Harrogate-based vets to open new practices as part of £1m investment
A Harrogate veterinary group plans to open three new practices this year as part of a more than £1 million investment.
Harrison Family Vets, which has its headquarters on Rossett Green Lane, was founded in 2021 and currently has seven clinics in Reading, Dudley, Manchester, Middlesbrough, Doncaster, Wigan and Leeds.
The group is now preparing to open new practices during 2025 in Stoke, Sheffield and Darlington, as well as securing sites in Newcastle and Halesowen, which will open in 2026.
Kristie Faulkner, operations director at Harrison Family Vets, said:
In less than four years we’ve opened seven extremely successful practices and quickly established a reputation for being a great place to work. We’ve built a team where everyone’s individual strengths and personality traits contribute to what we do, in a family orientated environment.
A minimum of six new roles will initially be created at each new practice, including clinic directors, veterinary surgeons, registered veterinary nurses and client care coordinators.
At least £350,000 will be invested in each of the new practices, which will all be in modern spacious buildings with state-of-the-art facilities.
Ms Faulkner added:
We’re now looking forward to embarking on our next phase of growth and making our unique offering available to even more veterinary professionals and pet owners throughout the country.
