## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT**
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 30th September 2021
.
## Constitution and Objects
The Trust is an unincorporated body. The charitable objects of the Trust are rescuing, fostering and rehoming of dogs in need of help and helps to educate people so they can keep their dogs and look after them properly and enjoy them. Pro Dogs Direct operates a non -destruction policy.
## Organisation
The trustees meet on a regular basis at which the funds available are discussed and also the recruitment of fosters to help with the rehoming of the variuos dogs that are currently in care with the charity.
## Reserves Policy
It is the policy of the Trust to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the free reserves of the Trust, at a level that equates to approximately six months unrestricted expenditure. This provides sufficient funds to cover management and administration support costs and to respond to emergency applications for grants which arise from time to time. Unrestricted funds were maintained at this level throughout the year.
## Risk Management
The trustees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the Trust faces and confirm that systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen the risks.
We confirm that the accounts comply with the Trust Deed and the Statement of Recommended Practice 2005, Accounting and Reporting by Charities.
Signed on behalf of Pro Dogs Direct (1115647).
D Woodford.

**REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER**
**2.**
## **PRO DOGS DIRECT**
**I report on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 30th September 2021, which are set out on pages 3 to 5.**
## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner**
As trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts; you consider that the audit requirement of Section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act) does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts (under section 43 of the Act), to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under section 43(7)(b) of the Act) and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **Basis of independent examiner's report**
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. 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 I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.
## **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 41 of the Act; and**
- **to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the 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.**
