On Monday we welcomed 6 new volunteers to the GSPCA.
The new volunteers during their induction learnt about the work of the Shelter and how to become involved with our 24 hour 7 day a week work.
Three of the 6 have already started helping out on reception and with the animals.
From cleaning the animals to gardening, fund raising to answering the phone there are many roles to help us here at the GSPCA.
We would like to thank all that came along and we are looking forward to everyone helping in the weeks to come.
This week many schools break up and many already have.
If you are 14 years or over, have you thought of helping animals during your Summer break?
Our next Volunteer Induction at the GSPCA is on Monday 20th July at 3pm.
All ages are welcome, but to help on site with the animals you have to be 14 years old or over.
