About RSPCA Hull and East Riding Branch CIO
RSPCA Hull and East Riding Branch CIO is a local, independent charity dedicated to rehabilitating and rehoming cats and dogs that have suffered cruelty, neglect or abandonment. Working in partnership with the national RSPCA, we provide safe shelter, expert care and ongoing rehabilitation for some of the most vulnerable animals in our region.
For more than 100 years, we have been at the heart of animal welfare in Hull and the East Riding. From our Animal Rehabilitation Centre on Clough Road to our charity shops in Hull, Beverley, Cottingham and Hessle, our work is rooted in the local community and powered by the kindness of local people.
Our purpose is simple: to care for animals and be their voice for as long as they need us. Every animal deserves safety, compassion and the chance of a better future.
Why run for us?
By joining Team RSPCA Hull and East Riding, you will be doing more than completing a race. You will be helping us rescue, rehabilitate and rehome animals who have experienced some of the toughest starts in life. Your fundraising could help provide food, warmth, veterinary care, enrichment, rehabilitation and the patient support each animal needs before finding a loving new home.
Every donation, every training run and every cheer on race day helps us continue our vital work for cats and dogs across Hull and the East Riding.
