Just over a week to make nominations for VN Golden Jubilee Award

Veterinary nurses and veterinary surgeons - you have just over a week to put forward a nomination for the VN Golden Jubilee Award 2015.

The Award is given in recognition of an outstanding contribution to the profession, animal welfare and/or patient care and nominees can be veterinary nurses, veterinary surgeons or lay people.

It was launched in 2011 to celebrate the 50^th anniversary of the first RCVS veterinary nursing training course.

Nomination forms need to be submitted by 5pm on Friday 24 April. The principal nominator must be a registered veterinary nurse or veterinary surgeon although the two supporting proposers can be lay people.

The winner will be chosen by a panel of VN Council members and will receive the accolade at RCVS Day – our Annual General Meeting and Awards Day – on Friday 10 July.
