President’s Blog

However, we do need you all to cast your votes!

Read each candidate’s profile and choose who you feel would represent you the best. We have people from all different parts of the audiology sector standing, so we could have a wonderfully diverse Board. Voting is easy – you were sent an email on Friday 11^th which gives you access to all the details/ Select the names of the candidates you want (up to six), and then submit. Voting closes at midnight on 2^nd October, so don’t miss the deadline, every vote matters, this is your Board.

The successful Board Directors will be announced at the AGM at conference.

With up to six new Board Directors starting in November, it may feel like there is downtime on Board to get through the onboarding process. However, the outgoing Directors have their handover notes ready, and we expect the new starters up and ready, working for you before Christmas. At the first Board meeting in January, we set everyone’s work packages and priorities for the year.

We always welcome members views on what we should be focussing our efforts on. We will soon be sending out a survey to everyone to allow you to share your views on what BAA does and how we may represent you, and the profession effectively. Again, please do try and spend some time completing this and help shape our 2027.

So sorry but not sorry for adding to your inbox – but having your say on who represents you and directing the work BAA does is part of the value of your membership.

I hope to see a lot of you in Liverpool in October, for my last conference as President.
