RSPCA East Norfolk Branch

About RSPCA East Norfolk

The RSPCA East Norfolk is an independent branch of the RSPCA, covering the area of Gt. Yarmouth and Gorleston to the south and stretches almost as far as Cromer in the north. The aim of the branch is to ensure that all animals brought to it because of neglect, ill-treatment or because they are no longer wanted are given the best possible care before being re-homed. At present their pets are looked after at private boarding establishments and also in fosterer’s homes when extra TLC is required. The branch also has a clinic on Tar Works Road, Gt. Yarmouth which provides essential care for sick pets whose owners are unable to afford vets bills.

By playing the lottery you can help the branch achieve its aim of improving the clinic facilities which are now showing their age and it has reached full capacity for animals it can currently treat. This redevelopment will enable the branch to continue helping animals in need across East Norfolk by providing the facilities needed as well as the much needed capacity. They are also aiming to offer a community hub where they can offer advice and support for those pet owners who need it as well as being able to offer more education.

From your very first game, you will be helping RSPCA East Norfolk to raise vital funds, some examples of what your contribution could pay for:

• £10 provides flea and worming treatment for a cat for 1 year.
• £35 enables us to neuter a cat.
• £50 enables us to rehome an animal and give it a fresh start.

The branch receives no government funding and therefore relies on the generosity of the supporters and members of the public to help continue the vital work of rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming animals.

How Do I Win?

When you join, we will allocate you with a lottery play number. Our draws are randomly drawn each Friday (with exception when this is a Bank Holiday, when it will take place the working day prior). You don’t need to check the results every week, although you can if you want to. If you win, we will contact you to let you know. If we have your email, your prize winnings will automatically go into your make a smile lottery account; where you can then request a withdrawal, after which monies are then transferred into your bank account, or if you don’t have an email with us, a letter and cheque will be sent via post (please make sure that we have your up to date address).
