For the interest of everyone involved, the London Vet Show does not encourage delegates to bring their children. However the London Vet Show also acknowledges that sometimes this will need to be the case to look after the best interests of both the child and the parent. If the delegate would like to bring the newborn or toddler to the show, it will be fine to be in the halls in a harness or pram.

There is a general family room onsite at the venue which is available to all located within the London Vet Show. Please ask at the Info Point for directions or look on the floor plan We also ask for any parents planning to bring their children to the show to fill in the form below in advance so we can make sure we can make sure that we can cover the health and safety paperwork for bringing kids into this environment.
