What does embedding sustainability in veterinary practice actually look like?

In this episode, we're delighted to have Hayley Potter, Senior Practice Director at the Old Golf House Veterinary Practice along side Adam Masri, Veterinary Lecturer at SRUC to help find out!

Earlier this year the Old Golf House Veterinary Practice won the RCVS sustainability award. This first opinion small animal surgery, which serves over ten thousand clients, achieved an ‘outstanding’ ranking in the RCVS’s new environmental accreditation. We hope that Hayley's valuable advice will be instrumental in inspiring us all to make the positive changes needed!
