How the BDA Supports Dietitians

The BDA supports its members by:

• Involving members in a nationwide network of regional BDA Branches which hold regular meetings and events.
  
  
• Encouraging the development of Specialist Groups.
  
  
• Organising an annual study conference.
  
  
• Awarding bursaries and grants to members and student members from BDA trusts, and organising industry sponsored awards and prizes.
  
  
• Providing the medium through which dietitians can maintain links with their peers in a dispersed profession.
  
  
• Coordinating pre-registration training for student dietitians, endorsed by the Health Professions Council.
