BEVA Congress to 'make up' for missed socialising last year
Early bird tickets for BEVA Congress are available now until 16 August 2021.
'No better way' for BEVA to enjoy the 60th anniversary than face-to-face.

BEVA has released details of its upcoming Congress, confirming that it will go ahead in-person, rather than virtually.

The Congress will be held at the ICC in Birmingham from 5 to 7 September 2021, and will be held in a COVID-safe manner, with careful adherence to the Association's COVID safety measures.

Lucy Grieve, BEVA president, commented on the occasion: “We missed out last year, so we are going to properly make up for it at Congress this year, with socialising as well as pure learning on the agenda,

“We are also introducing a new format and exploring exciting new ideas with a plethora of high-quality online content, which should stop rotas getting in the way and allow everyone to enjoy and benefit from the event in one way or another.”

The focus of the 2021 Congress is celebrating 60 years of teamwork within the profession, and BEVA feels that there is no better way to celebrate this than with face-to-face interaction, allowing for networking and catching up with friends and colleagues. 

Available here, the full programme for the event includes the 13th International Equine Colic Symposium, and a line up of renowned speakers from both the UK and worldwide.
