Introduction
Studies have shown that veterinarians are experiencing alarming levels of stress, leading to burnout and impacting the work they provide to our beloved animal friends.
Our goal is to empower veterinary workplaces to create environments where every team member feels valued, respected, and supported. Veterinary workplaces across Europe can apply for vouchers for mental well-being coaching!
In 2024, we supported 19 veterinary workplaces with coaching vouchers across Europe with great success, especially in terms of communication! For more information about last year results, check our full 2024 evaluation report or our poster.
Join us in creating a brighter future where every member thrives. Let’s build a profession that prioritises well-being and inclusivity for all!
