**SAVING THE SURVIVORS LTD (REGISTERED NUMBER: 09272243)** **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 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 31 March 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** 1 - Sponsored Endeavours. Supporters take on challenges to raise funds for Saving the Survivors, this year we had a group of cyclists make their own t-shirts which they wore in a number of cycling events, they raised funds and awareness for Saving the Survivors. A number of other supporters ran races, hiked and swam in sponsored challenges in aid of our cause. 2 - Social Media. We use our social media channels to connect with our supporters and to gain new support. Social media is our best way to connect with the public, we are able to fundraise on these platforms such as FaceBook and Instagram, as well as motivate supporters to raise awareness and funds themselves. 3 - Events. We organise our own events and attend events organised by others. We attend many events where we are able to have a table/stall where we can sell merchandise, collect donations and connect and educate the public with the cause. We will be delivering our Mt Kilimanjaro trek later in 2022 which has been planned for a number of years but postponed due to covid. Events in general have been less due to covid, but we hope that these will be a much larger area for focus as the world returns to some form of normality. 4 - Corporate and School partnerships. We invite companies and schools to adopt Saving the Survivors as a partner charity to benefit from their fundraising. We support the organisations by providing materials and even visiting them to help connect with their staff and/or pupils and relay our message. The charity's purpose for public benefit is to advance the public's education by promoting and highlighting the conservation and protection of natural environments for the animals of the world as well as relieving the suffering of animals and maintaining facilities for the care and attention of such animals. ## **Achievements and Performance** Our fundraising has delivered wide ranging work in Africa, from the rescue of an orphan Rhino called Kwayera, who's rescue we funded, including his helicopter evacuation from the bush to an orphanage. The relocation of our Rhino survivor Seha and his introduction to 2 cows. Our emergency and proactive fieldwork. To the donation of Binoculars and thermal vision scopes to a number of anti poaching organisations. We have continued our partnerships with companies like Papertrophy, Kleed and Espero, who donate proportions of their profits to us, as well as making new partnerships with companies like Pulsar, Cyber Ducks and many more. Early in the financial year we managed the separation of STS Mozambique from the main organisation, as this operation in Mozambique needed its own defined identity, so it has been rebranded as Mozambique Wildlife Alliance, and is now completely separate to STS and will deliver conservation alongside the Mozambique government. We have explored new social medias, such as DeSo and looked into the world of Virtual Reality to both engage with new supporters and find new technologies to further our fieldwork. With the separation of the Mozambique operation we have been able to focus on South Africa and looking to extend our reach into other countries. We have again grown in regards to our visibility globally and our fundraising, we remain strong following Covid and feel this is behind us now and we can push forward stronger than when the pandemic hit. We are amongst the most respected, knowledgeable and trustworthy wildlife conservation organisations in Africa, this is displayed in the partnerships we have, the work we deliver and the sustainability of our operations. Page 1 **SAVING THE SURVIVORS LTD (REGISTERED NUMBER: 09272243)** ## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022** ## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Plans for the Future** We will continue to build our existing social media channels, whilst always looking for new platforms to connect with the public and raise increased awareness and donations. Social media remains our number one avenue for outreach and education, but now Covid is hopefully behind us, we will look to expand on our events and face to face interaction with the public. As well as this we look to start putting on and attending events again, as mentioned earlier we will be completing our Mt Kilimanjaro trek to raise funds later in 2022. We will continue to connect with corporate partners either to benefit from their CSR activities by becoming a benefitting charity or through relationships where they either donate products that we can use in the field or they donate a proportion of their profits to Saving the Survivors. ## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document** The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006. ## **REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE DETAILS Registered Company number** 09272243 (England and Wales) **Registered Charity number** 1165070 ## **Registered office** Suite 12 Silk House Park Green Macclesfield Cheshire SK11 7QJ ## **Trustees** P J Naden Miss L U Norgren T T Wood D Black A Nicholls ## **Independent Examiner** Helen Tidyman BFP ACA FCCA DPC Accountants Ltd Stone House Stone Road Business Park Stoke-On-Trent ST4 6SR Approved by order of the board of trustees on ............................................. and signed on its behalf by: 21/12/2022 .................................................................
