Our major source of income is donations from adopters re-homing a Dalmatian and bequests. Other sources of income have included sales. fundraising and sponsored activities. As in previous years the veterinary fees continue to be the largest expense for neutering fees. general care and long-term medication for re-homed D21m?tians and, especially, support for owners as requested. This is the first year since the Covid 19 pandemic that we have been operating normally again. The demand for our help has been high and other rescue organIsat￿)nS are firKling the same. The increasing population of dogs and the recession has rnade the need for financial help very high. Fortunately, we do have the ftinds to 5UPPOrtthese needs. Due tothe support of all ourvolunteers our administration costs are kept to a minimum. The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the Charity should undertake. Achlevements and performance This is the twenty first full year of operation since the Charity wa5 established. The main income is from donations and fundraising activities.

BRITISH DALMATIAN WELFARE Independent Examiners Report

For the year ended 31 December 2022

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the British Dalmatian Welfare (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2022

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Trust, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act).

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the application Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145 (5)(b) of the Act.

Independent Examiners Statement

I have completed my examination. I can confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

1. Accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act: or

2. The accounts do not accord with those records; or

3. The accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a “true and fair view” which is not a matter considered part of an independent examination.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
