Proagrica Animal Health joins NOAH as associate member
"Data and digital products and services are increasingly important for the animal health industry" - Dawn Howard, NOAH.
The firm provides data and digital products for the animal health industry.

The National Office of Animal Health (NOAH) has welcomed Proagrica Animal Health as an associate member.

Proagrica Animal Health provides digital and data products and services to the veterinary, agriculture and animal health industries. With more than 25 years of experience, the company has offices in Portsmouth, Sutton and central London.

NOAH chief executive Dawn Howard commented: “We are delighted to welcome Proagrica Animal Health to NOAH and look forward to working with them. 

"Data and digital products and services are increasingly important for the animal health industry, from the need for greater efficiencies to improve productivity and sustainability, through to the demand for increased traceability of the food we eat." 

She added: “The UK animal health and medicines industry is high-value, high-growth, high-skilled and invaluable to the UK’s fast-developing life sciences sector.”

Richard Sibbit, managing director of Proagrica Animal Health, said: “We have joined NOAH to understand the challenges of the animal health industry so that we can help address some of them.

"We believe NOAH will also provide a great networking opportunity with the aim to raise the visibility of Proagrica and to connect to others within the industry. We are looking to get fully involved and provide a ‘digital voice’ to relevant sub-committees.”

Vets to run marathon for World Animal Protection

 Two recently graduated veterinary surgeons will be running the London Marathon in April to raise money for the charity World Animal Protection.

Alex Bartlett and Maeve O'Neill plan to run the race together if they are given the same start times.

Dr O'Neill said: "You're always limited in what you can do to help animals, so it is nice to raise money for a charity that helps animals around the world."

Dr Bartlett added: "I have never run a marathon before and am excited to run my first one for such a good cause!"

Both Dr Bartlett and Dr O'Neill have fundraising pages online.

BSAVA releases new Guide to Procedures

The British Small Animal Veterinary Association (BSAVA) has published a new edition of its Guide to Procedures for Small Animal Practice.

It has added four new procedures; cystostomy tube placement, endotracheal intubation, point-of-care ultrasound and wet-to-dry dressings.

BSAVA says that it is an essential step-by-step guide to diagnostic and therapeutic procedures performed in practice. The textbook includes new images and illustrations, as well as high-definition videos for use prior to procedures.

Nick Bexfield and Julia Riggs, editors of the new edition, said: "We have built upon the success of the previous editions by responding to the feedback received from the BSAVA readership, and hope this new guide helps to further increase the confidence and accuracy with which these procedures are performed."

Print copies are available in the BSAVA store, with a digital version in the BSAVA library.
