Full Individual Membership

Most BAPEN members hold their membership because they are members of one of the BAPEN ‘Founder’ organisations. These are

 

• British Pharmaceutical Nutrition Group (BPNG)

• Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition Group of the British Dietetic Association (PEN Group)

• National Nurses’ Nutrition Group (NNNG)

• Patients on Intravenous and Nasogastric Nutrition Therapy (PINNT)

• BAPEN Medical

However, there are many professionals who may want to join BAPEN without being members of any of these groups. The category of Full Individual Membership has always existed for this purpose.

 

BAPEN needs new members to bring in new ideas and viewpoints and we are delighted to encourage this regardless of how they become members. At present we particularly want to support individual professionals in joining us and we have underpinned this by making the category rather more attractive than it has been up until now. There is, of course, nothing to stop members of Founder Organisations becoming full individual members of BAPEN as well – as indeed several people already are!

 

The benefits of becoming a Full Individual Member are outlined below for your information. Please do not hesitate to get in touch with either the BAPEN Office or Dr Ailsa Brotherton, Hon Secretary, if you have any queries.
