About Animal Trust
Animal Trust stands out from other veterinary services.
Firstly, we are a unique Community Interest Company, being the only veterinary CIC in the UK to date.
Our primary focus isn’t solely on maximising profits; instead, we are dedicated to delivering on our mission and ensuring enough profit to sustain our business in the long term.
Our vision is clear: No pet should go untreated or face euthanasia when there is a viable treatment option.
