RSPCA Medway West Branch

RSPCA Medway West is a separately registered branch of the RSPCA, primarily focused on raising its own funds to support pet welfare in the Medway towns. The organisation offers support with veterinary welfare costs for people on benefits and low incomes, helping them manage the financial burden of routine veterinary care. Additionally, it operates a pet food bank to assist owners struggling to afford provisions for their animals, and collaborates with human food banks to broaden accessibility. The organisation's mission is centred on alleviating financial hardship for pet owners, thereby reducing the number of animals needing rehoming due to affordability issues. They provide practical assistance through direct financial support for veterinary care and by distributing pet food. Their community involvement extends to partnering with local services to ensure comprehensive access to support for both pets and their owners. Individuals can contribute to RSPCA Medway West through various donation methods, including Easyfundraising, Give as you live, and JustGiving for one-off or monthly contributions. They also maintain an Amazon Wish List for direct donations of pet food items. These contributions are vital for the branch to continue its work in the Medway area.

RSPCA Medway West Branch is based at The Parsons Memorial Clinic, Chatham, Kent, ME5 0PQ in Kent. The practice treats aquatics, birds, cats, dogs, exotic/wild and poultry and publishes prices for 4 services including consultations from £30 and dog vaccinations from £42. It is open at weekends, offers on-site parking and provides step-free access.
