The Petplan & ADCH (Association of Dogs and Cats Homes) Animal Charity Awards 2024 is an opportunity to recognise animal charities, as well as individual team members and volunteers, for the hard work they put in to help give so many animals a brighter future.

Every year we see amazing support for nominations for individuals and the team and could you nominate us or one of our team in 2024?

In 2019 a GSPCA Animal Care Assistant was amazed when out of 7000 nominations she won the Animal Charity Employee of Year 2019 and we have had others as finalists over the years.

The award categories are:

Animal Charity Volunteer of the Year

Animal Charity Employee of the Year

Animal Charity Team of the Year

To nominate please visit http://www.petplan.co.uk/about-petplan/charities/awards/

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “The ADCH and Pet Plan Awards recognise the amazing animal welfare work that goes on 24/7 365 days around so many countries.”

“In 2019 one of our team won from 7000 nominations and we have had other finalists in the past.”

“We are members of the ADCH and I am also a Trustee and it is made up of 170+ dog and cat charities across the UK, Ireland, Isle of Man and Channel Islands helping improve the welfare for our pets and Petplan support animal charities in many ways including ourselves with grant funding.”

“Thank you to all that nominated charities and team members in the awards in the past and it would be wonderful if anyone thinks any of the GSPCA should be recognised in 2024 as the work here is 24/7 and couldn’t be achieved without our incredible team.”

“All year we have been celebrating 150 years at the GSPCA and we couldn’t do so much without the amazing work and support of our team and the support we receive.”

“We are extremely proud of all of our team and it is really special when we see them recognised in any way.”

“To carry out our work we have to raise £3000 a day to run the GSPCA and we are always looking for support.”

“There are many ways to support our work, seal pups and other animals, rescues, investigating cruelty and so much more and from making a donation to helping towards the new much needed Big Build can you support our 24/7 work.”
