## **Governing Document** 

Charitable Incorporated Organisation – Foundation Registered 17[th] August 2020, Registered charity number 1190898. 

The charity is governed by its constitution, which will be reviewed annually and revised when necessary in line with Charity Commission guidance and approval. 

The Charity is incorporated through the legal status of a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) which means if the CIO is wound up the Trustees of the CIO have no liability to contribute to its assets and no personal responsibility for settling its debts and liabilities. 



## **Objectives of the organisation** 

For the benefit of the public to relieve the suffering of animals in need of care and attention by providing financial assistance to the owners of animals who cannot afford the services of a veterinary surgeon. 

## **Achievements, Performance and Demonstration of Public Benefit** 

The main focus of the charity during the last 12 months has been: 

- Promoting and increasing the public profile of the charity 

- Promote responsible ownership by increasing awareness of the benefits of pet insurance 

- Continue to raise funds to support the operation of the charity 

## **Fundraising and raising the charity’s public profile** 

The Covid-19 pandemic has had some impact on our ability to raise both funds and public profile throughout the entire reporting year. We have been unable to attend events and although vaccine roll-out is now underway it is unlikely that we will be able to resume our normal programme before summer 2021. 

Dedicated members have taken part in raffles, online auctions and competitions to raise funds. 

Membership and awareness through our social media page has continued to increase. 

## **Trustees** 

Trustees continue to be the back bone of the charity, there are many roles the Trustees undertake for the charity, which include; 

- Managing the online social media pages 

- Organising and attending events 

- Assisting and supporting owners when their pets are critically ill. 

- Promoting the charity 

- Undertaking review of applications to ascertain the severity of the care required 

- Communicate closely with the veterinary professionals providing care and treatment to our client’s pets 

- Fundraising 

As the charity continues to grow the role of Trustees will be regularly reviewed to ensure the charity continues to carry out activities that meet the overall purpose of the charity. 

The work achieved since the charity was founded is truly amazing. The families since we have supported from the period of Aug 20 – Mar 21 will give an indication of how busy we have been despite the pandemic. 

## **Risk Management** 

The charity does not employ staff, and does not own or lease premises which makes the financial risk very low. This financial resilience will undoubtably help minimise the impact on our finances during the covd-19 pandemic. 



Funding and fundraising continue to be a priority to ensure the charity continues to deliver activities as set out in the constitution. The charity intends to purchase PLI and professional indemnity insurance in good time for the start of attending events. 

## **Financial Review** 

The statement of financial activities provides a summary of our income and expenditure from 17[th] August 2020 to 31[st] March 2021. During our first year, we have had minimal administration costs due to covid-19, however we do expect this to increase as we start to purchase the required PLI insurance etc and plan for events. 

Going forward we will strive to ensure that well over 90% of any funds raised by kevincares2018 is spent on animal welfare activities. This is significantly higher than the charity sector average for charities of a similar size. 


## **Financial Outlook** 

Although this year the charity has spent more than the income raised this has been caused by the impact of Covid-19 on our fundraising activities. This impact has been managed by utilising some of our initial financial reserves built up prior to charity registration. 

Going forward into the 2021 -2022 period, the Trustees recognise that the impact of covid -19 will initially reduce our ability to raise funds at events, although this should change in summer 2021. In the meantime, we will continue to raise funds through our social media pages and minimise administration costs as much as possible. 

## **Future Plans** 

Over the next year kevincares2018 will resume major fundraising at events when legislation allows and it is safe to do so. 



We are constantly aiming to raise our number of followers and raise our profile to new members and widen the public knowledge of kevincares2018 and what our aims and objective are. 

We will continue to develop robust and fit for purpose policies and procedures to ensure that the governance of the charity goes from strength to strength.
