Meetings
This years Autumn Meeting is taking place at Chesford Grange, Kenilworth on Friday 8th and Saturday 9th November.
This year’s theme is congenital heart disease and arrhythmias and we are delighted to announce an action packed, star-studded programme! World-renowned expert speakers including Professor Brian Scansen from Colorado State University, Birmingham Children Hospital’s lead paediatric cardiologist Dr Chetan Metha, arrhythmia experts Brigite Pedro and Ruth Willis updating us on managing atrial fibrillation and ventricular arrhythmias, Ingrid Vernemmen from Ghent University providing insights on equine interventional cardiology, Fabio Sarcinella will update us on atrial septostomy as treatment for MVD, as well as all the research abstracts, case reports and thought- provoking discussions that the VCS meetings are well known for.
We are also excited to be running a separate nurse stream on Friday 8th morning as our nurse member numbers continue to grow. This stream will be face-to-face only and not recorded. Nurses and allied professionals will be able to select to attend this morning session in isolation, or join for the full conference which includes access to the nurses stream.
All those registered for the main conference will have access to the recorded main programme content, for the days they are registered for, which is released several weeks after the event. Please note the event will not be live-streamed- purchasing an on-line access ticket will give access to recordings once they have been finalised.
As ever, there will be plenty of time to catch up with friends and colleagues and make new connections.

Our Friday evening gala dinner is open to all those attending and partners/family. This will be a sit-down 3-course meal and selected beverages, followed by live music, competitive events and some other surprises!
