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.

Animal Medicines Amnesty returns this November

Organised by the Responsible Use of Medicines Alliance Companion Animal and Equine (RUMA CA&E), the initative is supported by a range of cross-sector organisations.

Practices are encouraged to use the campaign to engage the whole practice team and raise awareness of the safe disposal of medicines with clients. Learn how your practice can get involved at rumacae.org.uk

Bluetongue RZ extended across Scotland

The Scottish Government has announced an extension to a Bluetongue Restricted Zone that is in place in south-west Scotland.

From 3 October, the Restricted Zone will be extended to cover the whole of Scotland. The Animal, Plant and Health Agency (APHA) says this is in response to further disease spread, as well as simplify trading conditions ahead of the autumn.

Since the whole country will share a disease status, it will no longer be necessary to have a movement license to move susceptible livestock around the country. Restrictions on germinal products remain.

As of 1 October 2026, there were 1,979 cases of BTV-3 in England, 389 cases in Wales and 40 cases in Scotland.
