the people's dispensary for sick animals
Activities & Mission
Founded in 1917, PDSA is the UK's leading veterinary charity. Our mission is to improve the life of every pet. We prevent illness, suffering and unnecessary death of pets; educate people about their welfare needs, and treat pets needing our help across the UK. In 2018 we provided 2.5 million treatments to more than 430,000 pets. Our services are funded entirely by public support.
