When StreetVet got in touch to ask if we could create a bespoke sympathy card for their team to offer clients, we were incredibly honoured. That they wanted to offer sympathy cards speaks volumes - their compassion doesn’t stop at clinical care for pets but extends to honoring every part of the human–animal bond.
Together, we began exploring how to make the card just right. We adapted the size to fit easily into pockets and chose a sturdier card stock to stand up to all weathers. Sam got creating a few designs so she had a small collection of beautiful options for their team to choose from.
We then got to attend the StreetVet Volunteers Conference, where we finally got to meet the incredible people behind this life-changing charity. After years of email correspondence, meeting co-founder Jade Statt - along with so many of the wider StreetVet team - was a real joy, and made our connection to this compassionate organisation feel even more special. ❤️
At the conference, we shared our new designs in person and chatted to volunteers about the incredible work they do, caring for the pets of some of the most vulnerable people in society. Volunteers were invited to vote for the design they felt they would want to send to their clients — and the one they chose is now being printed and will be distributed to StreetVet teams across the UK.
We’re so pleased that these custom cards are now on their way — ready to offer comfort, care and compassion to those facing the hardest goodbye.
And to our wonderful customers: thank you. Every card you choose helps us do more. 💛
