We are CAMpaigning to save Complementary & Alternative Veterinary Medicine 
Because in November 2017 the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) Council issued this 
statement banning vets from using complementary and alternative medicine as a first-choice treatment for our animals.​

​2nd NOVEMBER 2018
THE RESPONSE TO THE RCVS WAS DELIVERED

After a huge amount of investigation and due diligence from the CAM4animals team, the response to the RCVS has now been delivered on the anniversary of the statement change. We look forward to continued communication with the RCVS on this matter following many anomalies in their evidence being brought to light. 
A BIG THANK YOU goes out to all the volunteers who, over the past few months have given large amounts of their time and talents in order to put the response together.
 
Please continue to write to the RCVS with your own questions regarding the CAM treatments you use, join us on social media, and keep spreading the word.

DONATE TO HELP OUR CAMPAIGN

​The RCVS statement means:
  • Our freedom of choice as animal guardians has been compromised
  • Homeopathy is leading this campaign but all Complementary and Alternative Medicines (CAM) are affected
  • ​Farmers will be forced to use antibiotics before proven alternatives like homeopathy. This is a major concern for organic farmers and may reduce our access to organic food.
  • There is a serious threat to the fight against antibiotic resistance
  • Our homeopathic and holistic vets are having their livelihoods threatened
  • RCVS Council is failing to recognise the evidence that CAM therapies work
We are calling for:
  • A full retraction of the statement on CAM
  • An acknowledgement that animal guardians have the right to choose homeopathy and CAM as the primary treatment approach
  • An open and honest debate about what natural medicine can do for animal health
​We are concerned that: (CAM)
  • RCVS Council has stepped outside of its remit and Royal Charter. The RCVS is there to regulate the profession and NOT to stop its members from making qualified, clinical decisions.
  • RCVS Council statement was influenced by certain Council members who are supported and associated with a network of organisations committed to discredit all CAM practitioners.
  • There was no consultation with the experts of veterinary homeopathic medicine, the British Association for Homeopathic Veterinary Surgeons (BAHVS)​​.
Who are we?
We are a group of concerned animal guardians and professionals who feel strongly that any threat to our freedom of choice for our animals must be contested. We support the British Association for Homeopathic Veterinary Surgeons (BAHVS) official campaign to retract the RCVS statement.
What is CAM?
​The term 'Complementary and Alternative Medicines' include, but are not limited, to:
  • Hydrotherapy
  • Physiotherapy
  • Acupuncture
  • Chiropractic
  • Herbal Remedies
  • Homeopathy
  • Massage Therapies, e.g. Bowen, Galen Myotherapy
(Raw feeding & supplements are also at risk)

Under the RCVS Council statement, these therapies will only be acceptable if they are used in conjunction with, or after conventional treatments. 

​We have repeatedly asked the RCVS to clarify what it means by 'conventional' treatments but have so far not received a response.
