With 2020 well underway you might be thinking of getting involved with something new.

Throughout 2020 we have Volunteer Inductions planned for those interested in helping with our wide and diverse work.

The first of these takes place on Wednesday 15th January 2020 at 6.30pm and all are welcome.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “What another amazing year 2019 was with our hundreds of volunteers helping us in so many ways.”

“We often see 100-120 volunteers helping every week and with well over 800 volunteers helping each year we cannot thank all of those so much for all they do to help animals and the work of the GSPCA.”

“We love to meet new volunteers and our first volunteer induction of 2020 is on Wednesday 15th January at 6.30pm.”

“You can come along no matter your age or interest and you can find out how you can get involved and help support and be involved with the work of the GSPCA.”

 “We have inductions planned every month through 2020 and we also love to hear from businesses and groups that would like to help.”

You need to be at least 13 years old to help at the Shelter.  If you are younger then you could still help.  If you talk to your parents or guardians they may help you with fund raising for the Animal Shelter.

To get started in Volunteering at the GSPCA we hold Induction Evenings and in the Summer Afternoons and no matter your age there is always a way you can help.

If you are looking to complete your work experience, Duke of Edinburgh or similar placement it is a requirement to attend one of these sessions to arrange a start date and complete the induction.

We are especially looking for volunteers to help with our grounds and conservation work, driving our ambulance on the weekends and to help in our charity shop.

The Volunteer Induction Evenings planned for 2020 will take place on the following days and times in the Event and Training Room at the GSPCA, but please do call 257261 closer to the date to confirm it is taking place. Inductions take about 90 minutes to 2 hours depending on numbers.

When you arrive to attend please follow the paw prints at the front of reception which will take you to the upper floor where the sessions are held. It is ramped access and any questions please do not hesitate to ask.
