VwHP webinars recorded in Italy 2025

In July 2025 the Vets with Horsepower team visited 4 locations in Italy to deliver a set of lectures at each stop, in order to raise money for five fabulous charities. Please find more information about the charities on www.vetswithhorsepower.com/2025


The funds raised have already been distributed to the charities for 2025, but any further donations will go to the charities we support in 2026.
