Information day for RCVS and VN Councils nominees

On Tuesday, 15 January we will be holding a 'Meet the RCVS Day' for those standing, or considering standing, for election to RCVS Council or the Veterinary Nurses Council.

If you’re thinking of standing for Council, but want to know a little more about what the role of a Council member involves, and what would be expected of you if elected, then this is your chance to find out.

The meeting, which starts at 10:30am, will give candidates and prospective candidates the opportunity to meet the College Officers and senior staff, and find out what goes on behind the scenes, with plenty of time for questions.

Lunch and refreshments will be provided, and the meeting will finish at approximately 3:30pm.

For further information, and to book your place, please contact Fiona Harcourt, Communications Officer, on [email protected] or 020 7202 0773.

Nomination forms for RCVS Council and Veterinary Nurses Council, full instructions and guidance notes are available. 

Council and VN Council members will be expected to spend at least six to eight days a year attending Council and Committee meetings, working parties and subcommittees (for which a loss-of-earnings allowance is available). 

The deadline for nominations is 5pm on 31 January 2013.
