The places the charity told the Commission it works in.

In the year ending 28 February 2025, it had income of £750,503 and spent £841,028.

Figures as the charity reported them to the Charity Commission. Staff and volunteer numbers are only asked of charities with income over £10,000. A year with no row was not reported.

Separate measures from the charity's own returns and accounts, each with its year. Read them together: no single measure says how well a charity is run.

Income over time

Up 24%, from £603,684 in the year to 28 February 2021 to £750,503 in the year to 28 February 2025.

Spending against income

It spent 112% of its income in the year to 28 February 2025. It spent more than its income in 2 of the 5 years shown.

From the annual returns the charity filed with the Charity Commission. The largest funder comes from its accounts, read by AI.

Government grants in the year ending 28 February 2025: Not reported. Government contracts: Not reported.

From the charity's annual return to the Charity Commission, which asks every charity with income over £10,000 how much came from government grants and contracts. It does not say which part of government. These totals are separate from the named funders read from its accounts and the grants published on 360Giving, and are not added to them.

No grants to this charity appear in 360Giving data.

Only funders that publish their grants to 360Giving are included, and many do not. These are amounts funders awarded, which can differ from what the charity received in a given year, so they are shown apart from the accounts figures above.

  …sorts of things that weren't there when the Valley was an unregulated track, ostensibly. So, I think that what you've got, especially with Greyhound Rescue Wales, Hope Rescue, all those types of charities that are citing much of the evidence that's been before the Senedd, is that it's outdated and o…

  Chair, perhaps we can do that. I just want to finish here.
