BBA Membership
Professional members:
Health care professionals (including Medical, Nursing, Allied Health Professionals, and scientific investigators) and non-medical workers actively engaged by reason of their employment in some aspect of the care of the burnt patient.
As a Professional member you are entitled to receive all mailings, notices and other information issues and have access to the website. You will also have full voting rights (general entitlements), and may be nominated to sit on the Executive Committee.
Overseas Members:
Persons who would be eligible for professional membership but who reside and work overseas for more than fifty percent of the year.
As an Overseas Member you are entitled to all general entitlements and may vote on Association matters at the Annual General Meeting. However, you cannot be nominated for election to the Executive Committee.
Associate members:
The Association recognises the large amount of work done on behalf of burn survivors and in the work of burn prevention by other charities and philanthropic groups. Associate membership is therefore open to such at the discretion of the Executive Committee.
As an Associate member you are entitled to all general entitlements. However, you may not vote on formal Association business or be elected onto the Executive Committee. Associate members may be invited to serve in a voluntary capacity on Association sub-committees where their particular experience may be of value and may be co-opted onto the Executive Committee on a similar basis but may not vote in either capacity.
Honorary members:
Honorary membership of the Association may be awarded by the Executive Committee of the association to persons who:
i. have demonstrated outstanding service to burned patients in accordance with the aims of the Association. Nominations may be made for this membership category by at least two members of the Association. Names may be forwarded to the Executive committee, which will then present its decision for ratification by the Annual General Meeting.
ii. have by invitation given the annual Wallace Memorial Lecture.
Members in this category will no longer be required to pay a subscription but are entitled to all general entitlements and may vote on Association matters but may not be nominated for election to the Executive Committee.
