Virtual event will explore the current state of research and practice in animal-assisted interventions.

The Society for Companion Animal Studies (SCAS) has announced that its 2021 virtual conference is now open for registration.

Bringing together expert speaks from the UK and overseas, the event provides a key opportunity for delegates to discover the current state of research and practice in animal-assisted interventions and how they might be more closely integrated. 

Speakers will address three main client groups: children, older people, and those with mental health problems. There will also be a panel discussion chaired by Emeritus Professor Marie-José Enders-Slegers looking at the integration of research and practice.

Milk recalled over presence of veterinary medicines

Graham's Family Dairy has issued a recall for its semi-skimmed milk due to the presence of veterinary medicines in the product.

In a risk statement, the Food Standards Agency said the presence of the medicines, including penicillin, make the milk unsafe to consume and 'may be a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to antibiotics'.

Customers who bought the product are advised to return it to the store of purchase for a full refund.
