Giant Animal Mascot is a 5-a-side football event for the first time

This is open to mascots and individuals prepared to dress as an animal and play a fun football game with a rather over sized ball.    

We are asking businesses, pubs, individuals or anyone as a team of 5 or an individual and we can make extra teams on the day.

Don't worry about what to wear we will provide the Giant Animal Mascot suit and have over 70 available.

On Good Friday and Easter Saturday the GSPCA Manager Steve Byrne with the Easter Bunny held two fun events for groups of children with their parents.

With over 35 children taking part over the two days the families got to see behind the scenes at the GSPCA as well as learning all about rabbits and their care.

Each child on arrival received a Treasure Hunt bunny sheet, a lollipop, GSPCA sticker and pen.  They then had a picture with the Easter Bunny at the front of the Shelter before being shown around the site in St Andrews.

It is with a heavy heart that we write this blog to inform you that due to a number of recent cancellations we are afraid we are having to postpone the GSPCA Masquerade Ball at the Farmhouse on the 1st April.

We are hoping to reschedule later in the year with Save the Date, Youthe and the Farmhouse and we are already looking at alternative dates, possibly in September and will of course let everyone know as soon as we have dates set.
