BVNA Council Elections 2013

Have your say on who’s representing YOUR Association and nominate someone today!

The British Veterinary Nursing Association (BVNA) is calling on all its full members to consider standing for election onto BVNA Council.

Important attributes for candidates are a strong commitment to promoting the ideals of the BVNA as well as the veterinary nursing profession in general and a willingness to devote time and effort to representing their fellow members.

If necessary a member of BVNA Council will second your nomination. In the event of a second nomination being received for the same nominee, this will be accepted as also having seconded the initial nomination.

PLEASE NOTE – As laid down in the Memorandum and Articles of Association:

Only those who are Category “A” or Honorary RVN/REVN/VN/EVN BVNA Members at the time of nomination may have their names submitted for consideration. Category “A” members are those who pay FULL Membership rate and are qualified veterinary nurses (RVN/VN/EVNs). Honorary Members who are also RVN/VN/EVNs are eligible for nomination; however, Honorary Associate Members (non RVN/REVN/VN/EVN) are excluded as stated in the Constitution.

Only RVN/VN/EVN members (Category “A” or Honorary) may propose a nominee.

Nominees will be contacted to confirm their willingness to stand for election and will be asked to submit a brief manifesto and a passport sized photo. The list of nominees, their manifestos and photos will be published in the September issue of the VNJ and the results will be announced and ratified at the Annual General Meeting on Sunday 13 October 2013 at Telford International Centre, Telford, Shropshire.

ALL FORMS MUST BE RECEIVED NO LATER THAN 30TH APRIL 2013 (AS POSTMARK)
