The Nominations and Awards Group (NAG) meets annually to:

• assess applications for BVA committees and make recommendations for endorsement by Council and Board
• agree proposals for Honorary Associates, Honorary Members, and Life Members for endorsement at the AGM
• review the shortlist and agree on a preferred candidate for:
• BVA Outstanding Service Award (Chiron Award)
• BVA Animal Health and Welfare Overseas Award (J.Trevor Blackburn Award)

In line with our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion policy, NAG carries out a blind assessment against a skills matrix for all applications for BVA committee vacancies. Vacancies for Policy Committee, Ethics and Welfare Advisory Panel, Members Benefits and Events Committee are advertised annually in June.
