USPCA - Ulster Society of Prevention of Cruelty to Animals

 The Ulster Society for the Prevention Cruelty to Animals (USPCA) is the second oldest Animal Welfare Charity in the world. It was founded in 1836 by Commander Francis Anderson Calder, a retired navy officer, as the Belfast SPCA. The eventual name change from Belfast to Ulster SPCA acknowledged the scale, scope and success of the Charity’s expanded operations across the province. 

 Volunteering with the USPCA is a great way to get involved with the charity and is a rewarding way to spend some of your free time.

Volunteers are an essential part of the USPCA team and make a huge difference to our work.
