Vétoquinol Are New Sponsors Of Vet Charity Challenge 2013

Two of the teams happy to complete the Vet Charity Challenge in 2012 Vet Charity Challenge is delighted to announce that Vétoquinol has now joined BCF Technology and Kruuse as main sponsors of the event in 2013. Caitrina Harrison, Vétoquinol UK and Ireland Deputy Managing Director commented, “We are absolutely delighted to join the Vet Charity Challenge as one of the main sponsors. We saw how much everyone enjoyed the event last year and how it raised a fantastic amount for the three animal charities. There are a good few of us here who are interested in keeping fit and we are looking forward to entering a few teams ourselves.” The Vet Charity Challenge 2013 will take part on Saturday 28th September at Warwickshire College, Pershore in Worcestershire. The event comprises teams of four taking part in walking/ running, cycling and kayaking along with some orienteering and mental and physical tasks. This event has been designed for every level of fitness and success on the day depends very much on how well each team member works together, rather than physical fitness. Teams can register from 2nd April at www.vetcharitychallenge.co.uk and early registration is recommended, since people who took part last year are keen to do so again this year. For example, Head Nurse, Angella McNellan from Glenbrae Veterinary Clinic in Bearsden, Glasgow said after the event in 2012, “The Vet Charity Challenge has been brilliant fun, beautiful scenery, great challenges. It has really helped get fitter through training as a team after work during the summer. We cannot wait to do it all again next year.” The Vet Charity Challenge raised £21,000 for three animal charities last year. The event aims to raise money in 2013 for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People, SPANA and Animals Asia.
