Histórico
The People's Dispensary for Sick Animals is a veterinary charity in the United Kingdom. During World War I, animal welfare pioneer Maria Dickin worked to improve the dreadful state of animal health in the Whitechapel area of London. She wanted to open a clinic where East Enders living in poverty could receive free treatment for their sick and injured animals. Despite widespread scepticism, she opened her free 'dispensary' in a Whitechapel basement on 17 November 1917
