What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
Tahira Animal Welfare Foundation is set up to prevent and relieve the suffering of homeless, injured and abused animals in Pakistan, and to reduce the number of animals living and dying on the streets. We do this by operating a rescue helpline and response service in Faisalabad, providing veterinary assessment, emergency treatment, surgery, medicines and rehabilitation. Animals that cannot safely return to the streets are given long-term care and sanctuary. To tackle the root cause of suffering - overpopulation - we run Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return (TNVR) and anti-rabies vaccination campaigns, alongside humane community outreach and education to promote responsible care and compassion for animals, including working equines.

From 09 March 2026, OSCR is required by law to publish the names of a charity’s trustees as part of its Scottish Charity Register entry. We are also required to publish each charity’s annual report and accounts as received from this date, which may include the names of certain individuals. The only exceptions to publication are where a charity or one of its charity trustees applies for this information to be excluded, and OSCR is satisfied that publishing it would jeopardise the safety or security of a person or premises.

If the charity trustee information on a Register entry appears blank, this may mean that an exemption applies or that the charity has not yet provided the required details to OSCR. Supplying this information will become mandatory as part of future annual submissions.
Copyright

From 30 June 2025, OSCR began collecting charity trustee information through OSCR Online. Providing this information is a legal requirement for all charities. The names of trustees will be published on the Scottish Charity Register from early 2026 to promote transparency and strengthen public trust in the sector.

Charity accounts and constitution – what information do we publish?

The Scottish Charity Register contains key information about a charity’s operations and finances. This includes:

These changes are designed to improve transparency across the charity sector in Scotland.
