On the 8th of July 2019 the Vets with Horsepower will stop in Zaragoza to deliver high-quality equine CPD lectures for vets in Spain.
​The aim is to raise funds for four fabulous charity projects in need;

• Saving the Survivors (caring for African poaching victims and helping to stop further poaching)
• the Gambia Horse and Donkey trust (veterinary care and education for those working equids and their owners that need it desperately)
• the Mozambique vet school (educating the future generation of veterinarians)
• Tiny Tickers (infant heart disease charity)

​(Click on their names for more information about the projects we support)

The CPD hours are accredited by the CPD standards office.
Come and join us to follow some interesting lectures and help us raise money for the charities!
