In honour of Pets 1st working with Streetvet again this Christmas season, we thought we would share what some of your donations contribute towards. ❄️

This year we are seeking donations in aid of the StreetVet Accredited Hostel Scheme.🐾

Current statistics suggest around 320,000 people are currently experiencing homelessness in the UK and anywhere from 5% to 25% of them are homeless with a pet.

Hostels are an essential part of the UK response to homelessness, providing individuals with a temporary place to stay and helping them to find a way into permanent accommodation. In addition hostels can play a key role in assisting residents with reintegration into society via provision of essential services; such as medical and mental health care, access to support workers, applications for benefits and identity documents and employment skills training.

StreetVet wants to ensure nobody has to choose between their pet and a roof over their heads.

One of the StreetVet charity aims is to protect and foster the human-animal bond in what we recognize is one of its most profound forms, namely that between a long-term companion and an owner experiencing homelessness. We always strive to keep pets and their owners together whenever possible, in recognition of the mutual benefits this brings. We do this by helping owners keep their pets healthy and happy, advocating for pets and their owners, and by helping eliminate barriers which otherwise exclude pet owners from accessing essential services.

This Christmas, Pets 1st are once again working with the award winning charity StreetVet!

This year we are doing the Streetvet shoebox appeal, to help pets and their owners experiencing homelessness.

How to get involved!
Step 1
Collect a shoebox that has a gift tag attached with items that either a homeless person or a pet is in need of.
Step 2
Fill the shoebox with the items that are needed.
Step 3
Bring back to the practice where we will deliver your shoebox over to one of Streetvet’s accredited hostels to be given to those in need!

On behalf of all of us here at Pets 1st and Streetvet, we thank you for your kindness and generosity this festive season! 🎄🖤
