STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing Document

Prickles Hedgehog Rescue is a registered charity constituted under a Deed of Trust (dated 10[th] April 2013). Registered charity number 1151912.

Governance

The charity is governed by the Trustees and meetings until the Covid Pandemic hit us. The Charity is beginning to return to its normal functions and meeting will be held quarterly or more frequently if it is deemed necessary. Additional Trustees can be appointed by way of an annual general meeting. All newly appointed and existing Trustees are reminded regularly of their responsibilities.

Risk Management

The Trustees have identified the major risk which face the charity and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate the effect of those risks.

Organisation

The Trustees continue to discuss the financial affairs and management of the charity and to leave the day to day running of the charity to its Founder and Manager Jules Bishop and Trustee Cate Sampson. In the event of any need to acquire capital items, this is presented to the trustees for their decision.

The Aims and Objectives of the charity continue to be:

The impact of the Covid 19 Pandemic

The 23[rd] March 2020 – 10[th] May 2020 saw the first UK National lockdown due to the impact of the Covid 19 Pandemic. The Charity is still feeling the impact of this as staff/volunteers are affected by contracting the virus. There have also been funding implications for the Charity as the economic situation in the UK has worsened.

We were unable to hold our Annual General Meeting due to the restrictions in the number of people that could meet.

Our Trustees were unable to meet face to face but we managed to hold telephone conversations where they were updated on the Governance of the Charity as well as the operational side.

Achievements

The Charity has had a positive year and is fully back up and running following the Covid Pandemic.

Prickles have cared for over 490 hedgehogs during the last year, releasing 398 overwintered hedgehogs back to the wild by mid-March. We have achieved a 77% success outcome rate, thanks to the commitment and hard work of our Duty Managers, Volunteers and the continuing support of the Small Animal Veterinary Practice, Bristol University. Our volunteer numbers have improved with an ongoing recruitment campaign. We also encourage young people from local schools/colleges to volunteer who are taking part in the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme.

With the increased work load and related outgoings, fundraising has been a continuing priority. We have formed a fundraising group and have successfully run a series of events enabling us to meet day to day running costs. These include:

Centaur Services have been extremely generous in providing us with supplies of cat food for the hundreds of hedgehogs that we have had through our doors at Prickles. They have also donated many items of stationery for our busy office.

Cloud Direct are sponsoring us, providing and paying for our internet and office telephones.

The Trustees are actively considering additional ways of raising funds in the next financial year.

Prickles has successfully continued to raise public awareness of conservation issues relating to hedgehogs, and the way individuals might support our work the Charity’s monthly newsletter, Prickly News and Social Media messaging.

Prickles are keen to be involved in encouraging and educating young people. We are now working in partnership with Bridgwater/Cannington College, Kings of Wessex School and Churchill School. Langford, Bristol University and Bristol Zoo Students who are taking the Animal Welfare Courses NVQ Level 1, 2, 3 and the Duke of Edinburgh Awards scheme at Gold, Silver and Bronze level undertake practical work with the Charity. We currently have 10 students working with us. We also go into the assemblies of local schools and give talks/presentations to the children.

Community Groups are inviting us to give talks on the work of the Charity.

The Trustees believe the Charity to be working towards achieving its objectives. They are mindful of the challenges ahead and look forward to further progress 2022/23.

Financial Review

The total income for the period including the carry forward from the previous period of £22.975.84 was £101,447.20.

The total expenditure for the period was £83,760.04.

Independent Examiner’s Report

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner’s statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. 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 no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:

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

Explanation

We received additional donated deep cleaning antiviral and anti bacterial cleaning items from one of our supporting companies during this period.

This was due to less activity largely due to Covid 19 with a reduction in marketing for hedgehog sponsorship and other hard copy information / educational materials.

Historically our Duty Managers were paid for a proportion of the working day but due to the increase in management responsibilities and additional work during Covid this was revised.

Our Utilities Provider inexplicably changed our direct debit during this period, the over payments were eventually largely refunded during the next period.

In addition the landlord made changed to the water billing for the connected units leading to an increase in the water tariff for our leased premises.

Our Veterinary Provider increased both the consultation charges and a number of the medications we use at the centre.

A number of cheaper products that we had used for many years had been removed from the market place for example our standard lung worm treatment and replaced with an updated product which is significantly more expensive. Our Veterinary provider also started to charge a higher tariff to procedures where hedgehogs needed to be anaesthetised for standard procedure e.g. abdominal and limb inspection, bladder manipulation to remove excess urine in feeding females , wound examination etc. ( Hedgehogs frequently curl on examination hence the need tor anesthetic ).

The Charity Shop was closed for significant periods in the prior year due to lock down.

We received an additional unexpected donation of £10.000 and a number of additional donations from Wildlife Trust Funds anxious to support Wildlife Charities during the pandemic and the period leading out of it.

Independent Examiner’s Report

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner’s statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. 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 no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:

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

Explanation

We received additional donated deep cleaning antiviral and anti bacterial cleaning items from one of our supporting companies during this period.

This was due to less activity largely due to Covid 19 with a reduction in marketing for hedgehog sponsorship and other hard copy information / educational materials.

Historically our Duty Managers were paid for a proportion of the working day but due to the increase in management responsibilities and additional work during Covid this was revised.

Our Utilities Provider inexplicably changed our direct debit during this period, the over payments were eventually largely refunded during the next period.

In addition the landlord made changed to the water billing for the connected units leading to an increase in the water tariff for our leased premises.

Our Veterinary Provider increased both the consultation charges and a number of the medications we use at the centre.

A number of cheaper products that we had used for many years had been removed from the market place for example our standard lung worm treatment and replaced with an updated product which is significantly more expensive. Our Veterinary provider also started to charge a higher tariff to procedures where hedgehogs needed to be anaesthetised for standard procedure e.g. abdominal and limb inspection, bladder manipulation to remove excess urine in feeding females , wound examination etc. ( Hedgehogs frequently curl on examination hence the need tor anesthetic ).

The Charity Shop was closed for significant periods in the prior year due to lock down.

We received an additional unexpected donation of £10.000 and a number of additional donations from Wildlife Trust Funds anxious to support Wildlife Charities during the pandemic and the period leading out of it.
