Celebrate 75 years of Bristol Veterinary School with our special anniversary book

16 January 2025

Last year, Bristol Veterinary School celebrated its 75th anniversary.  To celebrate this accomplishment, we’re thrilled to announce the release of a limited edition book that captures the rich history, cherished memories and remarkable achievements of our community over the past 75 years.

This beautifully crafted book is filled with a treasure trove of articles, personal recollections and stories that highlight the life and legacy of Bristol Veterinary School. From the early days of its founding, to its status as a world-leading institution today, the book brings together voices from staff, students and alumni who have shaped the School’s inspiring journey.

Why this book matters?

The 75th anniversary book is more than just a collection of stories—it's a tribute to the dedication, innovation and passion that defines Bristol Veterinary School. It’s a must-read for anyone who has been part of our journey or who simply loves veterinary science and education.

You can own a copy of this special anniversary book by donating to our crowdfunding campaign. Your contribution will directly support veterinary students through Extra-Mural Studies (EMS) placements, helping to fund crucial learning opportunities that prepare them for their future careers.

Veterinary Science student Bex, talks about why this funding is so crucial to students facing financial challenges:

“The additional money provided by the veterinary school has been very helpful and greatly appreciated in absorbing some of the additional costs attributed to EMS such as petrol, particularly in a time where the cost of living has increased so greatly.”
