Vet Challenge set to raise £20,000
Charity event a big success

The Vet Charity Challenge took place last Saturday (15 September) at the Royal Agricultural College, Cirencester.

The event was organised in order to raise money for numerous animal welfare charities, including SPANA, Hounds for Heroes and Pet Blood Bank. Those that took part said the challenge was also an excellent team-building exercise.

Twenty-six teams of four took part in the event, which included a seven-hour walk, running, cycling, kayaking and orienteering, alongside other mental and physical challenges.

Gavin Mitchell, who works for one of the event's sponsors, said: "We hope to raise over £20,000 for some great causes. Speaking to a number of teams during the event, they had already raised well over their targets."

The winning team was the Complete Animal from Hyde Park Veterinary Centre, London
(pictured). Team Captain Leah Morley said: "The event was great fun. I think every practice should take part and we look forward to returning next year to defend our title."
