## **Report of the Trustees for the period ended 31[st] March 2020**
## **Objectives and activities**
The objectives of the charity as registered with the Charity Commission are as follows:
- i. To advance the education of the public in the subject of hedgehog preservation
- ii. For the benefit of the public to relieve the suffering and distress of hedgehogs in need of care and attention by fundraising to provide a rehabilitation service for sick, injured and orphaned hedgehogs with the aim of releasing such hedgehogs back into the wild wherever possible.
We use a range of methods to provide education to the public about hedgehog preservation on a local, national and international scale. We have spoken to community groups of all ages and attended community events. We are active on Facebook and use this to engage with the public as well as other hedgehog charities and rescue centres.
We have been actively exploring potential sites for a hedgehog hospital. Unfortunately to date, we have not secured suitable premises. We provide benefit to the public by addressing concerns for hedgehogs in trouble. Where this is out of our region, we offer advice and links to find local hedgehog rescues. For hedgehogs in our region, we link to a local network of home carers for hedgehogs, who provide rehabilitation and safe release wherever possible. At present we do not provide charitable grants to these individuals.
## **Achievements and performance**
Our attendance at events during financial year 2021-2022 was limited by restrictions and cancellations due to coronavirus. We attended the ever popular Mill Road Winter Fair in 2021 and we have led activities with children of various ages in the local community to raise awareness and interest in helping hedgehogs. We have spoken to community groups and continue to raise awareness more widely through campaigns on Facebook.
We were fortunate to receive a charity place for the London Marathon for 2020, which was deferred to October 2021. This was an important opportunity for us to fundraise and raise awareness.
We have also fundraised through online and local sales of donated, handmade and branded goods.
## **Hedgehog hospital**
We continue to explore options and continue to link to home carers for hedgehogs in the interim. When we identify a suitable site and have provisional agreement, we intend to fundraise specifically for capital funds.
## **Public benefit**
The Trustees confirm that they have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Charity Commission in exercising their powers and duties. The public benefit of the Charity’s activities is to raise awareness of the endangered status of hedgehogs in the UK and to provide information about how to preserve this species.
## **Financial Review**
4
This is the third year that the charity has been in operation.
We do not pay any staff and we do not hold premises. However, we do incur some administrative costs for software for accountancy, customer relationship management and IT security. This ensures that we can fulfil our legal obligations to protect the personal data of our supporters and maintain accurate financial records for Charity Commission returns and taxation purposes.
At the end of the reporting period, the charity has adequate funds to continue to operate throughout the next financial year and continue to pay for attendance at community events. Our longer term aim is to raise funds to build a hedgehog hospital, but at present we do not feel it is appropriate to build a restricted fund for this purpose in the absence of the offer of a suitable site. We hold reserves to be used for this purpose when we are able to move this project forward. We do not have concerns about the charity’s financial stability at this point.
Charitable accounts have been prepared using Receipts and Payments and are attached separately.
## **Structure, governance and management**
Cambridge Hedgehogs was formed in April 2019 as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation and operates under the constitution dated March 2019 as registered with the Charity Commission.
We have not recruited any new Trustees since formation. When new Trustees are required, selection will be undertaken by a democratic vote by the Trustee board.
We certify that the information held in this report is accurate to the best of our knowledge.
