Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Bournemouth, New Forest and District Branch

Registered charity 205126 · since 1962·Bournemouth, Hampshire, Lymington and Pennington·Updated 29 October 2026

Key takeaways

  • This is a branch of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals that runs its own animal welfare services, so it works more as a service provider than a conventional grant-maker.
  • Its stated priority area is Bournemouth, New Forest, Lymington and the district, and animal welfare work there fits its stated purpose.
  • The annual report gives no grants figure or grant range, and no way to apply was found, so a small nonprofit should begin with a short enquiry to the branch rather than a full application.
  • Support for other RSPCA branches and certain animal charities depends on the branch keeping sufficient resources, so those bodies should expect that condition.
  • No exclusions are stated, and the priority area is a stated priority, not a limit on who may apply.
