RSPCA Tameside & Glossop

The Tameside and Glossop Branch of the RSPCA, in common with all local branches is separate and independent from the parent charity, i.e. The National RSPCA. The easiest way to understand this structure is to think of it in terms of a Franchise. There are over 160 Branches of the RSPCA and every Branch is slightly different from its neighbours. They operate their own animal welfare programmes, which run in tandem with the National Society. Each branch raises its own funds and manages its own affairs. The branch doesn't employ paid team and is run entirely by volunteers.
