Last week we held our annual AGM.

To open the evening President John Knight welcomed everyone to the AGM and thanked them for showing their support for the work being done by everybody present.

The event took place at the GSPCA Animal Shelter where we have been based since 1929.

A number of supporters, volunteers and staff attended the event which looked back at the previous year and also the plans for the future.

John Knight gave a report and said "We have again had a very active and successful year at the Shelter and outside."

On Saturday the 18th July the first ever animal came to stay in the new multi purpose animal welfare building.

We officially received the keys the day before and since then a number of cats have come to stay.

The first was 'Estra' who was adopted from the GSPCA last year.  Estra had been living in a greenhouse before being brought into the Shelter as a stray.

On Sunday we joined the Motor Seafront Sunday with our stall to raise funds for the animals in Guernsey.

It was the fourth of the Seafront Sundays this year.

We set up at 8am and before the day could even start the road was full of tourists, cars, bikes, and locals enjoying the lovely weather and the many stalls and entertainment.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said "Thank you to the Motor Seafront Sunday for allowing us to join them for their Seafront Sunday where we managed to raise over £600 to help animals in Guernsey."
