New Animal Care & Welfare Assistant Role to help investigate cruelty, neglect and concerns and Vacancies as well as other roles

Submitted by Steve on 11:19, 13th Aug, 2024 | 0

The GSPCA has had to grow in recent years to meet the demands on our services and ensure the care and rescue of animals in need.

We are also sadly wishing well to two key members of our welfare team as Sarah Langlois moves to the UK and Lorna Chadwick starts a role with the States of Guernsey as an Animal Welfare Officer.

This has led to opportunities within the GSPCA team and what will be a new role as an Animal Care and Welfare Assistant role.
