Why your gift matters
Without the kindness of people who choose to remember us in their Will, we could not continue to be here for the hundreds of Bristol’s pets that come to us in need of love and care each year.
This vital support provides a safe place for the cats, dogs, small pets and wildlife that we look after every year, ensuring that vulnerable animals get the care they desperately need. It also funds our kennels, catteries and small animal housing, providing us with vital funds to cover the running costs of our centre, from our electricity bill to cleaning supplies and special food.
Every single gift, large or small, matters and means that we can be here for Bristol’s most vulnerable animals for years to come.
“I have been a proud supporter and volunteer at Bristol A.R.C. for many years and I have adopted seven rabbits over time. The work the team do looking after lost, abandoned and stray animals – returning those who are lost to their families, caring for and rehabilitating those who are abandoned or stray, lovingly preparing them for rehoming to a forever home – is amazing and invaluable. Therefore, I will be ensuring that, in the event of my death, I will be leaving a gift in my Will so that I can make a contribution to this work continuing in the future.” – Helen W, legacy pledger
