StreetVet Bristol

Each StreetVet outreach team delivers free accessible veterinary care directly into the community. Outreach clinics are held on the streets, in hostels or other homelessness support facilities. Our teams of volunteers take the practice to the pavement, meeting people and pets where they are. 

Anything that can be done in a consulting room, our volunteer vets and vet nurses can do at an outreach clinic, helping remove barriers to care while building trust and continuity.

At each outreach clinic, teams may provide:

• Full health checks and clinical assessments

• Vaccinations and microchipping

• Preventative treatments, including flea, worm and parasite control

• Diagnosis and treatment of illness or injury

• Dispensing medications and providing follow‑up care

• Blood sampling, urine testing and basic diagnostic procedures

• Sampling and monitoring of lumps or wounds

• Advice, guidance and education to support responsible pet care and ownership

• Provision of daily pet essentials, including food, coats, collars, leads and toys

• This outreach based approach ensures pets receive the care they need, in a trusted environment, supporting the wellbeing of both animals and their owners
