Dogs On The Streets Ltd

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 July 2021

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 July 2021. 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

For the benefit of the public,

1) To relieve people who are in need by reason of being homeless, vulnerably housed, domestic violence, hospitalised, mental health and rehabilitation or otherwise severely affected by poverty and to relieve the suffering of animals in need of care and attention, by:

A) Assisting in the provision of free veterinary care and free essential services and items such as goods, dog food / diet harnesses, grooming, obedience, training, leads, bedding, and toys for their animals

B) Arranging foster care at our safe kennel sanctuary for their animals when they are not able to care for them or when the animal has a specific medical need

C) Re-homing in the event the owner cannot support the animal (ie in the event of death or the owner having complex needs.

D) Assisting the owner in engaging with relevant services/pathways with a view to accommodation, medical support, rehabilitation, mental health and domestic violence or any other support services that the owner may be in personal need of.

2) To advance the education of the public in general in respect of animal care and welfare for the public benefit, particularly by training those working in the homeless and service sectors.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

With regards to the charity's achievements, 2020 to 2021 DOTS was able to upgrade, acquire and lease an 80 -kennel site from April 2020 to support the foster needs as in objectives and activities - section b. This has also enabled us to support more cases that has increased since the start of the COVID pandemic.

We were able to expand our veterinary care support around the UK incorporating local councils , Hostels, and housing.

We were also able to provide street ran Vet Care via out Mobile veterinary vehicle.

We also provide specialist treatment to dogs with acute medical needs i.e. Cancer , Cruciate Repair .

We have been able to support clients and their dogs into private rented accommodation & advocate them with housing via councils.

We have been able to take on further volunteers to assist at our strand station, COVID 19 has still resulted in poor revenue and donations / incoming fund raising , and we have relied on the few large donations made from corporate companies which has supported our service during the pandemic times.

We were able to provide more vet care in private practices and specialist treatment for a dog that was involved in a road traffic accident.

We have also been able to take on further volunteers to support the charity growing and received a couple of large donations (including £20k ) from corporate companies which will go to supporting our service. Our aim is to renovate our sanctuary for foster care and add further outside kennel space and enrichment areas.

We have been providing education programmes on animal welfare and homelessness in schools/colleges for pupil age.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Dogs On The Streets Ltd

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Dogs On The Streets Ltd ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 July 2021.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of FCCA which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
