Volunteer with us

Volunteers are a crucial part of our team here at Newcastle Dog and Cat Shelter. We are lucky and incredibly grateful to have so many loyal and dedicated volunteers and are always looking for new volunteer team members.

There are so many ways you can volunteer. From helping in animal care to becoming a shop volunteer or joining as admin support.

Below is a small selection of volunteering roles that we have available, and we are regularly developing new roles.

If there isn’t anything that is of interest to you currently, or if you feel you have skills or experience that you think would be beneficial to us, please do get in touch at volunteering@dogandcatshelter.com
