BVNA Council Elections 2012

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

Voting closes on 30th April 2012

The British Veterinary Nursing Association (BVNA) would like to remind all full members of the Association 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.

Commenting on the nomination process, Claire Fraser, President of the BVNA, said “The BVNA Council is committed to driving the Association forward but this can only be done with representatives who are fully committed to representing the BVNA and its members. Your background is less important than your ability to offer a real commitment to the Association and your fellow members. There is certainly a significant time commitment, but it is a very rewarding and enjoyable experience and it is seen as a way of giving something back to a profession that we are all passionate about. It is also an opportunity to meet other veterinary nurses from a wide range of backgrounds, to share thoughts and ideas on both a political front and from a clinical perspective. I would urge anyone with an interest in the future of our profession and our Association to stand as a BVNA Council Member.”

Any BVNA member, falling under the category ‘Qualified VN/RVN/EVN’, can nominate themselves. Full details on the postal voting system are available via the BVNA website www.bvna.org.uk
