REASONS FOR WORKING AT THE SPCA (HK)
I have long aspired to pursue a career at a charitable animal hospital, and have completed volunteer placements at multiple animal shelters throughout the United Kingdom and Hong Kong. I am delighted to join the exceptional team at the Society for Cruelty to Animals (Hong Kong). I greatly admire the organisation’s commitment to integrating Western veterinary practices with traditional Chinese veterinary medicine and acupuncture, an approach I firmly believe will deliver enhanced care and long-term benefits for animal patients.
