Are you an experienced RVN looking for a change? Do you seek a role that enables you to utilise your nursing skills and make a difference? Shrewsbury Animal Trust is currently seeking a nurse who shares our mission of making veterinary care more accessible and affordable.

Shrewsbury Hospital is a 24-hour facility committed to providing exceptional care to our patients. With dedicated staff managing both incoming cases and inpatients, we offer two theatre suites (one for advanced surgeries), a dental suite, and separate wards for dogs and cats, highlighting our commitment to feline-friendly care.

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. We firmly believe that pet ownership should be accessible to all, acknowledging that individuals earning the Real Living Wage may encounter challenges in affording veterinary care when their pet falls ill. In response, we aim to assist. Our free consultations and transparent pricing enable our vets and nurses to break down the barriers that stand in the way of pets receiving the treatment they need.
