## Chairman’s Report 2025 

RSPCA Medway West Branch has spent a year being devoted and dedicated to a dramatic revamp. 

This year has seen a truly successful welfare policy supporting neutering in the area and working closely with the Inspectorate. It has been a joy having Inspectors updating us on our support in committee meetings. 

A food bank that was desperately needed in the area, we have used social media and days in Pets at Home to spread the news of our food bank. The size of the food bank has grown to a level we never expected. With the support of Amazon donations shared with us by Kent North West Branch and Pets at Home Lifelines we have been able to keep up with the demand. 

We have got on top of some well needed maintenance; the fresh painting is mostly complete with just final touch ups. The ball pool roof has been replaced, new flooring in the clinic meets compliance and an updated fire system. 

October we were pleased to show Vanessa Whitfield who is the Lead Vet for the Branches of the RSPCA around our consult rooms and discussions were had about getting ready to open our veterinary clinic. 

During the year our BPM Amanda Rooney left our Branch as her area had changed. We were introduced to Natalie Eisel who then left the role at the end of 2025. At present we have not got a BPM allocated to RSPCA Medway West Branch. 

Kevin Morton has done an amazing job as Acting Branch Manager. He has updated systems and computerised us making us efficient. Kevin Morton has been working hard on gaining us the CIO status where we have suffered a few delays. But we are pleased to say that we are moving forward with the CIO status and hopefully soon we will have news from the National Society and our new charity number. 

The committee is excited for 2026! 

H. Thomas 

Chair 



## **Treasurer Report 2025** 

Well, what can I say regarding the changes we have seen over the last year to say it’s been momentous is an understatement! 

The clinic has been through a total refurbishment from top to toe and now we can see our thoughts and ideas coming into the final phase. 

With the very generous legacy from June Finch of £72,750 we have been able to completely rebuild and almost refurnish to a high standard. These legacies will have a huge impact on our future, and we can’t thank these special people and their families enough. 

What a memorial to June Finch that we can now help more people in the community than ever. We are looking forward to searching for a vet and veterinary nurse. 

Even though we have not been able to have a running practice over the past year, we have continued to fundraise by the means of quiz nights, kindly run and hosted by Marc Carr and Sue Smith, the pair make the events a fun night while raising money for the Branch. 

We still managed to have our Christmas, Easter and Summer fund raising events well done to staff and volunteers for their efforts to make this happen. 

Our charity shop in Strood continues to bring in an amazing sum! The shop has also seen changes in the way it operates such as the use of card machines, but these changes have been for the better for us all. It’s really been a year of work of highs and lows but together as one team we are nearly there.

## **Trustees Report** 

## **Organisational Structure** 

The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was founded on the 16[th] June 1824 and granted the “Royal” prefix by Queen Victoria in 1840. The current constitution of the RSPCA was created with the adoption of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act 1932. The work of the society is governed by the RSPCA Act and by the Rules of the Society. Membership of the Society is by subscription and may be on a life, annual or junior basis. The Society is managed by an elected Council who, subject to the rules, control the affairs, funds, property and proceedings of the Society. They are assisted in the administration of the Society by a central organisation, headquarters and branches. 

The Branch is governed by a committee who are trustees of the Branch. They have individual and collective responsibility for the management of the Branch and its funds. Subject to the overall supervision of the Society, the committee controls and monitors all the fundraising and animal welfare initiatives of the Branch including the work of The Parsons Memorial Clinic. 

## **Objectives and public benefit statement** 

The RSPCA Medway West Branch is an unincorporated charitable association and a separately registered branch of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (the Society), 



carrying out its direct animal welfare work in the areas of Chatham, Rochester, Gillingham and the Isle of Grain. 

The objectives of the Branch are to promote the work and objectives of the Society – to promote kindness and to prevent or suppress cruelty to animals by all lawful means – with particular reference to the area of the Branch, in accordance with the policies of the Society. 

The trustees have reviewed the outcomes and achievements of our objectives and activities for the year, to ensure they remain focused on our charitable aims, and continue to deliver benefits to the public. **We have complied with the duty under the charities act 2006 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Commission** . 

## **Advancement of animal welfare** 

Under the Charities Act 2006, the advancement of animal welfare is recognised as a distinct statutory charitable purpose. This legislation and the Animal Welfare Act of the same year indicate an acceptance by society that treating living creatures with compassion has a moral benefit for the public as a whole. Whilst this public benefit is clear, it is sometimes difficult to quantify and must be balanced against any detriment. 

The Branch’s animal welfare work, although local in nature, benefits society at large, and also aims to help people in need with the care of their animals. The next section of this report highlights the Branch’s main activities and demonstrates the benefit provided to the public _(in italics)_ . All our charitable activities, as described in more detail in the following pages of this report, focus on promoting kindness and preventing or suppressing cruelty to animals and are undertaken to further these purposes for the public benefit. 

## **Charitable activities pursued for the public benefit** 

Details of the Medway West Branch activities can be found within the individual Trustees reports. 

We support our local Inspector[s] by [ _taking in, free of charge, mistreated or abandoned animals, including pets whose owners suffer ill health or financial difficulties or pass away_ ] _. The Society’s Inspectorate (as well as providing education, information and advice) rescues animals in distress and enforces laws against the cruel mistreatment of animals in England and Wales by bringing prosecutions. This work is key to ‘the prevention or suppression of cruelty’ part of the RSPCA objectives and promotes humane sentiments towards animals which involves moral benefit to humankind as a whole._ 

We provide subsidised veterinary treatment for animals which are sick or injured and belong to local people on low incomes. We do this through our welfare scheme. _This work benefits those on means tested benefits by giving them financial help to obtain care for companion animals in need of veterinary treatment._ During 2025 we treated 498 animals. 

We provide subsidised neutering of companion animals for those in the Branch area on low incomes. We do this through our neutering scheme. _This work helps to control dog/cat populations through neutering and benefits those on means tested benefits by giving them financial help to neuter companion animals, thereby promoting responsible pet ownership._ 

We respond to enquiries (both direct and via the Society’s national call centre) from the public about animals locally. _The public benefits from knowing that we can intervene to assist animals in need._ 

We offer free animal care advice at our clinic and on our website. _The public benefits through the promotion of responsible pet ownership_ . 



Within the terms of our governing document, we support the National Society, other RSPCA branches and other local animal welfare charities by taking in and rehoming animals from other Branch areas and boarding case animals for the National Society if required. 

We provide volunteering opportunities for those who wish to support our work, including trusteeship, fundraising, providing work experience placements for schools, colleges and back to work initiatives. _This benefits local people and companies by providing the possibility of doing work which is compassionate and rewarding._ 

The cost of maintaining the Clinic, providing appropriate levels of care for animals awaiting rehoming and undertaking pro-active animal welfare in the local community meant that the Branch spent £235,083.00 during the year. 

The Branch funded this activity from incoming resources of £218,293.00 this included over the counter income from the clinic itself, adoption donations, fund raising, legacies and interest. 

## **Risk Analysis** 

The Branch has carried out a review to identify major risks and has taken steps to mitigate them. (Original copies of the Risk Management Policies and Reserves may be viewed at The Parsons Memorial Clinic) 

The major risks identified are: 

1. Loss of reputation through error or fraud. 

2. Loss of income through error or fraud. 

3. Insufficient trustees for the Branch to continue. 

4. Insufficient volunteers for fundraising and animal care activities. 

5. Insufficient funds to cover the costs of the clinic and other animal welfare activities. 

It is the opinion of the Trustees that the Branch’s policies, procedures and controls are adequate to mitigate financial and reputation loss through error or fraud to maintain the future financial viability of the Branch. Steps are to be taken to address the issues of the recruitment of further trustees and volunteers. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The Branch holds reserves in order that levels of service provided for animal welfare may be maintained should there be a reduction in incoming resources. The Branch has designated funds of £37,000 for shop and clinic repairs, computer upgrades and for our welfare and veterinary assistance. 

Reserves in this context mean funds that are freely available for the Branch’s general purposes after all commitments have been met. 

The Branch has unrestricted reserves of £205,489.00. 

Such reserves represent approximately 10.5 months expenditure based on gross expenditure, minus funds spent on repairs and upgrading. 

It is the opinion of the Trustees that the existing reserves are sufficient to meet any reduction in incoming resources. 



## **Investment Policy** 

As of 31[st] December 2025 the Branch investment policy was: 

1. That the higher rate account balances should not fall below the reserves level. 

2. That current account balances should not fall below £35,000.00 (£30,000 for the Branch account and £5,000.00 for the clinic account) 

The Trustees recognise that this policy should be reviewed on an annual basis following the publication of the audited annual accounts for the previous year. 

## **Statement of Trustees Responsibilities** 

Under the Charities Act 1993, the Trustees are required to prepare a statement of accounts for each financial year which gives a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Medway West Branch at the end of the year and of its incoming resources and the application of such resources during the year. In preparing the statement, the Trustees are required to: 

1. Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently. 

2. Make judgements and estimates that are prudent and reasonable. 

3. State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the statement of accounts. 

4. Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue its operations. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity at that time and enable the Trustees to ensure that any statement of account prepared by them complies with the regulation under section 42(1) of the Charities Act 1993. 

The Trustees are responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and for taking reasonable steps for prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

Signed on behalf of The Medway West Branch 

Hon. Chairman                                                                       Helen Thomas 

Hon. Treasurer                                                                        Lois Warren

## Branch Managers Report 2025 

2025 has very much been a restorative year for the Branch and we have continued our march towards CIO (Charitable Incorporated Organisation) status, this will offer us better flexibility in a charity sector affected by the current cost of living crisis, meaning we can operate under certain favourable business conditions whilst still being a charity and working towards our charitable aims. 

In early 2025 the decision was taken to open a full-time veterinary clinic which includes employing our own Veterinary Surgeon and Vet Nurse, initially this will start with consults only, but we hope this will lead to the Branch being able to offer low-cost neutering/dentals and on to more specialist surgeries. 

After the Branch made the difficult decision at the end of 2024 to cease rehoming and concentrate on future operations, a robust welfare policy was established so we could still provide much needed support for people in difficult financial situations, through this welfare policy we have helped hundreds of animals including numerous inspectorate animals in need. Manor vets (who kindly offer 10% off treatment for our clients) have seen over 300 animals this year with a log number from ourselves. 

It's been a difficult year for fundraising as it has for every charity, however, we established an important partnership with our local Pets at Home (Gillingham Branch) which has given us a platform to raise more funds and awareness of what we do at the Branch. 

We still run a very successful food bank and supply various human food banks so people struggling can pick up food for their pets when they visit to pick up food parcels for themselves. In 2025 we gave out 16,356 food items, 676.87kg of biscuit and 1640 treats/supplies. 

In August we took on a new member of staff, Jake Morton joined us on a temporary basis primarily in a maintenance role, however, he has proven very proficient in managing our foodbank. 

A big thank you to Chantal Morton, our dedicated admin assistant as she enters her 24th year in the RSPCA, she continues to be the most pivotal cog in the wheel taking on some very important tasks and taking on the role of volunteer coordinator. 

Thank you to our reception team volunteers, Dave Downard and Jill Watts who help to keep our Branch running smoothly. 

Thank you to all the committee members and the brilliant Inspectorate team led by Chief Inspector Nick Wheelhouse. 

And finally, a big thank you to all our members and supporters. 

Kevin Morton 

Branch Manager 



## Charity Shop Annual Report 2025 

2025 was a challenging year for the Medway Branch but once again our shop came through it and had an amazing year. 

The introduction of card machines in July helped us raise more much needed funds to help with our welfare work and our new clinic building, with the increase in the use of cards (roughly 64% of all payments in retail are now card payments) we introduced the machines to help us capture sales that we may have missed out on, this has also made it easier for customers to payment quickly and stress free. 

Thank you to the shop staff Emma, Wendy and all the volunteers. 

If you haven’t visited the shop, please do so at 25 Wells Road, Strood, ME2 2PW.

- Inspector Kirsten Ormerod 16741 

## **Welcome to the 2025 Kent Group annual branch report** 

A few team changes in 2025 as we said goodbye to three officers: ARO Wayne Baker and ARO May Bell, who left to follow new career paths and Deputy Chief Inspector Tina Nash who has been deservedly promoted to Chief Inspector of the Surrey group. We thank them for their hard work in 2025 and wish them our best! Rosie Russon has returned to her secondment within the Wilberforce team, providing vital training packages and face to face training for officers on the changes to the Wilberforce system. We also welcomed AROs Georgia Shelton and Becca Wilkie to our group as fully trained Animal Rescue Officers 

As you all know, the RSPCA have gone through a rebranding process and our officers are now in a new style uniform with new signage on our vehicles. I’m happy to say that most of our centres and branches are now aligned and have now got their new signage too. 

The way in which jobs are tasked to our officers has changed this year to a system called Required Resource. This way of working means that an incident is owned by an individual officer and they see it through to its completion. It is hoped that this method increases ownership of an incident and that members of the public we’re working with experience more continuity to hopefully yield a more successful outcome. Kent were one of the first groups to trial this new process and it has now been successfully rolled out nationally. 



The cost of living crisis still is ever so present in the area.  The food banks are continually being used and we have brought more pet food to pet owners in the area who have fallen on difficult times.  We have been able to utilise various funds from branches and the Regional Inspectorate Welfare Fund.  This has been able to help many people over the years which has been greatly appreciated by most we have helped.  But the main thing it has helped the lives of the pets they had and improved their lives as well as the owners. 

The number of calls to our National Control Centre (NCC) is as high as ever so a system has been developed to help us prioritise cruelty and neglect cases but this has had an impact on our ability to respond to wildlife collections. If the workload in our area gets too high then we are placed in the RED zone so all collections are diverted to other local wildlife groups. We have been in the RED for a large proportion of the year. Thankfully now, we have been in the GREEN and we have seen an increase in wildlife callouts and rescues much to the delight of our team. 

## **Cases** 

Dealing with case investigations is not an easy part of the job faced by the Inspectorate and the decision to progress to a case investigation is not something that is taken lightly. Officers will always do what they can to keep an animal in situ and support the owners to make improvements, particularly with the cost of living crisis continuing, however the increase in cases has shown that, although the cost of living is affecting more and more pet owners in the community, there is still an increase in serious cases of neglect and cruelty. 

In summary: 

Adult Written Cautions issued - 10 Prosecutions - 9 Awaiting decisions - 12 

2025 unfortunately saw the end of the Inspectorate IET (initial emergency treatment) payment option for use at vets. This fund was useful to pay for the treatment of injured stray cats. The response to this from vets has been mixed but we are aware of a Vets obligation to treat animals as per the RCVS oath. Thankfully, as ever, our branches have stepped up to the mark and provided lots of support to help us to help some of the people we work with. We do have access to the Inspectorate Voucher Scheme too. 



Without the support of the Regional Board and Branch networks, we would simply not be as effective in rescuing animals in all sorts of predicaments. The field officers are under significant pressure and your continued patience and support is very much appreciated. Your work in supporting members of the public with funding, helping rehome unwanted animals, and caring for the sick and traumatised is to be commended. It can be a thankless task but I can assure you my team and I fully appreciate the hard work you and your teams put in. 

In Kent we helped rescue, collect and rehabilitate thousands more animals from situations that would have resulted in severe injury and suffering. Within the Kent group you have officers who specialise in wildlife and care, exotics, and equine rescue to name but a few. 

Our thanks goes out to our team of Animal Rescue Volunteers, who continue to provide support to the Inspectorate Group, Branch Network and Animal Centres. They will often travel huge distances to move animals to new homes or other centres. Their work is invaluable in supporting the Inspectorate group, allowing officers time to continue to work on incidents of cruelty and neglect and allowing us to respond quicker to these calls. We now have volunteers who have received extra training to allow them to deal with larger wildlife and dogs, with access to more specialised equipment. 

We wish to offer our thanks to Kent Police for their invaluable assistance in exercising their powers of entry, search, seizure and occasionally arrest of people who mistreat their animals. Our thanks also goes to Kent Fire and Rescue Service for the many occasions that they have helped with rescues of animals that have got themselves trapped or in difficulty and we have needed their equipment and manpower to resolve the situation. 

Of course we have not forgotten the RSPCA animal centres that take in our animals, care for them and eventually rehome them. Our sincere thanks to the Branch catteries and kennels that board, care for and rehome our animals, usually at very short notice and at the most inconvenient times,  and to the experts who care for our sick and injured wildlife until they have been rehabilitated and are able to be released back into the wild. 

We are also supported by Veterinary Practices from all across Kent. The support they provide helps us bring justice for animals, and support for the sick & injured. We work with other charities such as World Horse Welfare, The British Horse Society, Folly Wildlife Hospital and numerous more. We are most grateful to them all. 



Finally, on behalf of everyone in the Kent group, a big thank you to all of the Branches, members and volunteers for making us feel so welcome at your meetings and for all the difficult and invaluable work you have done throughout 2025. Without you dedicating your time and efforts we would not be able to achieve all that we do. 

Here are some examples of the many jobs we dealt with in 2025 in your branch areas... 

## **Ashford, Tenterden and District** 


Starling with a leg stuck in a gutter, unfortunately our ladders were too short to reach. Kent Fire & Rescue attended within minutes to assist. The bird was checked over and released in situ 


Female mallard duck tangled in fishing line in the middle of a lake in Ashford. SWR attended to help assist. The duck was successfully caught but unfortunately had to be PTS due to an open wing fracture caused by the fishing line 🦆 🎣 

4x male domestic rats were brought into Cinque Ports vets Kingsnorth Ashford by a MOP who found them left in a pink carrier in a communal garden. After veterinary examination one was found to have a respiratory infection which is now 



under treatment, the rats body condition was also slightly underweight. The rats were taken to RSPCA Canterbury branch where they will remain until there are ready to be rehomed 

## **Canterbury and District** 


A badger cub, with an injured leg, was spotted playing with his friend next to the busy Ash Bypass. He was collected by one of our officers then handed to the East Kent Badger Group for rehabilitation. His friend went safely back to the sett 



An albino Wallaby was rescued from Dover as it was found in some bushes by a local walker. This was an escapee who was taken for some treatment and is now being looked after. 

4 Guinea pigs were found abandoned in Herne Cemetery. 3 of the females were pregnant and managed to survive in the heat. No owner came forward so they have been successfully rehomed. 





4 kittens left in an Aldi insulated bag in the doorway of St Dunstan's Church, London Road, Canterbury. All of the kittens survived their ordeal but no owner came forward although we have a pretty good idea of where they were from due to some intel from the local community. There was not enough evidence to pursue this though. 

## **Isle of Thanet** 



This tiny gull chick had fallen from its “nest” on the top of a high rise block of flats in Ramsgate onto a balcony the floor below which was lucky really. The chick was scooped up and the officer was able to locate the keys to access the roof area where the chick was successfully reunited with siblings and parents who were happily swooping in protection 





A joint work job between the Isle of Thanet branch and the inspectorate to rescue over 150 small furries (rabbits, guinea pigs and 2 swamp cavies) from a dilapidated outdoor enclosure. It took 2 days to remove all of the animals and most of the females were pregnant so multiple branches got more than they bargained for. Big thanks to the branch for their help 


## **Medway West** 

A fox cub found with an injured front paw in Gillingham. He was taken to the Fox Project for some much deserved rest and rehabilitation 


Herring Gull trapped in a chimney in Medway was rescued by our officers and was taken to Mallydams for a thorough health check before being released. 



**Kent North West** 


A young fox cub got caught in football netting at a pub garden in Welling. He was unharmed, released in situ and went straight back down the den to tell his family about the ordeal. The pub landlord was educated about netting and they agreed they will take it down to prevent future accidents 🦊 


A cat called Orio was stuck between 2 houses just near Dartford. The gap was only 4 inches and he was about 10 feet inwards. Fire and rescue came to help and they had to drill through the garage wall! Orio was truly stuck (not the thinnest of cats). After about 45 mins of gentle wriggling I managed to pull him out unscathed to the delight of the owner who was present. She took her straight to the vets to get a check over. Oreo was there for approx 2 days. Well done to the fire team!! 

## **Folkestone and District** 


This little cub had been trying to play with some local horses then went to the next field for a rest. After speaking with our wildlife experts at Mallydams and getting some good information from the caller, it was decided that he was too far away from the sett and should be brought in for rehabilitation. This feisty cub got quite the name for himself at Mallydams where he spent the next few months with other cubs 





Northern Gannet found by a member of the public with netting around its beak. The Gannet was collected and was taken to RSPCA Mallydams to be monitored in case it had ingested the netting. Thankfully the Gannet recovered and was released back to the wild. 

## **Kent West, Sevenoaks and Tonbridge** 



A swan got into a pickle when he crash landed on a Tonbridge rail line. When our officer attended he had become trapped behind a fence in the middle of the tracks, trains were halted and lines temporarily switched off while he was caught. Thankfully he was not injured and was released at a nearby lake on the other side of the station. 


Female cat and 5 kittens were found on the side of the road on a country lane outside Tunbridge Wells this afternoon and handed in to a vet. All in very poor condition, mum cat very underweight not chipped, with a ruptured left eye, all kittens all have cat flu all dehydrated and have fleas and underweight. They all received the care they needed and were successfully rehomed.
