Achievements
performance
It has been another very difficult year due to elements out of our control.
The minimum national wage increase at the start of April had a massive
affect on our day to day running, and unfortunately, with no way to
recoup the difference, we had to cut staff hours.
Determined not to let the dogs lose out, we actively recruited new
volunteers to try and cover the vacant shrfts.
The cost of living crisis has Gontinued to hit our three shops negatively,
21though tho amount of support we have in people donating things to sell
is incredible.
Summary of the main
achievements of the charity
during the year
Our retirement scheme working with the Greyhound Board of Great
Britain gathered a little bit of pace with quite a few dogs finding homes
which in tum meant we were able to offer a space for others. This was
achieved by arranging things such as specialised walks for all of our
Greyhounds along with other Greyhound owners, and 'meet and greets,
at pSace such as our partnered Pets at Home stores.
Looking ahead we aim to continue with the progress made and look at
ways we can find homes for some of the other breeds we have in our
care.
