Temporary practice closure

We are disappointed to announce that our Axe Valley Vets branch in Blackford will temporarily close for refurbishment on Monday 19th October 2026 . We will be back in touch with a date for reopening.

However, the teams at Axe Valley Vets Cheddar, Wells, Woolavington, Weston and Winscombe would love to welcome you and your pet(s) in the interim. You can expect the same level of expertise and support. They will have full access to our clinical records to ensure continuity of care, and you will continue to receive reminders for appointments and other regular communications as per usual.

If you have a future appointment booked at a team member will be contacting you shortly to rebook this for you.

Staying with Axe Valley Vets means:

Any medical history will be automatically available

Online payment facility will continue

Our systems and services will continue to be available at our Cheddar, Wells, Woolavington, Weston and Winscombe branches meaning you can rest assured there will be no disruption to your pet’s care. This also means your data would continue to be processed by us and our third-party providers to ensure we continue to provide veterinary care. To understand more about how we process your data please see our privacy notice on our website.

We want to take this opportunity to thank you for supporting Axe Valley Vets

Should you have any questions during our closure, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Kind regards,

The team at Axe Valley Vets
