This has been a year Df change. but l am able lo say on a positive note that 2022 will be rn0￿ secure with new trustees being recruited who will bè undertaking educational talks, Gal trapping of stray cals elc. The charity's assets have increased over the last few years and al the 31st December 2021 we had cash assets of £49,986 which gives us financi81 security lor the years ahead.

MONTGOMERYSHIRE AND RADNOR BRANCH TREASURERS REPORT It gives me pleasure to presènt a summary ol the br8n¢h's financial circtjmslances for the financial year 1st January lo 31 st December 2021. Montgomeryshire and Radnoi Branch received a paymènt of £24,134 from the RSPCA Door lo Door Collection fund. This monpy has cnabled us lo spend £1.789 on the neutering ol cats and dogs IN our branch area. In addit50n. we have run a scheme for the Neutering of Farm and stray cats at a tol81 cost to the branch of £896 and the Farm Dog Neutering scheme to the cost of £3,850. In addilion. we spent 8 furthér £10,949 on animal welfare. treating a total 01108 dogs. 60 cals During the financial year we received £943.55 in donations from members of the public and organisations. To summarise during the financial year. we received an income of £35,405, which included a £10,000 grant from the RSPCA Regional Group lor farm dog neutering. By way of expenditure. we spent a total of £18,244 during the year. At Ihe 31 st December 2021 the assels of the charity amounted to Currenl account balance £44, 160, Money Manager Account balaiice £5,827 making a total of £49,986. Re5erve5 The TTUSlee5 have a pdicy of ensuring Ihat sufficient reservcs are maintained to fund the operations of the Chaflty lor al least six months, should ils usual sources of Income cease. Reserv8 18vels in rec8nt years have been sufficient to ensure Ihal the oiganisation could continue to operate lor al least two years. without further injections of funds. Al 31 December 2021, reserves amounted to £49,98612020.' £32.8251 ol which £nil 12020." £Trill has been designated for neutéring dogs and cats, lèaving fre& rÈséNes of £49.986. To Maintain these reserves al currenl levels. the charity Is dependent on receiving funds, in the main by donations frorn the public and in the form of grants from RSPCA Wales and froTn RSPCA National. The Trustees aim to use some of the resèrva funds to support member% ol the public who 3re In receipt of state benefits, lo enablè their pets, predominately cats and dogs, to receive the necessary veterinary Irealmcnl and where appropriate to bc neutered. In addition, the branch h8$ 8n objective lo ensure that all cats which Comè into the caiè of the branch. receive all necessary veterinary treattnent, and be neutered and micro chipped belore being offered for rehoming. Principal rlsks The two main risks lo the Gharily'5 ability lo continue operations are.. 1. The financial risk, resulting frorn a lack of funding, both funding from members of thè public and in the form of grants from the appropriate bodies", and 2. The organisalional risk resulting from 8 lack c>1 people prepared to operate the branch As noted in the reserves policy slalement above, the branch has more than sufficient reserves to continue Its present levels of operationg. The Trustees monitor the level of expenditure. however. to ensure that tho reseNes are maintained at acceptable levels. Tho branch is currently well served by ils supporters. Any reduction in support would be immediately obvious lo the trustees and aGlion could then be taken lo address the issue. Structure and Governance The R S P C.A.
