RSPCA Assured is the RSPCA's farm animal welfare assurance scheme and ethical food label. A wholly-owned subsidiary, the scheme is a charity and not-for-profit.

How does RSPCA Assured work?
We assess hatcheries, farms, hauliers and abattoirs to RSPCA welfare standards to ensure that farm animals have been well cared for throughout their lives. 

The standards cover health and diet to environment and care. There are standards for pigs, laying hens, broilers, turkey, duck, dairy cattle, beef cattle, sheep, salmon and trout.

Our experienced team of RSPCA Assured assessors carry out annual assessments and independent monitoring visits are undertaken by RSPCA farm livestock officers.

Our certification is farm to fork so we also carry out stringent supply chain audits supported by Lloyd's Register, NSF and BRC.
