I would like to know what input National Office had in the problems of this branch, since they are doing their best to ruin Te Awamutu now. They have tried to split the committee but we are hanging tight, although we have no control over our shelter now as the Inspectors took it over, after telling lies about the involvement of the local council.

Thank You for your comments Hazel .
We have many supporters of the genuine work which the SPCA/RNZSPCA did in the past and we are concerned that many are being railroaded out to make way for the new guard who are after the assets.
Please feel free to email me directly or phone me , I am happy to be central information collation point and do what we can to support those who care about animals more than they care for money.
