Chairman’s Report for East Norfolk Branch AGM 2022

The last 2 years have been challenging on a number of fronts and this has not been untypical of the issues facing all of us, we have had to deal with the pandemic and also seen increases in our costs the impact of which can be felt across all sectors of the economy.

Our branch has seen the effects of this and I think looking forward we are going to see more consequences of these various pressures as more people are unable to look after their animals and will turn to organisations like ourselves for assistance with veterinary costs or indeed rehoming them. We therefore do face a number of challenges looking forward.

The position for 2021 can best be summarised by the accounts to 31 December 2021 under Activities (page 1)

“A welfare system with the use of vouchers is in operation for people who are referred to private vet practices for procedures that cannot be carried out at our clinic, hereby a donation is made to help towards the cost of treatments. The Golden Oldies Scheme launched in 2020 to encourage the Re-Homing of elderly animals continued to grow. Our SQP flea and worm and micro chipping clinic continued despite the Pandemic restrictions. The Branch issued neutering vouchers for 181 owned animals (2020 223), for people who are financially restricted.

We re-homed 189 animals (2020 261). Mostly cats, but there were some dogs, rabbits & other small mammals; however, these activities were curtailed due to pandemic restrictions and personnel changes. The 3 shops operated to raise funds were closed at the beginning of the year but reopened in April 2021. Generally activities and services were again below normal levels due to the continuing Covid Pandemic restrictions.”

The last year has seen a number of internal matters having to be dealt with in the branch and the resignation of the branch manager lead us to undertake a strategic review of where we feel we are and where we feel we should be going as far as the branch is concerned

The main areas that we considered were:

1. To try and ease the administrative burden, there was a discussion about possible merging with another branch in order to achieve economies of scale. However, having considered this the Trustees felt this was not a suitable option and that we wanted to continue as an independent branch of the RSPCA.

2. We also had a strategic look at the individuals we employ and the work they undertake. Following this review we have now employed an Animal Welfare Manager and an Animal Welfare Assistant. Both these individuals settled down well and are dealing with the animal welfare issues excellently. I am sure the pressure on them will increase in the months ahead as more animals come into our care.

3. Coupled with this we have also been assessing and reviewing the branch manager role and are currently preparing a job description to recruit a new branch manager. The strategic review that we have been undertaking has given clarity as to what the branch managers role should be and we have a clearer picture of what we think the job will entail as we move forward.

4. We did have the sad news that the vets that we have been using to provide our medical care at the clinic in Great Yarmouth are having to terminate their agreement. Like so many industries the veterinary world is facing a shortage of vets of nurses and the trustees are currently considering what their strategy will be for dealing with this.

Our main concern has to be to ensure that animals that are in need are dealt with and the trustees will put a strategy in place to deal with this.

It is hoped that within a short period of time we will have the revised administrative and support structure in place which then will enable the trustees to ensure that we have clear medium and long-term goals

I think it is fair to say that the trustees medium term strategy is to make sure that we are financially secure and to this extent we will look to fundraising and other ways of raising monies, which will not be easy in this difficult climate. We also need to ensure we have the correct structure there to meet the challenges that we face. The trustees are confident that we can meet this medium term objective.

Long-term we need to ensure that we have a viable branch, but at the same time will consider any options available that ensure the fundamental principles of the RSPCA are adhered to. One thing that has been discussed at some length by the trustees is the incorporation of the charity and they have agreed that this is going to go ahead and should occur sometime in the current financial year.

We have for a number of years had our accounts prepared by J W Gallop, Mr Gallop is going to shortly retire and advises that he will no longer be able to prepare the accounts. The trustees are currently obtaining quotes from other accountants, and will be appointing a new accountants to prepare the annual statutory accounts for the charity in due course.

The trustees and I appreciate, that without the volunteers and the supporters the RSPCA East Norfolk Branch would have great difficulty in providing the care and support required for the animals that come into our care. I would like to thank all of you for your time, effort and dedication, as without you we could not continue with the great work that we do.
