Brightside rescues abandoned, abused and neglected farm and companions animals including those from puppy farms, hoarders and battery farms. It also rescues approximately 200 greyhounds from the racing industry each year. Animals are re-homed where possible but Brightside provides a permanent home for over 300 animals - from guinea pigs right up to camels and everything in between. Brightside runs the only education programme in Tasmania on animal welfare and animal rights.
