Friend membership

Individual Friend Membership

Becoming a Friend of the RSPCA member keeps you closer to the day-to-day work of the RSPCA and its inspectors.

From as little as just £3 a month by Direct Debit you can become a Friend of the RSPCA and receive benefits, including:

  • animal life magazine
  • the right to vote at our AGM
  • a membership badge
  • Friends newsletter.

If you choose, your membership details can also be passed to your local RSPCA branch (which is a separately registered charity) so that they can consider you for branch membership and contact you with updates about their activities and how you may be able to help them. Your application / membership of the branch is governed by the branch rules.

Becoming Friends of the RSPCA members will keep you and your partner closer to the day-to-day work of the RSPCA and its inspectors from as little as £4 a month.

Joint Friend Membership is open to any two people who are both aged 18 or over and who live together as partners at the same address. Joint members will normally receive only one copy of animal life and the Annual Review sent to their joint address.
