Thank you to Katie Lawrence, chair woman of the ASSAVP. This is the Association for the Scientific Study of Veterinary and Animal Physiotherapy.

Katie has asked me to join the association as a committee member. I am proud to have been asked to join and look forward to helping move the profession forward in a highly positive way.

ASSAVP is purely a scientific association to promote the scientific approach to animal welfare. It is a member of the Associate Parliamentary Group for Animal Welfare, and therefore has direct access to MPs, Government Ministers and Peers. Go to their website for more information.
