The Halifax & Huddersfield District Branch wins the Petplan Charity Prize Draw
-
The RSPCA, Halifax & Huddersfield District Branch has won a valuable £500 donation from the UK’s favourite pet insurance provider, Petplan.
-
The Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) actively promotes animal welfare; it’s Halifax and Huddersfield branch is one of many branches across the nation, which is self-funded and relies on the generosity of the public to raise money to help treat and care for thousands of animals each year.
-
”We are really delighted to have won this money from Petplan”, says Adele Garbinskas, Deputy Manager of the branch.
-
“Having recently expanded, so that we now include the Huddersfield area, we are now seeing an increase in the number of pets that need re-homing. We aim to use the money to continue caring for and re-homing animals, ensuring we offer the best animal welfare possible.”
-
Alison Andrew, Marketing Manager for Petplan says, “We understand what a difficult time it can be re-homing a cat or dog and are glad to offer this extra peace of mind during the first few weeks of the animal’s life in a new environment. Having your pet insured is an important part of taking care of its future health and it also helps you to plan any unforeseen veterinary costs.”
-
Petplan works with more re-homing charities than any other insurer to help fund the care of thousands of homeless cats and dogs. The company offers a four weeks free insurance to every owner adopting pets through the shelters it supports and also offers free insurance voucher to visitors and supporters of the charities. Each month a prize draw is held from all the vouchers and cover notes issued and one charity benefits from the prize fund.
-
Petplan is committed to aiding the valuable work that re-homing shelters do. Charities such as Battersea, Cats Protection, Blue Cross and Dogs Trust are just a few of those that have benefited.
