If you're out and about why not pop by the Taste of Guernsey Seafront Sunday this weekend.
We will be setting up from 8am for a 10am start and it is their first Seafront Sunday of 2016 and first of the year.
It is likely we will be once again just outside Marks and Spencer with all of our fun games and tombolas.
The GSPCA will hopefully have a stall at every Seafront Sunday this year and on Liberation Day and we are looking for volunteers to help us out on the days.
On Tuesday 3rd May we hold our fifth volunteer induction of 2016.
We are blessed with over 600 volunteers helping the GSPCA every year and on average over 100 every single week.
Here are full details on getting involved -
We are always looking for volunteers to help at the Shelter in a variety of roles.
We are pleased to announce that Aoife and Mike are up to £1.051 raised towards their upcoming challenge and continue to appeal for your support.
On the 19th June they will undertake the Guernsey Dairy Half Marathon and are raising funds to help the many animals at the GSPCA.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said "Aoife and Mike popped in to see us in February for a chat and it is wonderful that they have chosen the GSPCA as their charity of choice with what I am sure will be no easy challenge."
Giant Animal Mascot is a 5-a-side football event for the first time
Once again we will be holding a Giant Animal Mascot event but this year there are a big twist.
This is open to mascots and individuals prepared to dress as an animal and play a fun football game with a rather over sized ball.
We are asking businesses, pubs, individuals or anyone as a team of 5 or an individual and we can make extra teams on the day.
Don't worry about what to wear we will provide the Giant Animal Mascot suit and have over 70 available.
The GSPCA over the weekend had issues receiving and sending emails from our provider.
The problem now seems to be resolved and we thank everyone for their patience.
The GSPCA have a number of email accounts ending with @gspca.org.gg and they appear to now all be working.
We are currently trying to reply to those emails we have received but if you have sent an email and don't get a reply in the next 24 hours please do resend your message so we can ensure we have received it.
Thank you again for your patience and we apologise for the inconvenience.
Last Thursday we greeted 25 new volunteers who packed the Shelter in St Andrews.
The volunteer induction was given by GSPCA Manager Steve Byrne which started just after 6.30pm.
The new volunteers sat in an area with two snakes in need of a home and the group found out about the work of the GSPCA, how they could help and an induction on working safely.
A pack was handed to each and also a certificate of attendance and thanks.
Last Tuesday the GSPCA took a stall to the Careers Show 2016 for the fourth time and were overwhelmed by inquiries.
Although the Shelter rarely has vacancies the GSPCA are always looking for volunteers to help in a variety of areas and this was of a huge interest to many of the visitors at the Careers Show.
For many of the Year 9 students it is the first time they are able to help at the Shelter, as to become a volunteer with animals at the Shelter the minimum age is 14 years.
This meant that hoards of Year 9's swamped the GSPCA stand to find out how they could help.
It's about to be that time again when the kids are off and many families and visitors are looking for things to do in Guernsey.
During the school breaks we run a series of guided tours at the GSPCA and we have planned them through 2016 with some special tours for the children.
It is your opportunity to visit behind the scenes at our Animal Shelter in St Andrews and see the inside of the new build.
We are arranging the guided tours on a series of dates at 2pm.
