Steering Group

In 2024, as part of the governance structure of the BPNG, the steering group was re-established to lend support and direction to the executive committee. The steering group membership is drawn from the wider communities of individuals or organisations with an interest in pharmaceutical nutrition research, education or produce development. We meet twice a year, once in person and then again virtually. The meeting agenda is focussed on BPNG priorities and education agendas, and how we can form collaborative working relations to support the training and development of the nutrition pharmacist.
