RCVS announces Fellowship Board election results
The roles will be handed over on 11 November at the RCVS Fellowship Day.
Dr Chris Tufnell to become Chair.

The Fellows of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) has voted for the new members of the Fellowship Board.

Responsible for governing the learned society, the Board must ensure that the Fellowship meets its aims.

Dr Chris Tufnell FRCVS has been elected as the Chair of the Board, while Professor Anna Meredith FRCVS has been elected as Chair of the Fellowship Science Advisory Panel, and Dr Emma Milne FRCVS has been elected as Fellowships Projects and Engagement officer. 

Professor John Innes, current Chair of the Fellowship Board, commented on the election results: “Congratulations to all three successful candidates who stood in the Fellowship Board elections this year. I very much look forward to working with them all, however briefly, and I am sure the rest of the Board share that sentiment. 

“I would like to thank all the candidates for standing for election; the Fellowship was fortunate to have the choice of excellent candidates.”

As Chair, Dr Tufnell will be responsible for leading the board. Professor Meredith will oversee the Fellowship Science Advisory Panel, which is responsible for providing scientific advice to the Fellowship and profession.

Dr Milne will oversee activities contributing to delivering the Fellowship's wider objectives. Heading up outreach activities will also be a key part of Dr Milne's position.

Professor Innes added: “It is certainly a very healthy sign that members of the Fellowship wish to volunteer to work to promote the Fellowship and what it stands for. 

“We had a 53% election turnout which is an encouraging level of engagement. Thank you to all who took the time to vote.”

Information on the Fellowship Board and Science Advisory Panel's role can be accessed on the RCVS website.
