With just 11 days to go to the BIGGEST day in the GSPCA calendar we are calling on volunteers that can help with our BIG day.

With over 100 stalls and much to see and do the GSPCA is buzzing with activity for the 11th Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday taking place during our 151st year on the 19th May.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “It is an extremely busy time for us in the run up to our 12th Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday which takes place during our 151st year on the 19th May and we are appealing for volunteers to help between 7am and 6pm next Sunday.”

“The Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday is always an incredible and wonderful day celebrating animals in Guernsey and we have so much planned once again.”

“From animals to displays, fun and games to the dog show and Animal Mascots, not to mention all the stalls and charities joining us this is without doubt a huge highlight in our GSPCA calendar.”

“For anyone that can help or would like to get involved please call us on 01481 257261 or email [email protected] .”

“If you’d like to help at the Shelter and other areas of our work please do complete an application form by going to https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=gspca&method=online_form_html&formid=14 but for this event please just get in touch.”

"We are also in need of good quality cuddly toys for prizes and our games and would be much appreciated."
