TAR

This year has been challenging due to covid and our founder Julia Gould experiencing litigation from an ex-trustee. We will cover these points individually.

Overall, the year has seen little change in relation to the Gull Rehabilitation Centre with hundreds of baby gulls being admitted.

New covid safe protocols were introduced to keep all safe.

As we did not close our activity at the centre we were inundated with calls from other service providers to help their users during lockdown and their service was closed, we helped as many as we could.

We complied with lockdown of our charity shop and used the staff to help our vulnerable adults as most we outside the system they did not immediately get support in shopping etc even though some were clinically vulnerable.

During this time an agreement was made by our founder Julia Gould with the ex-trustee and case settled. Although sceptical that the ex-trustee will honour the agreement, this was signed by the founder and from the 27[th] November 2020 the founder has 1 year to raise the money. As it is the home of Bird Aid we have agreed to a fundraiser and follow guidelines will pay over any money raised to the founder, who will pay off the ex-trustee and when his restriction is removed from the title of Hydeaway a procedure will start to eventually give Bird Aid a secure future at Hydeaway. A Just Giving page has been created to fundraise for this

Ultimately if the money cannot be raised the site of Hydeaway will have to be sold we anticipate this to be approximately £170000 but as the ex-trustee has no engaged with the valuation process the court agreement has meant if has moved to a court appointed surveyor to determine the value. It seems a huge amount of money to raise, every option will be investigated and only when the final date of 27[th] November 2021 is reached will any decisions be made.

We managed to fit in covid safe respite break for 12 vulnerable adults that was paid for with a grant from the Ernest Klienwood Chartable Trust

Fortunately, we have not had one case of covid 19 in our organisation and when the shop was allowed to reopen, strict covid safe measures were introduced to maintain public, staff and volunteer safety.

We would like to thank our many supporters and will do all we can to save the home of Bird Aid

Independent Certified Accountants' Review Report to the Director of Eastbourne Bird Aid CIO

We have reviewed the financial statements of Eastbourne Bird Aid CIO for the year ended 31 March 2021, which comprise the Income Statement, Balance Sheet and the related notes. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 105 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable to the Micro-entities Regime'.

This report is made solely to the company's director in accordance with our terms of engagement. Our review has been undertaken so that we might state to the director those matters that we have agreed with him in our engagement letter and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's director for our work, for this report or the conclusions we have formed.

Accountants' responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion based on our review of the financial statements. We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (ISRE) 2400 (Revised), 'Engagements to review historical financial statements' and ICAEW Technical Release TECH 09/13AAF 'Assurance review engagements on historical financial statements'. ISRE 2400 also requires us to comply with the ICAEW Code of Ethics.

Scope of the assurance review

A review of financial statements in accordance with ISRE 2400 (Revised) is a limited assurance engagement. We have performed additional procedures to those required under a compilation engagement. These primarily consist of making enquiries of management and others within the entity, as appropriate, applying analytical procedures and evaluating the evidence obtained. The procedures performed in a review are substantially less than those performed in an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion on these financial statements.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the financial statements have not been prepared:
