As
an organisation, our goal is simple. Improve animal welfare around the world. Anyone can volunteer with us, you do not need to be a vet or vet student, although many of our courses are very popular with such applicants.
We offer a
multi-modal approach to assisting animals, including:
- Running
volunteer opportunities for you to help or study abroad.
- Sponsoring
vets to visit areas needing support.
- Providing
medications and surgical equipment
- Training
local vets and technicians.
By
volunteering with us you will gain hands on experience with animals, learn new
skills and give something back. For those considering a career in medicine or
nursing, this is a great way to understand more about the career path and see
if it is right for you. It provides industry relevant experience and is a
wonderful addition to your CV, making you stand out when you apply to your
chosen college or university. Those already studying animal and medical courses
can gain credits and count their trip as work experience (including EMS or CEMS).
Most importantly you can learn a huge range of new concepts and develop your
skills and confidence in a friendly and encouraging environment.
Worldwide Vets is registered in the UK, with our administrative head office close to London, England. The real hub of our work is much further away, with vet clinics and conservation projects in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zanzibar, Ghana, Thailand, India, Cambodia, Peru, and Costa Rica, to name just a few. We welcome volunteers to join our mission and contribute to the role we play. Doing so is a great way to give something back to the world around you, saving innocent lives, alleviating poverty and playing your part in sustaining the natural and cultural planet we know today.
