Bath Cats & Dogs Home events bring together supporters to help make a difference for the cats and dogs in our care. We're an independent charity, and these events are vital for raising funds and awareness of our work.
Some are organised by our Fundraising Team, others by our volunteer community groups. Either way, your support means the world to us, and the animals we care for. We hope to see you soon!
Lock up your boss. Change an animal’s life.
Calling all animal-loving businesses! Take part in our Kennel Break challenge an escape room with a difference.
How it works:
Nominate your boss, colleague, or team member to swap their desk for one of our kennels for the day. Armed only with a laptop and phone, they’ll have a set time to raise £2,000 to earn their release.
Colleagues can also get involved by fundraising to keep them locked up for longer! At the halfway point of the day, we’ll see who has raised the most, you or your colleagues, and this will determine the release time!
Why take part?
This is a team challenge like no other. While one person takes on the kennel, the whole workplace can get involved. Fundraising, sharing, and cheering them on (or keeping them locked up!).
- A unique and engaging CSR activity
- Great for team building and friendly competition
- A chance to support vulnerable animals in Bath and beyond
The challenge
We have limited spaces available for participants ready to take on the Kennel Break. You’ll compete against others to see who can raise the most and escape the fastest.
Can you hit the £2,000 target and break free?
Why it matters
Each year, more animals arrive in our care needing urgent help, from medical treatment to rehabilitation and rehoming. As costs rise and demand grows, your fundraising plays a vital role in helping us continue rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming cats and dogs.
Bath Cats and Dogs Home depends on the generosity of supporters like you to provide this essential care and give animals a second chance. Every year, we need to raise over £2 million to keep this life-changing work going.
What you’ll get
- LinkedIn shoutouts for you and your company
- Photos from the day
- A Kennel Break certificate
- The satisfaction of making a real difference
- A Top Dog award for the person who raises the most!
