About this event

Spend a day helping RSPCA NSW bring essential animal care to communities where access to veterinary services can be limited.

Join an outreach day, meet local people and their pets, and support the RSPCA team as they deliver practical animal-care services in remote and underserved communities across NSW.

It’s a hands-on way to contribute without an ongoing commitment — choose an available outreach day and help make essential care more accessible for animals and the people who love them.

    Important to know

    These are one-off outreach opportunities, so you don’t need to make an ongoing volunteering commitment. Availability depends on upcoming RSPCA community programs and locations, so you’ll need to register for an available outreach day in advance.
