Achievements and erformance p
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
Via continued and persistant fundraising efforts , the charity has enabled rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming of neglected, abandonded and injured animals. These activities have led to placements in various homes giving a new life to these animals and in many cases, essential companionship to elderly and isolated individuals. This in turn often leads to a more frequent and positive contact with others socially. We have reached out through the community and enhanced the quality of life of people via practical and financial support to assist retention of their beloved pets during this difficult time.

| The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act)) and that an independent examination is needed. 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 Commission (under section 43(7)(b) of the Act), and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. My examination was carried out in accordance with 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. In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the trustees have not met the requirements to ensure that: proper accounting records are kept (in accordance with section 41 of the Act); and accounts are prepared which agree with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act; or 2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
