Lizzie Lockett, CEO of RCVS, talks to Kat Hart about growing up on a farm with an ambition to be a vet, and then changing her mind while seeing practice after seeing the emotionally challenging reality. A career in journalism and PR led her to a comms role at the RCVS, and back into a profession she has huge admiration for. She gives us an understanding of the role of the Royal College as a ‘compassionate regulator’ - setting standards and helping our profession to develop and progress.  Music Fireflies and Stardust by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3758-fireflies-and-stardust License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
