TEN members of staff from the Medical Specialist Group gave up a sunny Saturday this weekend to undertake voluntary work at the GSPCA.

The Guernsey Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals has a huge variety of duties that need to be completed on a daily basis and so are very grateful when islanders volunteer to give them a hand.

As well as the obvious chores of feeding and exercising animals and cleaning out the kennels and cattery, there are also a number of site-maintenance jobs.

Last night we held the first of our Volunteer Evenings of 2014 and it turned out to be the busiest we have ever held.

With over 30 new faces learning about the GSPCA and being inducted into how to work safely as a volunteer many laughs were had and serious notes learnt.

Despite a wet windy evening the 30 plus group were very cosy at the Shelter enjoying a hot drink while GSPCA Manager Steve Byrne welcomed them and gave the talk and presentation.
