Publications

We keep in touch with veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses through a range of publications, including RCVS News and the annual report (RCVS Review and RCVS Facts).

From time to time we also publish surveys and reports.

All of these can be downloaded for free here – including archive copies from the past five years.
