ADCH Affiliate Membership is intended for not-for-profit organisations and individuals who are actively supporting (but not directly involved) in the dog and cat rescue and/or rehoming sector. This includes FE/HE/educational establishments and other animal welfare/industry organisations who do not rehome animals.
Individuals who are also actively supportive of the dog and cat rescue and/or rehoming sector may also become Affiliate Members by special appointment.
