Extra places have been added this year following the outstanding success of the first camp last year, and more than half have already been snapped up. 

 

So don’t delay if you want to be in with a chance of securing your spot. The application form is here and remember, the deadline is Wednesday 30th April. 

 

An unforgettable experience

 

Last year’s camp was an overwhelming success, with participants describing it as “life-changing” and “the best experience of their lives.” It’s been exciting to see students from Vet Camp 2024 being accepted on university courses this year.

 

With challenges, games, practical workshops and interactive training sessions, every moment at camp is packed with learning, inspiration, and fun. 

 

You’ll have the opportunity to shadow professionals, develop essential skills not just for life as a vet, but for life itself. And you’ll gain insights into the world of veterinary medicine that simply can’t be found in textbooks.

 

If you’re serious about pursuing a career as a vet or vet nurse, this is the perfect opportunity to boost your knowledge, build confidence, and strengthen your chance of getting into university.
