The Sussex Reptile Rescue Centre (TSRRC) is a Charity number: 1210189 based in West Sussex which provides care, rehoming and treatment to ill, unwanted and injured reptiles across Sussex.
The Sussex Reptile Rescue Centre was started in 2024 by our founder Benjamin, who has a keen interest in Reptiles and Herpetology, including his own collection of Bearded Dragons, 2 Crested Geckos, and a Ball Python.
We are now one of the few Charitable Reptile Rescue Centres in the UK and 1 of 2 Centres in the county of Sussex.
The Animals we will take in, come from a variety of different backgrounds and circumstances…Unfortunately, due to the cost of living and energy rises, we are seeing more and more animals in need of a forever home.
We work hard to ensure that all animals are suitable for rehoming however being a charity and run purely by a group of dedicated volunteers, we rely on public donations and fundraising to enable us to pay for vets bills, medication, food and substrate to allow us to enable us to carry on with our essential work.
We are the only charitable reptile-specific animal rescue centre based in West Sussex and one of two rescue centres in the Whole of Sussex, making us the only rescue centre other than the RSPCA Reptile Centre in Brighton.
We are also one of the few Reptile Rescue Centres in England and Wales, alongside the National Centre for Reptile Welfare, RSPCA Reptile Centre, Brighton, and the Proteus Trust, dedicated to promoting Reptile welfare.
