Volunteer With Byfleet Cat Rescue

Join our caring community and help support cats in need in a variety of rewarding ways.

We’re always looking for kind-hearted volunteers to join our BCR family. With the number of cats coming into our care increasing every week, your support means the world to us.

We always require extra help in the following areas:

Fosterers – to provide a safe and loving environment for cats coming into rescue.
Transport/Drivers – to move food and donations, collect surrenders, or carry out vet runs to our nominated vets.
Volunteers for our weekly pop-up shops and garage sales in the summer.
Support at our larger events throughout the year, including Easter, Summer, Halloween and Christmas.

At present, we don’t have a rescue premises—our cats are cared for entirely through our wonderful fosterers—but this may change in the future.

If you’d like to get involved or learn more, please email info@byfleetcatrescue.co.uk.

Thank you so much for reaching out and for supporting our work.

💙 VOLUNTEER TREASURER WANTED 🐾

Byfleet Cat Rescue is looking for a Volunteer Treasurer to join our charity team.

We are a growing cat rescue charity, and as our rescue continues to expand, we are looking for someone with strong financial skills and a passion for animal welfare to help us manage our finances and ensure the charity remains financially well-run and accountable.

🧾 What will you be doing?

The Volunteer Treasurer will work closely with the Trustees and help oversee the financial side of the charity, including:

– Monitoring income and expenditure

– Maintaining accurate financial records

– Supporting the preparation of charity accounts

– Monitoring budgets and cash flow

– Reviewing payments and invoices

– Helping ensure appropriate financial controls are in place

– Providing regular financial updates to the Trustees

– Supporting grant and funding applications where financial information is required

– Working with our bookkeeper/accounting support where applicable

– Helping the charity plan sustainably as we continue to grow

🐱 What are we looking for?

You don’t need to be a professional accountant, but we would ideally like someone with:

✔ Experience in finance, bookkeeping, accounting or charity finances

✔ Good attention to detail

✔ Strong organisational skills

✔ Confidence working with figures and financial information

✔ An understanding of financial controls and good governance

✔ The ability to work independently

✔ A commitment to confidentiality

✔ A genuine passion for animal welfare

Charity experience is desirable but not essential.

This is a voluntary role, but it is an important position within our organisation and would suit someone who wants to use their financial skills to make a genuine difference.

🐾 Every pound donated to Byfleet Cat Rescue helps us rescue, care for, vaccinate, neuter, microchip and rehome cats in need.

If you think you could help us ensure those funds are managed responsibly, we’d love to hear from you.

📩 Interested? Please message us with a little about yourself, your experience and why you’d like to volunteer as our Treasurer.

Help us keep the numbers right while we keep saving lives. 💙🐱

Become a Cat’s Lifelong Friend 💛

Your generosity makes a lasting difference. Every donation helps provide food, medication, and comfort to the cats who depend on lifelong care in their foster homes.
