BARLEY GREYHOUND SANCTUARY
Registered Charity No. 1189765
Annual Trustees Report
July 2022 – June 2023
The Barley Greyhound Sanctuary Trustees present their third annual report.
We currently have 16 Greyhounds looking for their forever homes and 9 sponsor Greyhounds who live with us permanently at the sanctuary due to medical / temperament problems that mean they can’t be homed but can live long and happy lives in the safety of Barley. We very sadly lost sponsor dogs Frank and Jason during 2023. They are remembered with roses and memory stones in our memorial garden.
Between July 2022 and June 2023, we took 44 Greyhounds into our care and found loving homes for 41 during the same period. Both figures are up on last year but still sadly down significantly compared to pre-covid numbers. The continued cost-of-living crisis understandably seems to be having a massive effect on adoptions. We are as always still incredibly proud that we’ve been able to help the number of dogs that we have this year and hope that adoption enquiries will rise again in the coming years. Since Barley Greyhound Sanctuary became an independent Charity, we have found 131 Greyhounds forever homes.
We said a sad farewell to our Trustee Jan Hewlett who has moved away from our area. She has 2 ‘Barley’ Greyhounds at home and will continue to support our work and help at events. We welcomed Howard Keeling as a new Trustee, he has been a volunteer with us for many years and currently has 3 ‘Barley’ Greyhounds at home. We are sure he will be a huge asset to our team.
Our total outgoings for this period were £71,019, this is up by £7,914 on last year with our total income being £72,032 which is also up on last year by £8,707. Going forward we will still rely heavily on donations to be able to continue the work that we do to help Greyhounds retiring from the racing industry.
We continue to suggest a guideline donation of £200 from adopters and this helps towards the cost of the items and homing pack that each of our dogs go home with. We are fortunate that many adopters give generously with their adoption donations. We are registered with Easy Fundraising and Give as you live.
In January we were lucky to become charity partners with the Pets Foundation again, so we have been in our local Pets at Home store raising awareness throughout the year. Their support really is such a massive help to us. We attended the Barleylands county show and the Animal Aid festival to raise awareness to Greyhounds. This year we hope to get out to more events to help more Greyhounds find their forever homes, raise awareness to Greyhounds and what fantastic pets they make and to help increase our income. We are already booked to attend the East Anglian Game & Country Fair in April and the Hertfordshire County show in May.
Trustees – Anne Gransby (Chair), Hayley Wademan and Howard Keeling.
Independent examiner – Debbie Clegg.
