Support for Pet Owners in Need

July 24th, 2026

At EERC, we believe that pets are part of the family. During difficult financial times, many people struggle to afford food and essential supplies for their beloved companions. No one should have to choose between supporting themselves and caring for their pet. 

Many charities, food banks, and community organisations across the UK provide pet food, essential supplies, and practical support to pet owners experiencing financial hardship. One example is the RSPCA's Pet Food Bank scheme, which works with local partners across England and Wales to help people care for their pets during difficult times. 

This meaningful support helps people keep their pets healthy, safe, and at home during challenging times.
