Inspiring confidence in veterinary care
Our mission is to protect the public interest by ensuring animal health and welfare, and public health, are advanced through thriving, world-class veterinary professionals.
How can we help?
In this episode, we sit down with our new RCVS President, Tim Hutchinson MRCVS. In the chat, we explore his career to date, the path that led him to become RCVS President, and his hopes for his presidential year. For part two of the episode, we’ll be joined by our Head of Insights, Policy and Public Affairs, Ben Myring, to discuss the publication of Defra's recent White Paper, which sets out the government's proposals for new legislation that would replace the Veterinary Surgeons Act 1966.
