We had a #TurtleyAwesome time at The London Vet Show this week, talking turtles, being turtles*, and just generally spreading the word about how much we can all do to help these amazing animals.

It was a huge bonus to have our visiting Ghanaian vets, Dr Asumah and Dr Gyebi, there to talk first-hand about the difficulties turtles and other species are facing in Ghana, and a great way for them to round off what has been a whirlwind two weeks of CPD.

A truly heartfelt thanks goes to the exceptionally welcoming Millpledge Veterinary team, who made us feel totally at home on their stand and did some incredible fundraising for WVI through promotion of their new Natural World Rapz range.

Another huge thank you goes to the ever-supportive VetCT team, for making us welcome visitors on their stand too, and for their fabulous fund-raising initiatives.

But the biggest thank you of all goes to everyone who donated over the two days of the show – you are making a real difference to the health and welfare of some of the planet’s most endangered species.

The London Vet Show brings together all aspects of the veterinary profession, from pharmaceuticals and veterinary publications, to equipment manufacturers and recruitment specialists, all combined with two days of cutting-edge talks and discussions. It's a great opportunity to get tell the wider veterinary community about our work to get veterinary expertise to conservation projects working with endangered species.
