Recent Graduate and Student Support

The recent graduate team is a dedicated group that has been set up within the SPVS with the specific task of dealing with the issues that affect students and the more recently qualified members of the profession.

Telephone Support
This is operated by experienced practitioners who are sympathetic to the needs of the recent graduate but have the knowledge to advise them on issues such as employment contracts and professional matters or just give support at difficult times.
For access to this service please contact the SPVS office on 01926 840318 or email office@spvs.org.uk
