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:

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 of 2020 - 2021. We have now since started to operate again and attend events, however this is still not up to full capacity. We are hoping by 2022 / 2023 we will be back up to full capacity.

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 but on a slower scale, this is something we will look at promoting.

Trustees

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

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 Mar 21 – Mar 22 will give an indication of how busy we have been despite the pandemic.

Funds Transfer (prior to Charity registration) is monies raised prior to Kevin Cares becoming a registered charity

Donations received have come from individual benefactors

Income from fundraising activities has been generated from raffles, tombolas etc held at various events

Fund raising expenses are the costs of running stalls at the fundraising events

Administration costs represent specific items paid. The charity adminsitration relies upon the work of unpaid volunteers.

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 does have PLI and professional indemnity insurance in good time for the start of attending events for the period of 2022/2023.

Financial Review

The statement of financial activities provides a summary of our income and expenditure from 1[st] April 2021 to 31[st] March 2022. During our second year, we have had minimal administration costs, however I do expect this to change over the coming year as we will need to increase our advertising.

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 2022 - 2023 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 2022. 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.
