It costs over £8,000 a day to rescue and care for the animals at
NAWT. As we do not receive any Government support, and are not eligible
for lottery funding we rely solely on the support and generosity of the
general public.
Thank you for your support.
SHOP ONLINE
We have a range of gifts, greeting cards and stationery items available to buy throughout the year. And remember 100% of the profits made go towards providing much needed help to the animals in our care.

Animal Sponsorship - Loving is Easy …. Caring Costs
It's easy to be sentimental about animals. But sometimes we owe it to our pets to be realistic. What happens to the abandoned and abused animals that no-one wants? At the National Animal Welfare Trust we try to find them comfortable new homes.
The Trust gives them shelter because we will never put a healthy animal to sleep…..
You can show that you care too - by sharing the care with us. For as little as £1 a week, you can help us to provide safe and secure accommodation for these homeless. Choose from a cat pen and dog kennel, to a green pasture for a goat, and runs for the rabbits and guinea pigs. Together we can ensure their wellbeing, until the Trust can find these animals loving new homes.
In return for your support, you will receive a welcome pack which includes a certificate and welcome letter, a photo of the animal accommodation that you are supporting. A twice yearly sponsor’s newsletter which tells you about the animals, two editions of NAWT’s magazine Animate per year, and a NAWT window sticker and key ring.
But more importantly, you will know that you are doing something practical to help needy animals and give them a second chance at life…..

Legacies - Helping us help animals in the future
We are a registered charity, which receives no government funding, so
every penny we receive from animal lovers really counts - and in 2009,
over 80 per cent of our income came from gifts left to us in supporters'
Wills - their legacies to help us help animals in the future.
The National Animal Welfare Trust has an easy to understand Aid to Drafting Your Will and you can request a copy by contacting legacies@nawt.org.uk
or by calling 020 8950 0177. Alternatively if you wish to discuss the
possibility of leaving a legacy to the National Animal Welfare Trust,
our Chief Executive - David Warner - would be happy to talk to you, please
feel free to contact him on 020 8950 0177.
Making a Will gives you the reassurance of knowing where your property will go, who will benefit from your legacy, and what arrangements will be made after your death.
It allows you to provide for your loved ones, and also means that if you
want to leave some money for a special purpose - such as helping the National
Animal Welfare Trust - you can do so with ease. Remember that whatever
you choose to leave to charity will be tax-free.
However you choose to remember us in your Will, please write a letter
explaining to your family and relatives why you left a legacy to the National
Animal Welfare Trust. You can then be sure they will understand your wishes.
You may like to store this letter with your Will.
Also, please let us know if you have included us in your Will. Knowing
about your support will help us to plan for the future and, to keep you
informed of our work. If you wish we will send you a regular copy of our
supporter magazine.
It's easy to leave a legacy to the National Animal Welfare Trust by including
a clause in your Will. There are several ways to help fund our work by
including the National Animal Welfare Trust in a Will. You can choose
to leave:
- A specific sum of money (called a pecuniary legacy)
- A valuable item such as a picture, antique vase or a piece of furniture
that could be sold to raise money (called a specific legacy)
- A proportion, or all, of the remainder of your estate after pecuniary
and specific legacies have been allowed for.
- A proportion, or all, of your estate after the death of your spouse
or some other person. This means that they are still able to enjoy your
possessions (such as the family home) during their lifetime but, after
their death, your estate can still go to charity
(Please note: If you wish to leave your share of any jointly-owned assets
including property, you should consult a solicitor as special rules apply).
If you have already made a Will and would like to amend it to include
a gift to the National Animal Welfare Trust you can ask your solicitor
to add a codicil to your Will.
If the total value of your estate is over a certain amount (as of 5 April 2007 this is £300,000) then Inheritance Tax may become liable, but any gift you make to a registered UK charity such as the National Animal Welfare Trust is exempt. In effect this means that the tax payable on your estate is reduced.

Recycle your old mobile phones and empty ink cartridges - Recycle
with Reclaim-It
In the UK alone, over 2 million printer cartridges are thrown away and
15 million mobiles are left, unwanted, each year!
Every cartridge thrown away could be feeding a National Animal Welfare
Trust animal for a week and every mobile left in a draw could help purchase
much needed veterinary equipment and treatments.
To help you recycle the National Animal Welfare Trust have partnered
up with a leading Electronic Waste Management company called Reclaim-It,
who are giving you the opportunity to get involved!
All we need you to do is collect empty cartridges and mobile phones instead
of throwing them away. We currently have a couple of methods for collecting
your cartridges and phones.
Request a free-post envelope - all you need then do is pop your item
inside and post to Reclaim-it for free.
Perhaps you work in a small office or a shop where you could display
a box of free post envelopes for your customers' and colleagues' use.
Or does your workplace go through a lot of cartridges? If so, why not
order a cartridge collection box for your workplace. When it's full all
you need to do is email us and we will organise collection and for a new
one to be sent out straight away.
To request any of the above all you need to do is e-mail watford@nawt.org.uk with your contact details and requests, you will then receive an email explaining when to expect your delivery.
