There is a shortage of vets across the country but it is particularly acute in the most rural and remote areas.

VISITORS & LOCALS PLEASE TAKE CARE ON OUR ROADS. The vet has just had to put down a young lamb that had been hit by a car that couldn’t be saved. Lambs and cattle do have right of way on our roads and sometimes decide to run out in front of a vehicle for no apparent reason you can see. As an absolute minimum please let the vet know, even if anonymously, don’t leave an animal to suffer unnecessarily. Thank you.
