Last year, they treated over 56,000 animals, trained more than 950 vets, raising the standard of care, and they sent 94 aid parcels a month. They mobilise dedicated vets on the ground. You can donate money and medication, fundraise, become an individual member or a veterinary practice member. You can also pair your pet with another animal to help them. You can pair a pet in memory of your pet, too. You can also volunteer, if you’re a vet or a vet nurse or passionate about animal welfare! Find out more about WVS
