Donate In Memory of a special person

If you’ve lost someone who had a lifelong love of animals, you can let the love story live on with a donation In Memory to the RSPCA. Your gift will help rescue animals who have never known such love, giving them the treatment and care they deserve.

Remember a loved one with the RSPCA

By donating In Memory to the RSPCA, you’ll be funding the vital work of the only charity that rescues animals from the worst cases of abuse and neglect. Every day, we bring suffering animals to safety. We give them all the life-saving treatment and expert care they need to recover. And we show them the love they have never known, so they can go on to lead happy, healthy lives.

Freya is back on her paws

Freya was able to recover in the safety of a cosy kennel after she was thrown from a truck and needed emergency surgery. After she was cared for by our veterinary team, she began her steady path to recovery.

Kora has a new life

Nervous Kora needed a lot of stroking and hand-feeding to create a positive association she’d never had before with people. With dedicated care and lots of patience, our expert team was able to boost her confidence – and she was soon giving them all head rubs.

Molly now jumps for joy

Extremely underweight, Molly Moo came to us in the nick of time. She received round-the-clock care – including a closely monitored diet to help her recover from being so poorly. With a dedicated team giving her daily care, this big friendly giant sprung back to life.

Celebrating Kirsty's love for animals

My sister, Kirsty, loved animals. Up until the time she went into hospice care, she took great comfort in the family cats and her two rescue dogs, Marnie and Tasha. Sadly, we lost our 18-year-old Hollie cat recently. We like to think she’s curled again on Kirsty’s lap.
