Bristol Animal Rescue Centre (Bristol A.R.C.)
At Rocco the Rock Star we have partnered with Bristol Animal Rescue Centre to help raise funds to support the charity
Bristol A.R.C
Being Bristolians this charity is very close to our hearts. Bristol Animal Rescue Centre has been caring for the city’s unwanted and rescued pets and wildlife for over 130 years. The charity is the oldest and largest local animal charity, helping, healing and homing over 10,000 vulnerable animals each year. Bristol A.R.C. is affiliated with the RSPCA, however it does not receive any automatic funding from the RSPCA and relies entirely on local community support to carry out its vital work. At Rocco the Rock Star HQ we are committed to raising awareness of the joys of rescue dogs and promoting kindness to animals and each other. As a business we try and give back where we can to help charities that work with rescue dogs here in the UK and abroad.
Supporting Bristol A.R.C.
Their mission statement is to prevent cruelty and promote kindness to animals as well as reducing animal suffering and increasing animal wellbeing as much as possible.
Their welfare principles are based on the RSPCA’s ‘5 Freedoms’:
- Freedom from hunger and thirst
- Freedom from discomfort
- Freedom from pain, injury and disease
- Freedom to express normal behaviour
- Freedom from fear and distress
Subject to space, the charity aims never to turn away an animal in need of their help. They always go the extra mile to meet the particular welfare needs of each animal in their care. As well as enrichment, diet, play and expert veterinary care, all animals are respected and treated with empathy and compassion.
