Objectives and activities for the public benefit
Constitution
Tale2Tail is a registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation and is governed by the rules of the Tale2Tail constitution dated 9 November 2017.
The Constitution of the Charity provides that the objects of the charity are:
- To promote for the benefit of the public the conservation of endangered wild animals in their natural habitat and their protection from extinction including, without limitation, the preservation of Asian and African elephants, rhino, giraffe, cheetah, big cats, pangolin and orangutans.
We believe stories can change the world.
- To advance the education of the public, in particular children under the age of 16 years, on matters relating to animal conservation, protection of animal habitats and biodiversity, preservation of the national environment with a view to increasing awareness of the risks of extinction caused by hunting and the ivory trade.
By telling children the true story of the cost of ivory, we can ensure elephants will still be a reality in the wild when those children are reading stories to their own children.

Responsibilities of Trustees in Relation to the Financial Statements
The trustees are required by the Charity Act 2011 to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity's financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
To select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
To make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
To state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice
-
have been followed subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
To prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue to operate
The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charity Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
