GSPCA Wish List – We are in need of a new under counter fridge for our wildlife and also a commercial washing machine and a main

At the GSPCA we are in need of replacing tan under counter standard fridges for storing our wildlife food, medications and supplies. Two other items we are looking for currently are a Commercial Washing Machine as we have so much laundry and also a mains gas cooker.

If you can help please call 01481 257261 or email [email protected]

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager “At the GSPCA we are often in need of items to help care for the 100’s of animals at the GSPCA and currently we are in need an under counter fridge for our wildlife unit.”

“This is used to store fish and food mainly for the seals, loggerhead turtle and hedgehogs as well as medications and other supplies needed to be kept chilled.”

“We are also looking for a mains gas cooker and a Commercial Washing Machine as the one we have for our kennels we are unable able to order parts anymore for it and it has stopped working.”

“If anyone can help please do call us on 01481 25721 or email [email protected] .”

“You can see many items we are in need of at our Amazon Wish List https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/25MJPPDAGXHL1?type=WishList .”

“We do promote buying items locally but shopping online can help raise funds at the same time as if you select the GSPCA through easy fund raising part of the amount through 1000’s of online retailers comes back to the GSPCA and it has raised over £2500.”

“To sign up to do this please visit http://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/guernseyspca/?u=1CHID8 .”

“Sadly Amazon Smile doesn’t allow Guernsey charities to sign up but you can go through easy fund raising to achieve the same donation.”

“As mentioned you can always chose to donate via local stores and the Amazon Wish List is a shop front showing some of the items we need but there are many others and we have published these on our Wish List page http://www.gspca.org.gg/about/our-plans-wish-list .”

“A gift of a tiny bowl costing less than a £1 to a £600 intensive care unit, every donation is hugely appreciated and really makes the team smile that there are those that care and want to support our work.”

“A huge thank you to all that have donated and supported our work we really couldn’t do so much without so many caring and wonderful supporters.”

“Our BIGGEST Wish List item currently is our BIGGEST BUILD which includes a Wildlife Hospital, Welfare and Rehoming Kennels and a Ferret Unit.”

“To find out more and support this much needed project please check out https://www.gspca.org.gg/blog/gspca-biggest-build-appeal .”

“Other items we are in need of are portakabins and a ship container to help provide space during the BIGGEST BUILD.”

“We are in need of a new Animal Ambulance due to the current one having done over 100,000 miles and also in desperate need of a new commercial washing machine.”
