## **TECKELS ANIMAL SANCTUARIES**
## **Trustee Review of the Year October 2024 – September 2025**
Teckels is a rescue charity offering boarding services specifically to support its charitable aims. Our strategy remains:
Support public understanding of positive animal welfare practice
Reduce the number of animals in rescue locally
Maximize welfare and rehoming activities for cats and dogs.
We helped 330 animals total for the financial year, 156 of those were adopted dogs and cats, the rest were either strays that were reunited with their owners or unclaimed strays that were moved to other rescues for rehoming.
Our financial position is challenging. Income from donations is holding steady but our lifeline of legacies has significantly reduced. The charity shop in Stroud is very close to turning a profit and holding its own after the first-year grant. Our largest cost, personnel, has been hit hard by the government increases in National Insurance and minimum wage so this remains a challenge.
The board of 6 trustees remained the same for the year. We aim to recruit a fundraising trustee to develop the fundraising strategy.
Thank you to all volunteers, supporters and staff for your service in the year.

**TECKELS ANIMAL SANCTUARIES REPORT AND UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025 TECKELS ANIMAL SANCTUARIES TRUSTEES' REPORT (including DIRECTORS REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025**
The trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2025.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity's Memorandum of Association, the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)"
## **Structure, governance and management**
The charity is a company limited by guarantee. Its governing document is its Memorandum of Association. The trustees, who are also the directors for the purposes of company law, and who served during the year were: Mr C V Free (resigned 18 December 2025)
Mr P J Rogol Ms A Linker Ms C Hatfield Ms P Clydesdale (resigned 21 April 2026) Mr R Akhurst
The Charity is governed by a Board of Trustees, drawn from the local area who are able to bring particular skills or expertise to the management of the charity. Trustees are appointed by members at the Annual General Meeting or co-opted by the board when considered appropriate. There is a maximum of nine trustees and three for a quorum. The Board follows the Charity Commission guidance note CC30 when new Trustees are appointed.
Trustee meetings are held monthly to review all areas of the Charity and its subsidiary company's activities. Management staff are invited to attend as required both to provide further data on specific issues and to accept Trustees' guidance on how those issues be best addressed. The trustees have identified the major risks to which the Charity is exposed. These have been reviewed and systems have been established to mitigate risks in all areas.
The Trustees set performance criteria for senior management personnel and consider how well those personnel achieve those performance targets when determining their remuneration levels, taking into account remuneration levels for similar roles in other comparable charities.
## **Related parties**
Teckels Animal Sanctuaries (TAS) has a wholly owned trading subsidiary, Teckels Boarding Kennels Limited (TBK), Company registration number 05024252. All profits from this company are covenanted to the Charity.
## **Risk Management**
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
## **Objectives and activities**
The Charity's objectives per the Memorandum is the protection and benefit of animals of all kinds, including their protection and preservation from cruelty, suffering, ill-usage, distress or sickness, or that are otherwise in need of care and attention. The charity's aims are interpreted by the trustees to include the welfare and rehoming of animals given to our care, including veterinary bills and homing costs. The policies adopted in furtherance of these aims are to provide a safe shelter for the animals and ensure that the homes to which they are rehomed are suitable.
We strive to maximise the profitability of business opportunities at Teckels in order that the trading company may make larger contributions to the charity. Any bequests or large donations can be directed into savings accounts for site improvements and investment.
The trustees pay due regard to guidance issued by the Charity commission in deciding what activities the Charity should undertake and regularly monitor the level of reserves. The reserves policy has a target of three months of operating costs to be kept in reserve. The minimum reserve level is six weeks of operating costs maintained between both its bank account and the bank account of its subsidiary. As at the year end, eleven weeks of operating costs were so held, down from fifteen at the end of the previous year, the fall being a consequence of delays in receiving bequests. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will allow them to continue the charity's current activities whilst making modest improvements to the centre and its facilities.
Teckels opened its first charity shop, in Stroud, during the year. Whilst this has not directly generated a profit in its first period of operation, the Trustees consider the additional publicity it attracts for the charity is of value and will be a contributory factor to the increase in charitable donations received - up over 7% on the previous year.

## **TECKELS ANIMAL SANCTUARIES REPORT AND UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (including DIRECTORS REPORT) - continued**
Fundraising is a major part of Teckels' activities, as it must be for all small charities. Since our public appeal for support in the spring of 2023, which generated just under £130K via the Go Fund Me website, we have focused more effort on the use of social media for this purpose,with the assistance of a professional web marketeer recommended by a similar charity based in Oxfordshire. That individual acts under our instruction at all times. This continues to be very effective, with donations having increased from £117K in year end 30 September 2022 to £245K in the current year.
We hold bucket collections at venues such as supermarkets. Volunteers wear Teckels-labelled clothing, hold buckets and have leaflets about Teckels that are handed out on request, but do not approach individuals nor do they talk to them unless spoken to first.
All staff, administration and accounting systems continue to be reviewed where felt appropriate. The trustees recognise their duty of care to the staff employed for this purpose and to the volunteers who provide invaluable and additional assistance. The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning its future activities.
## **Year in review and future plans**
As payroll costs represent some 70% of our cost base significant increases in National Minimum Wage and Employers National Insurance contributions inevitably impact on our financial performance. Our subsidiary increases its charges for boarding as best it may, but as such income amounts to just some 40% of payroll costs, we depend heavily on an ever increasing level of regular donations and legacies to sustain our operations. The timing of legacy receipts is entirely unpredictable, and whilst we have been notified of several large bequests, the value of those we can account for in the financial year fall short of those we reported last year by some £88K. However, the value of those of which we were aware by the year end but which failed to meet the criteria for recognition in these accounts is considerably greater than the combined value of legacy receipts in both years ended 30 September 2024 and 30 September 2025 (see accounts note 3 for details).
As and when finances permit, it is our intention to improve facilities for the animals in our care by modernising our kennels facilities.
## **Volunteers**
Volunteeers continue to play a vital role in supporting the Charity and there are a number of volunteer led initiatives.

## **TECKELS ANIMAL SANCTUARIES REPORT AND UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025 TECKELS ANIMAL SANCTUARIES INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF TECKELS ANIMAL SANCTUARIES**
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Teckels Animal Sanctuaries (“the Company”) for the year ended 30 September 2025.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity’s trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (“the 2006 Act”).
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (“the 2011 Act”). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
## **Independent examiner’s statement**
Since the Company’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I 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 Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
2. the accounts do not comply with these records; or
3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a “true and fair view” which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
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 a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies are set out below.
- 1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

- Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity.
- 1.5 Incoming resources
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that the income will be received.
Cash donations and donations for adopted animals are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless perfomance cnditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relations to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

## **TECKELS ANIMAL SANCTUARIES REPORT AND UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)**
## 1 **ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued** 1.7 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are intially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases: Buildings 2% straight line
2% straight line
Fixtures, fittings and equipment
Between 10% and 25% straight line
Motor vehicles
25% reducing balance
Land is not depreciated. Short leaseholds are written off over the period to the first break clause, once brought into use.
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year.
1.8 Fixed asset investments Fixed asset investments re initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred. A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the charity. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. 1.9 Impairment of fixed assets At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). 1.1 Stocks The charity receives considerable volumes of donated animal foodstuffs. The cost of valuing all such donations is considered to be a disproportionate expense and accordingly no attempt has been made to assess the value of such donations and stocks holdings. 1.11 Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. 1.12 Debtors Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for services performed in the ordinary course of business. Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due to according to the original terms of the receivables. Prepayments arise from the payments for services prior to benefit from those services and is recognised at the point of provision of the services. 1.13 Creditors Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 1.14 Financial instruments The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instrument Issues' of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
## _Basic financial assets_
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
## _Basic financial liabilities_
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
1.15 Financial instruments - continued
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

## **TECKELS ANIMAL SANCTUARIES REPORT AND UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)**
## _Derecognition of financial liabilities_
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
## 1.16 Taxation
As a registered charity, the company is not liable to corporation tax or capital gains tax to the extent that its income and gains are applicable to charitable purposes only.
## 1.17 Defined contribution pension scheme
A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the Company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods. Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as staff pension expense through the profit and loss when they are due.
## 1.18 Employee benefits
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
## **2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements**
In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision only affects that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
