Vets for NHS CPD event raises over £22,000
The event aimed to provide quality CPD for veterinary professionals.
Crowdfunder provided quality CPD for vets unable to work

The online veterinary CPD event, Vets for NHS, has raised more than £22,000 in online donations.

The day-long event aimed to provide quality CPD for veterinary professionals that are currently unable to work owing to the COVID-19 crisis. The CPD sessions were free, but participants were asked to donate money to help and support frontline NHS workers and their families.

Vets for NHS is a consortium of veterinary surgeons, MSD Animal Health, Nimrod Veterinary Products, and the Vet Fair. The CPD event took place on Thursday (9 April), but you can still help the NHS by visiting the Just Giving Page and making a donation.
