Animals Shelter chairman Nicholas Blampied says the café will help to raise much-needed funds

ISLANDERS looking to adopt an abandoned animal will soon be able to think about their decision over a cup of tea.

Plans to demolish the old single storey section of the JSPCA Animals Shelter in St Saviour’s Road so a three storey building with café can be built were approved by the Planning applications panel this week.

Animals Shelter chief executive Stephen Coleman said that the current building was ‘well past its sell-by-date’.

‘We need to maximise the return of the monies we have generated,’ he told the Planning panel. ‘We see the café as a major means of fundraising.’

Yet another example of dis-jointed thinking, where will these customers park assuming they will want to use a cafe situated on the outskirts of town?!?!?

There is a fair sized car park in the grounds there, Mogit.
