WSPA !

For a world where animal welfare matters, and animal cruelty ends.
For 25 years, WSPA has aimed to promote the concept of animal welfare in regions of the world where there are few, if any, measures to protect animals.

Politically, we have campaigned to convince governments and key decision makers to change practices and introduce new laws to protect or improve the welfare of animals.

With generous donations from our supporters, WSPA has helped indigenous people set up new animal welfare groups, enabling the local community to have key involvement in the improvement of animals‘ lives.

Understanding that human ignorance is a major factor in the continuation of animal cruelty, WSPA‘s education programmes facilitate a change in people’s attitudes towards animals, and their plight, for the better.

Our rescue teams provide direct help to animals that have been abandoned, neglected or caught up in natural or man-made disasters all over the globe.


WSPA‘s work is focused on four priority animal welfare areas:

Companion animals - responsible pet ownership, humane stray management and preventing cruelty.

Commercial exploitation of wildlife - intensive farming and cruel management and killing of wild animals for food or products.
Farm animals - intensive farming, long distance transportation and slaughter of domestic animals for food.
Disaster relief for animals - providing care to animals in distress from man-made or natural disasters.
Building a united global animal welfare movement
The 25 year path towards achieving our goal has taken WSPA to the farthest flung reaches of the planet. This has resulted in our presence in over 70% of the world’s countries to date.
With consultative status at both the United Nations and the Council of Europe, WSPA is the world‘s largest federation of animal welfare societies.
We are proud to be part of a growing network with over 850 member organisations in 150 countries; this means that WSPA can bring together animal welfarists throughout the world to challenge global issues.
WSPA has 13 offices and hundreds of thousands of supporters worldwide.

MAKE A WISH FOUNDATION !
Make-A-Wish Foundation® UK grants magical wishes to children and young people fighting life-threatening illnesses. Since being established in the UK in 1986, we have granted over 4,500 wishes.

Make-A-Wish has no cures to offer and all too often some of our endings are sad but, during desperate times when there seems to be no hope, Make-A-Wish steps in and provides positive and uplifting relief. Most of all, a wish granted brings a time of magic and joy for the special children and families we serve.

SOS CHILDREN !
This is the UK charity homepage of SOS Children, the world's largest orphan and abandoned children charity. Supported by sponsors and donors worldwide, our children's charity provides a new family (in amazing Children's Villages) for over 60,000 children in 123 countries and helps almost a million more people through our projects around the world.

Our main role is helping children whose parents are not there for them: Aids orphans, street children, child soldiers and children orphaned by war, poverty or natural disasters. In places where there is a high rate of child abandonment, we also run programmes to help strengthen vulnerable families and keep them together.
