This is the RSPCA’s major fundraising event of the year and without the generous support of the community and volunteers we would not be able to raise the vital funds needed to care for lost, abandoned and rescued animals. We do everything we can to give each animal a second chance at happiness and events like Million Paws Walk help us to achieve this objective.

Some of these roles may include assisting with:
