A question about : Wound dressings for animal charities.

A friend recently had minor surgery and was given dressings to use at home. There were more than needed. Presumably hospitals do not take these back. Do animal charities such as the PDSA accept them?.

Best answers:

  • Assuming they are sealed there is a human medical charity who would like them for use overseas. Must have 15 months date or more, be intact and not damaged:

    If not I think I might know of an overseas animal charity which would like them, please pm me as I would need to do some e-mailing!
  • I have sent some dressing to Intercare previously and they were very responsive to their e-mails and very happy to receive it too
