Ready, set, go! VMOM returns for 2022
Participants can run, walk, cycle, horse-ride or take part in yoga workouts to raise money for Vetlife.

October marks the third Veterinary Month of Movement campaign, raising funds for Vetlife. 

Vetlife has announced its 2022 Veterinary Month of Movement (VMOM) fundraiser and is calling on members of the veterinary community to join forces, get active and raise money for the charity’s vital work.

Taking place throughout October, challenges can be set independently or with friends and colleagues and can focus on completing a step or distance target, exercising everyday or simply trying out new activities.

Previous entrants took part by running, walking, cycling, horse riding, yoga, HIIT workouts and more! The idea is to get creative with goals and find something that works for the whole team.

Participants are encouraged to set up a Just Giving page, take pictures throughout the month and tag Vetlife on social media. To learn more, visit vetlife.org.uk
