Association for Nutrition

Who we are

The Association for Nutrition is the voluntary register for qualified nutritionists. We seek to protect and benefit the public by defining and promoting standards of evidence-based nutrition practice, and supporting knowledge at all levels of the workforce. We maintain the UK Voluntary Register of Nutritionists (UKVRN), an independent, competency-based register of individuals who are qualified and competent in nutrition science and practice, and agree to uphold professional and ethical standards through a comprehensive code of conduct. Individuals who meet the standards required can join the register, and show a commitment to professionalism and protecting to public from poor/non-evidence-based nutrition information.

Our culture and values

We are a transparent, approachable and fair regulator, acting with integrity to protect the public.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

We are committed to equality, diversity, equity and inclusion, both as an employer and in the standards expected of our registrants and quality assured training.
