Business Heroes and Corporate Volunteer Days 

   Not all super heroes wear capes!

 

Thank you for your interest in becoming a business supporter of RSPCA Cornwall Branch.

As a self-funded independent charity, RSPCA Cornwall Branch needs regular and on-going support from our community to continue our vital animal welfare work in the County. Currently, our business sponsorship packages are under review, however we are able to offer Corporate Volunteer Days.

    We are thrilled to offer team volunteer days that not only support the most vulnerable dogs and cats in Cornwall but also bring incredible benefits to your business.

    How Corporate Volunteering Benefits Your Team:

    • Employee Engagement: Strengthen bonds and morale within your team.
    • Community Investment: Show your commitment to giving back locally.
    • Positive Sustainability Action: Contribute to meaningful change.
    • Increase Employee Giving: Inspire a culture of generosity.

    Opportunities to Get Involved:

    We have a variety of roles available to suit corporate volunteer groups. Each will leave a lasting impact:

    1. Fundraising
    Support our mission by helping to raise vital funds. Your team can participate in:

    • Events: Assist at RSPCA Cornwall Branch events (primarily evenings and weekends, with occasional weekday roles for preparation).
    • Bucket Collections: Collect donations in local stores—rewarding and fun as you see your time turn directly into funds!

    2. Charity Shops
    Our shops in Newquay and Bude offer engaging volunteer roles such as:

    • Sorting, steaming, pricing, operating the till, and window dressing.
    • For larger teams, we can organise a competitive challenge between stores!

    3. Rescue Centre
    This hands-on opportunity at St Columb includes:

    • Maintenance work, painting, cleaning, and gardening.
    • While we cannot guarantee cuddles with puppies or kittens, you may meet some of the animals waiting for their forever homes and the amazing team caring for them.

    Supporting Your Volunteer Day:

    To help cover the costs of materials and make the most of your day, we ask volunteer teams to raise a minimum of £200 ahead of their visit. This can be supported through:

    • Company budgets or
    • Fundraising: We can help your team set up online giving pages and provide ideas to inspire your efforts.

    Volunteering with us not only makes a difference for the animals of Cornwall but creates a rewarding, memorable experience for your team.
