About Vets
A vet provides medical care for your pets - vaccinations, health checks, treatment for illness and injury and routine procedures like neutering and microchipping.
Whether you visit a local surgery or have a vet come to your home, finding someone your animals are comfortable with makes every visit easier.
Check they are registered with the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) and ask about out-of-hours emergency cover before you need it.

About Slamannan
Slamannan is a village on the high ground south of Falkirk, sitting at around 200 metres above sea level on the plateau between the Forth and Clyde valleys.
The village grew around coal mining and iron working and the Slamannan Railway, opened in 1840, was one of Scotland's earliest mineral railways, built to carry coal north to the canal system.
Today Slamannan has a quiet, rural character with a main street of stone-built houses, a primary school and a community hall, surrounded by open moorland and farmland.
The elevated position gives the village a bracing, exposed feel quite different from the lowland towns to the north, with wide views over the surrounding countryside.
About Falkirk
(opens in new tab)Falkirk is a council area in the heart of Scotland's central belt, sitting between Edinburgh and Glasgow with the Firth of Forth to the north and the foothills of the Campsie Fells to the west.
The town of Falkirk is the administrative centre, but the area takes in a string of communities with their own identity - Grangemouth with its port and petrochemical industry, the historic burgh of Bo'ness on the Forth shoreline, Denny, Bonnybridge and the villages of the Braes.
Falkirk's history runs deep: two of the most significant battles in the Wars of Independence were fought here and the Antonine Wall - the Roman Empire's north-western frontier - crosses the district as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. That layered history gives the area a sense of substance that newer towns lack.
Modern landmarks like the Falkirk Wheel and the Kelpies draw visitors, but the area's real appeal is practical - affordable housing, strong schools, good local services and a community feel that the bigger cities struggle to match.
Transport links are excellent - the M9 and M876 connect Falkirk to Edinburgh, Glasgow and Stirling and two railway lines serve the area - making it one of the most accessible and affordable parts of the central belt for families and businesses alike.
