RSPCA Tameside and Glossop is a self funding branch of the national society of the RSPCA, managed and run entirely by unpaid volunteers.
THE BRANCH SUPPORTS OUR INSPECTORS by taking in dogs and cats which they have rescued. We raise all our funds locally to cover costs for their care in kennels, catteries or foster homes and any veterinary fees which can sometimes run into thousands of pounds. Once the animals are fit and healthy we actively seek to match them with a suitable family who will provide them a new home and future. Animals which come into our care have often experienced cruelty, accidents and injury or abandonment.
Whilst we are restricted at the branch level in the type of animal we can provide care for, the National RSPCA actively rescues pets, wildlife and farm animals. Read more about our branch here.

New Scheme
January 2022
For several years the branch has been donating dog and cat food to local food banks so that their members are able to collect food for their much loved family pets. Thanks to a small legacy we are hoping to extend our help to the animals of people who are finding it difficult to provide food for their animals in these hard times but may not use the food banks.
If you are in the Tameside and Glossop area and are faced with an unexpected bill which leaves you struggling to feed your family including your pets please don’t hesitate to ask us to help out. We can’t guarantee that we will be able to deliver the same food your dog or cat is used to but we will do our best to provide this or an acceptable alternative.
Fore help please send us an email or leave a voicemail at 07954122481
