Apply now for Frank Beattie Travel Scholarship
Deadline for applications is in September

The £2,000 annual Travel Scholarship is now open for applicants. Members of the British Small Animal Veterinary Association (BSAVA) may apply to study a particular aspect of veterinary practice abroad.

The Scholarship has been awarded by Frank Beattie's widow, Annie, each year since 1988. Her husband was a long-standing member of the BSAVA and a well-respected veterinary surgeon, so she established the scholarship as a gift in his memory.

Liz Mullineaux, a previous recipient, said, 'It's a great opportunity, but just needs some imagination and the confidence to apply. Applications are especially encouraged by practitioners.'

For further information e-mail secretary@bsava.com. The deadline is 14 September.

 Veterinary practices are being urged to help owners safely dispose of any unused and expired pet medicines - not just antibiotics - during November's Animal Medicines Amnesty.

Organised by the Responsible Use of Medicines Alliance Companion Animal and Equine (RUMA CA&E), the initative is supported by a range of cross-sector organisations.

Practices are encouraged to use the campaign to engage the whole practice team and raise awareness of the safe disposal of medicines with clients. Learn how your practice can get involved at rumacae.org.uk
