BEVA President, Tim Mair, encourages you to take part in the BEVA Says Thanks campaign by sharing your own NHS story. As a thank you we're giving away five copies of the recently published Dear NHS: 100 Stories to Say Thank You, edited by Adam Kay.
BEVA President Tim Mair was inspired to start the BEVA Says Thanks campaign when he saw that Adam Kay was compiling and editing an anthology of the NHS experiences of one hundred inspirational people – including Stephen Fry, Dame Mary Beard, Sir Paul McCartney, Kate Atkinson, Kit de Waal, Bill Bryson and many more – sharing their gratitude to the 1.4 million heroes of our NHS. All profits from the book will go to NHS Charities Together and The Lullaby Trust, which supports parents bereaved of babies and young children.
“We have all seen the amazing work, above and beyond the call of duty, that NHS staff have been doing during the Covid-19 pandemic,” said Tim Mair. “However, it has been costly in terms of the mental and physical health of our NHS colleagues."
"That is why we, as fellow health care professionals, want to show our solidarity and support for the NHS. BEVA represents a relatively small but important segment of the veterinary profession in the UK, and we have committed to raise funds for the NHS Charities Together, which supports and champions the various different NHS charities."
Tim is imploring all veterinary professionals to support the initiative by sharing their own NHS story with BEVA and donating to NHS Charities Together.
The first five submissions we receive will be sent a copy of Dear NHS: 100 Stories to Say Thank You, edited by Adam Kay.
