URGENT APPEAL – As our 20 year old Commercial Dryer sadly passes can you help us with a new machine at the GSPCA

Submitted by Steve on 15:03, 13th Sep, 2018 | 0

At the GSPCA our current Commercial Dryer has sadly, after more than 20 years passed over to laundry heaven as parts are no longer available to maintain the old girl.

For over 2 decades this work horse has tirelessly tumbled for 365 days a year drying 1000’s of dog beds, blankets, towels and sheets to enable the animals in our care to have dry and clean bedding.

We have been shopping around and to replace the machine and fitting will cost £3,500 and the GSPCA are appealing for help.

Today the GSPCA team have been very busy preparing and clearing areas for work to be carried out tomorrow.

We are hugely grateful to GFF Flooring who are donating and fitting flooring to our Hospital area and thanks to a grant from the Co-op Helping Hands they are also fitting a new floor in the ferret room both of which are desperately needed due to the aged floors they currently have.

With the lovely weather many of the animals have gone into outside cages and aviaries and others have gone into other sections of the GSPCA.

The GSPCA has been situated in the heart of Guernsey in the Parish of St Andrews since 1929.

The GSPCA site has transformed over the years and especially in recent years with the kennels being rebuilt in 2005 and the new multi purpose animal welfare building in 2016.

The Animal Shelter helps in excess of 3000 animals every year that come though the doors, but there are many more supported by the work we do.
