On Saturday 13th May 2017 a team of vets and nurses from Damory Veterinary Clinic will be re-creating an average work day at the surgery. In a day we will walk 25 miles along the coastal path of the Jurassic Coast. Just like our work days, it will have its ups and downs, moments of pain, moments of stress, moments of joy -  but with team work we'll make it to the end.

We've decided to support two charities. Firstly, MIND the mental health charity. Mental health is an extreemly important part of the veterinary world and we, as veterinary professionals, always strive to take care of others but sometimes we forget about ourselves! MIND aim to support anyone experiencing mental health issues, which can often be difficult to address as an individual.

Second, we will be raising money for Pets As Therapy. They provide a visiting service in hospitals, hospices, nursing and care homes, special needs schools and various other venues across the UK. These fantastic dogs and cats can provide a wonderful service to people who have perhaps been unable to have their pet with them or who miss a treasured friend from years gone by.

Whilst you are very free to select which charity you donate to, we'd love to see a 50/50 split between the two, so if you notice one is slipping behind the other do please consider topping it up!

Most of all - THANK YOU for any donations as these will not only help your chosen charity - they will spur us on to crack the 25 miles!
