It is with a very sad heart the GSPCA bring this message of the loss of one of our team.

One of the senior and longest standing members of staff at the GSPCA 'Richard Chandler' passed away recently and has left the team at the Shelter deeply saddened.

Richard was a wonderful man, who passionately cared for the Shelter and the team at the GSPCA and he will be sorely missed by all.

Farewell and good luck Annie from all at the GSPCA

Submitted by Steve on 23:25, 27th May, 2015 | 0

Today was Annie Janes last day at the GSPCA and it was rather emotional for her after 3 1/2 years at the Shelter in St Andrews.

Annie joined the team in 2011 as an Animal Care Assistant, although she has worked on all departments including the reception desk, ambulance and even assisting with welfare work.

One of the most memorable last year for Annie was when she removed a dog from a hot car on a sunny day in St Peter Port with the police.

Another memorable moment was when she helped rescue Hanois the grey seal pup at Pleinmont at the start of 2013.
