The RCVS Student Community Award for Vet Nursing Students

This award recognises veterinary nursing students who have made a real effort to support their fellow students and the wider veterinary nursing school community. It may also reward someone who has contributed to the wider local community within which the academic environment is based.

A wide range of different types of activity could be recognised by the award, for example, a specific initiative that the student has developed; personal support they have given over a sustained period (please do not include personal information about recipients of support that may be confidential); a demonstrable civic awareness in the way they have conducted themselves in student politics; an outreach programme to the local community; contribution to the governance of the student body etc.

This is a new award, with the previous Student Community Award now being split into separate awards for student veterinary nurses and veterinary students.
