The trustees present their report and the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022.

TAG PET RESCUE
TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022 [CONT]
- To relieve the financial hardship of persons who are unable to afford the fees for spaying and neutering through the provision of a subsidised service.
Achievements and Performance
Our old office had become dangerous and a hazard so we decided the time had come to have a new office and this was finally completed in August 2022.
Along with all animal rescues we have been inundated with requests to take in rabbits for rehoming so we have built extra Wendy houses to accommodate as many as possible. We currently have 41 in our care.
The proper re-opening of our shops post Covid, the return of our Open Day and continued donations has allowed us to maintain a sound financial position.
Financial Review
Income was received from sanctuary and charity shop donations, legacies and Government grants. The result for the year was a surplus of £30,436 which is considered satisfactory. Reserves at the year end amount to £251,011 which is gives an adequate cushion, although competition from other charities will always remain a concern.
Plans for Future Periods
Next year we plan to amend our rabbit houses/ exercise area. We are going to move the existing path to the back of the exercise area so the rabbit houses and concrete runs will be attached to the grass area. Thus allowing them free access.
We have also been given a massive shed which we will convert to a kitchen/storage area for rabbits and guinea pigs. We will then convert the existing kitchen into a superior indoor home for our guinea pigs. Depending on time and finances we will look to replace some of our cat pens.
Fixed Assets
The movement in fixed assets is shown in the notes to the financial statements.
The company’s surplus for the year, after taxation, amounted to £30,436. [2021 – Surplus £110,085]
Independent Examiner
The independent examiner, Peter R Smith, has indicated his willingness to accept re-appointment for the ensuing year and a resolution will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF TAG PET RESCUE
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022 which are set out on the following pages.
RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144[2] of the Charities Act 2011 [the Charities Act] and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145[5][b] of the Charities Act; and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINATION
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from the Trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a true and fair view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S STATEMENT
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention
-
[1] which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: * to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 130 of the Charities Act;
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act have not been met; or
[2] to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

TAG PET RESCUE
NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below and have been consistently applied throughout.
a] Basis of Accounting
The 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 accounts 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) issued on 16 July 2014 and with the Charities Act 2011.
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.
The accounts present a true and fair view and the accounting policies adopted are those outlined in note 1.
No changes to accounting estimates have occurred in the reporting period.
No material prior year errors have been identified in the reporting period.
The adoption of FRS 102 has not resulted in the change to any fund balance to those previously stated.
b] Income
Items of income are recognised and included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when:
-
the charity becomes entitled to the resources
-
it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and
-
the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities or income and expenses.
Grants and donations are only included in the SOFA when the general income recognition criteria are met.
Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the assets could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so. In this respect it is considered impractical to attach a value to the numerous small second hand items regularly donated for sale in the charity’s shops. The income from sale of these items is recognised under income from trading activities. There were no donated services or facilities in the reporting period.

TAG PET RESCUE
NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 [CONT.]
The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.
The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report.
c] Expenditure and liabilities
Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.
The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period.
No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts.
The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts.
Tangible Fixed Assets
All fixed assets are initially recorded at cost.
Depreciation has been calculated to write off the cost of tangible fixed assets over their expected useful lives using the following rates:
Motor vehicles and equipment
- 25% straight line
Operating lease agreements
Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged against income on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
Stocks
There are no purchased stocks of goods for resale. Donated goods for resale are only considered to have a value at the point they are sold. The value prior to this is too uncertain.
Debtors
Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received.
