Objectives and Activities

	SORP reference
Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document	Para 1.17	For the public benefit to relieve the suffering of working animals in need of care and attention by reason of sickness, maltreatment, poor circumstances or ill usage, and to educate the public in matters of animal welfare by providing grants to organisations, and in particular to The Jarjeer Mule and Donkey Refuge.
Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts.	Para 1.17 and 1.19	Donations have been received and grants made to Jarjeer Mule and Donkey Refuge and to Maroc a Cheval to carry out animal welfare needs throughout Morocco. The main promotional work, including videos, has been through social media. Leaflets have also been regularly distributed including a dedicated QR code. Sufficient funds have been raised to facilitate the building of specialist stables for horses brought back from the point of near death through starvation during the pandemic when the tourist industry in Morocco collapsed. Six stallions and a mare have now retired to the Jarjeer Refuge. The clinic that we helped finance last year now offers emergency treatment for equines in the community. We have continued to provide medication and protective clothing.
Statement confirming whether the trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit	Para 1.18	The Trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission. We are satisfied that this requirement has been met in terms of relief to abandoned animals and poor families (who form a substantial sector of the population as a whole) who could not

afford to keep their animals during the pandemic.

Achievements and Performance

	SORP reference
Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole.	Para 1.20	We are satisfied that our achievements this year have made a substantial difference for working animals in Morocco, many whose lives have been saved from starvation resulting in a painful death but also to the wider public as a whole who have avoided the public health risk of equine corpses being left to rot in public areas. Review of the work we have supported in Morocco shows very clearly that the efforts of the organisations we support have made a difference both in terms of cruelty awareness and a willingness to change in terms of the treatment of working animals. We had monthly reports from Jarjeer Mule and Donkey Refuge who, in turn have been helping other smaller charities in Morocco during lockdown. We are satisfied that admissions to the Refuge has doubled during this last year as many donkeys have been abandoned, some of them in a very poor state. Sadly there have been several deaths due to old-age or such serious injuries that the vet has had to

intervene. The Refuge has also provided services to many Caleche horses in Marrakech who were starving as a result of the absence of tourists and owners loss of income. The Refuge continues to take mules and donkeys from various parts of the country such as Casablanca, Rabat, Tangier and south of Agadir. They undertake a considerable amount of outreach work and advise owners in surrounding area. Calls for assistance from Moroccans is increasing.
