Volunteers
In order to continue to work effectively for animal welfare in our area the branch needs volunteers to help run it and to help raise funds. Every year we spend more money than we raise and without our fast reducing reserves the branch would quickly run out of cash. If you can help please call Daphne Harris on 01622 891222 Please leave a message if there is no answer and we will call you back.
Campaign Officer To liaise with the RSPCA HQ on current and future campaigns and to co-ordinate/communicate the necessary requirements to the Branch membership and general public via the local media. We desperately need to fill this position which should provide an enjoyable challenge to a campaigning type with a few hours each week to spare.
Home Visitors
Home Visiting Volunteers are responsible to the Home Check Co-ordinator. They visit the prospective animal adopters in their own homes to ensure suitability. Qualities needed are a calm confident manner, to be able to get along with people and to have some knowledge of caring for animals. We are always looking for volunteers to join our team, please contact Norma on 01622 765919
Fosterers
Usually required for puppies or kittens, the branch urgently needs dedicated animal carers who would be prepared to foster very young animals prior to adoption. This will not involve any personal expense but will most probably involve sleepless nights.
