We are a truly local charity providing essential animal welfare services across Suffolk

The RSPCA Suffolk Central branch exists to help animals across Suffolk. Our Animal Centre in Martlesham can care for over 100 animals in need at any one time. Through our welfare clinics and financial assistance scheme we support nearly 3,000 people and pets annually by providing heavily subsidised veterinary treatment.

95% of everything we do is funded by support from our local community via our charity shops, fundraising efforts, donations and gifts in Wills.

Adoption & rehoming

Our Animal Centre based in Martlesham has up to 100 animals in our care at any time. Could you offer a forever home to an animal in need? Take a look at our current residents below.

Pet of the week

Skipper

Skipper came into the centre after being kept in inappropriate conditions.

Unfortunately, along with his 4 friends, Skipper was confirmed to have ringworm which takes a lot of time to resolve! Thankfully, after months of treatment they are all ready to find their new forever homes!

Skipper is a sweet natured boy but can be a bit timid around loud noises and strangers. Since settling in with us, Skipper is showing more and more of his loving side with each day he is here. We are hopeful that once he is settled in a loving home where he feels safe, he will continue to show more and more of his character.

Skippers is currently on sensitivity food for a sensitive stomach which the branch will help with funding towards.

Do you have space for this lovely chap?

You made a difference in 2024

There are many ways YOU can help raise the vital funds that we need to deliver our vital services. RSPCA Suffolk Central receives no funding from the government, all the running costs of the branch comes from generous donations, fundraising and legacies from the public and local community. But together this is what we achieved last year..
