Trustees report for year ending 31[st] March 2026
The trustees of Valgray’s Border Collie & Animal Rescue presented their annual report and certified accounts for the year ending 31st March 2026.
Our Aims:
To relieve the suffering and distress of Border Collie Dogs, but not excluding other breeds of dogs or other types of animals, by the provision of temporary shelter, veterinary treatment and by finding permanent homes for such dogs / animals.
Our Objectives:
Our objectives are to provide shelter and new homes for animals (predominantly dogs) who are no longer wanted and have been abandoned. Initially the main breed was the ‘Border Collie’, however this has changed over the last couple of years as a variety of breeds lose their homes.
Review of Activities and Achievements:
Rescue and rehoming of animals – An increase in the number of animals rescued over the last 12 months – around 80 dogs including puppies and 5 horses.
Property Maintenance – The 2024-25 year had been very expensive for the charity. It was pleasing to see the cost of maintenance repairs has come down significantly to £4,627.00
Events – Val and her team of volunteers attended Crufts as well as Blachmans Fair and several dog shows in the local area to raise funds for the charity.
Donations – As usual a very generous amount of money was received from supporters of the charity - £83,755.00 (including £6,500 via PayPal).
The accounts have been approved by the Trustees, and the independent examination was carried out by our new accountant, Greg Petho of GTP Finances.
