SOCIETY FOR ABANDONED ANIMALS 

The SAA takes in unwanted and abandoned animals (currently cats and rabbits). We provide care and veterinary treatment for them until we find them new homes.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
