When did RSPCA start in Australia?
The first Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals in Australia was formed in Victoria in 1871. Since then, RSPCA Member Societies have been established in every State and Territory, culminating in the formation of a national body, RSPCA Australia, in 1980.
When was the RSPCA founded?
Founded in 1824
We were founded in a London coffee shop in 1824. The men present knew they were creating the world's first animal welfare charity, but they couldn't have imagined the size and shape that the charity would become today. Back then we were the SPCA - Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
