BEST BOOT FORWARD…MIGHTY TEAM EFFORT FOR MIGHTY HIKE

Eight members of our team are training hard for a mighty charity effort in the summer as they look to tackle a full marathon across hilly terrain.

Our dedicated team are taking part in the Lake District Mighty Hike to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Support.

The trek, which goes through the stunning National Park from Dalemain Mansion taking in amazing views across Ullswater Lake, takes place on Saturday, June 17.

Beth Backhouse, a Veterinary Nurse here at Kentdale who one of those putting their best foot forward, said: “This year, Team Kentdale are taking on the mighty hike for Macmillan Cancer Support. While the views will be spectacular, we’ll be concentrating our efforts on getting to the finish line and raising as much money as we can for this worthy cause.

We decided to support Macmillan because it's a charity close to the team's heart and we've heard about all the amazing work the charity does for people and families suffering with cancer.”

Macmillan Cancer Support provides specialist health care, information and financial support to those people affected by cancer.

Those wishing to support Beth as part of Team Kentdale on the Mighty Hike can make a donation at her JustGiving page.

Testimonials

  • There’s never a problem speaking to our lovely receptionists at Kentdale Vets to book an appointment; my little girl would not be with us now without Jan, her surgeon and the brilliant nurses that looked after her.

    Stephen – Nancy’s owner

  • If I could give a higher score, I would! This being our second referral, it has felt like coming home, and to feel that when we arrive with major trauma to our dog is wonderful. Immediately we were in smiley, reassuring, safe arms again, and our crisis rapidly disappeared. The immediate welcome from the reception staff to Kirstie, amazing Joe and even the reassuring and friendly night nursing staff all let us know our precious boy was in very safe hands. Can't speak highly enough - and this is a consistent standard.

    Ani – Floyd’s owner

  • Great communication between myself and the staff was kept updated, and they took great care of my dog! The operation went perfectly, and the scar has healed nicely, considering its place! Gave simple and easy-to-follow after-care steps!

    Kim – Bella’s owner

  • Felt my dog was safe with you, and treatment would be done with his best interests coming first. Follow-up physio with Genie and now Emma were excellent. Friendly staff.

  • I cannot say how amazing Kentdale is; your exceptional service and kindness. Thank you.

    Victoria – Lulu’s owner

  • All the staff go out of their way to be helpful. Nothing is too much trouble, and no question is considered stupid or a waste of time. They treat my dog, Riley, with respect and kindness and me the same. I can’t thank them enough for their help on what has been a rough road for Riley and us.

    Pat – Riley’s owner

  • Excellent doggy care. Nothing too much trouble, and the team all look happy in their jobs. Simon was great with us, and Henry kept us informed and gave clear explanations. Definitely would recommend it.

    Alison – Henry’s owner

  • Full confidence in the skills, equipment and expertise of the whole team. Assured by the staffing levels to respond to unplanned events during procedures and recovery. Across the team, the ability to explain and advise.

    Graham – Winston’s owner
