EMPOWERING THE NEXT GENERATION OF ANIMAL ADVOCATES

Welcome to our animal education website! The activities here are for everyone who wants to help others learn about animals, understand their behaviour, and make their lives better.

Let’s make animals' lives better

We’ve co-created these lessons and activities with teachers, parents, children and science teams. So our education content is a fun and valuable way for children to learn and it will have a real benefit to animals too.

New learning pathway

Duke of Edinburgh Award

Did you know that anyone doing their Bronze or Silver DofE can volunteer with the RSPCA?

They can mix and match activities including campaigning, fundraising, and practical help for wildlife and pets. It’s fun, they’ll learn new skills, and they’ll be improving the lives of animals.

How will you inspire the next generation?

Whatever your role, we've got free resources ready.
