Volunteer at Cats Protection Berkshire Cat Centre
Without volunteers, Cats Protection Berkshire Cat Centre simply wouldn't exist. Our amazing, friendly volunteers are a diverse group with a shared love of cats who fit volunteering around their home lives and personal commitments.
We're often looking to welcome new volunteers to join our brilliant team. As well as meeting great people and making an incredible difference to the cats of Berkshire, you'll enjoy practical benefits such as discounted pet insurance.
Please note: Although we do welcome everyone, unfortunately our centre is not set up to accommodate young volunteers under the age of 18, including those on the Duke of Edinburgh programme.
If you would like an application form or would like to know more about either of the roles below, it would be great to hear from you - Do please get in touch with Andrea at: volunteering@newbury.cats.org.uk or call 01635 200111 for a chat.
Full training and support will be given for all roles. We look forward to hearing from you!
