There are many ways for you to help raise much needed funds for Llys Nini, just some of them are listed below.
It would be impossible for Llys Nini Branch to be able to operate as effectively as it does without the dedication of our volunteers. There are many skills that people have which can be immensely useful to the Branch.

As a registered charity, the Branch is governed by a committee of Trustees. Trustees are either voted in at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) or are co-opted during the year. Trustees are expected to join the National Society in order to gain full voting rights. The National Society membership pages have more information. Meetings are held once a month and Trustees are urged to attend as many as possible. Emails and circulars are sent as appropriate to manage matters that cannot wait until the next meeting. It is difficult to quantify the commitment in terms of time, but a few hours a week would be the maximum that anybody could reasonably expect.
The Trustees have the opportunity to influence the running of the Branch, and to shape its future direction via policy development, running projects and strategic planning. We are always looking for innovative individuals, preferably with relevant experience, who are prepared to make a commitment to local animal welfare. For more information, please contact the Branch Chair, Sally Hyman. Email sally@rspca-llysnini.org.uk or leave a message at Llys Nini (tel: 01792 229435).
Further enquiries about the rehoming process should be addressed to the staff at the Llys Nini Centre. Tel: 01792 229435 or e-mail info@rspca-llysnini.org.uk
