I too have struggled in the past with finding awareness dates/months. I did come across this website https://www.avma.org/events/pethealth/pages/default.aspx , if I find one that is relevant to our company I Google the one(s) of interest, just to make sure it is an annual event, applicable to the UK etc..

It would be helpful for a dedicated UK based website or pinned page on the forum, if anyone has the time to do it

Yes I have already seen it and taking full advantage this afternoon while I'm covering reception. Thanks for all that information!

Charlotte - I knew I remembered there being a thread about this when I replied to someone else this morning. In case you didn't see it, a list of awareness events from 2014 (which are likely to run again):

[quote user="Charlotte Craven"]To try and get some inspiration I was going to look at all the veterinary awareness months in the year[/quote]

Good idea.

[quote user="Charlotte Craven"]but they are nowhere to be found![/quote]

As far as I know, there is no definitive website (I used to look for one when I was organising Flea Awareness Week for Novartis, and never found one).

Maybe it would be useful for me to publish something like that on this site. I'd just contact the main pharmaceutical companies (who are usually behind awareness weeks), and get the details from them.

Hi Charlotte

I'm not sure if there is one place to find out this information. However, BVNA's National VN Awareness Month will be in May 2015. More information will be posted on our website early in 2015!
