WellVet returns for 2022
“We have spent the last year creating a fab new website for people to access some of the great content WellVet has created over the last few years" - Liz Barton, Wellvet.
WellVet is returning for 2022 with a new-look website and a series of talks addressing topical post-pandemic issues.
A collaboration with the Vet Mums Facebook community, the talks will be free to members of the veterinary community to join live on Zoom, while being simultaneously streamed onto the Vet Mums Facebook Group. Following the livestream, participants will be able to ask questions to the speakers in an unrecorded, private session.
Liz Barton, co-founder of WellVet and Vet Mums says: “We have spent the last year creating a fab new website for people to access some of the great content WellVet has created over the last few years. However, we also noticed a few challenges mentioned with increasing frequency and severity by Vet Mums members. It’s fantastic to bring together such great speakers to directly address these issues and provide advice and support to anyone affected.”
The sessions, which can be accessed via the WellVet website, are as follows:
July 22nd 12-1 pm, Recognising and dealing with overwhelm – Charlotte Lawson
July 25th 8-9 pm, Loneliness, especially for leaders - Clive Elwood
August 1st 8-9 pm Fitting practical self-care into busy lives – Dr Claire Gillvray
August 4th 12-1 pm Helping flexible workers feel integrated into practice life – Silvia Janska
August 12th 12-1 pm The Impossijuggle of parenting and career - Amanda Boag, Cat Henstridge, Lucy Grieve and Victoria Johnson.
WellVet is a not-for-profit social enterprise founded by vets Liz Barton, Katie Ford, Nat Scroggie and Ru Tipney. United by a passion to improve the wellbeing of veterinary professionals, the team is motivated to make a positive impact on the lives of vets, vet nurses, the wider practice team, and people in veterinary education and industry.
