IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
We are in desperate need of beds, toys, treats and food for the animals in our care.

THANK YOU LEYLAND TRUCKS!
We would like to offer a special thanks to Leyland Trucks who donated £500 to the centre. This has been used to build some new runs for a number of the kennels so our dogs housed there now have an outside area for fresh air, sunshine and stimulation.

New Run RSPCA New Outdoor Runs Preston New Run RSPCA Preston

The Preston Centre now has a late night opening session every week on a Thursday for viewings. This runs from 11.00am till 19.30pm (Last viewing is 19.00pm)


Over the up and coming months there will be lots of change at the centre.

We are currently in the process of providing runs for some of the kennels were the dogs stay. We will also be making 4 new hutches in our stable block for the rabbits to stay in as the building they are in at the moment is no longer adequate for housing rabbits.

As well as these projects there are other things we wish to do. We are in desperate need of avairies for the growing number of birds we are getting in at the centre. We also would like an indoor training centre on our field so we can train the dogs in our care and provide more support for new owners. All these new changes will help the animals in our care and with rehoming more animals with permanent homes.

Your help and donations are much appreciated.


VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

We are at present in great need of homecheckers in the Preston and Chorley District to assist with rehoming the animals. We are also in need of mature, enthusiastic volunteers to help at the Centre with cleaning and assisting staff with various other duties.


COUNCIL STRAY KENNELS OPENING

The new Council Stray Kennels will be opening at the beginning of June. They will hold 12 stray dogs from the Preston and South Ribble area for a maximum of 7 days before they are are moved into the rehoming kennels and will be up for adoption. There are also 5 kennels for isolated dogs which are ill. This is a vital building for the dogs of the Preston and District area.
