Young vet network

YVN Rep vacancies

Become a volunteer at BVA

The BVA’s Young Vet Network (YVN) was introduced as a network to support veterinary students through their graduation and help to address the feelings of isolation and vulnerability that many graduates experience on entering practice.

The main activity within the YVN is organising local gatherings or meetings that are focused around new and recent graduates (up to 8 years after graduation). We aim for this network to provide the opportunity for face-to-face engagement at a local level and the chance to attend an enjoyable educational event or social get-together, surrounded by peers and friends.
