Our Mission
We are the South London Branch of the RSPCA whose mission is to be there for all animals in our large area if and when they need help. Our enlarged branch was formed in 2021 following the merger of the Croydon & Crystal Palace and Balham & Tooting branches.
Our area covers much of the capital south of the river including Anerley, Balham, Croydon, Crystal Palace, Gipsy Hill, Mitcham, Norwood, Sydenham, Thornton Heath, Tooting, Wallington & Wandsworth.
The branch is run by a committee of locally elected volunteers who are responsible for the management and administration of the branch’s affairs.
We raise money locally to support our animal welfare work and have three shops in Croydon, Crystal Palace & Caterham (see our shops page for details) as well as an ebay site.
How You Can Help……..
We could not exist to provide vital care for animals if it were not for our wonderful volunteers and donors.
Every year thousands of animals suffer from neglect, cruelty and abuse. Together we can help end their misery.
There are lots of ways that you can help us to be there as the emergency service for animals.
Whether you want to give a simple donation or be a bit more hands on we’re truly grateful. Take a look around to see how you can help us make a difference to animals lives.
Donations
It costs our branch £6 a day to board just one cat. At any one time our branch could be caring for up to 30 different cats and kittens.
As well as paying for their boarding and food, these cats will also need regular veterinary treatment which can cost us several thousands of pounds per month.
In addition to the animals in our care, we also help members of the public who are on benefits or have a low income and who suddenly face emergency vet costs for their pets.
Donating to our branch means your money will go towards helping the most vulnerable animals in the local area.
