Longview Animal Centre is the animal rescue and rehoming centre operated by the RSPCA Blackpool & North Lancashire Branch in Stalmine, Lancashire. The branch has a long tradition of helping animals in need, having been established in 1958 to provide care, rescue and rehoming services for neglected, abandoned and abused animals across North Lancashire.

For more than five decades, the branch operated from its former animal centre on Division Lane in Blackpool. While the site enabled thousands of animals to be rescued and rehomed, the ageing buildings became increasingly difficult to maintain and no longer met the high standards of animal welfare expected in modern rescue facilities. As demand for the branch's services continued to grow, plans were developed to create a new, purpose-built centre that could provide better accommodation and improved veterinary facilities.

Construction of the new Longview Animal Centre began in the early 2010s on a rural site at Old Toms Lane, Stalmine. The project was completed in phases, allowing the branch to continue caring for animals throughout the transition. The first stage included a modern cattery and facilities for rabbits and other small animals, followed by new dog kennels, treatment areas and support buildings. The centre officially opened in September 2014, marking a significant milestone in the branch's history after more than 50 years at its previous location.

Today, Longview Animal Centre cares for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds and other small animals rescued from cruelty, neglect and abandonment. At its busiest, it can house more than 100 animals while they receive veterinary treatment, rehabilitation and are prepared for adoption into new homes. The centre also supports the RSPCA Inspectorate by providing temporary accommodation for animals rescued from cruelty and neglect investigations.

As an independent RSPCA branch, the Blackpool & North Lancashire Branch is responsible for raising its own funds to operate Longview Animal Centre. The charity relies on donations, fundraising events, legacies, charity shops and the dedication of staff and volunteers to continue its work.
