We will be hosting a number of events over the year to raise money so that we can continue to provide the high standards of care that our cats and kittens currently receive. We are always looking for volunteers to help us with fundraising, car boot sales and fetes. If you could spare a few hours or would like to contribute to these events by growing, baking, knitting or donating some unwanted items for us to sell, please let us know by emailing us at bwcatrescue@hotmail.com or by getting in touch via phone no: 08442573525.
The next street collection is:

Ideas for health and beauty, holistic therapies, gifts, jewellery and clothing are all amongst the wares on offer and there will be a bumper raffle with lots of prize treats too.
