Raystede is a charity that aims to give animals a better life through rehoming, rehabilitation and sanctuary, and give people the support and knowledge they need to treat animals with care and respect. Raystede cares for up to 400 animals every day, including cats, horses, dogs, rabbits, hens and exotic birds.

Raystede relies on sponsorship and voluntary donations to care for the animals in its care. The charity has experienced a challenging few years as the continuing impact of the cost of living crisis means it has seen a huge increase in the number of animals it has been asked to take in.

Did you know that a donation of £250 could pay for a year’s worth of bedding for small animals. A donation of £100 could pay for a chest x-ray for a dog with a heart condition and £50 would help feed a litter or orphaned kittens with milk replacement for 4 weeks.
