During the school breaks we run a series of guided tours at the GSPCA and we have now planned for 2017 with some special tours for the children. You can also book a tour for a special event or birthday. For details on special tours please see below.
This is your opportunity to visit behind the scenes at our Animal Shelter in St Andrews and see the work being carried out for the new build.
We are arranging the guided tours on a series of dates at 2pm with the next this May half term.
At the GSPCA we are normally appealing for homes for animals, but we are currently appealing for your unwanted soft toys.
The cuddly toys we are appealing for will found good homes as prizes on some of our games to help raise funds for the Shelter such as our upcoming Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday.
If you have any unwanted soft toys then please pop them up to the Shelter or if you need a vehicle to pick up quite a few then please let us know and we can arrange collection.
In the middle of Winter on the 4th January a very thin unwell hedgehog was rescued in the grounds at Government House.
The poorly hedgehog which was half his ideal body weight would have likely perished if he hadn’t have been rescued and brought into the GSPCA to care for over the last few months.
The hedgehog which has been called ‘Governor’ has made huge improvements and as he has now reached a healthy release weight.
With only two weeks to go the GSPCA are busy preparing for the sixth Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday.
With a large cruise liner visiting it is set to be a busy day on the 28th May.
We are more than happy if any stalls or buskers would like to join us and if you are interested in supporting our day to celebrate animals in Guernsey please do get in touch.
The GSPCA with like to say a huge thank you to the organisors of the Liberation Day celebrations in St Peter Port and at the Last Post, both were amazing events and a huge congratulations to all of the organisors.
On Tuesday teams of volunteers took stalls to both events and had a wonderful day celebrating and raising funds for the GSPCA.
In St Peter Port the stall was manned by Steve Byrne, Guy Hardill, Joseph Fox, Ellie Fox, Michelle Champion and even 5 month old Dylan Byrne helped raise in excess of £2500 on an extremely busy stall full of games and GSPCA goods on sale.
Last week on Thursday 4th May we held our fifth volunteer induction of 2017 at the GSPCA and saw another packed room of 12 new helpers keen to learn how they can get involved with us here at the Animal Shelter adding to the 77 inducted this year taking this years inducted volunteers to a total of 89 not including others that have helped from businesses, groups and other organisations.
Yesterday Northern Trust broke a GSPCA record as over 100 of their staff have now helped volunteer since April 2014.
This was a literal ground breaking record as the team of 8 not only took the volunteer numbers from Northern Trust to 106 they also spent the day digging, weeding, planting and laying a disabled access path to our wildlife area and pond with help from the Work to Benefit team and Group Leader Ann Wragg from St Andrews Floral Group.
At the GSPCA we would like to on behalf of Guernsey CIPD share the details of how to nominate for the People Manager of the Year 2017 with only a few days left to vote.
Is there an outstanding influencer in your business? Someone passionate about people development? Someone who naturally impacts and motivates the people and the lives of those around them? If so, tell Guernsey CIPD about them and together they and you can applaud their commitment.
On Thursday 20th and Friday 21st April the wonderful staff from The Travel Corporation joined the team at the GSPCA.
This is the third year in a row team members from The Travel Corporation have helped at the GSPCA.
