The GSPCA are delighted to announce that planning has been approved for a new Wildlife Hospital at the GSPCA.

This includes demolishing a number of very old buildings one of which dates back to the 1940’s.

We now really need your help. We have raised an amazing £300,000 towards the estimated costs for the facility which are approximately £2,000,000 to build the GSPCA Wildlife Hospital and to remove the old buildings.

There are a number of ways you can help donate to this much needed project –
