How We Help
The Ruby Goodhew Foundation is dedicated to supporting student veterinary nurses during their education which can be financially, physically and emotionally challenging.
How We Help
The Ruby Goodhew Foundation was founded in July 2024, nine months after Ruby’s death. All those working for The Ruby Goodhew Foundation knew Ruby personally or professionally, and all wish to see her name live on connected to the Veterinary Industry and not her illness.
The Ruby Goodhew Foundation understands the hardship Student Veterinary Nurses face during their studies. Often, SVNs are on a low income and have a busy time juggling studying, working, social life and family life. Inevitably when a career requires dedication and a high level of emotional attachment it can be difficult to ask for help when needed.
Our aim is to support SVNs by taking on some of the financial burdens they face, so they can focus on being the best nurse they can be.
The trustees meet regularly to ensure The Ruby Goodhew Foundation is the best it can be and to ensure it can support and help meet the needs of trainee veterinary nurses who may have encountered financial hardship or difficulty whist in training.
With your donations we can continue to provide help and support to student veterinary nurses, allowing them to focus on being the best nurse they can be.
