A film by Steph Keelan

StreetVet: Never Underestimate the Power of Pets

Inspired by real life, driven by compassion. StreetVet: Never Underestimate the Power of Pets, is a short film that delves into the incredible work of vet Jade Statt and the StreetVet team, a dedicated UK-wide network of volunteer vets, vet nurses and support volunteers who have swapped the practice for the pavements to provide free veterinary care to the pets of those experiencing homelessness.

The film explores the profound bond between humans and animals, showcasing how pets offer companionship, emotional support, and a sense of purpose for their owners.

Follow the journey of StreetVet and how one act of kindness back in 2016, led to a transformative and inspiring community of veterinary professionals helping thousands of animals and their owners receive the essential care they need and deserve, changing lives all over the country.
