Rare Opportunity to Bid on Four Dolphins from the Dolphin Discovery Trail – Auction Ends 12th December - ideal gift for Christmas
Following the incredible success of the Dolphin Discovery Trail in aid of the GSPCA and Autism Guernsey, we are delighted to announce a rare opportunity to own one of four stunning dolphins from the trail. These unique pieces of art are now available for online auction, with bidding open until midday on Friday 12th December 2025.
Each dolphin is a one-of-a-kind creation, decorated by talented local artists and sponsored by generous businesses. Bids start at £500, and all proceeds will support two amazing local charities this Christmas.
The Dolphins Available for Auction (Updated 1420 12/11/2025):
Two of these dolphins were kindly donated back to the charities, and two online pre-bids sadly fell through, creating this special chance to secure a piece of the trail.
To place a bid, email [email protected] . The online auction pages will be updated regularly with the latest bids at: https://www.gspca.org.gg/blog/rare-opportunity-bid-four-dolphins-dolphin-discovery-trail-%E2%80%93auction-ends-12th-december-ideal-gi
Steve Byrne, GSPCA Manager, said:
“The Dolphin Discovery Trail has been an incredible success, raising vital funds and bringing so much joy to our community. These four dolphins are truly special, and this auction is a fantastic way to support two charities that make a huge difference locally With Christmas around a corner what a great present one of these wonderful dolphins would make.”
Andrew Sparkes, Autism Guernsey Director, added:
“We are thrilled to offer this unique opportunity. Every bid helps us continue our work supporting individuals and families affected by autism in Guernsey. Thank you to everyone who has supported the trail so far – your generosity has been amazing.”
Don’t miss out on this chance to own a piece of Guernsey’s most creative fundraising event and help two charities this festive season and if you would like to view them please pop along to the GSPCA.
