Nominations open for SOS Fracture Alliance Governing Committee 2024-2027

To SOSFA Member Organisations,

As Returning Officer for the SOS Fracture Alliance Governing Committee, I am writing to seek your nominations of candidates to stand for election for the six positions on 2024-2027 SOS Fracture Alliance Governing Committee.

Member engagement is critical to the success of SOS Fracture Alliance, and the Committee relies upon your recommendations for strong candidates.

Only SOS Fracture Alliance Member Organisations may submit nominations and each Member Organisation may only submit one nomination. Nominees must have a formal relationship with the Member Organisation, e.g. they are an individual membership of the Member Organisation. Current incumbents of the Governing Committee are eligible for re-election as representatives should Member Organisations wish to re-nominate them.

Nominees will be requested to supply headshot and a formal candidate statement of no more than 250 words outlining their qualifications and interests for serving on the SOS Fracture Alliance Governing Committee.

Nominations must be received by 5:00 p.m. AEST Friday, the 31st of May 2024. They should be sent to this email address (james.ansell[at]sosfracturealliance.org.au).

If more than six nominations are received, an election ballot will be circulated to Member Organisations institutions in late June 2024 and will run until late July 2024 as per the SOS Fracture Alliance Constitution.

Thank you for your participation in this important process, which is an essential part of our operations as an Alliance to improve secondary fracture prevention in Australia.

For ease of reference I have included below a copy of the SOSFA Constitution which outlines the composition and responsibilities of the Governing Committee.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me at the above email.

With kind regards,

James Ansell
