BVA drops prices for Congress
Delegate prices reduced

The British Veterinary Association (BVA) is dramatically cutting the cost of attending its annual Congress this September in order to continue providing high-quality, affordable CPD.

The congress, covering two days, will be almost half the usual delegate fee. Members of the BVA will be charged £150 plus VAT and non-members £300 plus VAT. This gives delegates the change to attend up to 11 hours of small animal CPD provided by the University of Liverpool.

BVA Past President Harvey Locke worked with the University of Liverpool to create the clinical CPD programme. He said: “BVA is committed to providing high-quality CPD to our members at affordable rates. We look forward to welcoming vets to Liverpool in September for our great value CPD programme.”

The choice of topics this year includes:

  • recent advances in the management of elbow dysplasia and cruciate rupture
  • responsible use of medicines
  • how to get the best out of your Ultrasound machine for suspected cardiac disease
  • recent advances in the management of common tumours
  • management of the collapsing patient
  • management of acute gastroenteritis

The full programme and further information is available here.

BVA urges 'continued vigilance' over bluetongue

The British Veterinary Association (BVA) has urged vigilance following a concerning rise in Bluetongue (BTV) cases in sheep and cattle.

In a recent statement, the BVA noted that members are reporting more severe clinical signs and higher mortality rates than in previous years.

'We know that farm vets are working hard to support farmers and animals affected by this outbreak, during what is an extremely difficult time for all involved,' they stated. 'Continued vigilance to identify disease early is vital and vaccination remains the best way of protecting animals from this disease.'
