BVNA Congress Changes Location
Telford International Centre
BVNA will be moving their annual Congress from Kettering to Telford.

The British Veterinary Nursing Association has announced that they are moving their congress to a new venue. In 2012, the annual BVNA Congress will take place at Telford International Centre.

TIC will provide a modern venue with full conference facilities as well as onsite hotels and a range of alternative accommodation within walking distance of the venue.

Angela Mariconda, the Association Manager, commented: "The decision to change the location of a well-established and successful event was not an easy one to make, but TIC offers many advantages over the previous venue, including purpose-built lecture theatres, excellent exhibition space and a wide selection of hotels from budget to luxury."
 
The new venue promises not only be more convenient in terms of location and facilities, but will also enable further growth of the scientific lecture programme and provide greater value for delegates.
 
Further information will be available in January and delegates will be able to register from April 2012.

RCVS members invited to question Council candidates

RCVS members have been invited to submit questions to candidates for this year's RCVS Council election.

With 15 candidates standing for three available positions, vets have been invited to submit a question of their choosing before voting starts. These questions will be collated, with each candidate answering one question of their choice.

It is recommended that members read the candidates' biographies and statements before submitting questions. One question per member can be submitted to vetvote26@rcvs.org.uk before Wednesday, 25 February 2026.

The RCVS Council election is due to start in March.

With only two candidates for two positions on the VN Council, there will be no VN Council elections this year. Meghan Conroy RVN and Lauren Hargrave RVN will begin their three year terms at RCVS' AGM in July.
