A noto from the Chalr of Trustees.
As Chair of Trustees, for Rain Rescue, It is with great pridè that I present our Annual Report. This
report reflects not only the challenges we laced throughout the year bul also the remarkable
achievements made possible through the amazing efforts of our dedicated team of staff and
volunteers.
Al the start of the year, we welcomed our new CEO, Trish Trish joined us wilh a wealth of
experience in animal welfare, management and commercial expertise. Rain Rescue has an exciling
future ahead under her leadership and I look forward lo seeing whal has been achieved in 2025.
In the past year, we have continued to fulfil our mission of rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming
animals in need whilst overGoming Significant challenges. Despite these ongoing cha118nges posed
by the economic climate affecting pets owners, the amendment to the Dangerous Dogs Act, placing
XL Bully types on the list, and the financial demands placed on animal welfare organisations, Rain
Rescue has made a significant impact in the lives of the 334 animals we have cared for.
Our volunteers and staff have been the backbone of our organisation. Their selfless dedication and
countless hours of service have made an immeasurable difference. We are Incredibly grateful for
their commitment and the positive impact they have had on the lives of animals and families In
Rolherham and beyond.
Financially, we have worked hard to ensure the sustainability of Rain Rescue and are greatly
appreciative of the support provided by Batlersea Dogs and Cats home, Ihat has allowed us to
improve our services and create a solid future. Through fundraising efforts. granls. and the
generosity of our supporlers. we have managed to maintain our operations and even invest in new
initialives to enhance our seNices

Chair's report continued
Looking ahead, we are excited about the future. We plan lo implement new programs aimed at

whilst also increasing our capacity lo care for more cals and dogs.
Thank you to everyone connected lo Rain for their continued support and belief in our mission.

Activi18s undertaken during the period
Hel
those in need
Soulh Yorkshire is an area of high deprivation and Ihe need lor our charity has n8ver been greater.
For the first half of the year the kennels were closed due to being unable lo recruit Qualified staff so
rescue worked with cats only.
From May we recruited a Kennel Manager and have reopened the kennels which have seen a large
number of dogs coming into the centre SD far. coming from a varied source, strays surrenders and a
larger number than ever before of people not being able to keep pets in rented accommodation. The
cost of living is seeing far more people asking for help with food bills and veterinary help.
All dogs and cats we rehome are health checked, vaccinaled, treated for fleas and worms,
microchipped and neutered, as well as provided any additional Irealments. procedures, operations or
lesls Ihal are deemed necessary lo give Ihem a good qualily of life. We perform on-line home
checking of potential homes. have in depth conversalions with potential adopters and have adoption
agreements in place. RAIN provides lifetime support for all adopters and their adopted pets, whilst
also encouraging and educating owners to take 8ccounlability in being responsible for their pets
wherever possible.
We have been part of the Cals Protection neutering scheme ulilising our vet and vel room 185 cats
have benefilted from the scheme
Our Challen
es
The sector is needed more than ever. The number of animals being abandoned and surrendered is
increasing. This is largely due lo the cost of living crisis and the amount of animals during covid that
are now still coming through the sector. We are seeing many more with separation anxiety and also
people surrendering when they can't find a property that will take pets. People have less money to
spend and the numbers of animals not having any preventative health care has increased.

Our challen
es continued
In 2024 we continued to see a decline in public donations. We continue to receiv8 SUPPOrt from
Baltersea, however Ihe year grant was pushed back and so il appears there is a significant
drop in income in 2024. Th6 Pets at home grant which we received in 2023 was also completed
in 2024. We did apply for further funding in 2023 but sadly we were unsuccessful.
The end of 2024 our new CEO was appointed and as we move into 2024125 the staff team has
developed with the introduction of a fundraising team.
During 2023 we had to stop the intake of dogs due to the lack of trained staff. This also had an
impact in the10ss of adoption f88s and donations.
We were thankful lo receive the following granls within the year..
Galimor8 St8ffies - help towards staffordshire bull terriers and their fellow br88ds in nged
Alarjorie Coot8 Animal Trust - a grant towards c8t neutering
The Walker Trust - a grant towards the operation of our vet room

(2023.. £2241. The 8allersea year grant of £158.753 was delayed until after th8 finanGial year, this
has the bigg8St impact on our drop in income for this year.

be found in note 14.
Al the year end. the unreslricled fund balance stands al £245,682 with restricted funds of £85,104 and
designated funds of £168,273 giving the total year end fund position of £499,059 {2023.' £616,372).
Reserves Policy
The Trustees have reviewed the charity's requirement for free reserves, ie those unrestricled
funds not invested in tangible fixed asse15, designated for specific purposes or otherwise
committed.
The Trustees consider that the ideal level of reserves should be 3 months running costs plus any exit
fees and a contingency of £20,000 which is in the region of £108,463. The figure includes any
potential redundancy costs. The Trustees are of the opinion Ihat this is sufficient should the
charity need to wind down.
Free reserves at 31 May 2024 not invested in tangible fixed assets slands at £159,324. The
reserves policy will be monitor&d annually by the Board of Trustees.
