Good-day, Dominic Barfield here, and this is the RVC clinical podcast.

Thank you for listening and thank you for subscribing on a smartphone or generic fruit-based

device.

Really grateful for you taking the time to download and listen to this, obviously, podcast, and

you don't ask for much in return, but be grateful if you could pop to Apple podcast, A-Cast, Spotify,

and leave us a review.

Obviously, a five-star review would be great, but we really appreciate a couple of minutes of your time to be able to do that.

So joining us today in our remote studio, we've got Dr. Rosie Alistair, who part of vet life and Rosie has sort of been joined us on a couple of podcasts before, I think.

And she's recently received the British Veterinary Association Charon Award in the Royal

Veterinary College Surgeons Impact Award for work in the veterinary mental health and

manages vet life helpline, which is a 24-hour support service for everyone in the UK and

the veterinary community.

A research is based at the University of Edinburgh looks into veterinary mental health,

well-being at work, and veterinary suicide prevention. And she's written and spoken extensively

about veterinary mental health in the UK and internationally. In fact, I've met somebody

from the AVMC who commented very highly on Rosie at Alistair recently. She was one in the table

for 19 years

and vices on a number of national organisations

on mental health, professional identities, suicide prevention and self-harm.

So thank you very much, Rosie, for joining us.

Not exactly the thing that we wanted to do today,

but even better for me and hopefully all the listeners.
