AZEVN Committee

Our Committee

The AZEVN is led by an elected committee of volunteer Registered Veterinary Nurses (RVNs) who are committed to supporting and representing the profession. The committee works collaboratively to guide the direction, governance, and activities of AZEVN in line with its aims and values.

Committee officers are elected through a transparent process, as set out in the AZEVN Constitution. Each role carries specific responsibilities to ensure the effective and ethical running of the association, and all committee members are expected to act professionally, respectfully, and in the best interests of the wider AZEVN community. These expectations are outlined in the AZEVN Committee & Volunteer Code of Conduct, which all committee members agree to uphold.
