Some Feedback from the EVS Course of February 2013:

"Thank you ever so much for a truly unique experience. Now I’ve completed the course I’m not sure how I would have applied without it!"

"A great course. Excellent mix of practical hands-on experience and informative lectures; reflective of the varying attributes a vet will need. It gives an honest outlook of what being a vet is really like."

"A great atmosphere with fantastic people. Really useful information on applying to university; it was useful to hear about all the universities from an unbiased point of view."

Some Feedback from the Laura Persey Young Herdsperson Courses of 2012:

"It was very professionally presented by the vets in a friendly and fun way and with a unique balance of technical theory and real hands-on farm practical," he said.

"We are very fortunate to have such high calibre farming courses right here on our doorstep that are highly subsidised, which make it very affordable for those wanting to take part.

"If you want to come away from a course with a smile on your face knowing you have gained some valuable knowledge and skills to make a difference on your farm, then the Laura Persey Trust courses are time well spent and not to be missed."
