Ever wondered what it’s like to be a vet or fancied a tour of your local veterinary practice to see how they care for sick and injured animals?
Now’s your chance, as Cherrydown Vets, in Cherrydown West, Basildon, is throwing open its doors for a family fun day on Sunday, June 9.
Cherrydown’s Client Care Manager Olivia Noble explained: “It is very important for us to be a real part of the community and have great relations with the people in and around Basildon.
“We’re all looking forward to hosting this fun-filled family day and making it an afternoon for everyone to enjoy.
“There will be a ‘meet and greet’ with exotic animals, a fun dog show and visitors will be able to take a guided tour of the practice – providing there are no emergency case, of course!
“There will also be a pet photographer on hand to snap pictures of people’s pets and there will be paw print castings, too, plus charity stands and raffle prizes.”
