***Online Anxiety Workshop this week!*** Do you struggle to switch off after work? Do you ever feel anxious? We all do! But if it sometimes feels too much, this workshop will help you to build your own toolbox to keep you at your best. We will look at what's going on in your brain, and apply it to veterinary practice to change your relationship with anxiety and help you to find the right balance for you. #anxiety #cpd #workshop #mentalhealth #veterinary #balance #practicaltools #adhd

It's time! 💫 London Vet Show has arrived. ㅤ We know firsthand how overwhelming conferences can be - and that's why we've designed our sessions to be as accessible and sensory-friendly as possible. 🌟Attendee Briefing Sheets 🌟 Where's the room? What is the layout like? Can I stim? How will the session work? All the answers you need and more on our website (link also in bio): https://lnkd.in/ejQxiJCg 🌟Live Closed Captions (trial) 🌟 We are trialling closed captions in all of our sessions! We want to show that this is a feasible change that conferences can make to improve accessibility for all participants. 🌟Borrow Sensory Aids 🌟 🔴 Struggle with the sensation of lanyards around your neck or swinging as you walk? 💚 Try out a badge reel for your belt or a badge clip to pin the pass to your shirt! 🔴 Finding the noise a little overwhelming? 💚 Borrow a pair of our noise-cancelling headphones! All we ask is you return these by the end of day Friday so they can be reused for other events.

One of the fantastic benefits of being able to present online is that we can expand our reach globally, and we were delighted to be able to speak to the teaching staff of the Jockey Club College of Veterinary Medicine and Life Sciences at City University of Hong Kong today! Daniel Keating-Roberts and Helen Allwood gave the first of two webinars on "The Neurodiverse Classroom - Strategies for Educators". It is so important that veterinary educators engage with the concept of neurodiversity, and especially that we consider it at this early stage of our veterinary journey, and we were so happy to see the participants enthused and engaged and ready to push the boundaries to make their teaching as inclusive as possible. We are really excited for the next generation of students to benefit from their proactive teaching practices! The future is bright! #veterinary #teaching #educators #neurodiversity #ChangeMakers #TheFutureIsBright
