  • Wild animal rescue and first aid,
  • Emergency care,
  • Domestic animal health checking,
  • Animal handling and grooming,
  • Animal behaviour and psychology,

  • An introduction to the GSPCA and the history of animal welfare,
  • and an Introduction to careers with animals

8 sessions Tuesdays 6.30 pm - 8.00 pm

Location: GSPCA Animal Shelter Rue des Truchots, St. Andrews

The next course starts 25th March 2014

The cost of the course is £60 and payable to WEA

The Tutor for the course is Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager who has over 16 years experience managing RSPCA Animal Shelters, a wealth of experience from owning a large variety of his own pets, volunteering and working in a number of other animal environments, experience in working with International groups in animal care and has been with the GSPCA for over two years.

Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said 'The first two courses have been great fun and there is always a buzz in the room with many questions.'

'The current course has its last session next Monday and it is always a sad day to say good bye to a great group.'

‘The training is open to all age groups and is a great way to learn about some key skills and knowledge in caring for animals.'

We now run a series of other training opportunities at the Shelter and we are looking at others that we can provide.’
