Support us
RCVS Knowledge is a charity with a mission to advance the quality of veterinary care for the benefit of animals, the public and society.
We do this by providing veterinary teams with expert knowledge and skills to help them improve the lives of the animals they care for. We offer free tools, resources and education – all backed by the latest evidence.
Whether you’re an animal owner or a veterinary professional, our work matters to you. With your support we can continue working to improve the health and wellbeing of all animals.
Find out more about what we do.
The resources provided by RCVS Knowledge have been amazing as they are so clear and easy to follow. In addition, the team at RCVS Knowledge have been incredibly helpful when I've needed further clarification and advice.
