Following the recent elections, there have been significant changes to BSGE Council portfolios. Announcing the alterations, BSGE President Sanjay Vyas said:
‘These were made necessary following the results of the recent elections, and the officers also used this as an opportunity to look at the portfolios to ensure that they remain relevant and fit for purpose.’Â
| BSGE Council portfolio | Led by |
| Awards & Bursaries | Mr Kirana Arambage |
| Website & Digital governance | Mr Fevzi Shakir |
| Laparoscopic Training | Dr Donna Ghosh |
| Hysteroscopy | Dr Natasha Waters |
| Editor of Scope and Membership relations | Mr Funlayo Odejinmi |
| Industry Relations & Meetings | Mr Chris Guyer |
| Patient Information and Guidelines | Mr Tom Walker-Smith |
| Endometriosis Centres | Mr Arvind Vashisht |
| Nurse & Paramedic | Ms Wendy-Rae Mitchell |
| Trainee representative | Dr James McLaren |
| Trainee representative | Dr Angharad Jones |
Each portfolio is led by a member of Council, and supported by a sub-committee. As a result of this reorganisation, some sub-committees will be disbanded and others will need to be formed. The Society  will be communicating with members in the near future to ask for applications for these new sub-committees.
This is an exciting development for the Society and Sanjay encouraged members to apply to join a sub-committee and also to engage with the Council saying:
‘This is an experienced and dynamic team, which will ensure that the BSGE continues to flourish. Pease feel free to contact them via bsge@rcog.org.uk on any matters that relate to their areas of responsibility’.
