A message to our learning community After much consideration, we’ve made the decision to close the Improve Veterinary Practice platform on 13 January 2026. Improve Veterinary Practice was built to support vets and nurses at every stage of their career, and while this chapter is ending, a new one is starting at Improve Veterinary Education. We couldn’t be more grateful for the community you’ve helped us build and hope to see you on this exciting next step. Find out more

New president of the RCVS

1 min read

DR Jerry Davies was installed as president of the Royal College for 201112 at RCVS Day in London last month.

He is shown above (right) with the outgoing president (now senior vicepresident) Peter Jinman and the new junior vice-president Jacqui Molyneux.

Among the presentations on the day was the inaugural Golden Jubilee Award for an exceptional contribution to veterinary nursing. This went to Jean Turner, shown with husband Trevor and daughter Sally.

Mrs Turner qualified as a veterinary nurse in 1971; Trevor qualified at the RVC in 1958 and Sally graduated from Cambridge in 1991.
