Volunteers play a vital role in every aspect of rescue; from fundraising and transport to animal care, training, or community support. We’re looking for individuals whose commitment inspires others and has helped animals get the second chance they deserve.

Perhaps they’ve devoted countless hours to helping nervous or vulnerable animals, supported their local rescue community, or shown incredible kindness and resourcefulness in challenging situations. Whatever their story, we want to celebrate the volunteers whose efforts transform lives every day.
