Over¥lew of 2021 A video review of the fdlowing can found on this link.'- https:Ilrspca-raddiffe.org.uk12021-reviewl We started the year in trepidation. not really knowing what to expect following 2020, a concem for our ability to raise enough funds and 8 concem for the many animals affectod by a host of pandemic factors. It soon became dear however what 2021 would bring and vthat we would be lacklillg.. Multiple animal cases where owners couldn't cope wlth the number of anim818 they had. Some driven by greed. others simply blinded to the needs of individual animals. The results the same. A sad story of increasing neglect and poor Welfa for the many animals that had been used as breeding machines, or simply forgottan. Malted Coats, malnoLtrished. untreated injuries, frightened and under socialised. Over 70 dogs taken in from just 3 households alone. Imported puppies suff&ring diseastr and fighting for survival before they even had a chance lo become family pets. In many cases. their batde was lost as they were just too weak and sick to go on, the only compassion they would know would be from those who desperately tried to save their lives. More stolen pets than ever before meant a closer relationship with other agenctes as we joined forces to educate the public and reunlte ownefs with their pets. dedy dogs losing their elderly and vulnerable owners to CovSd. Left in desperate negd of rghomSng and that special someone prepared lo offer them the warmth and comfort of a nèw home. A big ask en the demand continues lo be for puppies. Animals sold from one home lo another as e8d7 of their brief owners forgot that lime and training is needed for a dog lo settle. Each of them wanting lo recoup their financial loss. When they finally reach our care, it means longer rehabilitatic timas for behavioural issues that could hav8 been managed so much soonar. The same is true for those owners who were not prepared for the costs of vetertnary treatment. giving them up to rescues when their condition became so obvious they could not be sold. Picking up the cosls of surgery and ongoing veterinary care, as well as longer rehgbililation periods, means greater pressure on all our reSoUrS and a greater need for funding. Finding new and experienced homes for animals w¢th complex behavioural needs and animals requiring lifelong velerin8ry treatment, is an ongoing challenge. However. 2021 was not all bad. As always. we take pride and joy in the animals we have a¢ed in new homes. their lives lumed afound forever because of the help they received through Radcliffe Animal Centre and because our adopters wailed so patienuy lo offer them a home. After 18 months of care and much media attention. Bella too found her forever home, Llelighting the nation after her heroic 8fforts to surviv8. Sh8 continuad to teach us lo be hopeful and to believe in what working together can achieve. She highlighted a need for tougher sentencing for anim81 welfaro offen¢es and we thank all of you who supported the call for better legislation. Bella's life rsow is one of much comfort, suryounded onty by the kindness and respect that every animal deserves. During 2021, 156 dogs, 257 cats. 42 rabbits and 7 mlscellaneous animals were re-homod. Page 2

Despite the challenges and loss Covid brought lo our own family lives, the noed lo gel animals lo safety remained a joint priority. We hope the future is bright for all of us and that we have tum8d a com8r. Thè aftem)ath of a pandemic will undoubtedly leave ils mark on animal welfare for many years to come.

In addition lo this, The Trust continues lo contract a professional IT support company to ensure continuity of service. With the rapid advan of techndogy, we will maintain our efforts lo tske advantage of this advancement and reduce costs while provtding a more effective service. dl Failure to Effectively Manago ProJg¢ts No further large scale proje¢ts are currendy planned, although over the next few years the refurbishmerrt of the kennels musl be considered. •} Impart of Covid The rehoming measures wher& a rgmole system of matching animals to owners were PLrt in place in 2020. This has proved to have longer18sting advantages lo the running of the Centre. The method in whith we rehome animals continues lo be appraised. Numbers of animals have fallen due lo the restrictions put in plao. We are continuing to see animals needing 10 stay longer as those animals brought into us by Inspe¢tors are often those needing veterinary treatment and èxtensive reh8bililalion. The average cost per animal has therefore continues lo rise in lemis of boarding costs and provislon of treatment. The loss of footfall has impacied in our ability to collect donations from people visiting our centre and seeing first hand our work. We will continue to refine Ouf offering lo enwurage ordine donating. Adoption numbers are down because of restricted intake and remote adoption processes although those animals coming into us are being SLsccessfully rehomed. With this in mind adoption income decreased. As our supporters have had to move online for their normal everyday lile, there is optimism that our adoption model is beGoming accepted by our a(k)pters. We have reduced staff numbers through natural wastsge in relation lo reduced activity so have been able lo reduce staff costs without the need for redundancies. Very few staff could be furloijghed due to the need lo provide animal care and keep the centre functioning. Staff werg fvrloughed where possible, bul in stages, lo negate the impact on the service we provide. As the situation becomes more nom7al, staffing may have to increase. As the Centre trains its own apprgntices. it is not believed that SOLITcing 8ppropriate personnel wll be a protAem. The animal centre has continued lo provide support lo the national soci8ty, the veterinary industry and the general public by providing a neutertrng service lo assist with a potential COV kitten crisis caused by reduced privale veterinary service. For some of the general public access to veterinary sery1$ still poses 8 protAem. Page 6
