Animals need our help more than ever
We are seeing more and more cases of cruelty, neglect and abandonment from the animals that arrive via RSPCA Welfare Officers at our Martlesham Animal Centre. The RSPCA has updated the figures that apply just within Suffolk, that although are under the national average, are disturbing reading (all figures are 2025 v 2024).
