Joining Brian and myself remotely we are delighted to have Rosie Allister, manager of the vetlife helpline. We had planned to catch up following her completing the London Marathon this year and speaking to our students, however she recorded a lecture for our students this year as we all come to terms with the new normal. We speak about how things have been going with vetlife and have there been any noticeable trends for callers with the current pandemic and lockdown. We also speak about her PhD, now that she can tell us more. Lots of great points and food for thought for our profession not only in these current times though beyond. We hope that you enjoy. https://www.vetlife.org.uk If you have any comments about this podcast, please get in touch: email [email protected]; tweet @dombarfield.
