Our Corporate Supporters

E.L.M Legal Services

The wonderful people behind ELM Legal Services, a specialist Will writing firm, have supported our vital work for many years by providing a free Will writing service to Bristol A.R.C. supporters who choose to leave a gift in their Will to help the animals in our care.

Jim Emsley, ELM’s founder said, “Having five Border Collies and knowing the time and effort and love these five dogs need, my thoughts are with the kind and loving people who run the Bristol Animal rescue Centre and helping them to help the animals in need is valued. However, as with most things this care costs money and helping with legacies in a Will is a simple and effective way of ensuring this work can continue. Hence we don’t charge the Standard Will fee for anyone who leaves a legacy to the Bristol Animal Rescue as an incentive to ensure this valuable and important work continues”.

Halo

We're hugely grateful for the team at Halo, a local digital advertising agency, who have been supporting us since 2021. From design work, to brand consultancy and strategic development, Halo's team have been instrumental in shaping our communication plans. They've also rolled up their sleeves and got stuck in with cat socialisation, gardening, painting and other work around our Animal Home.

Halo are the brains behind our 135th anniversary logos, and our city-wide trail (coming summer 2022!). They've designed some incredible artwork to help bring our appeals to life (such as our cat sensory wall artists impression, which helped our supporters visualise what their supporter could do) as well as providing artwork and designs for pin badges, digital adverts and more.

Thank you to Halo! Visit their site here.

The Letting Game

We joined forces with The Letting Game in 2018, and are very proud of our partnership with them. Sadly, one of the reasons that pets come into our care is that their owners have been unable to find accommodation where they are allowed to take their much-loved pets with them. We know that this is heart-breaking for all concerned, and so we are delighted to work with The Letting Game - Bristol’s only pet friendly letting service. If you are looking for pet-friendly rental property be sure to contact them, visit their website here.

The team at The Letting Game also get involved with our events and challenges, and have raised over £1600 so far. We look forward to their next fundraising adventure!

Ingenia Life Solutions

We are delighted to have the kind support of the fabulous people behind Ingenia Life Solutions, a local company who manufacture and distribute everything from hand-sanitisers to PPE and safety products for trade clients, all from their 3-acre site right here in Bristol! Ingenia reached out to us during the 2020 pandemic, to offer us free Bristol A.R.C. branded hand sanitisers, to give to our staff and volunteers, and plenty more for us to sell and raise funds to support the animals in our care. We were truly touched that they got in touch with us during such a difficult year, and are delighted to have them on board as one of our valued corporate supporters going forwards. Even better – their hand sanitisers are vegan and cruelty free.

Wayne, our friendly Ingenia employee said, “Animals give so much to us, and ask so little in return. During Covid 19 and the lockdowns, more and more people turned to their pets and furry companions for comfort. Whilst I am personally proud that we are an animal loving nation, here at Ingenia we wanted to make an extra effort to help raise funds and awareness of the difficult job Bristol A.R.C. undertake for us, which was made even more challenging during the pandemic.

Rocco the Rock Star series

We are delighted to have teamed up with the authors of an inspirational series of dog adventure stories with real-life rescue dogs as the key characters.

The books are beautifully illustrated and engaging for all ages. They promote both how much fun rescue dogs can be and encourage kindness between all beings.

There are a total of four books in the Rocco the Rock Star children's book series which were inspired by Rocco and Flo, the authors' dogs. We're PAWsitive that any children in your life will fall in love with the gang as they embark on adventures together.
