Wilberforce 200 - RSPCA
Join Wilberforce 200 and start making a difference for animal welfare
Wilberforce 200 is a dedicated group of philanthropists and major supporters who are striving to create a kinder world for every animal.
Protecting animals future
Two hundred years ago, a group of people met in a London coffee shop, determined to change animals’ lives for the better. Brave changemakers like William Wilberforce and Richard Martin, who sparked a movement to create a better future for animals.
To celebrate the RSPCA’s 200th anniversary we are launching Wilberforce 200. This is your opportunity to follow in the footsteps of our founders and join a new generation of bold changemakers helping create a better world for every kind.
By pledging your support you’ll join other kind and compassionate individuals who share your passion to tackle the greatest threats facing animals today and help reshape the nation’s attitude to, and treatment of, animals.
It’s a scary time to be an animal. Now, more than ever, they need you on their side.
Will you join us and help create the future you want to see?
Never underestimate the power of a small group of committed individuals to change the world
Joining Wilberforce 200
By joining Wilberforce 200, you will change animals' lives, by speaking up for them, protecting them, rescuing and caring for them. Because all animals deserve our kindness, whether they live in our homes, on our farms, in labs, or in the wild.
