Our objective is to be able to assist and
support any member ofthe public who are in
difficulty with a Border Terrier. This may be
through re homing or by providing whatever
assistance as may be required in order to
enable the Border Terrier to remain in its
home if that course is deemed to be in the best
interest of the dog as well as the owner.
Whenever possible we achieve this objettive.
Fund raising 15 mainly initiated by our
supporters. Although government restrictions
introduced in March 2020 have been lifted
many are still apprehensive about face to face
contact there have been a number of very
successful open air events, dog walks camping
groups etc. which have raised significant
amounts of money. A number ofvery
successful virtual fund raising events have also
been held. Calendar Sales, both our own as
well as that of the BTPosse Group have
remained strong. Our Website store continues
to perform well.

Statement explaining the
policy for holding reserves
stating wthy they are held
P3ta 122
General reserves are not restricted to or
designated for a particular purpose. The
level set 15 reeWed annually by the
trustees. giving due consideration to the fact
that expenditu can be unpredictable in the
short term and that our main source of
income is reliant almost solely on the
goodwill of ènd donations from our
SUPPOrter5. ReseNes are therefore set to
protect the charity from a sudden decrease
or cessation of income at such a level that
we would be able to continue our work
caring for Border Terriers in need of shelter
or veterinary assistance or rehoming.
