Story

Based on the outskirts of Cambridge but treating animal patients from throughout the UK (and sometimes beyond!) our Veterinary Hospital runs on a not-for-profit basis. That's where we step in to help fund essential equipment and facilities to ensure the Queen's Veterinary School Hospital is able to provide excellent animal healthcare.

We are now looking to renovate and modernise one of our existing small animal theatres so that our surgical team can offer pioneering new techniques to create a dedicated Small Animal Minimally Invasive operating facility.

So what will be involved and how will this help our patients?  We are looking to install a completely new lighting system and purchase an auto fluorescence HD Camera System alongside an arthroscopy tower. With each surgical advance the aim is to reduce the impact of an operation and to decrease recovery time with all the added benefits that brings.

Our fundraising has already got off to a flying start with an incredibly generous £8,000 donation from the Solent District Dog Training Club and Display Team. Can you help us too? Your gift will greatly benefit our small animal patients for many years to come.   

Don't hesitate to get in touch if you need any further information - we are always happy to help with any questions trust.office@vet.cam.ac.uk.

Thank you!
