Membership
Benefits of Membership

Being a member of the Association of Dogs and Cats homes is a unique way of networking with like-minded organisations, large and small.

Our purposes are to:

  • Work together to develop good practice and influence others working in rescue and/or rehoming of cats and dogs
  • Address common problems and issues
  • Exchange information internally and provide mutual support
  • Combine resources to encourage Governments to introduce workable, pet welfare legislation
  • Exchange knowledge and experience in the building of new shelters
  • Achieve best value for money from suppliers


The ADCH is made up of 18 Executive Members who attend 4 meetings a year and pay a significantly higher subscription than the £50 that new members pay. New members (33 at time of writing) attend the April meeting (and AGM) and the October meeting, although they receive the minutes of all meetings. The two tier system was only introduced due to the limited amount of meeting space available at member sites, where most meetings are held to keep down the costs and therefore, allowing shelter visits.
