Veterinary NurseCommunity
As members of the local community, we see our role as being educators and advocates of animal welfare. We therefore welcome opportunities to become involved in events where we can help our community learn more about responsible pet ownership and animal health.
Pets in the Park
We are are proud supporters of this nation-wide charity that cares for pets owned by people who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. Their pets play important roles in the provision of companionship and emotional support, and without the efforts of this charity, veterinary care is often out of the owners’ reach. We help by assisting with the charity’s fund-raising activities.
Guide Dogs
Guide Dogs provides assistance to anyone with vision loss, no matter their age or level of vision, to help increase independence, minimise the impact of vision loss and build confidence for further education, employment and social participation. If you would like to join us in supporting this important charity, you can donate via its website or by leaving a donation in the collection tin on our reception desk.
Community Talks
We are available to do talks on a variety on animal health and pet ownership subjects, such as preparing for a new pet, raising puppies and kittens, and senior pet health care. If you are a school or community group that would be interested in our assistance or participation at an event, please get in touch.
