Attached to this email are nomination notices inviting nominations for the position of President, Secretary and Treasurer. Nominations must be handled through each affiliated State Association and received by the ANHCA secretary (anhcasecretary@gmail.com) by 23 December, 2022.
Each year all office bearer roles are open to nominations, however, it must be noted that James Rhodes, our Nationals Treasurer, will be stepping down and we are looking to fill his role at the AGM.
