Vets and vet nurses invited to pay their respects.

The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) has opened an online Book of Remembrance for members of the veterinary professions to pay their respects to the late Queen Elizabeth II.

Members of the professions have been emailed with details of the online book, with an invitation to leave written messages of condolence and images.

Available to sign until Monday 3 October, the book with then be digitally saved into the RCVS historical archives. 

RCVS president Dr Melissa Donald,
who will be attending the Queen's state funeral on behalf of the College, said: “I, along with my colleagues in the Officer Team and on RCVS and VN Councils, were greatly saddened to learn of the death of Her Majesty the Queen last week. 

“As our Patron and benefactor since her accession to the throne 70 years ago, as a keen supporter of the veterinary professions who had many interactions with its members, and as an animal-lover, we were keen to give veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses the opportunity to leave messages of condolence, anecdotes about meeting Her Majesty, and tributes for her many years of duty and service to this country.”

If you are a veterinary surgeon or veterinary nurse who has not received the original email, contact communications@rcvs.org.uk for details.
