StreetVET - Our Charity Partner

 

A number of our team have worked with this fantastic organisation and so we are thrilled that StreetVet has been named as IVC Evidensia UK’s Charity Partner.

 

This charity partnership will initially entail providing fundraising toolkits to practices and the creation of a coordinated charity events calendar, with the aim of raising £100,000 in the first 12 months.

Jade Statt, Clinical Director and co-founder of StreetVet, commented on the announcement:

“We are delighted that IVC Evidensia have not only chosen StreetVet as their charity partner, but also that they have made a commitment to helping pets belonging to those experiencing homelessness across the UK.

“StreetVet is a multi-award-winning veterinary charity that recognises the magnitude and impact of the human animal bond, and wherever possible, aims to protect it. By helping pets, we are helping their owners too, a value shared with IVC Evidensia. We can’t wait to see what the future holds for this exciting partnership."
