With little over a week to go to the BIGGEST day in the GSPCA calendar we are calling on volunteers and those with lorries, vans or vehicles that can help with transport for our BIG day.
With nearly 100 stalls and much to see and do the GSPCA is buzzing with activity for the 8th Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday taking place on the 26th May and the first of the Guernsey 2019 season.
Steve Byrne GSPCA Manager said “It is an extremely busy time for us in the run u to our eight Animal welfare Seafront Sunday which takes place on the 26th May and we are appealing for volunteers and those that can help transport what we need there and back.”
“The Animal Welfare Seafront Sunday is always an incredible and wonderful day celebrating animals in Guernsey and we have so much planned once again.”
“From animals looking for homes to displays on the problems with pollution and plastics, fun and games to the dog show and Animal Mascot 5-a-side, not to mention all the stalls and charities joining us this is without doubt a huge highlight in our GSPCA calendar.”
“For anyone that can help or would like to get involved please call us on 01481 257261 or email stevejbyrne@gspca.org.gg .”
“We especially would love to hear from those with large vans or lorries that we can load up what we need in the days prior to the Sunday and then to take what we need on the day from 7am and bring it all back between 4pm and 6pm, so please do get in touch if you can help.”

Guernsey Sands Befrienders
SANDS Guernsey
Are you interested in becoming a Guernsey Sands Befriender and playing a vital role in offering support to bereaved families on Guernsey?
Many of us know first hand how much comfort and support a Befriender can give. The reassurance of talking to someone else who has been affected by the death of a baby and who is nearby to phone or to meet is invaluable.
However, befriending is an emotionally demanding role so at least one year should have elapsed since your own baby's death.
If you are interested in finding out more about becoming a befriender and the training involved, please contact guernseysandsbefrienders@gmail.com or call our dedicated mobile 07781 103435.
More information can also be found on the Sands website - https://www.sands.org.uk/get-involved/volunteer-sands/become-befriender

The Committee for Home Affairs is looking for people to act as members on the following Independent Panels:
* The Independent Monitoring Panel, at Guernsey Prison
* The Independent Custody Visitors

The Independent Monitoring Panel monitors conditions in the Prison to ensure proper standards of care and decency are maintained. Amongst other things members are expected to visit the Prison on a regular basis to observe, comment and report on the conditions, to make enquiries into matters raised by prisoners and to attend bi-monthly Panel meetings.
The Independent Custody Visitors are responsible for making unannounced visits to law enforcement custody facilities to observe, comment and report on the conditions of detention, the operation of the custody facilities and to ensure compliance under the relevant legislation. They ensure transparency and independent scrutiny of the detention process.

Commissioners are responsible for overseeing the investigation of complaints to ensure that all complaints/appeals are processed fairly and objectively and in compliance of relevant legislation.
They are seeking individuals from a wide range of backgrounds, and are keen to appoint diverse individuals reflective of the local community. Successful applicants will be required to undertake an enhanced police check prior to appointment. Full training will be provided.
Anybody who is interested in either role or who wants to find out more information should contact Emily Grainger on 717359 or via email at homeaffairs@gov.gg
