SPCA's Kawerau Centre is a small centre located in the Eastern Bay of Plenty and run entirely by a group of committed volunteers.
We provide an invaluable service to the people and animals of Kawerau District.
In 2017, the Kawerau Centre received 537 sick, injured, abused or simply abandoned animals into our care.
In addition to the centre we have a great SPCA Op shop in Liverpool Street in Kawerau. It raises vital funds for the work we do and is also run entirely by volunteers.
