The GSPCA would like to thank a very kind and brave young lady.

Ailsa Duncan age 10 raised a fantastic £51 through sponsorship after taking a very cold dip in the sea.

As many adults and some youngsters brave the sea on Christmas Day, Ailsa aged 10 took the opportunity to combine a brave act with raising funds to help animals in Guernsey by doing the Polar Bear Swim.
