Charity Motorcycle CPD Tour  
A group of equine vets are currently travelling around the seven British vet schools, to deliver CPD sessions and raise money for charity.

The ten vets will be donning their leathers and getting on their motorcycles to complete the CPD trip in a week.  The trip started in Liverpool on Monday 26 July, and they are now visiting each vet school in the country, ending up in Glasgow on Saturday 31 July.  The vets will deliver broad based Equine CPD at each vet school.  Topics will include: Medicine, Surgery, Orthopaedics, Ophthalmology, Anaesthesia and Wound Care.  There is no charge for delegates to attend but they are being asked to take along a donation for the SPANA Disabled Riding Centre, in Bamako, the capital of Mali in West Africa and the British Equine Veterinary Association (BEVA) Trust.
