the charity acknowledbyes it has no control over the external economic climate, it is actively definingJ ils

Restricted funds
'll)e summer 2024 fundraiser was run to raise money in conjunLlion with 14earin&y Dogs for Deaf People
(charity number 293358) and as such the income and expenditure of that campaign is considLrcd reslricled
funds.
The restricted funds related lo the Ukraine Appeal and 'Third-party Merchandise which is branded
merchandise sold un behalf ot these charilie5. The expenditure is the subsequent donation to these Ch￿111¢5.
Durin& March 2022 thL Ch¢irity l¢iunched an appeal to r(iise tnoney to support pe15 affected by the wur in
Ukraine. 'I'his money was then donaled to charilie5 working with animal welfare and rescues working in
Ukraine and neighbouring countries.
Pets ai Horne stores are no longer holding Third-party merchandise and therefore this is no restricted funds
at the year end.
