Becoming a Volunteer is very rewarding.
It doesn't have to be a lot of time and there are many different tasks.

On-site at the Centre
Handling – some cats may be nervous and we have re-homed many so called ‘feral cats’ due to people spending vital quality time with them.
Cleaning – the cats and rabbits are cleaned on a daily basis.
DIY/General Maintenance – we are set in four and a half acres so general maintenance is always required.
Sorting – lots of goods come in and need to be sorted ready to be sold at our Charity Shop, our Open Day in August or our Christmas Fayre.
Administrator – Typing, answering the telephone, greeting arrivals and filing.
Away from the Centre
Home visitors (post and pre-home) – before and after people adopt and animal from us they must undergo a post and pre-home visit. Car drivers only please.
Fund Raising – Car boot sales, store collections, table top sales, or arrange a garden party, all which bring in vital funds for the Rescue Centre.
Charity Shop in East Wittering – Serving customers, re-stocking shelves and sorting jumble.
Game Checking – we get lots of children’s games i.e. Monopoly which need checking to see if all the bits are there.
Towel Cutting – we recycle any old towels that get given to us and use them to clean out the cats. They need cutting into flannel size pieces.
Knitting from Home – We always need mice bodies knitted, then we stuff them with catnip and sell them in our shop – the cats go mad for them!!! (Pattern available - please click here to download).
Cake Bakers – needed for our Fayres we sell these on our Home Produce stall or in our Furry Friends’ Cafe
Full training will be given to all volunteers
