Ben Howitt
BVA Young Vet Of The Year Finalist
After being brought up in Singapore, Ben returned to the UK to study at the University of Bristol. Upon his graduation, Ben worked for 2 years in a mixed private practice and with the GSPCA on the island of Guernsey, before moving out to the Galapagos Islands to manage a charitable veterinary clinic. Upon his return to the UK, he set up his own foundation ‘Pan Animalia’ to return to the islands to open up a new veterinary clinic that focuses on community engagement, conservation, and veterinary student training. Ben has since joined the Worldwide Veterinary Service (WVS) to continue that mission and help develop projects that support communities and animals in some of the world’s most remote locations.
