Today Skipton Swimarathon posted ‘With just one month to go until this year’s Skipton Swimarathon, please make sure you don’t miss out and book your space today!
The GSPCA would like to say a huge thanks to volunteer Karen Brozka for making cards and selling them to raise funds for our animal welfare work and the many animals in our care during lockdown.
Karen said “Hope you are well and managing to get through this challenging time.”
“As Baxter (my goldie) and I have not been able to go out and rattle the tin for you lately, I decided to do a little fund raising.”
“Not much, £100, but hopefully this will help towards hedgehog meals or a few runs at food etc.”
Here is a wonderful challenge in aid of GSPCA and all the animals in our care –
‘I’ve set this up ( https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/simon-fairclough2 ) as my brother challenged me to cycle every Guernsey road during lockdown (there are more than 300 miles of them) using the current permitted maximum 2 hours a day of exercise.
The GSPCA would lie to say a huge thank you and good luck to Andrew Alford who is running the Matterhorn Ultra in aid of the Shelter and animals in our care.
Here are a few words from him and the link to sponsor him online -
Andrew Alford said "So the what am I doing."
"One hungover Sunday a few months ago I decided to run a marathon, not keen on road running I thought I’d do something different and stumbled on the Matterhorn Ultra."
"Having a slightly fuzzy head I didn’t really read up on it, just entered and paid my money."
The GSPCA was founded in 1873 and to help celebrate 143 years caring for animals in Guernsey we are asking for your help.
There are many ways you, your school, group, work place, business can help celebrate.
The GSPCA week starts 8th February and celebrations will carry on until the 14th with our anniversary being Valentines Day the 14th February.
Ideas to get involved.......
We are afraid to announce we will be postponing the Bastille Bingo tomorrow night at the Market Bistro.
We apologise and have informed those that were planning to come along.

Last night we welcomed some of our wonderful supporters to our Summer Solstice and Hawaiian themed bingo fun evening at the Market Bistro.
Celebrating the longest day and the Summer, in aid of the GSPCA we hold a themed bingo night each month to help raise funds for the hundreds of animals at the Shelter in St Andrews.
The night started at 7pm where Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager called out the numbers and handed out lots of themed prizes.
From garlands to cuddly toys, cash prizes to GSPCA mugs every table went home with something they had won.
