Trustees’ Annual Report

Independent Setter Rescue & Rehome

1 General.

2023-24 was another busy year for Independent Setter Rescue & Rehome.

An increase in puppies surrendered, mostly as a result of the fall in the market. Older dogs too were on the increase, bereavement being the most common reason for surrender.

Dogs with behavioural issues due to poor socialisation increased and one surrendered dog was confirmed as deaf on assessment followed by a Baer Test.

We were delighted to welcome Gillian Thomas-Price as a new Trustee , replacement for Helen Ballinger who stepped down . Gillian’s compassion and business acumen are a terrific asset to the Rescue.

2 Activities.

Fundraising via two organised walks with refreshments were yet again very successful not just in a financial way but also in contact and information sharing regarding the Rescue. The online shop via the website enjoyed a steady small income boosted by the annual calendar sales which continue to be popular.

3.Admin Costs.

Are low, related mostly to Insurance and Accountants fees. None of the Trustees received any remuneration from the from the charity.

4. Funding.

Donations for dogs rehomed have been generous. Our supporters never fail to rise to a challenge and the launch of our scheme “Sugar Face” to continue to offer support with Veterinary fees and essential care in dogs of 7 years and over has been generously supported. Social media has been a boon in being able to remain transparent, easy to contact and approachable with 3.5k followers to our Facebook page.
