Popular television presenter Matt Baker, from The One Show and Countryfile, will host the Ceva Animal Welfare Awards for the third consecutive year.

He’ll host alongside head judge Chris Laurence MBE FRCVS, a retired veterinary surgeon who puts his name to the Vet of the Year award.

The awards ceremony celebrates the achievements of those who improve animal health and welfare. R.A.B.I and Farmers Guardian are supporting the Farmer of the Year award, which recognises the commitment of farmers who provide and encourage a high standard of animal welfare on their farm.

Do you know someone who has gone above and beyond to improve animal welfare? Nominate them for an award on the Ceva Awards website. Nominations close on December 31, with finalists being announced in February. Winners will be revealed in April at an awards ceremony in Birmingham.
