Guernsey

The Guernsey Together Celebration this Saturday at Saumarez Park Is hosted by Guernsey North Show & Battle of Flowers, The Leo Club of Guernsey and 

On Sunday 100’s of islanders celebrated the end of lockdown for the whole Bailiwick, and the #guernseytogether spirit.

On Sunday there was a FREE family friendly event (with donations to charity) to showcase what an array of fantastic talent and produce we have in Guernsey.

The organisers kindly supported a number of local charities including the GSPCA and it was lovely to see everyone at Government House.

The GSPCA was there with our stall promoting our work and raising much needed funds. An amazing £880 was raised and a lot of fun was had.

This year’s Hel(l)vetia Challenge will be held on 27th August and the GSPCA really need your support by donating to

With less than a month to go the GSPCA are busy preparing for the ninth Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday.

In recent years we have seen just over 100 stalls at our biggest event of the year but with 100 already booked in it looks like it will be the BIGGEST yet.

We would be delighted if any other stalls or buskers would like to join us to help celebrate animals in Guernsey.

Anyone interested in the Strategy for Nature there is currently a display at Beau Sejour and tomorrow between 5pm and 830pm they will also be staff on hand to answer any questions.

Can your team take the trophy off the Plough Inn?

Once again we will be holding a Giant Animal Mascot event as part of our Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday celebrations.

This is open to mascots and individuals prepared to dress as an animal and play a fun football game with a rather over sized ball.    

We are asking businesses, pubs, individuals or anyone as a team of 5 or an individual and we can make extra teams on the day.

Don't worry about what to wear we will provide the Giant Animal Mascot suit and have over 70 available to choose from.

With the recent hot weather the GSPCA has had a number of reports from concerned members of the public that have seen dogs locked in cars, dogs being walked on hot pavements, animals in direct sunlight and we want to remind all pet owners of the real dangers to their pets.

The GSPCA team have already been out to many vehicles and calls this year to reports of dogs locked in cars  in direct sunlight and also to other animals at risk with the warm weather.

The Guernsey Arts Commission are proud to announce that Arts Sunday this year will be going ahead on the revised date of 9th August, that’s this Sunday between 10am and 4pm.

The last few months have been a strange time for the whole Island, but what has emerged from this has been the importance of creativity to bring the community together and spread positivity.

Due to this, they have decided to continue on from the last few months and are happy to announce the theme will be Guernsey Together – A celebration of community and kindness within the Arts.

SAVE THE DATE - Le Friquet's Annual Family Fun Day returns on August 8th 2020!!

This FREE event celebrates the start of Summer in style with a huge range of activities and fun for the whole family to enjoy.
