NOAH relocates office to Stevenage
The move to Stevenage marks an exciting new chapter in NOAH's history.

The move reflects the organisation's new 'flexible working environment'.

The National Office of Animal Health (NOAH) has relocated its office to Stevenage in a move it says better reflects modern working practices, sustainability commitments and the changing needs of its members.

The move from Enfield after 35 years also marks an exciting new chapter in NOAH's history and places the organisation at the heart of the UK's life sciences and R&D corridor.

NOAH chief executive, Dawn Howard, said: “The NOAH team has been working remotely during lockdown and we want to continue to deliver on the benefits that has brought for our members whilst providing a flexible working environment.

“We look forward to welcoming our members and stakeholders to the new office in the future.”

New form for online veterinary medicines retailers

The Veterinary Medicines Directorate (VMD) has produced a new online form for retailers wishing to sell veterinary medicines on the internet.

The form replace the previous Word version and is part of the VMD's ongoing commitment to digitise its processes. Anyone retailing prescription medicines online, including POM-V, POM-VPS and NFA-VPS categories, is lawfully required to register with the VMD before trading.

The change only applies to new applicants. Retailers already listed on the VMD's Register of Online Retailers or registered under the Accredited Internet Retailer Scheme (AIRS) do not need to do anything.
