Volunteering offers members the opportunity to shape the College’s direction and priorities, influence policy and strategy, enhance standards, and give back to the profession. The College could not function without our members taking on these vitally important roles.

'Having been supporting regional council members for over 10 years, it has become clear that regional roles have been paramount to ensuring a regional and local perspective.

Members’ voices are invaluable in supporting the College’s mission and objectives, supporting the future of the profession and excellence in patient care, ensuring pathology is included at the forefront of the healthcare agenda

Over the years, I have had the pleasure of working with and hearing from inspirational members, who have tirelessly worked with the College providing a voice members, and the profession, and have been integral to shaping the work of the College.'    Jessica Zago, Governance and Committee Services Officer
