The GSPCA can offer ‘Home to Home’ rehoming as an alternative

Submitted by Steve on 15:11, 20th Sep, 2024 | 0

Over recent years the GSPCA like many animal welfare charities have reviewed and looked at the way they operate and one thing that came out of the lock down challenges we faced was rehoming animals in different ways.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “In some ways the lock down years are fresh in many memories and in others much further away but during these challenging times many animal welfare charities reviewed and looked at the way we operate and help animals in need.”

“One of the amazing outcomes from this was looking at rehoming home to home.”
