Registered Charity Number 232249 Annual Report Year ending 31[st] December 2024

1

A word from our Chair of Trustees………..

I am pleased and proud to introduce our Trustees’ annual report and accounts for 2024.

With the continuing national financial crisis and the ever increasing cost of private vet care, more and more people are contacting our low cost welfare vet clinic desperate for help to care for their pets.

Despite these challenging times the Branch has continued its commitment to provide its vital work to improve the welfare of animals. Once again, I extend my thanks to our trustees, volunteers and supporters who selflessly give up their time, money and expertise to help those animals most in need of our care and support and to make a real difference to the lives of so many animals in our local area. Also, thanks to our wonderful staff who work tirelessly to ensure we provide the best possible support to pets and their owners in our branch area.

Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities

The trustees of the Charity are responsible for preparation of the annual Financial Statement and Trustee Report which give a true and fair view of the Charity’s financial activities during the year and its financial position at the end of the year, in accordance with the charity’s governing document, ‘’Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice’’ (FRS 102)(effective 1 January 2019) and the Charities Act 2011. Trustees should follow best practice and are required to:

Trustees are also responsible for maintaining accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the Charity at any time and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the applicable law, regulations and trust deed.

The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Risk Management

Trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed, and to ensure that appropriate controls are in place. Trustees actively review the major risks, as identified on the Branch Risk Register, on a regular basis during committee meetings which cover both operational and financial reviews. Trustees also examine other business risks which the branch may face and confirm that they have established systems to mitigate significant risks.

Structure, Governance and Management

RSPCA Wigan, Leigh & District Branch is an unincorporated charitable association and a separately registered branch of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (the Society). The Branch carries out its direct animal welfare work in the areas of Wigan, Leigh and parts of Skelmersdale.

The Branch is run by a committee of trustees (volunteers), who have individual and collective responsibility for the management of the Branch and its funds. The Branch Committee holds monthly meetings at which decisions are made.

The Committee must consist of not less than five but not more than 14 trustees. The Branch Trustees are elected by the branch membership at the Annual General Meeting (AGM), or up to three can be co-opted mid year. The Branch Officers are elected annually by Committee at the post AGM meeting.

The Branch actively seeks new trustees to diversify the group and complement existing experience and skills. Potential new trustees are made familiar with the policies and activities of the branch and attend meetings as an observer before being appointed. All trustees undertake initial and ongoing training.

The day to day running of the Branch is delegated to the Branch Manager, carrying out its direct animal welfare work in the branch area. The Branch is governed by the Branch Rules of the National Society of the RSPCA.

Charity Objectives and Public Benefit Statement

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

The trustees have reviewed the outcomes and achievements for the year to ensure that they remain focused on our charitable aims and to continue to deliver benefits to the public. We have complied with the duty under the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Commission.

Under the Charities Act 2011, the advancement of animal welfare is recognised as a distinct statutory charitable purpose. This legislation and the Animal Welfare Act 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. This report highlights the Branch’s main activities and demonstrates the benefit provided to the public. 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.

The Trustees have considered the Charity Commission guidance regarding public benefit and are satisfied that the Charity has met the requirements as described within this report.

Financial Position and Reserves Policy

The total income received in the year was £231,734 (£334,393 in 2023). Expenditure in the year was £259,655 (£216,239 in 2023).

There was a loss of -£27,921 for the year (a profit of £118,154 in 2023).

The Branch received £15,478 in legacy income during the year (£94,752 in 2023), for which we are extremely grateful to our wonderful supporters and animal lovers who remember us in their wills.

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. Reserves in this context mean funds that are freely available for the Branch’s general purposes after all commitments have been met. Tangible fixed assets (buildings, vehicles, furniture and equipment) are not included within reserves.

5

In addition to such unrestricted reserves, the Branch may also hold additional restricted reserves i.e. funds donated for a specific purpose and which cannot be used for anything other than that purpose.

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

Investment Policy

Trustees agree that the branch requires quick and easy access to its funds.

As of the 31st December 2022 the branch investment policy is as below: The Branch continues to invest all available funds in a range of deposit and Money Market bank accounts concurrent with maintaining sufficient liquidity to meet the ongoing day to day needs of the branch.

As of December 2023 the trustees agreed to invest surplus funds of £125,00 which were over and above the ongoing day to day needs of the branch, in a NatWest 1 Year Fixed Term Deposit at a rate of 4.39% interest, payable in December 2024.

Review of Activity and Achievements

The main aims of the Branch remain the same:

● When circumstances enable more expansive rehoming, to accept, as a priority, animals from the RSPCA inspectorate and to find them new homes.

Welfare Vet Services

The Branch provides low cost welfare vet treatments for the pets of local people on benefits who would not otherwise be able to afford vet treatment for their pets. Wigan is a hotspot for animal cruelty with very high rates of animal welfare complaints, often due to poor understanding of animal welfare needs as well as the pressures of low income. Branch clinic interventions help to give clients a better understanding of how to care for their pets and provide the support for them to do this.

There is no other animal charity offering welfare vet treatment within our borough, and with the cessation of public work at the RSPCA Greater Manchester Animal Hospital in 2022, our low cost vet clinic remains the only

6

lifeline for many local people and their pets. With the ongoing national financial crisis, more and more people are contacting us, desperate for help to care for their animals.

The Branch clinic provides consultation and treatment, neutering, vaccinations, microchipping, dentals, blood investigations and minor surgical procedures.

2024 Welfare vet clinic activity headlines

The Branch also supports the RSPCA inspectorate by preventing escalation of animal welfare issues, accepting direct client referrals from the inspectorate, including from outside of our area, and providing follow up and notification of non-compliance with inspectorate advice and direction, helping to prevent further suffering of sick and/or maltreated animals. The number of inspector referrals to our clinic continues to rise year on year.

We continue to work closely with Cats Protection and in 2024 neutered 173 cats under their neutering voucher programme (165 in 2023), with particular focus on multi cat households.

We would like to reiterate our heartfelt thanks to the Trustees of the IVO Trust who donated a £50,000 grant to our Branch in 2023 to support improvement of our operating facilities and make the structural changes required to expand our post-operative recovery area, which will enable us to increase our surgical provision. Over 2024 we worked with our architect Bob Allen to develop the plans and work is scheduled to start in 2025. We would like to extend a huge thank you to Bob for volunteering to offer his services to the branch for free.

Rehoming

Rehoming was suspended in 2020 as our private boarding provider was unable to accept animals during the pandemic; unfortunately, they have been unable to recommence due to consequent operational issues. We are looking to secure suitable facilities to enable recommencement of rehoming services and establishment of a wider fostering programme.

We placed 2 kittens that had been dumped in very poor condition with another local charity. Sadly one did not survive but the other was nursed back to health and found a forever home.

7

We worked with local charity Alley Cats to rehome 16 kittens from a client of our clinic whose cat numbers had gotten out of control - we neutered his 4 remaining cats to prevent the problem recurring.

We rehomed a tortoise ‘Hermoine’ after her previous owner of 25 years sadly passed away.

Advice and Help

The Branch continues to provide free advice to members of the public via its advice line which is normally open between 9.00 am and 4.00 pm Monday to Thursday /10.00am to 2.00pm Fridays. On average the staff answer approximately 45 calls per day from the public. Advice is also provided via our web-site and Facebook page. The public also benefits from knowing that we can provide support to assist animals in need.

Pet Food Bank

We support the RSPCA Inspectorate Pet Food Bank Project as a storage and distribution point for pet food destined for food banks across Greater Manchester and neighbouring areas. The Branch also directly supports ‘The Brick’ food bank with regular pet food donations, to support local pet owners in crisis, who are struggling to afford to feed their pets.

Fundraising and Awareness Raising

Trustees would like to acknowledge and thank the following groups and organisations for their support of the Branch, and for staff and volunteers who participated in these events.

Also special thanks to:

● The wonderful staff of Pets at Home who also support us through their ‘Lifeline’ voucher scheme and have a donation bin for our branch at their Robin Park shop.

In addition, the Branch received a number of donations from our wonderful local supporters, which together with legacy income helped the branch to continue our important local animal welfare work.

Thank you to Orinsis Ltd who made us a generous donation of £1000.

The Branch has a strong relationship with Stoneacre Peugeot, which is located next door to the PAWS Centre. They continue to rent car parking space from us, which is an important source of revenue to the Branch.

8

Education and Animal Welfare

We work within the local community to deliver innovative education sessions to children and young people, helping to develop compassion, an understanding of the needs of different animals, how the Branch and wider RSPCA works to prevent animal cruelty and how everyone can play a part in making animals lives better. In 2024 we delivered sessions to 40-50 children at Haydock Primary School.

PAWs Pals

PAWS Pals encourages animal lovers to donate a regular monthly amount to our Branch and is an important initiative in raising regular income but also for raising awareness of the branch and our animal welfare services within the wider community.

Charity Shop

The charity shop at 32 Market Street, remains an important source of regular income for the branch. Trustees are very grateful to the dedicated charity shop staff and volunteers who have ‘gone the extra mile’ to ensure the shop has continued to operate effectively despite the huge ongoing disruption caused by Wigan Council's town centre redevelopment project, which has significantly impacted on access for all local retailers since 2022.

Trustees would also like to express sincere thanks to the shop landlord who very generously continued the 15% discretionary rent reduction during 2024, to support us during this challenging time.

In 2024 the charity shop had a 29% decrease in profits from 2023, but whilst the plans for the redevelopment of Wigan town centre has inevitably caused significant disruption, it is hoped that in the longer term the charity shop will be in a prime location to benefit from this initiative.

Plans for the future

To continue to further the charity's aims and objectives, delivering and developing our welfare vet service to ensure we continue to make a real difference to the welfare of animals in our local area.

Lastly

Trustees thank the RSPCA Inspectorate, RSPCA Bolton and Animal Trust, with whom we have continued to work closely to support our clients.

9

The branch depends on the help and dedication of around 26 volunteers who give their time freely to help us help local animals. The branch could not function without them and we are very grateful for all their help and support.
