About Us

Longview Animal Centre was first opened on 20th August 1958 by the international singing star Eve Boswell. The animal centre is open to the public Tuesday - Sunday from 11:00-16:00. We are also open on Bank Holiday Mondays.

We have a small team of paid staff but, due to financial constraints, we rely heavily on our excellent volunteers. If you regularly have a few hours each week to spare, and would like to help, please pop in and see us or give us a ring on 01253 763991.
