A range of lectures and resources for those working, or aspiring to work, in the veterinary nursing profession, will be available at Crufts 2014.
Hosted by the BVNA, the veterinary nurse engagement area will be held in the career zone, offering a range of lectures including "What can you learn from health and safety in a veterinary practice?", which will be presented by Alison Clarke, veterinary nurse and BVNA Congress steward co-ordinator.
Advice, resources and education will also be made available by the BVNA, for the benefit of veterinary nurses, as well as those already working in the field.
In addition, dog legislation officer for the Association of Chief Police Officers, Keith Evans, will provide a unique insight into canine legislation - a vital subject for those working with dogs.
