Christmas advert 2024 launched!

We are very proud to announce the launch of our 2024 Christmas video, made with the generous help of our friends at Offset Films.

This year we wanted the video to focus on our services that help support families in need in Suffolk who, for whatever the circumstances, may be struggling to look after their pet.

RSPCA Suffolk Central doesn’t just focus on the rehoming and rehabilitation of animals, we work with the local community to help keep pets with their loving families and avoid the heartbreak of anyone having to surrender an animal they love.

Through our work at our Welfare Clinics we are able to support low-income families in getting a vet consultation from as little as £15 and we can provide subsidised medications. If your pet needs ongoing treatment we can also provide financial help towards this if you meet our eligibility criteria of earning under £15,000 a year and living in our branch area. Our Welfare Clinics are based in Ipswich, Stowmarket and Bury St Edmunds.

We can also provide help to get your pet neutered. By using one of the vets involved in our scheme, you can receive up to 50% off the cost of having your dog or rabbit neutered or only have to contribute £15 towards the cost of having your cat neutered. At any other veterinary practice, we can cover up to 25% of the cost of neutering your animals.

Microchipping your dog or cat is a legal requirement and we offer pop-up donation-only microchipping clinics (keep an eye on our social media channels to find out when these are happening); or you can book an appointment for microchipping at our Martlesham Animal Centre from just £10 per pet.

We also run pop-up pet food banks that offer free food to those in need (again, keep an eye on social media to find out when/where these are run); but our Martlesham Animal Centre and Ipswich Welfare clinic offer low-cost pet food, pet products and accessories (beds, scratching posts etc.) for sale, and our shops stock a lovely variety of donated pet goods.

This year we are projected to provide nearly £40,000 of financial help across Suffolk through our welfare vouchers scheme and help 3,000+ animals in the community with visits to our Welfare Clinics, financial aid or neutering support.
