RCVS Day - AGM and Awards Presentation celebrations

RCVS Day – our AGM and Awards Presentation – will take place on Friday 3 July 2009, at One Great George Street, Westminster, London.

Following the same format as last year, the day will begin at 10am with the AGM, and Awards Presentations at 11am. Coffee will be available from 9.30 - 11am, and lunch will be served at 1pm in the Edwardian Great Hall.

As well as recognising our colleagues’ achievements, Professor Sandy Trees will take up his office as RCVS President for 2009-2010, and new members will be welcomed to RCVS Council and the Veterinary Nurses Council.

As Jill Nute’s last official engagement in her term of office as President, she will be welcoming fellow Cornish practitioner Mr Vic Simpson HonFRCVS to give a talk entitled “Wildlife, my life, and some lessons of life”.

Examining a series of wildlife studies that Vic has made during his career, the talk will also highlight some of the factors that can operate against such studies and demonstrate the value of veterinary investigations in the conservation of wildlife, and how this work benefits society.

All Members and listed/registered veterinary nurses are welcome to attend RCVS Day. Further information and venue details can be found online.

To apply for tickets, which are free, please contact Fiona Harcourt on 020 7202 0773 or [email protected] by 19 June.
