Our charity was formed in 1962, and covers the old county of Westmorland including the South Lakes and Eden areas.
The day to day running of our Branch is organised by a committee of locally elected volunteers who are responsible for the overall management and administration of the Branch’s affairs. One of the most important areas of the Branch’s activities is the rehoming of cats and dogs. Our animals are housed in private boarding establishments 15 minutes south of Kendal and can be viewed by anyone looking to adopt.
Our Dog Kennels
Due to the closure of Milnthorpe Kennels, we are unable to rehome any dogs at this present time. However, we are currently looking at future plans for an alternative location.
Our Aim
- To alleviate suffering and to rehabilitate neglected animals.
- To find new and loving ‘forever’ homes for our animals.
- To promote neutering & microchipping campaigns around our area.
- To offer financial assistance towards veterinary treatment for those pet owners in receipt of means tested benefits.
- To provide information and on-going educational campaigns regarding positive animal welfare.
