Don't forget to book for LVS
Delegates urged to book for London Vet Show

The London Vet Show is returning to Olympia this November for two days of high quality CPD, and would-be delegates are encouraged to take advantage of their low rates. 1500 veterinary professionals have already registered for what promises to be a fantastic event.

This year’s show will deliver three streams of clinical CPD programmed by the Royal Veterinary College and led by Jill Maddison. Delegate feedback from last year has also been taken into account and theatres will be significantly larger this year to cater for all the attendees.

The line-up will include business lectures, sponsor-led seminars, practical workshops and association-led education sessions.

Also new for this year will be the introduction of the BVA Careers Fair, following the new partnership between the British Veterinary Association (BVA) and LVS. In addition, BVA members can enjoy a further 10% discount from the registration fee.

The London Vet Show will take place on the 15th and 16th November and will cost just £199 +VAT.

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.
