HRH The Princess Royal opens veterinary education centre
Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal officially opened the new £8.6M facility.
Centre will serve students and staff of the Harper & Keele Veterinary School.

Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal paid a visit to Harper Adams University’s Shropshire campus on Tuesday (29 June) to officially open its new Veterinary Education Centre.

HRH Princess Royal, who is Chancellor of the university, received a tour of the £8.6M facility, which will serve students and staff of the Harper & Keele Veterinary School and Harper Adams University. Among its facilities include lecture theatres, learning spaces, clinical skills environments and general teaching rooms. 

Her Royal Highness was shown a range of displays and practical demonstrations, including a virtual dissection and a veterinary medicine clinical skills session. She also met the trustees of the Kildare Charitable Trust, which provided one of the centres two large lecture theatres.

“We were delighted to be able to welcome Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal back to Harper Adams to officially open the Veterinary Education Centre,” commented Dr David Llewellyn, vice-chancellor of the university. 

“This is a major new facility for the University and will not only support the education of those entering a variety of veterinary professions but will also enable us, through the work of the Vet School, to ensure that future generations of veterinary surgeons are able to train alongside those seeking a career in the agri-food industry” he added. 

“We need excellent people in both fields, with a thorough understanding of the issues that impact on animal health and welfare that they will have to address when pursuing their future careers.”
