PDSA

DSA is the UK’s leading veterinary charity. At PDSA, our vision is a society in which no pet is denied veterinary care just because their owner can’t afford it. With 49 PDSA Pet Hospitals, we deliver vital services across the UK, providing more than 2.2 million treatments and helping more than 430,000 pets every year.

PDSA been a lifeline for the owners of sick and injured pets for over 100 years. In that time, we have seen over 20 million pets and provided 118 million treatments.   Our services are run by the dedicated vets and vet nurses at our hospitals and cost more than £80 million a year to provide. PDSA receives no government funding, we are entirely funded by public support; mainly through gifts in wills, donations and our charity shops.

‍Volunteering your time is one of the best ways you can contribute to our life-saving work.

Every year, we treat over 430,000 pets across our 49 Pet Hospitals. Without the support of 2,800 volunteers who kindly donate their time to PDSA, we simply wouldn’t be able to do this.

No matter your skills, background, experience, or the amount of time you can volunteer, we have a volunteering role that is perfect for you. Whether you’re looking for long or short-term opportunities, volunteering is a fantastic way to learn new skills, meet like-minded people, get involved with your local community and support our fantastic cause!
