Contribution made by
volunteers		 Para 1.38 As well as the trustees who volunteer their
time to ensure the daily running of the
rescue, we have several volunteers who
come on a regular basis to help. Covering
set days and working in all weathers with the
animals in our care. Carrying out a range of
tasks such as cleaning, feeding, socialising
and walking.
Some of our volunteers and trustees spend
time working with our dogs and cats in need
of rehabilitation and getting them to the point
where they can be rehomed.

We have built up a reliable team who volunteer their time to make sure the charities day to day running. We also have several people who come on a semi regular basis to walk our dogs which is also of a great help.

Achievements and performance

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 only became a registered charity at the
start of March 2020 but in the time from then
till year end of Dec 2022 we homed more
than 300 dogs and 100 cats. All overseas
dogs or cats coming to us were
neutered/spayed if old enough and received
any relevant or needed veterinary treatment.
And any UK dogs or cats coming into our
care were also neutered/spayed if old
enough unless otherwise advised by a
veterinary professional and received any
necessary veterinary treatment.
We have taken on and work with both dogs
and cats in need of some rehabilitation prior
to homing. And have been successful in
homing a number of these animals. We do
have some feral cats who remain in our long
term care along with a few dogs who have
been with a while but we continue to work
with to prepare them for homing.
This work is in line with our objective which
is to carry out our work for the benefit of the
public to relieve the suffering of cats and
dogs in the UK and abroad in need of care
and attention and, in particular, to provide
and maintain rescue homes or other facilities
for the reception, care and treatment of such
animals.

Tendercare Rescue Notes to the Accounts

Expenditure

Taxation

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

Freehold investment property

Investment properties are measured initially at cost and subsequently at fair value at each balance sheet date and are not depreciated. All gains or losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise.

Stocks

Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Donated items of stock are recognised at fair value which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay for the items on the open market.

Trade and other debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings or current liabilities. In the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the company's cash management.

Trade and other creditors

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

Tendercare Rescue Notes to the Accounts

Research and development

Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred.

Foreign currencies

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period.

Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are recorded at the rate of exchange on the date that the transaction occurred.

All exchange differences are are taken into account in arriving at net income/expenditure.

Leased assets

Where the charity enters into a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease.

Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to charity are classified as operating leases.

Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the charity at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet date as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the charity's policy on borrowing costs.

Assets held under finance leases are depreciated in the same way as owned assets.

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis.

Pension costs

The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the charity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the charity has no further payments obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the charity in independently administered funds.

Receipt of donated goods, facilities and services

All donated goods, facilities and services received are recognised within incoming resources and expenditure at an estimate of the value to the charity.
