Roles we have

Volunteers help in every aspect of our lifesaving work here at Yorkshire Cat Rescue, whether it is raising money at events or in our charity shops, giving a cat waiting for its new home some extra love and attention, helping man the phones and doing various admin tasks, or ensuring our centre looks welcoming and attractive to visitors and potential adopters. Every role our volunteers play are crucial to us and our success.

By volunteering at Yorkshire Cat Rescue you could make a real difference to a cat’s life.
