A team of 20 brave and daring supporters took on our skydive challenge this April, jumping from 13,000 feet to raise funds for animals in need.

Not only did six members of our branch team take part, but we also received support from the veterinary nurses at the Woodbridge and Ipswich branches of Ryder-Davies Vets, as well as Wendy Bones at Woodward Markwell Financial Advisers, who selected us as their charity of the year for 2025.

We were lucky to have a lovely sunny day at Beccles Airfield and everyone had an amazing time and landed safely. The whole team managed to raise an incredible £7,400 (with the total sill rising!) that will help us continue to deliver our vital animal welfare services across Suffolk.

Our recent litter pick at Walk Farm Woods in Martlesham was organised as part of the Great British Spring Clean.

We hoped that through the efforts of all the volunteers involved that we could make a difference to the wildlife that live in the lovely woodland surrounding our Martlesham Animal Centre and we certainly did!

Over 30 volunteers gave their time to collect over 50 bags of rubbish on the day – as well as highlighting other fly-tipping in the woodland that was reported to the local council – what an amazing result!

A huge thanks to everyone involved and especially Litter Free Felixstowe who helped us with extra equipment on the day.

If you know of a green space in Suffolk that could do with some help, do get in touch with fundraising@rspca-suffolkcentral.org.uk – we may be able to organise a litter pick near you.
