The Scottish SPCA is appealing to animal lovers in Edinburgh to help animals in their care by donating prizes for their Scottish Animal Week open day raffle!
Scotland’s animal welfare charity is hosting open days at their centres throughout Scotland on 10 September to encourage the public to come along to meet the animals who are in their care.
Centre Manager Diane Aitchison is appealing for kind hearted locals to donate. Diane said, “We’re looking forward to the open day and we’re hoping it’ll encourage people to rehome an animal!
“We’ll be running different events on the day and would really appreciate any donations for the raffle.
“The money raised on the day will help the abused, abandoned and injured animals who are in the care of the centre.
“As an animal welfare charity we receive no government or lottery funding so we rely entirely on the support of the public.”
Donations can be handed into the centre in Balerno which is located on Mansfield Road.
