RCVS publishes report of 2017’s achievements

We have published our Annual Report and Financial Statements for 2017, itemising our major achievements over the course of the year as well as the allocation of funds.

Some of the work highlighted includes Brexit-related research and lobbying, the launch of a new innovation hub, Vivet, two new RCVS awards (Impact and Inspiration), a Schedule 3 consultation, updates to the Practice Standards Scheme, the pilot of a new reflective approach to continuing professional development (CPD), changes to the Veterinary Nurses Council, and refreshing the College website. It also covers many of the College’s ongoing projects, including Vet and VN Futures progress and the growth of the Mind Matters Initiative for mental health.

In addition, the Report gives an overview of the College’s independently-audited finances with details of income and expenditure. These have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice – a framework for charity accounting and reporting.

The Report will be presented for adoption by members of the College at this year’s RCVS Day – the College’s Annual General Meeting and Awards Ceremony – on Friday 13 July at the Royal Institute of British Architects.
