SPCA has an important role to play in the local community, and our operation would not be possible without your support.

Together, we help the animals that so desperately need it, and bring justice to those who have failed these innocent animals.

Our inspectors work to uphold the laws relating to the treatment of animals and bring prosecutions where necessary. At our animal centres we give sanctuary to animals in distress and re-home suitable animals whenever possible.
