Objectlves and actlvltles The RSPCA Cotswolds, Gloucester & District Branch (the Charity) is an unincorporated charitable association and a separately registered charity affiliated to the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty lo Animals Ilhe Societyl, carrying out direct animal welfare work in the Gloucester and South Cotswolds area in accordance with the policies of the Society. All charities in England and Vvales have charitable aims that are based on providing public benefit and comply with the Charities Act 2011. The charity trustees pay due regard to Charity Commission guidance on public benefit. Preventing cruelty and promoting kindness lo animals promotes moral benefit lo the community as a whole and helps people who are vulnerable and in need with the care of their animals.

ROYAL SOCIETY FOR THE PREVENTION OF CRUELTY TO ANIMALS COTSWOLDS, GLOUCESTER & DISTRICT BRANCH INCORPORATING THE COTSWOLDS DOGS AND CATS HOME TRUSTEES. REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 Rehoming The Charity finds new homes for animals in need lo people willing and able lo have a companion animal. We operate a Supported Adoption Scheme for animals that need long-lemi veterinary support enabling these pets lo live comfortably as well as benfitting from a loving home. Whilst it is recognised that companion animals provide immeasurable benefits to people's physical and mental health, it is considered the provision of pets as a subsidiary to the main charitable aim of this servi￿, which is ID reduce animal suffering. A policy lo charge a reasonable adoption fee for animals aims to highlight the ongoing personal and financial commitment of pel ownership. 11 would not be In the best interests of animals and therefore would fall outside of the charitable objects, lo ￿-hOMe lo those who could not afford them. Pet Retreat The Charity launched ils Pel Retreat Pilot Project in 2022. The scheme is designed to support animals belonging lo people who are fleeing domestic abuse or struggling to Care for thèir animals because of homelessness. Vvorking closely with third paty agencies we supported 11 animals through the scheme, 500/0 of the animals we cared for were reunited with their families and the remaining 500kn were signed over by their families, who sadly made the decision that they were unable lo meet their pets needs in the longer-lemi. Outreach Clinics During in the last quarter of 2022 the charity worked at developing relationships with third parties who work and support vulnerable people living wthin our community and sharing their life with a pel. It had become evident that some of the charity's services are not easily accessible lo the more vulnerable sector5 of ils community. By working with third parties who support vulnerable groups of people the chaiily has sel up a number of outieach clinics and support facilities. The outreach work is very much in its infancy but there is already clear evidence of need and of the positive impact on the welfare of animals. Flnanclal Revlew, Achlevements & Plans for the Future The charity relies primarily on the income from its charity shops, fundraising and legacies to support its charitable aclivilies. The Trustees are pleased lo report that the finanual position at the end of the reporting period shows an increase of £394,05912021.. £284,4361 lo a net asset position of £5,886,05412021.. £5,491,995). The key aim of the charity is to ensure that no vulnerable animal wthin our community is wilhoul a safe space or is left to suffer because of a lack of veterinary Irealmenl. The charity's affiliation with the National RSPCA means that it works closely with RSPCA Inspectors who deal with the worst cases of abuse. neglect and abandonment. The Cotswolds Dogs & Cats Home has gained an outstanding reputatlon for its work with animals that need a little bit more care in a quiet, calm environment. In 2022 40°h of animals we cared for came lo us through the RSPCA Inspectors, 10°/o of these were long stay case animals, suffering the worst effects of abuse and neglect. The legal process means that case animals are often long slay animals. The approach lo caring for these animals al the home together with the support of a network of foster homes means the charity can ensure these animals are given the care and environment they need to slowly recover from their ordeal and lo ultimately find wonderful families lo share their lives with.

We design procedures in line wth our responsibilities, outlined above and on the Financial Reporting Council's website, lo delecl material misststemenls in respert of irregularities, including fraud. We obtain and update our understanding of the entity, its aclivilies, ils control environment, and likely future developments, including in relation lo the legal and regulatory framework applicable and how the enlily is complying with that framework. Based on this understanding, we Identify and assess the risk5 of material misstatement of the financial stslemenls, whether due lo fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive lo those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. This includes consideration of the risk of acts by the entity that were contrary lo applicable laws and regulations. including fraud. In response to the risk of irregularities and non-complian￿ with laws and regulations, including fraud, we designed procedures which induded.. Enquiry of management and those charged with govemance around actual and potential litigation and claims as well as actual, suspècted and alleged fraud", Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance", Assessing the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations considered to have a d1￿cl material effect on the financial stslemenls or the operations of the enlily through enquiry and inspection,.

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, the￿ is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misslatemenl in the financial slalements or non-compliance wrth regulation. This risk in¢reases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transadions reflected in the financial statements. as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. other matters Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared financial slalements In accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities".
