In the middle of Winter on the 4th January a very thin unwell hedgehog was rescued in the grounds at Government House.
The poorly hedgehog which was half his ideal body weight would have likely perished if he hadn’t have been rescued and brought into the GSPCA to care for over the last few months.
The hedgehog which has been called ‘Governor’ has made huge improvements and as he has now reached a healthy release weight.
With only two weeks to go the GSPCA are busy preparing for the sixth Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday.
With a large cruise liner visiting it is set to be a busy day on the 28th May.
We are more than happy if any stalls or buskers would like to join us and if you are interested in supporting our day to celebrate animals in Guernsey please do get in touch.
The GSPCA with like to say a huge thank you to the organisors of the Liberation Day celebrations in St Peter Port and at the Last Post, both were amazing events and a huge congratulations to all of the organisors.
On Tuesday teams of volunteers took stalls to both events and had a wonderful day celebrating and raising funds for the GSPCA.
In St Peter Port the stall was manned by Steve Byrne, Guy Hardill, Joseph Fox, Ellie Fox, Michelle Champion and even 5 month old Dylan Byrne helped raise in excess of £2500 on an extremely busy stall full of games and GSPCA goods on sale.

Yesterday Northern Trust broke a GSPCA record as over 100 of their staff have now helped volunteer since April 2014.
This was a literal ground breaking record as the team of 8 not only took the volunteer numbers from Northern Trust to 106 they also spent the day digging, weeding, planting and laying a disabled access path to our wildlife area and pond with help from the Work to Benefit team and Group Leader Ann Wragg from St Andrews Floral Group.
At the GSPCA we would like to on behalf of Guernsey CIPD share the details of how to nominate for the People Manager of the Year 2017 with only a few days left to vote.
Is there an outstanding influencer in your business? Someone passionate about people development? Someone who naturally impacts and motivates the people and the lives of those around them? If so, tell Guernsey CIPD about them and together they and you can applaud their commitment.
On Thursday 20th and Friday 21st April the wonderful staff from The Travel Corporation joined the team at the GSPCA.
