Rabbit Welfare Association and Fund (RWAF) and Burgess Pet Care have been working together to deliver rabbit specific CPD for 15 years. The two organisations are offering a day packed full of health, welfare and behaviour. This ‘Essentials’ day is for every non clinical person that works with rabbits and a CPD certificate will be issued to each delegate. This will be held at Birmingham Conference and Events Centre, Birmingham on 1 June 2019.
