Our December 2023 conference attracted double the number of attendees compared with 2022 – a very obvious sign that news of the quality of CPD being offered by FAB Clinicians is spreading. Further evidence of the recognition of the quality of FAB Clinicians’ members’ competencies was the invitation from London Vet Show to return for a second year to provide a morning of three inter-linked presentations. FAB Clinicians were also represented through member presentations at the BSAVA Congress Interest in the work of FAB Clinicians is growing and activity during 2023 on all social media platforms has almost doubled that of 2022. Our veterinary sub-committee continues to develop links that will support the veterinary profession’s understanding of behavioural medicine and as part of that agenda, they have created various information sheets and video resources for the general practice team. They are also spearheading a new initiative to foster even greater collaboration between our vet and non-vet members. Encouraging a growing international community within our fellowship – we have welcomed new members from the Americas, Europe and Australasia, who are independently accredited by the international Veterinary Behaviour Colleges.
