During lockdown 2 Samuel Bader helped raise funds through his vedge hedge stall.
Based on Jerbourg Road Samuel Bader who recently turned 12 years old runs a flower stall and earlier this year he decided that the profits would be split between the GSPCA and St Johns Ambulance Guernsey.

Once again we have been blessed with incredible weather during April, but sadly there are only days left on many beached that owners can take their dogs.
As usual from the 1st May until the 30th September the restrictions mean that dogs are not allowed on the following beaches between these dates –
Dogs are not permitted on Lihou Island and Lihou causeway all year round.
Thanks once again to the #GuernseyTogether spirit the 2021 Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday will be the tenth and takes place on Sunday 12th September.
We had planned to hold it in May but as with the reasons given for the Liberation Day celebration alterations the GSPCA have taken the decision to move from May to September.
On the 12th September 2021 10am to 4pm the GSPCA will once again be organising a day to celebrate the animals in Guernsey and all the wonderful work that is done to care for them.
Last May Hector a lovely black cat arrived at the GSPCA.
Sadly during his year we discovered a variety of health issues from diabetes to other ailments.
This meant many of the team handled this adorable chap twice a day as he required regular medications morning and night with a special diet.
Anna Paint GSPCA Senior Animal Care Assistant said “The Amazing Hector has left the building to go to his forever home.”
“He had lots of kisses, I gave him a kiss from everyone, he walked up the cattery chatting to all the cats, I’m sure he was saying goodbye.”
