Rescue, Rehabilitate & Rehome
The Galway SPCA is a charity based in Galway with a cattery in Briarhill and a dog sanctuary in Killimor, Co Galway. Our aim is to help, rescue, rehabilitate and re-home all animals to forever homes.

Help us Help the Animals
Our fundamental aim is to reach as many animals that find themselves in need, through neglect, abandonment, abuse or simply at risk due to a change of circumstances, as our resources allow.

As we move forward in 2024 and beyond with our first formal Strategic Plan, we can reflect on the work carried out by the numerous dedicated volunteers and staff who have been with our organisation over the years.
We’re extremely proud of the accomplishments that we have made together and the positive impact that we have had. We are, however, extremely aware of the many challenges facing us and the work needed to overcome them.
This strategy will hopefully act as a guide to helping us get there.
