Tomorrow at 2pm at the GSPCA we have a Volunteer Induction Afternoon.

We have arranged additional inductions to help those off for the summer and looking to help animals in Guernsey get involved at the GSPCA.

To volunteer on site with the animals you must be over 14 years of age, but we are always looking for volunteers to help with fund raising of all ages.

You are welcome to attend the induction if you are under 14 with permission of your parent or guardian.

At the GSPCA we hold Volunteer Induction Evenings every 6 to 8 weeks but with the Summer upon us and many willing volunteers over 14 wanting to help at the Shelter and those under 14 able to help at the many fund raisers we are at we held an afternoon induction session yesterday where we greeted 11 new volunteers to the team.

We really couldn't achieve all of the fantastic work we carry out at the GSPCA without the wonderful volunteer team we have at the GSPCA and we really do appreciate each and every one.

Around the clock volunteers in Guernsey are helping animals whether at the GSPCA or other animal charities.

Every single night of the year a volunteer helps ensure that at the GSPCA we can provide around the clock emergency cover.

The volunteers that make up this fantastic group come from all walks of the community and help ensure every night between 6pm until 8am the next someone can go out to rescue an animal in need.

Matt Hill-Smith and Jen Bradshaw are two of our volunteer wardens and help cover on average two nights a week.
