## **Achievements and Performance**
Sales continue to be our main source of income. We raised £10505.55 through the sale of donated items. We have taken a break from selling from vinted due to a number of parcels going missing which we had to refund at a loss to ourselves. We will keep reviewing this over the next few months to see if vinted policies change in regards to missing parcels.
Easy Fundraising raised £335.97.
We have received £1104.49 in Pets at Home Lifeline Vouchers raised by supporters scanning their VIP cards when making purchases at Pets at Home.
No grants applied for as we finished the 23-24 financial year with £5462.24 surplus.
Volunteer numbers have remained the same and we are sticking to the policy of no volunteers under the age of 18.
Once again there has been a noticeable increase in the number of people wanting to surrender their pets and fewer people wishing to re-home through rescues. We have noticed and been alerted to more adverts on social media where animals are been given away for free. The number of rabbits that have been dumped in the nearby area is heartbreaking and not all have been found alive. Due to this we have had to become more selective with the animals that we take in, focusing on those most in need. Re-homing is no longer the main aim of Bunny Burrows as most of the animals taken in require complex on-going medical care.
The rearing and rehabilitation of wild rabbits is a high priority for us, with no limits set on the amount of baby wild rabbits we take in.
Ian Burrows from Newhay feeds is now supplying our hay at no cost to ourselves and we are getting the surplus Metro newspapers off the buses where one of our trustees works.
