Welcome to Gloucestershire Animal Welfare Association and Cheltenham Animal Shelter. We rescue and re-home unwanted and abandoned stray cats, dogs and small animals from across Gloucestershire.

Each year we help around 1000 animals who need support, care and treatment at a cost of approximately £500,000 without the help of any Government or Lottery funding.

The Charity therefore relies greatly on the generosity of people like you to ensure that our doors remain firmly open. Please take a moment to have a look around our site and help us to help them.
