Lucy: Animal Rescue
Volunteer (ARV)
Lucy helps suffering
animals get the help they
need quickly.
"I collect, transport and release animals, freeing
inspectors' time to attend to more complex cases. Seeing
animals going back to their rightful lives once they're well
is so rewarding." Paula: Foster carer
Paula takes dogs in our
care - who are often
traumatised - into her home
so they can adjust to normal
family life.
"It can take a lot of time and patience to build their
confidence and nurture them until they're ready for their
forever homes. But if I can save a dog, I will.
"
Paul: Fundraiser
Paul ran to raise money
for the RSPCA in the
Great North Run, after the
sad death of his rescue
dog Pepper.
"I am passionate about animal welfare. The RSPCA
steps in when animals are desperate, so both it and Pepper
were my inspiration. I ran for them and for every animal
in need.
"
Phil: RSPCA
Assured farmer
Phil's egg-laying hens live
fulfilled, cage-free lives on
his farm, because he follows
nearly 700 RSPCA standards
to protect their welfare.
"I'm proud to display the RSPCA Assured label, which
shows customers my hens can express natural behaviours
such as nesting, foraging and perching."
Julie: Branch
volunteer
Julie helps keep animals safe
in her community through
talks, pet welfare events,
litter picks and food banks.
"I love helping owners and pets stay together where
suitable and possible - or finding new homes for animals
who need them - as well as seeing wildlife released back into
the wild after treatment and rehabilitation.
"Paul: Wildlife Friend
Wildlife can thrive, thanks
to Paul's efforts to nurture
and protect animals in his
local area.
"As an RSPCA Wildlife Friend, I do as much as I can,
such as cleaning bird feeders, doing litter picks and checking
drains for hedgehogs.
