Meet your new Council members 2024

Following our 2023 elections, we're delighted to have Dr Jon Chambers, Dr Paul Southall, Dr Sophie Jackman and Dr David Unwin join our Council as new members.

Following our 2023 elections, we're delighted to have Dr Jon Chambers, Dr Paul Southall and Dr Sophie Jackman join our Council as consultant and anaesthetist in training members.

Dr Sarah Ramsay and Dr Matt Tuck have been re-elected for a second term as consultant and anaesthetist in training members respectively.

Dr David Urwin will be joining Council as a co-opted anaesthetist in training member, covering one of our trainee members who is on maternity leave.

We asked Jon, Paul, Sophie and David why they decided to stand for election – and more.

New places in Council will ensure that anaesthetists at all stages of their career are fully involved with and represented by the RCoA

Why train to be an examiner?

Dr Jason Walker is a consultant anaesthetist working in the district general hospital Ysbyty Gwynedd in Wales - here he discusses what led him to want to become a FRCA examiner.

An extraordinary tutor

Drs Whittingham and Lee tell us why they nominated their College tutor, Dr Minich for a College Honour Award and why they were pleased he received a President's Commendation.

These colleagues are easily recognised and often appreciated but, with the merry-go-round of training and rotational placements, attaining formal acknowledgement of their work can be overlooked. 

We recently took steps to nominate our College tutor and were delighted when he received a President’s Commendation from our College.

Several years ago, Dr Minich took over the school-wide final FRCA teaching programme. With his dedication and blindingly structured approach, it quickly became clear that we were fortunate to have an excellent educator in our midst. To say we all benefited from the provision of exam-practice resources and Dr Minich’s efforts coordinating hours of SOE practice feels like an understatement; it simply does not portray the level of help and support Dr Minich provided to the trainee body preparing for the exams.

RCoA and NIHR Research Awards 2019
