Call for BOPA subcommittee members

Dear BOPA members
We are seeking enthusiastic members to join a number of our subcommittees.  Joining a sub-committee is a great opportunity to work with individuals from around the country to progress the oncology pharmacy profession. Time commitment is variable but we estimate a commitment of around 2 hours a month.  All meetings will be via teleconference and any face to face meetings will be optional with travel and accommodation reimbursable.  We are aiming for all our sub-committees to have a technician representative and will also offer a new to oncology “shadowing” position.  This position for new to oncology will be to participate in teleconferences and work with the chairs to learn about the subcommittee, structure and vision; further project participation is optional.  Within BOPA we want to ensure that we are meeting the needs of technician members especially as the roles are variable and evolving.  If you are technician or know a technician that would like to join a subcommittee please get in touch!

Subcommittees in need of members are:

Education and Training
Pharmacist committee members
Technician committee members
New to Oncology

Audit and Research

Community Pharmacy

If you are interested in joining any of our subcommittees please contact us using the contact us page on the BOPA website here: https://www.bopa.org.uk/contact/  (Subject – other)

Kind Regards

The BOPA Committee
