We are always looking for volunteers to help at the Shelter in a variety of roles.
This Wednesday we are holding our second Volunteer Induction Evening of 2014.
After the last evening having an attendance of 33 new volunteers the GSPCA now has over 300 individuals from around Guernsey helping in the many roles available from dog walking to fund raising.
We have a very special team of individuals here at the GSPCA. Both staff and volunteers work around the clock to help animals in our care and around Guernsey 24 hours a day 7 days a week.
Each quarter we ask for nominations of those that have stood out amongst the team and here are the results for those nominated for Volunteer and Staff Member for Autumn/Winter 2014 -

Last night we held the first of our Volunteer Evenings of 2014 and it turned out to be the busiest we have ever held.
With over 30 new faces learning about the GSPCA and being inducted into how to work safely as a volunteer many laughs were had and serious notes learnt.
Despite a wet windy evening the 30 plus group were very cosy at the Shelter enjoying a hot drink while GSPCA Manager Steve Byrne welcomed them and gave the talk and presentation.
Last night we held our fourth Volunteer Induction Evening where 24 people of all ages came along to find out about volunteering for the GSPCA.
Despite the weather the group of 24 potential new volunteers braved the weather to visit the Shelter to learn about the GSPCA, learnt about the roles available to help in, how to work safely at the GSPCA and were even given some home work to do.
The GSPCA couldn’t carry out saving, rescuing and caring for the thousands of animals that come through the doors every year without the support of the staff and volunteers that work tirelessly every day and night.
To recognise the team for the first time at the GSPCA we have been asking for nominations to recognise the staff and volunteers for their dedication, hard work and outstanding effort.
Nominations were accepted both in house, online and via the post and we received an overwhelming number of wonderful comments for five staff in particular and fifteen volunteers.
Not got a dog or can't bring it down on the 15th September or you have other pets at home then this is your chance to take part in a show without the need to bring them along.
We are asking pet owners to take pictures of their pets and for 50p per entry per class you can enter your cat, rabbit, horse, donkey, stick insect, tortoise, whatever it may be into a virtual pet show..
