The British Veterinary Nursing Association (BVNA) Council has recently approved its incoming officers for the 2026/7 term. The incoming officer team will be presented to the BVNA Annual General Meeting (AGM) for ratification during BVNA Congress, on Saturday 10th October 2026.
The BVNA officer team for the 2026/7 term will be as follows:
- Steph Worsley RVN – President
- Sarah Holliday RVN – Senior Vice President
- Hamish Morrin RVN – Junior Vice President
- Declan Jones RVN – Chair of Membership Committee
- Macauly Gatenby RVN – Chair of Congress and Events Committee
BVNA President Sarah Holliday commented: “BVNA is delighted to announce the incoming officer team for 2026/7, who will be instrumental in ensuring BVNA continues to deliver a strong voice on behalf of the veterinary nursing profession. The officer team is made up of dedicated veterinary nurses who have willingly taken on a more senior role within BVNA Council, committing to additional time and responsibility to support BVNA. It is a privilege to work alongside all the passionate RVNs and SVNs who sit on BVNA Council, and who volunteer their time to wholeheartedly champion the veterinary nursing profession.
“As we welcome a new officer team, I would also like to recognise the significant contributions made by current officers, Senior Vice President Lyndsay Hughes and Honorary Secretary Nikki McLeod, whose terms come to an end in October. Their impact on BVNA, and on veterinary nursing, will be felt for a long time to come.”
BVNA also recently called for applications from its members to join BVNA Council. Successful candidates will be announced following the next BVNA Council meeting in July.
