Organisation hopes the offer will help those wishing to move to the UK.

Central Qualifications (CQ) has dropped registration fees for Ukrainian refugees wishing to enroll one of its veterinary nursing courses.

In a press release, CQ said that it has already donated much-needed items to support people fleeing Ukraine, including medical and veterinary supplies, and hopes the offer will help those who wish to move to the UK.

CQ offers a range of veterinary and animal-related qualifications, delivered through its network of colleges, private training providers and employers. Courses available in the offer include

  • L2 Diploma for Veterinary Nursing Assistants (DipVNA)
  • L3 Diploma in Veterinary Nursing (DipVN) – Small Animal Practice
  • L3 Diploma in Veterinary Nursing (DipVN) – Equine Practice.

CQ operations manager, William Barrow, commented: “Everyone at CQ is appalled by the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and we’re looking to do whatever we can to help those fleeing the situation. We hope our offer of free registrations can help CQ colleges and centres to provide support for Ukrainians moving to the UK.”

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.
