RSPCA Clwyd and Colwyn branch

RSPCA Clwyd and Colwyn branch A separately registered charity branch that operates under the umbrella (RSPCA) in England and Wales. We are self-funded and support local animal welfare work.

Our branch is independently run by minimul staff, volunteers and trustees. RCN: 223677 The history of the RSPCA

We were founded in a London coffee shop in 1824. The men present knew they were creating the world’s first animal welfare charity, but they couldn’t have imagined the size and shape that the charity would become today. Back then we were the SPCA - Society for the Prevention of Cruelty t

o Animals. Royal patronage followed in 1837 and Queen Victoria gave permission to add the royal R in 1840, making us the RSPCA as we’re known worldwide today. Moving with the times

When we were founded, our focus was working animals, such as ‘pit ponies’, who were worked down the coal mines. But we've changed with the times. During the First and Second World Wars we worked to help the millions of animals enlisted to serve alongside British, Commonwealth and Allied forces. And, our work with pets that we’re best known for today, only developed with the trend to keep them. The law

We've always been influential in forming and improving animal welfare law. In 1822, two years before we were founded, ‘Martin’s Act’ was passed. It was the very first animal welfare law and it forbade ‘the cruel and improper treatment of cattle’. Thirteen years on, in 1835, and ‘Pease’s Act’ consolidated this law. The prohibition of cruelty was extended to dogs and other domestic animals, bear-baiting and cock-fighting was forbidden, and it insisted on better standards for slaughter houses. Other successes along the way have included laws for lab animals, the abolition of fur farming in the UK, the ban of fox hunting with dogs and the animal welfare act. Today we are still changing the law - find out how. A nation of animal lovers

The greatest shift across the times has been in attitude. In the UK we’re known as ‘a nation of animal lovers’ but it wasn’t always that way. When we were founded it was a challenge to get the British public to recognise animals as sentient beings - and not just commodities for food, transport or sport. It’s inspiring to think how much more of a difference we can make

🐾 Important Update from RSPCA Rhyl 🐾

We want to thank everyone who has supported us during this difficult time. 💙
Thanks to a small but much-appreciated donation, we’re able to keep our doors open for a little while longer. For now, this means we’ll continue to operate for a few more weeks, how long exactly is hard to say, but we’re taking it day by day.

👉 Please note:
From 1st July, we will be closed every Friday as part of a necessary reduction in our opening hours.

We’re doing everything we can to stay open and continue helping animals in need, but our future depends on continued support from the community.

If you’re able to help in any way — through donations, fundraising, or spreading the word, it truly makes a difference.

Thank you for being there for us, and for the animals 💚
