Christmas at Woodside

It’s almost that time again for our Christmas at Woodside annual event on Saturday the 5th of December 4-7pm! 

Christmas Day is a time for being surrounded by the love of friends and family, but for the hundreds of animals who are still in search of their forever home, it can be quite a lonely time. Here at Woodside, we work tirelessly over the festive season to make sure that it is just as special for all our furry residents. Every year, we host our own fundraising event so that you can share some Yuletide cheer with our animals!

It’s set be a cracker of a day with lots of beautiful craft stalls and other homemade goodies, and all for a wonderful Claus.

Not only can you meet all of our animals, but you can also meet Santa himself to tell him how well behaved you have been this year! This will be a great family photo opportunity including whimsical tales from Santa’s workshop in the past year that will unveil some little secrets that you won’t want to miss!

Take shelter from the frosty air in our Woodside Tea Room where you can enjoy a classic homemade soup and a roll followed by delicious cakes or a hearty mince pie with a warm glass of mulled wine. If you’re feeling really decadent, you can treat yourself with a style change at our 'pop-up' salon with the fantastic team from Barrie Stephen.

Why not remember a loved one 'animal or human' by dedicating a star on Woodside’s very own tree.
Christmas is a special time for everyone, and the money raised at this event will go towards making sure our animals are safe and happy here at Woodside. They need your love and support to keep their spirits high and the merriment flowing!

If you think you might be able to give a Woodside animal the loving family they’ve been dreaming of this festive season why not pop by the centre and see the lovely furry faces that are just waiting to woof, meow and scurry their way into your home and heart.

If you would like to donate a prize for a tombola, bake a cake for our tea room or would like to help us create a magical event in any other way then please contact Steve on 0116 2324932 or email fundraising@rspca.org.uk for more information.
