Can you help abandoned and neglected animals?

Our rescue centre provides a safe haven for hundreds of dogs every year but with rising costs over the past few years, we are struggling to keep going. We can't do it without your support.

By playing the National Animal Welfare Trust lottery for just £2 per week, you will be helping us to give every animal that comes through our rescue the love and care that they need. You will also be in with a chance of winning up to £10,000.

Meet our rescue animals

Alma is an ex-racing greyhound who arrived at NAWT with an untreated broken leg. She spent a year receiving extensive medical treatment before she was ready to enjoy her senior years in a loving home.

John arrived at NAWT battling cat flu and in such a severe state that he needed emergency surgery to remove his eye. Safely recovering in our care, John will soon be ready for a new home.

Rocco was rescued from a life as a stud dog forced to live outside. He’d lost most of his fur and his body was covered in open wounds. After lots of love at NAWT, Rocco eventually left to join a loving family.

Roxy arrived at NAWT severely malnourished. She required a tailored nutrition plan to rebuild her health and strength. Now a healthy 50KG, Roxy is enjoying a quiet life in the countryside.

Acorn was found cold and alone. Too young to be alone, we introduced her to a mum and litter of kittens, and they soon welcomed her into the family! With love and care, she thrived and was soon ready for a new home.

Blue was dumped with his siblings in a bin liner at a local vet. They were all sore and covered in mange but TLC during their time at NAWT gradually rebuilt their health so they could start happier lives with loving families.

The animals are so well cared for and it’s hard not to fall in love with some of those waiting for a new home.

Lisa, Supporter

Working with the animals, rehabilitating them and ensuring they feel safe and loved is incredibly rewarding. It’s a privilege to care for them until they’re ready to join a new family.

Louise, Centre Manager

Amazing people giving these animals a clean, warm, happy place to stay until they find their new homes.
