Our President, Jo Oakden says;
“This is the second year of our new BVNA Awards. We had so many fantastic nominations last year, it really was a boost needed in such a tough year. Following last years success, I am so excited to see the nominations for the 4 categories this year.
We don’t get many opportunities to shout about the amazing and inspiring work individuals do, but it makes such a big impact to give that individual recognition.
So please take 5 minutes of your time to have a look at the categories and nominate someone that you feel deserves to be recognised. Let’s shout about how great Veterinary Nurses are.”
