the charity as set out in its
governing document|Para 1.17|To promote humane behaviour towards
animals by helping our sister charity,
ROLDA, to provide appropriate care,
protection, treatment and security for
animals which are in need of care and
attention by reason of sickness,
maltreatment, poor circumstances or ill
usage and to help educate the public in
matters pertaining to animal welfare in
general and the prevention of cruelty and
suffering among animals. Romania has a
huge stray dog problem, with an estimated
2.5 millions dogs, roaming homeless at any
one time.| |Summary of the main
activities in relation to those
purposes for the public
benefit, in particular, the
activities, projects or
services identified in the
accounts.|Para 1.17 and
1.19|ROLDA UK supports the rescue efforts in
Romania, including the management of two
rescue shelters in and around the town of
Galati. ROLDA UK aids the activities of
ROLDA Romania by providing the UK public
with the opportunity to support Romanian
stray dogs via adoption, sponsorship or

has been supporting rescue efforts by
ROLDA in Ukraine.| |Statement confirming

volunteers who have supported ROLDA UK,
from the UK, with administration and
adoption tasks.| |Other||Our adoption team was significantly slowed
due to the Ukraine war and a ban on dogs
entering the UK, if they originated from
Ukraine or Romania. We still have a full
time volunteer who manages the process
end to end, ensuring that all dogs brought
into the UK are found safe and loving
homes. Due to an increase in exposure of
ROLDA due to our rescue efforts in Ukraine,
we have made amazing contributions to
ROLDA (£11,810), which we are really
proud.
Our two shelters care for approx 600/700
dogs at any one time so care costs are high
and we have taken in many Ukrainian dogs
in this financial year.| ## **Achievements and Performance** ||SORP reference|| |---|---|---| |Summary of the main

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** The charity's main objectives and principal activity are to raise awareness of ROLDA Romania and the ongoing plight of Romanian stray dogs (and other animals) which is estimated to be 2.5 million. ROLDA UK is a branch of ROLDA and ROLDA UK supports rescue efforts in Romania including managing two rescue shelters in and around the town of Galati. ROLDA UK aids the activities of ROLDA Romania by allowing the UK public to donate towards our rescue work and sponsor or adopt a dog. ROLDA UK is continuing to develop ways to support the Romanian parent charity. It is currently establishing a fostering network which will free up more space in the shelters and allow dogs to travel to the UK and decompress before being rehomed. This is an exciting development because rehoming has a higher chance of failing if the adopter hasn't met the dog. We expect this to increase the number of adoptions and we plan to fundraise within the UK to raise money for transportation costs to the UK. We have also developed a donor management programme with a dedicated relationship manager for supporters of a certain level. ## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** ## **Fundraising activities** The charity's principal source of funding is grants and donations via the website and adoptions. Our donations have risen organically after ROLDA Romania's profile has increased due to their recent rescue work in Ukraine. This is the same for grant applications. We are delighted with our contribution to this vital cause this finical year. As a relatively new charity the main area of activity has been the raising of awareness within the UK population by advertising and promotion of the charity. The charity has partnered with pet insurance provider Petplan which allows the charity to offer discounted insurance to ROLDA dog adopters earning 10% commission on each policy. ## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** ## **Reserves policy** Our reserves policy is 6 months of running costs, which based on expenditure for 2021/2022, is £9k. ## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** ## **Governing document** The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity. ROLDA UK, Registered Charity, No 1162690, is governed by a constitution adopted on 1 September 2015. ## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** The Executive Committee, who are the trustees for the purposes of charity law, are elected to serve for a period of one year after which they must be re-elected at the next Annual General Meeting. During the financial period covered by these accounts there has been no recruitment of new trustees. Page 1 **ROLDA UK** ## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022** ## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Organisational structure** At present the Executive Committee has two members. The day to day responsibility for the provision of services rests with Gemma Hebden who is responsible for ensuring that the charity delivers the services specified. ## **REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE DETAILS Registered Charity number** 1162690 ## **Principal address** Suite 9273 PO Box 4336 Manchester M61 0BW ## **Trustees** Ms E Costin Ms G Hebden ## **Independent Examiner** A J Syddall M.A., A.C.A.

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act. ## **Independent examiner's statement** I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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. 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.
