Sustainability

Sustainability isn’t just something we feel is right, it has to become a new way of life

We are committed to ensuring wherever possible to source responsibly, reduce the amount of waste we send to landfill, monitor our energy usage and reduce our carbon footprint year on year.

ecology

We are a climate positive workforce and are proud to partner with Ecologi in reducing our carbon footprint.

We’re doing our own bit to fight climate change and think smarter in the ways we work as a veterinary practice.

We offset each member of our team’s CO2 output every month and are looking at ways that you, our clients can get involved.

We are proud to be part of the Wimborne Business Improvement District (BID) – Sam Devlin, Head of People was appointed a Director of the BID in June 2021 and voted Vice-Chair for the 2022/23, 2023/24 term.  We’re passionate about supporting other local independent businesses. Where possible, we will always seek to partner with local businesses.

At Vetsmiths we love being part of the Wimborne community and look forward to becoming involved in local projects and charity events.

The local small businesses we have had the pleasure of partnering with are included below. We always seek to support independent local businesses where we can and perhaps you might be able to too.
