Fellows and Past Presidents
Fellows
The award of Fellowship is an award for Distinguished service to the GSV over a lengthy period of time.
Nominees for election as Fellows must have been financial members of the GSV for a minimum of ten years and must, in the opinion of the Fellowship Committee and the Council, have rendered extensive and distinguished service to the GSV. Such distinguished service may be in respect of:
- Pursuit of one or more of the Purposes of the GSV, as shown in the GSV's Statement of Purposes (Rule 2)
and - Service as a member of Council or as a member of one of the GSV’s other committees or equivalent, for a minimum of five years and, in that capacity have rendered extensive and distinguished service in the development and management of GSV activities.
Although reliance is often placed on Councillors and Staff having close contact with members deserving of recognition to provide nominations, other members are reminded that they are eligible to consider appropriate colleagues for an award. Details are available in the Members Area of the GSV website or can be obtained from the GSV Secretary.
The following is a list of those who have been honoured as a Fellow.
