Pets at Home in Newton Abbot has chosen Animals in Distress as their Charity of the Year for four years in a row, and the generosity extended to us by Simon and his wonderful team has been incredible.
The team have held twice-yearly in-store fundraisers which raise thousands of pounds, as well as donating pallets of essentials and goodies for the homeless pets in our care. In addition we receive invaluable VIP Lifelines from every purchase made by our supporters with their VIP cards and these Lifelines translate into cash to purchase all the essentials we need for the animals.
We are so very grateful to Simon and his team for all their ongoing support. They are such a friendly team and we really enjoy our time working alongside them in-store!
We are also lucky enough to have also been chosen as Charity of the Year by the Paignton store, and we are extremely grateful to Matt and the Paignton team for everything they have done for us in the last year.
“Animals in Distress for us represents the gold standard in care and welfare for animals locally that through no fault of their own find themselves looking for a new ‘forever home’
“This can only be achieved by pulling together a team of Staff and volunteers who so obviously are driven to achieve the highest levels of care for the animals.
“You only need to spend a few minutes there to see the passion and facilities that are geared up to deliver a first class operation.
“We here in Pets at Home Newton Abbot are proud to have Animals in Distress as our charity partner as we can see they are so very deserving of all the support our fantastic customers can give because they, like us, care so much for animals and focus all their energy on welfare, awareness, enrichment and education.

“It’s a perfect partnership and we hope it can continue for many years to come.”
