Sore Paws Veterinary Clinic has been backed by NPIF II – Mercia Debt Finance.


The cash has allowed the Newton Aycliffe-based independent operator to move into a 2800sq ft space at the town’s Cobblers Hall shopping centre, which will include five consultation rooms, two operating theatres, a laboratory and x-ray room.


Bosses say the move will be matched by recruitment, with plans in place to increase the firm’s team of vets from four to seven and its nurses from six to nine.
