2ND CHANCE DOGS UK - TRUSTEES’ REPORT
FOR THE PERIOD 1 JANUARY 2021 TO 31 DECEMBER 2021
Charity Number 1183073
Summary of the objects of the Charity
To promote humane behaviour towards dogs by assisting in the provision of appropriate care, protection, treatment and security for dogs which are in need of care and attention by reason of sickness, maltreatment, poor circumstances or ill usage and to educate the public in matters pertaining to dog welfare in general and the prevention of cruelty and suffering among dogs.
Summary of the main activities of the Charity
The Charity provides support for the care and treatment of sick, injured and abandoned dogs leading to dogs finding homes and therefore improvement in animal welfare. Support and advice is also given to Adopters who have given homes to rescue dogs from Cyprus. Fundraising is done to support grant applications for the work which is ongoing in Cyprus and to provide support for any emergency veterinary or rescue back up which might be needed in the UK.
Summary of achievements during the period
This Report covers the second full calendar year since 2ND CHANCE DOGS UK became a Registered UK Charity in April 2019.
During the year support, both physical and financial, was given to dogs who needed rehoming and also to dogs and their adopters who needed behaviourist and or vet support. As an organisation/charity we pride ourselves on our promise of “Lifetime Support” for all dogs who are adopted through us.
Our account with Barclays Bank is used to receive donations and to pay bills as well as our Charity’s PayPal account which is widely used and is a very valuable and useful way of collecting in donations and fundraising monies and also for transmitting money to Cyprus and other donees.
Our ability to register Microchips with PETtrac for the dogs who travel into the UK during the year is a valuable resource and Microchips are registered to the dogs’ new owners to coincide with entry into the UK.
Monies received from Easyfundraising and Amazon Smile are welcome additions to our income and PayPal Giving Fund, which also enables supporters to set up fundraisers for birthdays and special occasions with donations coming direct to the charity PayPal account without any fees being deducted, are very valuable.
Fundraising during the year has been varied with successful auctions and raffles/draws. We are blessed with supporters who are generous with their time and money particularly Jo Denton who did a Sponsored Tandem Skydive; Zena Khan who held a stall at a local Dog Show and a group of our adopters who joined our first ever Sponsored Walk Challenge “60 Miles in September”. Many of our supporters are talented craftspeople and donate for our fundraising.

A 2022 2nd Chance Dogs Calendar was produced which again featured photos of adopted 2nd Chance dogs. Calendar sales provide a major part of year-end fundraising and although successful the sale of Calendars seems to get harder year by year.
2021, although a year still affected by restrictions caused by the Corona Virus, was again a successful year for adoption of dogs. However, towards the end of the year fundraising began to be more difficult as the economy began to struggle. However overall, 2021 was a successful year.
