RSPCA West Dorset Branch is a separate charity affiliated to the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA).

We cover the towns of Dorchester, Bridport, Weymouth, Portland, Lyme Regis, Charmouth, Sherborne and Axminster (Devon) and the surrounding villages.

Our priorities are the welfare and rehoming of local animals. We raise our funds within the Branch boundaries and all money raised is spent within the area. 

We are responsible for Taylor’s Rehoming Centre at Kingston Maurward, Dorchester and operate RSPCA Charity Shops in Bridport, Weymouth and Sherborne.

At RSPCA West Dorset Branch we are proud of our No Euthanasia Policy for healthy, rehomeable animals. If you have any queries about our euthanasia policy then please Contact us.
