Cats Protection has partnered with two professional fundraising agencies. At various events, shopping centres and supermarkets, The Professional Fundraiser and Charity Link engage with members of the public about our work and core objectives on our behalf.

Our agency fundraisers promote the Cats Protection Weekly Lottery, Cat Sponsorship scheme and Cats Protection Membership, recruiting new supporters who will make either a monthly or annual subscription by Direct Debit. They will also provide contact information for rehoming, neutering and volunteer enquiries. Our fundraisers operate all over the UK throughout the year.

Face-to-face fundraising is a cost-effective way of generating long-term support through regular gifts, which are one of our most important sources of income, enabling us to help thousands of cats and kittens across the UK each year.

Our face-to-face fundraisers will always:

  • wear charity-branded clothing
  • wear a clearly displayed ID badge (usually on a lanyard)
  • work within the confines of their allocated position at the venue/retail space they are operating in
  • complete a health and safety and fire safety risk assessment, and maintain a safe environment for staff and members of the public
  • let you know that they work for an agency, if you set up a financial donation. They will also let you know how much the agency will be paid and how much we expect to raise from the campaign 

Our face-to-face-fundraisers will never:

  • ask for or accept a donation of cash or goods (in such situations we will advise members of the public to contact and make their donation through their local Cats Protection branch or centre)
  • behave in a way that might reasonably cause a nuisance or obstruct members of the public
  • do anything that might cause a member of the public to become alarmed or distressed

If you need reassurance that a fundraiser is legitimate, or you have another query regarding our face-to-face fundraising, please contact our Supporter Services team at 0800 917 2287 or supporter.services@cats.org.uk
