Members in England can now register for an Annual Health and Welfare Review, a DEFRA funded yearly visit from your chosen vet or team of vets. It can be undertaken whenever it works for you and will allow you and your vet to concentrate on your animals’ specific health and welfare priorities.
This is the first step on the Animal Health and Welfare Pathway. Top take part, first register your interest on GOV.UK. This is simple and will take about five minutes. Initially, only BPS (Basic Payment Scheme) eligible farmers will be able to register.
Full guidance on eligibility can be found on GOV.UK, as well as the published guidance for vets on their role in the Review.
Watch DEFRA’s quick demonstration video on how to apply here.
