March 2012

For the period 6[th] April 2021 to 5[th] April 2022 Lucky’s Legacy Rescue engaged with 1 shelter in Romania (Solca Saved by the Vet), mainly for the purpose of supporting with the care of the animals and rehoming to safe and secure environments where they will be free from future harm.

Lucky’s Legacy Rescue volunteers and lead trustee Estelle Wilkinson continued to visit the shelter in Romania to ensure that the facilities and care of the shelter staff met with our high expectations of standard for animal care. This also allowed us to assess dogs which enabled a more robust matching process for rehoming.

Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)

Lucky’s Legacy Rescue has a robust rehoming application process, which involves pre-screening application, telephone interview and home check. All rehoming decisions are made collectively by the rehoming team and there are no unilateral rehoming decisions made. This ensures the avoidance of any conflict of interest between potential adopter and volunteer and ensures that a wide variety of perspectives are taken.

Lucky’s does not rehome adult rescue dogs to families with children under 4 years old to ensure the safety of the children and prevent dogs that may have unknown histories becoming triggered in an environment where young children reside.

In addition to the care and rehoming of the animals, Lucky’s Legacy Rescue also raises funds to support spay & neuter campaigns. These campaigns are critical to getting to the root course of the stray dog population issues in Romania.

All Lucky’s Legacy Rescue trustees have signed and adhere to the Charities commissions ‘Declaration of Eligibility and Responsibility’

Section E Financial review

Lucky’s Legacy Rescue has a Reserves Policy which can be viewed by Brief statement of the request at any time. charity’s policy on reserves Our policy outlines our intent to where possible spend funds raised as soon as possible. The use of reserve funds held allows us to draw down funds in the event of an emergency such as sudden or unexpected veterinary treatment for an animal in our care, for example lifesaving surgery. Out reserve funds also allow is to provide back up support to adopters if UK rehoming and/or rehabilitation is required. By maintaining some reserve funds this means that the day to day running of the charity is not disrupted in these eventualities. We still plan to acquire a functional asset of land within the UK to support even more rehabilitation locally. Reserve funds continue to be held to support this vision.
