Resquip supports BARTA attending EVECC Congress

We would like to thank Adam Mugford, Executive Director EVECC Congress and longtime supporter and our veterinary small animal lead. Whose help has enabled us to have a free stand and display space at the European Veterinary and Emergency Critical Care Congress in Edinburgh this year.

Neil and Teri from BARTA were on the stand for the four days, which proved incredibly useful and gave a great insight into a side of veterinary care we are less familiar with. Small animal vets are not our traditional target audience, however with developments around Pre-veterinary Immediate Emergency Care in UK Fire Services, this was a great opportunity to talk about how that is developing and our wider work with large animals.

Day one saw the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service animal rescue lead Jane Ogilvie and Ross Campbell, attend with their horse mannequin and carry out well attended demonstrations of techniques using the Resquip large animal response bag and glide sheets.

On day two we had Nick Brennan, a watch manager with Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service and founder of the Skylar project. Nick has been looking at developing a first aid kit for small animals, with help from both BARTA and Resquip.

With plenty of new kit on display and over 1600 attendees, both Teri and Neil had a great few days promoting both BARTA and Resquip.
