JKR REBRAND RSPCA//

RSPCA has updated its branding for the first time since the 1970s. Although research showed the brand ranked highly in terms of awareness, faced with a growing animal welfare crisis being driven by industrial farming methods, climate change, and increasing urbanisation, the leadership team felt it was time to rethink the charity’s image and messaging.

“Animals are now facing some of the biggest challenges ever,” explains Chris Sherwood, chief executive at RSPCA, who says that to create a better world for animals, it needs as many people as possible to join the mission. “To do that, we needed to relook at ourselves as a brand and align our purpose, positioning and identity to achieve our goals.”
