About RSPCA Sussex West Branch

Mount Noddy Animal Centre supports the work of the RSPCA in the Chichester district and surrounding area. Nestled in the beautiful South Downs, the centre provides care and assistance to hundreds of dogs and cats each year who need a second chance to find their forever home. As a local branch of the RSPCA, we operate within the guidelines and rules of the national RSPCA but we are a separate registered charity. We are completely self funded which means we rely on fundraising, donations and our five charity shops that help support the work we do.
