The GSPCA would like to say a huge thanks to volunteer Karen Brozka for making cards and selling them to raise funds for our animal welfare work and the many animals in our care during lockdown.

Karen said “Hope you are well and managing to get through this challenging time.”

“As Baxter (my goldie) and I have not been able to go out and rattle the tin for you lately, I decided to do a little fund raising.”

“Not much, £100, but hopefully this will help towards hedgehog meals or a few runs at food etc.”
