Get to Know CAMVET - University of Cambridge Veterinary School Trust


 

CAMVET’s aim is to fund essential equipment and facilities for the Queen's Veterinary School Hospital, so every animal can receive the care they need when they are referred to the hospital. As the hospital runs on a non-for profit basis, this small charity is a crucial part of ensuring that facilities are available so more complicated cases can be resolved. The charity is also responsible for providing equipment to vet students as well as providing additional support to Clinical Training Scholar posts. Your donation and support is crucial for the charity, hospital, future vets as well as all the beloved pets in need of urgent care.
