Hopton Rehab & Homing Centre Report of the Trustees (continued) For the year ended 31 July 2022 Achievements and Performance On 19July 2021, the UK government lifted restrictions of coronavirus-related legislation. The guidance on worklng from home wa5 also lifted. Over the summer a gradual return was planned for employees to return to the workplace. The Welsh Government lifted most legislatlon on the 7 August 2021 followed by Scotland on the 9 August. Northern Ireland wos later. The 8Tadual retufn to work meant that the rehomin8 of horses could also begin, and Hopton Rehab and Homlng IreferTed to as HRHI was allowed to continue with l)ome visits to rehome horses after that date. This was a welcome retLITn to norm as so mary horses had remained at the Centre. With the pandemlc now comlngto an end, It was most unfortunate to flnd that wlth the return to work for some came the request to retum a horse and requests for new horses to come to the centre. We were able to look atfoster homes for some as short-term solutions and tried to a¢commodate as many horses as possible. It was noted at the beginning of this year that we were now responsible for some 151 horses, elther rehomed and stlll "owned" by HRH or fostered or at the Cent￿. Our volunteers were able to return and support us and unlTrke many Char￿leS we were fortunate to retaln many of our volunteers after the pandemic. We were very grateful for thelr ¢ontlnued support. Our volunteer pro8famme enabled us to fundraise and supportthe yard work at the Cent￿. We were also able to contlnue wlth home visits to those IKJr5es who had been rehomed. Our major Costs a8ain for this year were rental of 3 yards, veterinary and farrber costs alon8With fodder and staffing expenses to run the yard operation. We continued to look for a sultable single yard with 8razlng to reduce the above costs and also reduce travel ￿$ts too. It was also considered to be best for the welfare ol horses In our care for them all to be at one slte. We therefore started looking for a suitable solutlon. Fundralsln un As we We￿ collertSng preloved equine equlpmen¢ rugs. riding wear and saddlery we looked for a suitable retail outlet and set up a popup shop which enhanced our already successful car boot sales. These were a key source of income for the Charfty. Volunteer5 were instrumentsl in ensuring the success of the car tr*)Ot sales and tabletop sales whlch were publicised locally ènd through our social media platfomi We were fortunate to also have donations through sponsored activitles by staff members, volunteers and continued contributions from indrvidual giving and donations through our website. The ongolng rehoming programmes also ensured monthly donat￿nS contlnued. Hopton Rehab & Homing Centre Report of the Trustees (continued) For the year ended 31 July 2022 d Foundations Our volunteer was successful in gaining fund5 of £IOk from SIT Peter O'sullevan Trust, The Childwick Trust funded a further £IOk and Pets at Home Foundation £68¢￿. This wa5 also supplemented later in the year by a Jean SalnsburyAward also for £IOk. We would not have been able to support the number of horses in our care without them. At the same time it was noted that the number of thoroughbred Iracingl horse5 comlng into our care had Rreatly Increased and these types of horses needed greater rehabilitation tlme and pro¢edures. A5 always we are enormously thankful to the Trusts and Foundations who have supp)rted us. We were notified that there was a potential legacy opportunity from an individual who had pa$5ed away In November 2021. On 10 June. 2022 Trdcy Cooper, Lin Marriot Lodge and volunteer Lynette Arnott presented to the executor of the estate and this was ￿te1ved well.
