Veterinary Pharmacists' Group weekend conference to be held in Stratford

“Opportunity knocks” is the theme of the 2004 weekend conference of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society's Veterinary Pharmacists Group, which is to be held at the riverside Swan's Nest Hotel in Stratford-upon-Avon on 8 and 9 May.

The conference programme will cover a broad range of topics (see Society Meetings, p365) and the weekend includes a coach trip to a local rare breed sanctuary.

The Swan’s Nest Hotel dates from the late 17th century. It is one of the oldest brick houses in the Stratford area and has its own river frontage. It is a few minute’s walk from Shakespeare’s birthplace and other town centre attractions.

The inclusive cost of the full weekend is £225 a person.

Liz Griffiths, the secretary to the Veterinary Pharmacists’ Group, said: “The weekend provides a beautiful and informal setting for those interested in veterinary pharmacy to enjoy the company of like-minded people.”
