One of the aims of Wolfie’s Legacy has always been, to enrich the lives of people who have previously enjoyed the companionship of a canine family member; yet because of their own disability, ill-health or circumstance are no longer considered by other shelters. 

**Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)** 

Never were we more needed than in 2020, when the country came into lockdown because of the pandemic. Now thousands of families wanted a dog. We were only too aware that many many dogs would be returned when restrictions lifted. We also realised that for a lot of "grown up" families life would never be the same again. The pandemic made a lot of people realise the importance of that word "family" and of course no family is complete without a dog. We decided to focus on the older families, those with children home from University, mums and dads who have accepted early retirement, or redundancy. They all pass the same comment, "now we are free" we want a dog. Strange when we are under restrictions, that many feel for the first time in decades that they are free. 

Our role has been to find that extra family member and we have had many many families thank us for doing just this. Examples of happy adopters such as Dionne and her daughter; a one parent family who adopted Silka a blind dog from North Macedonia. Silka has made them proud by bonding with her family enough to become their "jogging buddy". Then there’s Milly, again partially sighted. Milly is a therapy dog for the two autistic teenagers in Lisa's family. Cooper, again blind and the companion to Jocelyn who can no longer work due to a brain injury. The list continues. 

Sadly our plans to work with ex-servicemen, haven't as yet come to fruition; like a lot of things in 2020 they have been put on the back burner. Regardless, this has been a successful year for homing dogs with needy people. To close, I will quote the words of a couple who have adopted a deaf dog from Korea. "He makes life better, just by being in it". 

2021 will see the start of our plans to set up a first-of-its-kind rehabilitation and adoption facility, specifically for dogs with disabilities.

**Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** 

Volunteers involvement during this last year has been massively hindered by COVID-19, however despite these difficult time volunteers have been able to support us by fostering dogs and helping to fundraise online. 

We have had to cancel all awareness campaigns this year such as our attendance at Dog Fest and awareness & sponsored walks. You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: 

- policy on grantmaking; 

- policy programme related investment; 

- contribution made by volunteers.
