OBJECTIVES AND AcfiviTIES Objectives and aims R.A.l.N adopts the following objettives in rtherance of its aims.. The relief of suffering animals which are in need of care and attention by reason of homelessness, maltreatment, poor Circumstances, ill-usage or other similar causes and for the prevention of cruelty to animals. To provide all necessary veterinary treatment including vaccinations and neutering to the above mentioned animals. To assist with veterinary charges andlor keep of animals in proven cases of need. R.A.l.N's activities are petItiVe in nature and there has been no change year-on-year in these pursuits. A continuous precession of animals arrive at the charity, sometimes through d1ct contatt with the public or from other welfare organisatlons, veterinary prartices, soclal Services etc. The majority Quire vaccination and neutering. All are checked and micro-chipped by RAIN if necessary. Any further medical treatment is catered for at that time. Where seriou5 illness or injury is reported by the veterinary inspection a few are put to sleep as a last resort, but only if this is felt to be in the best interests of the animal. After their veterinary check etc, the animals are transported to a well-established commercial boarding cattery until prospective new owners can be found. Advertising in the local vets, on the internet with our website and facebook also by word of mouth is used as a route for attrarting new owners. We ask for a flxed donatlon from anyone who Is homlng one of our anlmals. Hopefully thls ensures that they have thought carefully about their future responsibilities. Adopters are given a 12 month free subscription to the charity and encouraged to become members in the longer term. They often then contribute to our house magazine which is usually full of successful stories of happy new associations between animal and owner. Volunteers In a 'normal' year volunteers contribute throughout the organisation. Some help with transport,. some foster animals. some visit prospertive homes and establish suitability for homing. Further fund raising is Stlll curtalled due to Covid restrlctions. A magazlne 'RAIN NEWS, is published twice a year to keep In touch with our members and to provide publicity. The magazine is prepared in-house, but goes to a commercial printer due to the high print run required (1000 copies). Distribution is conducted by the membership secretary. A website IwvYw.rain.org.uk) is maintained regulady and we now have a 'facebook' page. These are most useful routes in referring prospective adopters to information concerning our animals. Further regular fund-raising takes place through the '200 Club. run by a volunteer. Here a steady income accrues through the generosity of ordinary members. ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE During the current year 62 cats and kittens have been rehomed by the organisation. Over and above the re-homing the charity has assisted in the neutering of 60 cats, 16 dogs and 2 rabbits from the wider community, help with veterinary bills has been given for a further 53 animals. A few animals require long term veterinary care which the charity funds. Some animals continue to receive this financial 5UPPOrt once rehomed when circumstance dittate. Pet insurance is strongly recommended to adopters. The majority of our cats find good loving homes v¥ithout long term boarding being necessary. The assistance we offer for neutering animals in the community is also frequently called upon and we have responded accordingly. We are also, in view of circumstances some people are finding themselves in, assisting with veterinary expenses when necessary. This is continuing to increase. Page I
RESCUED ANIMALS IN NEEDLGREEN ST GREENJ Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 28 February 2022 FINANCIAL REVIEW Funds are held in several accounts but mainly in CAF Gold and Platinum accounts. Long term fvture expendlture Is a funrtlon of fund-raI5ing attivltles yet to be determlned. No RAIN fund is materlally In deficit. It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six month expenditure. The committee considers that reserves at this level will ensure that in the event of a significant drop in fundingi they will be able to continue the charity's Curnt attivities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year. STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document The charity is controlled by its goveming document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charlty. Organisational structure Rescued Animals In Need,, first registered as a eharity in 1986, is directed by an executive committee comprising members of long standing. New committee members are recruited as necessary fmm volunteers who are known to be dedicated to the objectives of the charity and are known to the trustees. Officers and full committee members a normally elected at an AGM and appointed as trustees under the terms of the written eonstitution. The committee is supported by co-opted members without executive status. In the last twelve months the commlttee of 2020 have contlnued because no AGM has been possible due to Covid restrictions. The organisation is headed by a chairman, supported by two secretaries (an administrative secretary and a membership secretary), a treasurer, an animal welfare team and a small fund raising and promotion team. All are honorary positions. Cheques need two approved signatUS for clearance. A membership database is maintained by the membership secretaryi who arranges for the distribution of news and magazines to our membership. An administrative secretary minutes detsils of committee meetings and looks after communications with outside bodies and 'fronts' the organisation when correspondence Is required. RAIN also works amicably with a group of similar charities. It is with regret that RAIN can no longer take and re-home dogs. These a now referred to Battersea at Brands Hatch. This is due to the lack of in-house expertise and facilities to socialise and rehabilitate dogs. We continue to support our 'foster dogs, and assist with neutering and veterinary care in the wider community if required.
