Our Story
Since 1839 the Scottish SPCA has existed for one reason – to make Scotland the best place in the world for an animal to call home. We rescue, protect and lead the conversation on animal welfare.


Our promise
We are here for animals now and long into the future. We respond to the changing ways animals need us. We are focused on reducing intentional and unintentional abuse, empowering communities across Scotland and the long-term sustainability of our charity.

Gender Pay Gap Report
The Scottish SPCA fully supports the transparency gender pay gap reporting provides. Every year we publish a Gender Pay Gap Report and are committed to reducing the gap, as shown in the continued decline in the mean gender pay gap of 13.57% since reporting started in 2017.

It costs us £63,000 every day to continue the work that animals across Scotland depend on. Our work is only possible because of the generosity of people like you.
