Nominations are now open for the 2021 and 2022 BSAVA Awards which celebrate exceptional achievements and excellence within the small animal veterinary profession.

Krista Arnold, Chair of the Awards Committee said: “The BSAVA Awards are an important opportunity to recognise the inspiring work of our peers. The Awards Committee cannot make nominations but relies on the BSAVA membership to put names forward for consideration. Why not take a few minutes to talk to your friends and colleagues and submit your online award nominations now. You can nominate more than one person and for more than one award but you cannot nominate yourself.”
If you know someone incredible who has made a real difference to small animal practice, you can nominate them via the BSAVA website. Remember, you must be a BSAVA member to nominate.
