Today the GSPCA had a wonderful call and email to inform us that we have been nominated in the BBC Make a Difference Award. 

The awards recognise individuals and groups who make life better for people in our Bailiwick communities.  

Their panel of judges have considered all entries and shortlisted 4 finalists, but we and you will have to wait a while to find out if we’re one of them. They’ll be announcing those finalists live on BBC Radio Guernsey in late summer and the final winner will be named in September.

BBC Guernsey's JKT finds out why Robbie the horse needs a home

Submitted by Steve on 16:19, 28th May, 2014 | 0

Today we had the lovely Jenny Kendall-Tobias from BBC Guernsey visit the GSPCA Animal Shelter.

Jenny came up to visit Robbie a horse who is in need of a special home.

Robbie arrived at the Shelter at the end of February as his owner could no longer care for him.

Since then we have had the vet and the farrier check over the 17 hand Dutch Warm Blood to tell us the type of home he will need.
