There are many people to thank for their help with setting up the Mountain Ranges Vet Clinic.
Once the decision was made to set up the clinic, many came out of the woodwork to support us and give their help.
The RSPCA assisted greatly with a very generous donation which funded most of our setup equipment. Their help after the fires was incredible, and their donation was an unexpected but much appreciated gift.
Others turned up on our building days and helped practically with any manner of job.
Mark Millar of MK Millar constructions organised a crew of people who gave their time in great spirit to put together the internal structure of the clinic. The place was transformed from an empty shop space into a vet clinic in no time. No amount of thanks will suffice for this team of helpers.
Thanks goes to...
