BEVA has revamped its popular BEVApod channel, based on feedback from members. The fortnightly podcast, which is aimed at keeping members informed and entertained in the car between visits, or when winding down from a busy day, now includes new real-life features and clinical catch-up content as well as the latest news, views and opinions.
Launched two years ago BEVApod has become such a popular information and learning resource that members have been asking for more content. In response BEVA has expanded the channel.
The new BEVApod will include regular features from equine vet Brad Hill, clinical Assistant Professor in Equine Practice at the University of Nottingham, who will be exploring the many aspects of life in equine practice. He will be sharing real life stories to help promote a sense of togetherness and support mental health and wellbeing.
“Although based at Nottingham, I am passionate about maintaining links to all areas of the equine profession,” said Brad. “This podcast will provide a platform to bring the experiences of others directly to the listener wherever they are.”
Brad will be releasing a new episode every other week and has already lined up some compelling equine veterinary participants including Maddy Campbell, Ellen Singer, Graham Duncanson, Jack Wallace and Gemma Kirk.
BEVApod will also host clinical episodes on a monthly basis, taken from the BEVA Clinical Catch-Up recordings.
“These are live webinars where we invite a practitioner to present on a clinical topic and then open it up for an informal discussion,” explained BEVA President Lucy Grieve. “We have turned the recordings of these into podcasts so that our members can listen to the recordings whilst travelling between clients. It makes great use of travel time and fills the void we all sometimes feel when we are alone with just our thoughts in the car.”
Current clinical catch-ups available on BEVApod include a panel discussion with experts on PPE, a discussion on equine obesity with Lucy Grieve and Cathy McGowan and treating and managing liver disease with Sarah Smith.
