Nominations open for 2025 BSAVA Awards
The winners will be announced in January 2025.
Both members and non-members can make nominations.

The British Small Animal Veterinary Association (BSAVA) has opened nominations for the 2025 BSAVA Awards.

The awards, which have been running since 1961, celebrate 'unsung heroes' in the veterinary profession who have made significant contributions to veterinary science, research, clinical practice, education, and small animal welfare.

The eight categories are:
  • The Bourgelat Award - for an outstanding international contribution to small animal practice or science
  • The Simon Award - for contributing to the advancement of small animal surgery
  • The Woodrow Award - for significant contributions to advancing small animal medicine
  • The Amoroso Award - for contributions to teaching small animal studies to undergraduates
  • The Blaine Award - for contributions to advancing non‑client-facing small animal veterinary medicine
  • The Bruce Vivash Jones Veterinary Nurse Award - for outstanding contributions to advancing small animal veterinary nursing
  • The Ray Butcher Award - for a non-veterinary ‘unsung hero’ who had made a significant contribution to animal welfare in the community
  • The J.A. Wight Memorial Award - for a veterinary surgeon who has made an outstanding contribution to the welfare of companion animals.

Nominations are open until 30 October 2024. Both BSAVA members and non-members can make nominations.

The winners will be revealed on 16 January 2025 and the awards will be presented at BSAVA Congress and Expo 2025, which is being held in Manchester from 20-22 March.

Adam Gow, BSAVA honorary secretary, said: “It’s a real honour each year to celebrate those who have made a significant difference within our profession.

“We encourage everyone to make a nomination of as many colleagues and peers as possible, this is our way of saying thank you.”

Nominations can be made here.
