Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2022

Objectives and activities

The charity's objects

The promotion, for the public benefit, of the conservation of rare and endangered species and their habitats worldwide, in particular but not exclusively by the provision of veterinary services.

The charity's main activities

Wildlife Vets International aims to achieve its objectives by providing in-country veterinary support and establishing sustainable capacity through partnership with local organisations, increasing both human and animal welfare.

Public benefit statement

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular the advancement of environmental protection or improvement.

Achievements and performance

Miranda Stevenson, Chair of Trustees summarises WVI’s achievements:

We are extremely proud of the impact we have been able to have on a wide range of endangered species conservation initiatives since the founding of WVI in 2004. By getting world class veterinary expertise to the conservation frontline when and where it’s most needed, WVI has made significant contributions to the long term survival of species like the echo parakeet, the Amur leopard and the pine marten.

However, as we approach our 20th anniversary, we are increasingly aware of how important it is to evaluate the work we do and the projects we support as part of a more holistic approach to biodiversity conservation and the concept of One Health.[1] In doing so, we can demonstrate impact not only for ourselves and our local partners, but also for those who support and fund the work we do.

The 2015 UN Sustainable Development Goals provide us with a starting point for a framework for evaluation. Of particular relevance to WVI are; SDG 15, Life on Land, which refers to the need to protect, restore and promote biodiversity and terrestrial ecosystems; SDG 14, Life Below Water, which addresses the need to conserve our oceans; and SDG 3 Good Health and Well-Being, which includes targets concerned with the management of global health risks, communicable disease and vaccine research.

While the SDGs were primarily designed with respect to the health and welfare of the planet’s human population, few would now deny the fundamental interconnections between all life on the planet – in particular people, domestic animals and livestock, and wildlife. The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic shone a spotlight on the shrinking interface between humans, other species and the health of the planet, and what can happen when species which would not normally come into contact with each other exist in closer and closer proximity, giving rise to new and greater opportunities for the spill over of pathogens. While emerging infectious disease has become recognised by zoologists and conservationists as a leading cause of species decline over recent decades, the Covid pandemic has resulted in a much wider appreciation of the need for effective disease surveillance and mitigation to protect all life on earth, ourselves included. This is where WVI plays a modest but vital part.

Life on Land

In 2022, initiatives which have contributed to the protection of Life on Land include the work of Matthew Rendle RVN in Ghana, where he has been helping West African Primate Conservation Action (WAPCA) prepare a group of captive white-naped mangabeys (Cercocebus lunulatus) – an Endangered primate – for future release into the wild in community-managed forest. Meanwhile, vet Jessica Bodgener, working with Cornell colleague Dr Martin Gilbert, has significantly advanced understanding of the threat posed by canine distemper virus to leopards in Nepal, and potential links to human-leopard conflict. Jess and Martin were also responsible for a ground-breaking workshop for regional tiger specialists in Indonesia, as the country prepares to be the first to introduce a nationwide network for distemper surveillance – the greatest known disease threat to the world’s remaining tigers. The workshop was one of a suite of initiatives to support global tiger conservation - the focus of our Big Give Christmas Challenge campaign, which was our most successful yet, raising over £30,000.

Achievements and performance continued Life on Land continued

Another highlight was the visit of Nepalese wildlife vet, Dr Amir Sadaula, for CPD training in the UK, to enable him to make better use of anaesthetic and X-ray equipment at the country’s first and only wildlife hospital in Chitwan National Park, where patients include tigers and leopards. As an umbrella species, conservation of the tiger supports and is intrinsically linked to the protection of its habitat and local biodiversity. We are extremely grateful to Montgomery Veterinary Clinic and our long standing partners at The Big Cat Sanctuary, Colchester Zoo and Chessington World of Adventures for facilitating Amir’s training.

Life below Water

This year, we have not only continued to strengthen the veterinary capacity of the ARCHELON turtle rehab and rehabilitation centre in Greece, but we have also built on our relationship with government vets in Ghana who are responsible for turtle welfare; something which will be taken forward over the coming months by Matthew Rendle. Following a further two clinical-support visits to ARCHELON by Matthew and marine vet Tania Monreal, we are delighted to have helped establish what is now a centre of excellence for Greece, putting them in a position to co-host our first Turtle Health and Welfare Workshop for turtle rehabilitators from around the country in 2023. A special mention must go to Animal Friends Pet Insurance for their kind support for our turtle work.

Plastic pollution now affects all turtles seen in rescue centres around the Mediterranean, from entanglement in discarded plastic fishing nets and line, to the ingestion of miscellaneous plastic waste and the ubiquitous presence of microplastics. While the health implications of the abundance of microplastics are still poorly understood for both humans and wildlife, early indications suggest the effects are unlikely to be benign.

Good Health & Well-Being

“All 17 SDGs ultimately depend on healthy ecosystems and biodiversity.”[2]

Despite this assertion by the UN Environment Programme, it is telling that by the organisation’s own admission, “biodiversity is largely neglected in Covid-19 recovery spending”.[3] At WVI we feel this is indicative of a bigger problem in the One Health arena; there needs to be much greater awareness at all levels of society and government of the intrinsic links between species conservation, biodiversity, wildlife health and disease control. Given our small size, WVI’s influence is inevitably restricted to a small pool of projects working with threatened species. However, we are committed to advocating whenever appropriate for a more integrated approach to all policies designed to advance the SDG goals, especially when considering management of global health risks, disease control and associated research. As we move forward, we will strive to make more explicit the role of all our partnerships in promoting and maintaining healthy ecosystems and biodiversity, and ultimately, therefore, to the attainment of all the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

[1] According to the OHHLEP, One Health is ‘an integrated, unifying approach that aims to sustainably balance and optimize the health of people, animals and ecosystems. It recognizes the health of humans, domestic and wild animals, plants, and the wider environment (including ecosystems) are closely linked and inter-dependent’: https://www.who.int/news/item/01-12-2021-tripartite-and-unep-support-ohhlep-s-definition-of-one-health [2] https://www.unep.org/fr/node/28198

Next Year and Beyond

As we look forward to 2023, and indeed further ahead to our 20th anniversary, I am delighted to know that our avian first aid team will be back on the ground in India for the first time since the pandemic, we will be actively involved in the delivery of the excellent Interventions in Wild Animal Health course (pioneered by the University of Edinburgh, the Royal Veterinary College, the Wildlife Institute of India, the University of Melbourne and the Zoological Society of London), hopefully mentoring another up and coming wildlife vet from a tiger range state, and holding our first ever Turtle Health and Welfare Workshop.

We are also excited to continue to develop our relationship with VetCT, a veterinary corporate with whom we share core values and vision, and from whom we have received significant support, including through a fundraising initiative by their staff who are in the process for travelling remotely between our projects as they walk, run or cycle their way around the globe for us. VetCT also very kindly welcomed Matthew Rendle on to their stand at the London Vet Show in November, to give a very popular talk on sea turtle medicine. They also made a generous donation to WVI for every visitor to their exhibit, in lieu of so-often-not- very sustainable conference freebies – a brilliant initiative.

Financial review

The net income for the year was £11,715 including net income of £3,572 on unrestricted funds and net income of £8,143 on restricted funds, after transfers. This includes the recognition of transfers from endowment funds as income in accordance with the SORP.

Reserves policy

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets and endowment funds, at the year end were £87,000.

In 2015 a legacy of £249k was received by the charity in the form of an unrestricted donation. This was followed by a further £36k in 2016.

Compared to typical annual expenditure at the time of approximately £100k, it was clearly not possible to expend this donation within a reasonable time and so the sum has been treated as an expendable endowment.

In practical terms, the trustees consider plans for future activities and agree to transfer money from the endowment fund to cover project expenditure where this is not met from existing income streams. In terms of the retention of reserves, the trustees, have decided to maintain reserves of between 6 and 9 months of annual expenditure in order to allow the charity to continue to deliver services in the short term in such circumstances as a loss of sponsorship.

Based on projected expenditure of £174k this would equate to between £87k and £131k. At this stage the trustees have transferred funds of £15,899 from endowment funds to meet the lower limit of this policy.

Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2022

Statement of trustees' responsibilities

The trustees (who are also the directors for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements in accordance with the applicable law and UK Accounting Standards.

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for the year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (Charities SORP (FRS102)), and in accordance with the special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

Approved by the board of trustees on 29/6/2023

Independent examiner's statement

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:

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.

Notes to the accounts

for the year ended 31 December 2022

1 Accounting policies

Basis of accounting

These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) and with the Charities Act 2011.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

There has been no change to the accounting policies since last year. No changes have been made to the accounts for previous years.

Going concern

The trustees are satisfied that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.

Incoming resources

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when the charity becomes entitled to the resources, if it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.

Grants and donations

Grants and donations are only included in the SOFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources.

Where grants are related to performance and specific deliverables, they are accounted for as the charity earns the right to consideration by its performance.

Donated goods for resale are valued at the amount actually realised upon their sale.

Donated assets, facilities or services are valued at their estimated value to the charity. This is the price that the charity estimates it would pay in the open market for equivalent items; or services and facilities of equivalent utility to the charity.

Expenditure and liabilities

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out the resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.

Grants payable with performance conditions

Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output.

Grants payable without performance conditions

Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be recognised.

Taxation

As a charity the organisation benefits from rates relief and is generally exempt from income tax and capital gains tax but not from VAT. Irrecoverable VAT is included in the cost of those items to which it relates.

Wildlife Vets International

Notes to the accounts

for the year ended 31 December 2022

1 Accounting policies continued

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets costing more than £500 are capitalised and included at cost including any incidental expenses of acquisition. Gifted assets are shown at the value to the charity on receipt. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost on a straight line basis over their expected useful economic lives as follows: Project and office equipment: over 4 years

Pensions

The charity operates a defined contribution scheme for the benefit of its employees. The costs of contributions are recognised in the year they are payable.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.

Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal.

Endowment funds represent those assets which must be held permanently by the charity, principally investments. Income arising on the endowment funds can be used in accordance with the objects of the charity and is included as unrestricted income unless restrictions have been imposed by the donor. Any capital gains or losses arising on the investments form part of the fund. Investment management charges and legal advice relating to the fund are charged against the fund.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the accounts.

Allocation of support costs

Support costs include administrative office functions and premises costs, and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, allocating premises costs on the basis of space used, staff costs and administrative functions on time spent.
