The Wild at Heart Foundation funds and supports animal welfare projects all over the world. In particular, we aim to reduce the world's 600 million stray dog population. We do this by organising and sponsoring neutering programmes, welfare campaigns and education initiatives.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received Government grants

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 4 trustees
  • The Board is completely female

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
