Nominating Fellows

Any Member of the Society can nominate another Member for a Fellowship providing the nominee meets the eligibility criteria above. The nominator’s proposal should be supported by two further Members and either the nominator or at least one of the supporters must be a Fellow.

Read the guidelines for Fellowship nominations

Anyone nominating a Member for a Fellowship is asked to complete the nomination form and provide a supporting statement. The supporting statement should cover the specific reasons why they think the individual is deserving of a Fellowship. The nominator may also wish to provide an additional supporting statement from a non-member of the Society, such as colleagues in other professions, if they feel this will add weight to the nomination. The panel of Fellows can normally only make their decision on the evidence submitted as part of the nomination process.
