BVNA Congress – Early Bird Tickets
BVNA Congress will be held between the 8th and 10th October this year and delegates can register before July 31st to benefit from the early bird rates on offer.

The British Veterinary Nursing Association (BVNA) Annual Congress is pleased to announce, new for 2010, a four tiered lecture programme running on all three days of the event. The additional lecture stream will provide delegates with more choice and great value for money, with leading speakers offering high quality CPD.  Delegates will also be able to visit the commercial exhibition earlier on the Friday, as the opening time has been brought forward, allowing delegates more time to browse around the exhibition hall and a chance to enter some fantastic competitions.

The Congress registration document is now available and has price options to suit everyone’s pocket.  There are a number of group discounts available plus an early bird rate.  Visit the BVNA website or contact the BVNA office team on 01279 408644 for more information.

BVA urges 'continued vigilance' over bluetongue

The British Veterinary Association (BVA) has urged vigilance following a concerning rise in Bluetongue (BTV) cases in sheep and cattle.

In a recent statement, the BVA noted that members are reporting more severe clinical signs and higher mortality rates than in previous years.

'We know that farm vets are working hard to support farmers and animals affected by this outbreak, during what is an extremely difficult time for all involved,' they stated. 'Continued vigilance to identify disease early is vital and vaccination remains the best way of protecting animals from this disease.'
