315 for the previous year. The Trustees regularly monltor and review the level of reserves. The Trustees consider a level of reserves equivalent to a minimum of six months unrestricted expenditure (adopted in accordance with Charity Commission guidelines), to be reasonable given the nature and scale of the charity's activities. The Trnstees have reviewed the major risks to which the chartty is exposed and are confident that controls are in place to mitigate those risks. STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Animal Care in Egypt - ACE is a Charity with clear objectives aTJd a high profile within Eg￿t since opening in July 2000.
