## **TRUSTEE REPORT FOR THE YEAR TO 31 MARCH 2021** We are pleased to report on another year of operations in which we moved our operational base. We are grateful for the continued support of both new and old friends and would highlight or first full year of our Monthly Draw which under Lesley Pizarro’s management engages our supporters on a regular basis. We are also able to report a significantly improved financial position after last year’s operational loss, with an annual surplus of £ 7,942. Our Reserves (now £15,661) are designed to ensure our dogs could be looked after in the event of the charity ceasing however there is little doubt that in times of increased general uncertainty having a strong Reserve is no bad thing. Our income for the year remained steady with 85% of the increase being due to passing-on some of the increased flight costs (see below). Though we do ask for a donation for our dogs the level we ask has been below what it costs for us to prepare and fly the dogs to the UK - but we recognize and are grateful that a number of new owners continue to support us. This year’s vet fees are lower as we had to hold dogs longer and so had a lower dog turnover: most vet fees are normally incurred when we first rescue a dog. Our new kennels are smaller than before so our kennel fees have reduced. The daily kennel rate has not changed since LCDR started. We are looking to see if we can find suitable foster homes in Cyprus and the UK. We need to update you on how COVID and BREXit have affected us. The COVID lockdowns in both Cyprus and the UK restricted the number of dogs we could re-home and also significantly increased the cost of flights as they became even harder to find than usual. We remain cautious about further COVID strains and their potential unavoidable impact on us – however our finances have never been so strong and we are fortunate to have dedicated supporters who understand the difficulties we face. Our annual calendar also fell victim but we are producing a 2022 calendar thanks to Louise Wiltshire The UK left the EU on 31 December 2020. Pet passports are still required and unfortunately there are now more forms to be completed and with them, increased costs. Though we took the precaution of stocking drugs and food in the event of a supply chain problem there was only minimal disruption. Simon is still undergoing surgery from his accident but nevertheless he and Clare were forced to move due to their lease expiring. We have built new kennels at a cost of only £463 as a volunteer built them for us. We close thanking our old and new supporters and of course our adopters.

The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to: - examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act - to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act - to state whether particular matters have come to my attention ## Basis of independent examiner’s report My examination was carried out in accordance with the 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 you as 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 next statement. ## Independent examiner’s statement In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the - 2011 Act and • to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met or (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached Name: Mr Paul Sachs Address: Honeycroft, Week St Mary, Devon EX22 6UL Date: 1 November 2021 LCDR Audit 2020-21 **LOVE CYPRUS DOG RESCUE** Charity Number 1162877 **ACCOUNTS FOR 12 MONTHS ENDING 31 MARCH 2021** |**INCOME**
