Have your say on who represents you
BVNA president Kirstie Shield encourages motivated nurses to consider running for council.
The BVNA is calling for veterinary nurses to have their say on who represents them by standing for election to the council or nominating a willing candidate.
President of the BVNA Kirstie Shield said: "BVNA's success depends on a strong council team, as well as our fantastic team of regional coordinators.
"We're looking for professional and motivated veterinary nurses who enjoy getting involved in current issues and can provide a strong commitment to promoting the ideals of the BVNA and the veterinary nursing profession.
"As the only representative association for veterinary nurses in the UK, BVNA Council work for, and on behalf of our members. Come and join us to be part of the contribution towards the future of our profession!"
Both full and student members of the BVNA may stand for election on the council. All nominees will be contacted to ensure they are willing to stand and will be asked to submit a passport-sized photo and brief manifesto.
A list of nominees, their photos and manifestos will be published in the Veterinary Nursing Journal in September and the successful candidates will be announced at the Annual General Meeting on Sunday, October 14 at the Telford International Centre.
Nomination forms can be found on the BVNA website and emailed to bvna@bvna.co.uk when completed. All forms must be received by no later than April 30.
FIVP has shared a survey, inviting those working in independent practice to share their views on the CMA's proposed remedies.
