Our Mission

Helping Hands charity was set up in 2007 by a group of 9 people who wanted to help animals in the Famagusta (Cyprus) area.

To raise funds to help rescuers, a charity shop was set up, led by Celia Shayler.

The charity shop is supported by donations of clothes, shoes, bags and bric-a-brac from the general public, and all profit goes to help the animals in the following ways:

  • Neutering vouchers for cats and dogs, at a considerably cheaper cost
  • Non-profit registered rescues for both cats and dogs receive donations every 3 months to cover their veterinary bills
  • Support for veterinary costs

Celia retired in 2024, and the shop continues to be run by a team of volunteers.

Neutering vouchers

Neutering vouchers are available at the Helping Hands charity shop in Paralimni on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays between 9:00 and 12:30.

The cost is €20 for males and €25 for females, with the vet charging only for an antibiotic injection.
