Withington, we have arrived!

For many years we have wanted to open a shop in Withington and finally this year we've achieved our dream! All hands were on deck and our team worked so hard getting the shop ready including a complete refit, decorating and stocking up. Choosing the perfect wallpaper design was high on the agenda as well as general 'beautification!'





I think you'll agree the result was more than worth it and on the 11 June 2018 we opened our brand spanking new charity shop on Wilmslow Road! 




Fast forward and we've been open a month and its been going better than any of us expected! We've been really well received within the community and sales have been fantastic. Our charity shops fund our work therefore the more money they make the more animals we can help who have been rescued from cruelty, neglect and abandonment by the National RSPCA inspectors. The shop couldn't have opened at a better time as demand on the charity has continued. In June our animal rehoming team smashed their adoption record and rehomed 56 animals (that's 31 cats, 11 rabbits, 6 guinea pigs, 6 rats and 2 reptiles!). So a huge thank you to everyone that has made us so welcome to the area!


Just some of the animals we rehomed in June!

Would you like to get involved?

We're are on the look out for volunteers to fill the following roles. Generally volunteers spend a few hours per week with us:

- A dedicated clothes steamer
- Shop floor assistant to help with house keeping and general tidying.
- Working the till and general customer service.
- Volunteer to help with stock output and stock rotation.

Volunteer roles look great on your CV and you'll be part of a thriving team who put in 100% effort into raising money for our animals.

Call 0161 434 9374 (ask for lovely manager Lauren)
or email rspcamcr_salford@btconnect.com

If you can't help out in the shop we are always in desperate need of items to sell, we can't keep up with demand which is brilliant!


We particularly need:
