Section D                      Achievements and performance 

**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

During 2021, Second Chance Akita Rescue adopted out 30 Akitas. We continue to grow our membership rates on social media and this has a direct impact on the number of people we can reach and support. This has continued to grow year on year. 

We do not dismiss helping a dog because of its age, health or behaviour and we are proud to be one of the few rescues that operate this policy. We provide support and where necessary behaviourist advice to all our adopters, this in return keeps our return rates low.

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out
under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I
have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission
under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

applicable listed body]]. Delete [ ] if not applicable.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have
come to my attention in connection with the examination (other than that

respect:
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130
of the Charities Act. or
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements
concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities
(Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement
that the accounts give a 'true and fairf view which is not a matter
considered as part of an independent examination.
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.
