Happy National Volunteer Week to all our fantastic volunteers!

Across the branch, we are extremely lucky to be supported by a fantastic team of talented volunteers. Each one gives 100% for the benefit of our animals and we value highly the part they play in our team.

Without you, we wouldn’t be able to achieve what we do!

So whether you clean pens, walk dogs, groom rabbits, help in our shops and events, play with cats, foster, knit, donate, home visit, drive or look after our grounds you are all wonderful!

We look forward to celebrating with you and enjoying another successful year.
