The Coventry animal centre re-build appeal has been launched in a desperate attempt to raise funds to replace the worn out kennels and service buildings that provided a Safe Haven for over 1,000 animals during 2005.

The estimated cost of the project is approximately 拢1.3 million pounds and our Coventry RSPCA workers are faced with the challenge of raising at least 拢600,000 of that money through local fundraising activities, donations and legacies.

We lent a camera to one of the inspectors, Nikki Smith, and she kept a video diary for a week, to show us what life is like in the animal centre. The video also demonstrates why the re-build is needed, with a few personal stories of animals the centre helped during the week of filming.

Plans have already been drawn up for the re-build and subject to planning consent it鈥檚 hoped the work could begin in Spring 2008, as long as enough funds have been raised.
