Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 28 February 2022

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 28 February 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

To relieve the suffering and distress of animals who are in need of care and attention by reason of sickness or because they are strays or they have been abandoned, neglected or maltreated. In particular by the provision of a rescue service and re-homing service and foster homes for temporary accommodation of such animals. To educate members of the public on matters concerning animal welfare.

Public benefit

The paragraphs below set out our activities, achievements and performance during the year, which are directly related to the objects and purposes for which the charity exists. The charity achieves its principal objects and purposes through taking into its care dogs and other animals which are unwanted, lost or abandoned and then providing all necessary care until such time as an appropriate alternative home can be identified.

Volunteers

Each year, Rainbowdogrescue relies upon the help of willing volunteers. This is not valued in the financial statements. It is estimated that in the current year this would be equivalent to approximately 1,000 hours. If this was valued at the national minimum wage rate (which at the year end was of £8.92), the value of these services to Rainbowdogrescue would be in the region of £8,920.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

The purpose of the charity is to provide the provision of life time care to animals whether they have been retired, bequeathed or require long term foster care, the latter involving those animals with specific requirements relating to behavioural problems where kennelling is inappropriate. The charity also facilitates the rescue and rehoming of animals which have been received through being unwanted, abandoned, and ill-treated or through local authority stray dog contracts.

In all cases the charity operates to the highest level of animal welfare care, consistent with ever changing statutory requirements within the funding constraints typically experienced by small to medium sized animal charities.

Shop income has increased this year This is due to a year reasonably free from closures enforced by the COVID-19 pandemic, of which there were numerous such closures in the previous year. Consequently this year, shop income has returned to being the charity's main source of income. Donations have dropped this year however and no grants have been received this year either.

Overall the income of the charity has slightly fallen this year, which although disappointing is not surprising given the testing times that were suffered because of the pandemic and more recently the increases in the cost of living. However, the charity has achieved its objectives for the year and we are as always extremely grateful to those people that have made donations to the charity.

The support of our volunteers is a valuable resource. Their support ranges from animal care to fundraising and we are grateful for their support. We have continued to benefit from a good number of people volunteering. We are also able to continue to offer one of our long term volunteer 6 hours paid work in our charity shop.

Gifts in kind: We are grateful for the donations of animal food and other goods including animal beds, blankets and toys which we have received.

We intend to continue to build on the strong foundations we have made over the last few years, which unfortunately stalled last year due to the pandemic. We are now able to expand to enable us to take in dogs whose owners are too old or too ill to continue to care for them, which will ease the worry for them and their families.

Unfortunately during the year, the charity's shop suffered a break in, which resulted in around £1,000 being stolen from the premises.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position

The charity has continued its good work during the year and enjoyed another reasonable year financially. The total income for the year is £48,065 (2021 - £49,176). This includes donations of £15,638 (2021 - £32,432) and other trading activities of £32,427 (2021 - £16,744). Costs for the year are £44,150 (2021 - £39,491). Costs are tightly controlled by the charity. The surplus for the year was £3,915 (2021 - £9,685) which has resulted in the accumulated reserves at the end of the year being £30,047 (2021 - £30,132), all of which are unrestricted reserves.

Principal funding sources

Rainbowdogrescue runs financially from income generated from shop sales, from fund raising activities and general donations.

Investment policy and objectives

Rainbowdogrescue currently has no investment policy, all monies received are held in the principal current account which is not interest bearing.

Reserves policy

Rainbowdogrescue currently has no reserves policy as largely income matches expenditure for most of the year.

FUTURE PLANS

Our aim for this year is to get more involved in helping homeless dogs, by donating dog food plus any veterinary treatment needed for them. Also we are taking on more fundraising to make people aware of our cause which will include trying to get more volunteers and fosterers to help us move forward with our cause. Due to the currant climate we are being asked to help dog owners cover the cost of their pet being in desperate need of veterinary care, this is something we hopefully will be able to help with.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Rainbowdogrescue

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Rainbowdogrescue ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 28 February 2022.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  2. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

  3. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
