Meet Richard Mussell.

He is the CEO of RSPCA Australia and has been since January 2020.

The RSPCA is known for being committed to improving the welfare of millions of animals across Australia. The RSPCA has been operating for over 150 years, and RSPCA Approved has been part of the organisation for 25 years now. There’s a lot to learn when it comes to how the RSPCA implements higher animal welfare standards, and we’re hoping we can ask some of the questions you want answered. 

We sat down with Rich to understand more about how the organisation operates. 

In this chat Richard talks to:

• What is the RSPCA?
• Animal Welfare policy in agriculture
• How does the RSPCA affect change in the animal welfare space?
• Education resources provided by the RSPCA
• How is the RSPCA funded?
• RSPCA wanting to see improvements across companion, farm and wild animals
• How can the broader community see the work of RSPCA?
• The collaborative process between RSPCA and producers for RSPCA Approved
• Has there been a shift in the publics interest in animal welfare?
• Why does Richard work at the RSPCA?
