Welcome to the SPCA Canterbury

SPCA Canterbury, Wilmers Road, Christchurch, NZ

'We speak for those that cannot speak for themselves'

 

SPCA Canterbury is an organisation dedicated to looking out for the welfare of animals in your  community. Our core role is to prevent or reduce cruelty or suffering to animals through education and enforcement, where necessary.

We are generously supported and funded through bequests and donations from the people of Canterbury. It costs over one million dollars a year to run the services provided by the organisation, which receives no direct government funding.

Donations made to SPCA Canterbury assist the operation of the local animal centre on Wilmers Road, Hornby, support the work of the Inspectorate, provide community education on animal welfare issues and help the SPCA to bring about improvements in animal welfare legislation.

Celebrate World Animal Day & The Blessing of the Animals on Sunday October 3

SPCA Cupcake Day - a sweet day out!

 This year, 210 Canterbury cupcake cooks registered for the 2010 SPCA Cupcake Day. They eagerly thumbed through their recipe books, baked up a storm, and then called on family and friends to buy their sweet creations. 

The animals and staff of SPCA Canterbury thanks all these wonderful people for their involvement and fantastic efforts in raising funds for the SPCA Cupcake Day 2010.
