Veterinary Educational Memorial Programme (EMP)
Losing a pet is challenging. As veterinary professionals, we empathise with you. Our educational memorial programme is your opportunity to contribute to veterinary education.
Just as medical schools use real human bodies to train, your gesture will help us train the vets of the future. Our students will grow into exceptional veterinary professionals, delivering outstanding care to thousands of animals. You'll be directly helping safeguard the health and welfare of animals of the future.
We know that losing a beloved pet is an upsetting experience and that this will be a difficult decision to make. But you can take comfort in knowing that your kind gesture will benefit the next generation of veterinary professionals, who will go on to provide compassionate care to thousands of animals in the future.
You'll be advancing their knowledge of animal anatomy, and help them learn how to better detect and treat the various medical conditions that our pets suffer from. We invite you to consider donating their body to our School of Veterinary Medicine. Please be assured that our veterinary students and clinical staff treat animals with the utmost dignity and respect at all times
Discussing body donation with clients may seem daunting, but offering information for them to make autonomous enquiries is a useful way to start the conversation. Website information and links, leaflets and posters encouraging clients to contact one of our compassionate advisors can help to make owners aware of the lasting impact they can make to the health and welfare of animals in the future, by supporting ethical and compassionate veterinary education.
Your collaboration will help our students to develop into exceptional veterinary professionals and deliver outstanding care to thousands of animals in the near future.
In 2021 we launched our prestigious new School of Veterinary Medicine, focusing on producing practice-ready graduates, committed to advancing animal health and welfare. Our courses are delivered by an experienced team of veterinarians and animal scientists from all over the world, each with a wealth of clinical and research experience.
Developing competent and compassionate veterinary professionals with the skills and aptitudes to succeed as veterinary professionals is at the heart of the UCLan School
of Veterinary Medicine.
Our veterinary students and clinical staff will treat the animals with dignity and respect at all times.
