About PDSA
We are the UK’s leading veterinary charity, with 51 Pet Hospitals and over 380 Pet Practices supporting pets and their owner...s throughout the country. Every year our vet team work tirelessly to provide 2.7 million treatments – including 440,000 preventative treatments – helping over 470,000 much-loved pets and bringing peace of mind to 300,000 owners.
PDSA has been a lifeline for sick and injured pets for 97 years. In that time we have provided a staggering 100 million free treatments to more than 20 million pets.
But none of this would be possible without you, our wonderful supporters. It’s thanks to your help that we can carry out this great work, keeping pets healthy and happy. And that’s why there is no other charity comparable to PDSA in terms of the scale and impact we have on animal welfare. We couldn’t do it without you.
We are an approved Duke of Edinburgh Activity Provider. All volunteer roles are subject to an informal interview and trial period. PDSA are happy to reimburse your out of pocket travel expenses in line with our volunteer expenses policy.
