Vet Nurse Online, a CPD provider, has announced the launch of the Vet Nurse Online Volunteering for Animal Welfare Grant, and is now inviting applications from its members who would like to be considered for the £500 grant. 

The company says volunteering to help improve animal welfare can be an amazing opportunity to use veterinary nursing skills in a really valuable way, and it has decided to set up this grant to help support one VN who wants to do volunteer work. 

Any idea will be considered for the grant, from spending some time helping at a local charity to travelling to volunteer with animals abroad. 

For further information, lists of vet nursing volunteer opportunities worldwide, and to request an application form and guidelines for the September 2013 deadline, visit: www.VetNurseOnline.co.uk.
