“Giving pre-loved items a second life allows us to help even more animals find their forever homes. We’d love to receive donations of unwanted, good-quality items—your generosity makes a real difference.”

Raystede is also keen to hear from anyone that would like to volunteer their time and help in the shop as there are a range of volunteering roles available too.
