NEW DIRECTOR OF FUNDRAISING APPOINTED FOR ANIMAL HEALTH TRUST

The Animal Health Trust (AHT) announces the new appointment as it celebrates its 75^th Anniversary

Kevin Clements has been announced as the new Director of Fundraising at the AHT.  Kevin took up his position on 5 June 2017 and will divide his time between the AHT’s Newmarket and London offices. 

Kevin, who previously worked as Director of Fundraising & Marketing, and Deputy CEO, at St Nicholas Hospice Care, joins the AHT in this newly created position to spearhead the charity’s fundraising strategy. 

Kevin said: “I’m looking forward to joining the team at the Animal Health Trust in this, its 75^th anniversary year. To join an organisation that has, since 1942, led the way in preventing disease and injury in animals is very exciting. 

“I look forward to being part of the Trust as it continues to be at the forefront in leading science and care for animals, with the development of new diagnostic tests, new treatments, new vaccines and new understanding of complex diseases.” 

Dr Mark Vaudin, Chief Executive of the AHT, added: “Kevin has joined us at a significant milestone for the Trust.  As an independent charity we receive no government funding and therefore we rely on grants and generous donations from the public. Kevin’s appointment will help ensure we continue to focus on what we do well and, continue to thrive - and grow - for the next 75 years and beyond.”
