The Annual Report and Accounts for the financial year ended 30 June 2024 (the "Annual Report"), the Notice of AGM and proxy form were sent on 21 October 2024 to those shareholders who have requested hard copies.  Shareholders who have elected to receive shareholder information electronically have been notified that the Annual Report and Notice of AGM are available on the Company's website at: https://www.cvsukltd.co.uk/investor-centre, and the forms of proxy are available to shareholders on request by contacting company.secretary@cvsvets.com.
