Guided Tours sell out at the GSPCA - more coming soon and special tours available

Submitted by Steve on 23:28, 6th Jun, 2016 | 0

Last week during the half term we held tours around the GSPCA to see the hundreds of animals in our care.

Every Spring we help hundreds of baby birds, hedgehogs and many more wild animals and birds.

The guided tours took groups of over 20 each day behind the scenes and due to the numbers of animals many of the tours took over 2 hours.

We asked for a minimum donation of £5 per person and £3 per child, or £15 for a family of four and many gave additional donations and bought items in the shop and charity shop on site.
