A new journal for the whole practice team
The origins and evolution of Practice Today

Veterinary Practice Today is a new publication borne from Veterinary Management for Today – the journal of the Veterinary Practice Management Association and published by Vision Media.

Following a decade in production, Vision Media decided to evolve Veterinary Management for Today from a journal exclusively for practice managers, to a publication for the whole practice team – Veterinary Practice for Today, shortened to Veterinary Practice Today.

In addition to providing essential information for practice managers, vets and nurses, Veterinary Practice Today seamlessly incorporates print with digital media by existing as the journal of MRCVSonline and VNonline, the news and membership websites reporting daily updates for the profession.

Veterinary Practice Today will be launched at this year's London Vet Show (November 21 – 22) and will continue to grow and evolve. This is an exciting time for the veterinary publishing industry and our MRCVSonline and VNonline members, so watch this space!

RCVS annual renewal fee for vets due

RCVS' annual renewal fee for veterinary surgeons is now due. Vets must pay their renewal fee before Wednesday, 1 April 2026.

This year's standard annual fee has increased to 431 from last year's 418. This is an approximately three per cent increase, as approved by RCVS Council and the Privy Council.

Tshidi Gardner, RCVS treasurer, said: "The small fee increase will be used to help deliver both our everyday activities and our new ambitious Strategic Plan, which includes aims such as achieving new legislation, reviewing the Codes of Professional Conduct and supporting guidance, and continuing to support the professions through activities such as the Mind Matters Initiative, RCVS Academy and career development."

A full breakdown of the new fees is on the RCVS website. Information about tax relief is available on the UK government website.
