## **Report of the trustees (incorporating the directors' report) for the year ended 31 October 2025** 

## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities** 

The trustees (who are also directors of 1 Dog At A Time Rescue UK for the purpose of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Annual Report  and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any 

- material departures disclosed  and explained in the financial statements; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable  company will continue in operation. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

## **Small company provisions** 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions for small companies under Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees on the unaudited financial statements of 1 Dog At A Time Rescue UK.** 

I report on the accounts of 1 Dog At A Time Rescue UK for the year ended 31 October 2025 set out on pages 2 to 12. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and independent examiner** 

The charity's trustees (who are also the directors of the company for purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts.  The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act), and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts under section 145 of the Act; to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act, as amended; and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's statement** 

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 statement below. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- (i) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: 

   - to keep proper accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act  and 

   - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities 

have not been met; or 

- (ii) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **Notes to  financial statements for the year ended 31 October 2025** 

## **1. Accounting policies** 

The principal accounting policies are summarised below. The accounting policies have been applied consistently  throughout the year and the preceding year. 

## **1.1. Basis of accounting** 

The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the Statement  of Recommended Practice 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities' issued in January 2015 (SORP(FRS102)) and  the Companies Act 2006. 

## **1.2. Cashflow** 

The charity has taken advantage of the exemption in FRS1 from the requirement to produce a cashflow statement  because it is a small charity. 

## **1.3. Incoming resources** 

All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is entitled to the  income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. The following specific policies are applied to  particular categories of income: 

Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and gifts and is included in full in the statement of  financial activities when receivable. Grants where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific  performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified.  The value of  services provided by volunteers has not been included.Gifts donated for resale are included as incoming resources within activities for generating funds when they are  sold. 

Income from investments is included in the year in which it is receivable. 

## **1.4. Resources expended** 

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which  cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates. 

Costs of generating funds comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income and the costs of trading  for fundraising purposes 

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services   for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an  indirect nature necessary to support them. 

Fundraising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of  disseminating information in support of the charitable activities. 

Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity and include  project management. 

## **1.5. Tangible fixed assets and depreciation** 

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost less residual value of each asset over its expected useful life, as follows:
