During the May and early June school break next week and through the year we run a series of guided tours at the GSPCA.
You can also book a tour for a special event or birthday. For details on special tours please see below.
This is your opportunity to visit behind the scenes at our Animal Shelter in St Andrews and see the work being carried out.
We ask for a minimum donation of £7 per person and £5 per child, or £20 for a family of four or £18 with an Islands Mum card. In 2018 we have some themed tours which are £20 per child or £17.50 with an Islands Mums card.
The tours take around 60-90 minutes and you get to see in many of the departments, interact with some of the friendly residents and a variety of species. The special tours can take a little longer.
Tours are a maximum of 20 people per tour, so please book early. The special tours are also a maximum of 20.
Some of the animals you will have the chance to see will be cats, rabbits, birds, hedgehogs, dogs looking for homes and some of the other wildlife.

"We also run birthday tours which also are hugely popular."
"From our turtles to the cats, the charity shop to our poison garden there is so much to see at the GSPCA and you might even get to see baby animals like Harry the hogelt or baby birds being fed."
