The Petplan & ADCH (Association of Dogs and Cats Homes) Animal Charity Awards 2025 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.
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
Closing date 31st January 2025.
To nominate please go to - https://awards.petplan.co.uk/
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 was a Trustee for more than 9 years and it is a wonderful organisation 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.”
“The ADCH and Petplan Awards are now open for nominations and it is an ideal time to show your support for charities, staff and volunteers that do so much to help in animal charities.”
“We are extremely proud of all of our team and there are so many amazing team members that do so much that help make the GSPCA ensure we can operate 24/7.”
"Pet Insurance is so important and it is worth shopping around but if you do speak to Pet Plan and decide to progress with them quote please do quote 1300011345 as like many insurance companies as part of the corporate social responsibility they do donate back to local charities like ourselves with this code."
PLEASE NOTE - The GSPCA does not promote any specific Pet Insurance but whenever choosing a policy please do ask if there is any way they support a local animal rescue and ensure you check the policy is the best for you and your animal(s)
