The ACA Regional Groups are called BRANCHES and provide the local support for members. All groups are run by an elected volunteer committee of local members. The activity programmes of the groups are varied, covering a mixture of clinical and professional issues and study days combined with social activities and provide and excellent opportunity for networking.

Encouraging New Members

The ACA is a membership organisation, reliant on its members to ensure it remains an independent association that is able to fulfil its main remit to provide continence education to health professionals. The promotion of new members via the branches is vital if we are to remain a dynamic association. If any branches require support in recruiting new members or if they identify potential difficulties in recruitment please contact Val Ward, membership officer of the ACA at Val.Ward@liverpoolpct.nhs.uk.

Lapsed Membership

The ACA's strategy for increasing membership requires us to monitor lapsed members and to encourage them to continue their membership. If all Branches could monitor their lapsed members and encourage them to renew their membership that would help the ACA to remain a strong association. If any branches identify reasons why members leave, it would be very helpful if they alert Fitwise at Tel: +44 (0) 1506 811077; Email: aca@fitwise.co.uk
