Can you help us at the GSPCA with the preparations and repairs needed ahead of our BIGGEST BUILD?

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “The GSPCA is now through the tender stage and in negotiations in regards the BIGGEST BUILD at the GSPCA.”

“This is without doubt the BIGGEST BUILD in our 151 year history and we continue to fund raise and appeal for help, but before we can move forward we need helping hands.”

“We have a number of challenges to complete that we are looking for volunteers, volunteer groups, corporates and anyone keen to help.”

“The first is completing the preparation work for the ground of aviaries we lost during Storm Ciaran last year.”

“We have had Breton help start the preparation and BNP Paribus have laid some membrane and mesh to prevent animals digging in and out of aviaries which need to be built, some from the 2023 Saffrey Champness Rotary Walk and others from our insurance claim from Storm Ciaran last year.”

“We are due some stone dust and patio slabs from Norman Piette to form the aviary wall foundations and then the aviaries which are basically a lego set can then be erected and we are looking for volunteers to help with this work.”

“We are also massively grateful to Stan Brouard who have donated 5 fabulous sheds of amazing quality which have just arrived flat packed and we want to give an extra coat of preserve which we are also appealing for as well as the help to do this before erecting them in an area away from the new build so we can relocate the wildlife and hedgehogs in buildings which are going to be knocked down.”

“Once these are up we are looking for help with lino flooring for them and electrics for the lights and intensive care units which we are also appealing for.”

“As well as this we are having to clear 8 buildings and have a lot to recycle, relocate and dispose of from buildings which some date back to the 1940’s ahead to the asbestos work and checks before we can move to the next stage.”

“If you can help in anyway please call 257261 or email me [email protected] .”
