Vetlife

Independent, confidential and free help for everyone in the veterinary community including veterinary nurses and students. Our charity provides a 24/7 phone and email helpline; professional mental health support; financial assistance; information and resources.

If there's something troubling you, please get in touch for support. We won’t judge, or tell you what to do, but will listen and give you time and space to explore a way forward. If you need a referral for specialist help, we can signpost you to options available. Anything you say to us is completely confidential and you don’t have to use your real name.

You can also register to send anonymous emails to Vetlife Helpline. Your email address will be removed so it won’t be visible to anyone at Vetlife – not even the site administrators. Emails are kept on a secure server for 30 days so that if you want to email us again, we can see that you have contacted us before. After 30 days, all emails are automatically deleted for your data security. We reply to emails within 24 hours. In a crisis it is better to phone us so that you can receive support sooner.
