A changing of the guard at Dietitians NZ. 💚
At conference, we had the opportunity to acknowledge Tracy Browne and thank her for the leadership, time and commitment she has given to Dietitians NZ as Chair. Tracy has been such an important part of our organisation, and we’re incredibly grateful for everything she has contributed to Council and to the profession.
We’d also like to acknowledge Helen Gibbs and Alyanna Suerte Felipe for their contribution to Council. Thank you both for the time, insight and support you have given to Dietitians NZ.
As we look ahead, we’re delighted to welcome Frances Arenhold as our new Chair, alongside our two new Council members, Katrina Dixon and Jamila Chen (陳). We’re excited to have their experience and perspectives around the table as we move into the next chapter for Dietitians NZ.
Strong professional organisations rely on people being willing to step up, contribute and help shape what comes next. We’re so grateful to those who give their time to support Dietitians NZ - and we’d love to see more of our community put their hand up and get involved in the future.
If that could be you, keep an eye out for future opportunities to contribute. 💚
Thank you, Tracy, for everything you’ve contributed to Dietitians NZ, and welcome Frances, Katrina, Jamila and our new Council.
