Animal Concern Cumbria Trustee5' Annual Report Ira¥lW Year ended 31 December 2023 Achlevements and perform?nce STRATEGY AND PLANNING Last year saw changes to the strategic plan following our new build activities. This led us to consider new financial aims and developments for 2023. We continued to Inc￿aSe our staff numbers ensuring that we had sufficient qualified people who could work with us to maintaln the aims of the charity as well as continue to care for the animals. We focussed on delivering animal welfare support based on local needs. This has led us to bringing in Our own neuterirt8 scheme tar8etln8 male cats. We contlnued to support the spay neuter and release scheme for feral tat colonies within the local area. Our plans for financin8 our aims and principles are outlined in the strategic plan. Our financln8 strategy wlll contlnue to ensure that our core work Is maintained and sustalned. our objects are rnet and that we make effective use of all financial support received. As with many other organisations workinÉ within this sector Animal Concern Cumbria has faced nurnerous challenges throughout 2023. We have sOU8ht bids lor our new kennel block and have secured a contratt with Easy Anlmal Ltd, to provlde us wlth top of the ran8e kenne15 to en5￿￿ we have the best facllities for our lovely residents. Generous legacies have meant that we have been able to look at and plan for woik wlthin the community provSdinB affordable Vet care and a place where we can edutate the community on better health care for their companion animals. The Management Team continue to ensure that new facilitle5 are functional and modern. paying respect to being environmentally 5U5tainable and c05t effective. The Board of Trustees are confident in the future of Anlmal Concern Cumbria and its ability to contlnue servlng the Community and its animals in need. CONTINUING OUR WORK In 2023 Animal Concern Cumbria IACCI was faced with the impact of the change Sn law In respect of the XL Bullles. Thls meant that a declsbon had to be taken early on whether we would accept these dogs In, or if we would regretfully decline their entrance into the charity's care.Thls was agonising for the team at ACC and unfortunately. being a rehoming char4ty, the decislon was made not to allow any XL bully to be admltted to the centre as rehomlng them would not be possible. Thls would have added additional pressure not only for the 51aff handling these do85. but the financial pressure we would have had, to comply with the law. We have in place new assessment checks to ensure that no dog is mistakenly refused the 5UPPOrt of ACC, a5 well as ensuring we are not put in a posltlon where we have been left with a po55lble XL bully. Whilst we continue to push forw3id with our 51te development, our staff and volunteers have ensured that OIJT animals in care are looked after and enriched to the highest standard and that any medical issue is dealt with swiftly and accufately and any aftercare Is fulfilled. We have successfully continued to support the ¢at, catch. neuter, and release project ol feral colonie5 in the area. This reduces the Spread of disease such as feline flu. We also introduced a new scheme where we offer a voucher for those who can satisfy means tested eligibilities to subsidise neuter and microchipplng up to two male cats per household. The owners, contrlbution is £10 pald to the vet at the time of the appointment. This is in the early stages of release, and we have seen a small number of owners making use of thls scheme. Learning for the staff and volunteers contlnued Ihroughout 2023 wrth some of our staff going to Batter5ea Oog5 Home for tralning. Their feedback wa5 very posttive. and we will look fO￿ard to continuing the opportunrties for other staff members as they arise. Our new cat pods have been successful, and we have seen an increased intake in the number of cats and litters of kittens coming in. Kittens are successfully rehomed once old enough. We contlnue our efforts to support families in the reductlon of litters by spaying the queens. Where there are high numbers of un-neutered adult cats In a single household, we work with the families to rehome the older adult cats. Th&s

The charity has contlnued to 5UPPOrt the rehoming and welfare of companion animals through direct home.to-home adoption. fostering and providing temporary care Whe￿ owners have been admitted into hospital or Social care, or emergency accommodation in domestic abuse situations. We have utilised food and equipment donation5 and food banks t0 5UPPQrt these anima15. Some have been rehomed via our 'reverse matching" scheme that links animals with potential adopters alfeady tn our 5VStem. This reduces time In the adoption process which in turn reduces stres5 for the animal. We acknowledge the vf(al work ol our fosterer5 and extend our gratitude to those who at short notice took In pupplesldogs that could not cope wtth being in kennels. Where we have admitted a difflcult dog, some who came to us very scared of the world. we engaged and worked closely wlth an anlmal behaviourist to get the best out of dogs. Where we have worked to retrain difficult dogs, they have been successfully re-homed and our staff are gaining confidence every day from the trainin8 done and learning passed on from the behaviourist. In addition to the daily work with animals at our rehomlng centre.
