Become a Trade Union Representative

In order to operate effectively as your Union, we rely on member volunteers to give their time and effort to become a Trade Union Representative.  This vital network of Union representatives receive BDA expert training to be able to help and support you; their dietetic colleagues, correctly in the workplace.

Meet our Volunteers

We showcase and highlight the range of volunteer roles and activities our members undertake, and say thank you for the fantastic contribution they make to advancing the profession in our monthly Volunteer Corner section of the official BDA member magazine Dietetics Today.
